Hello, fam. For my Top 10 Series, I’m going to be talking about one of my favorite artists of all time. Today, I decided that I want to talk about an artist who’s made an impact to the world of music. And the artist in question is Mariah Carey. She almost never fails to disappoint me with her music. Almost every single she has released has wowed me from the beginning. With that in mind, I will now share you a list of my favorite songs from Mariah Carey and a brief description about all of them. Are you ready? Here it is:
10. I Don’t Wanna Cry (1991)
A sad, romantic love song. I love the production in this one, and Mariah sounds great. Not too much else I can say about it.
9. Dreamlover (1993)
An upbeat love song that I’m sure people can relate to. As the title says, it talks about her wanting to find her dream lover.
8. Emotions (1991)
This song really brings out her emotions. Okay, that was a bad one. Anyway, it’s just an upbeat dance song that grabs my attention. And my goodness! Can she hit those high notes?! Yeah, I love this, like a lot.
7. Fantasy (1995)
Another love song, but this time it talks about a relationship being a fantasy hence the song title. Once again, Mariah’s sounds amazing. Do I need to say anymore?
6. Always Be My Baby (1996)
The “do-do-do”‘s throughout the song really grabbed my attention, and I love the use of guitars. The production is what I love most about the song, and again Mariah’s voice is just beautiful. And the amazing key change helps.
5. We Belong Together (2005)
The comeback single from Mariah will always have a special place for me. I love how the song opens with a little piano work, and from there the rest is history in this near-flawless comeback single.
4. Vision Of Love (1990)
The song that started it all for her. She definitely made a great first impression here. I love her voice and the production is awesome. Since then, her career would began take off.
3. All I Want For Christmas Is You (1994)
Easily the best song for the holidays, hands down. It’s basically an upbeat song that can get you dancing for the holidays, whether it be with family or friends that you spend time with.
2. Hero (1993)
A powerful piano ballad. Mariah sounds amazing as always and I love the lyrics. Basically, it talks about wanting a hero to come along and help you. The production is fantastic, especially with the piano work.
1. One Sweet Day (featuring Boyz II Men) (1995)
Ah yes. This is, without a doubt, Mariah Carey’s best song. It still holds the record of #1 for 16 Weeks on Billboard (and is now tied with a certain song I won’t mention). It is a masterpiece. I love how their vocals blend together. And as always, Mariah shines all throughout the song. It’s a sad, but very sweet song at the same time.
And there you go, everyone. These are my favorite songs from Mariah Carey! Let me know what you guys think of my list in the comments section. I hope you guys enjoyed reading this! Stay frosty!
