Pausing for change


One really wishes it were warm enough to wear such a cute outfit but it's below freezing today so I'm playing a few of my Mariah Carey cds while waiting for this internet to get changed over fired up with porridge and hot tea this morning.


The stunning, possibly overproduced debut with Vision Of Love saw Columbia's new signing going for the Whitney Houston market.

By one more studio album and a very impressive MTV Unplugged tv special concert, Mariah found a way to make her records, well more the records she wanted to make with Swingbeat influenced Dreamlover and the epic Hero. 

1995's Daydream saw more of the same even bringing in hip hop beats  but her voice towered over all of that so it wasn't modern R&B lite and her collaboration with Boys II Men on One Sweet Day was amazing.

Hopefully we'll be back on air soon...
