Nope.

I would consider pushing Charmbracelet above Debut, but Emancipation doesn't have a single song as bad as Obsessed, so it automatically gets priority over Memoirs.

Not the bling, music.

True, I mean look which album was the best selling. Truly tragic.

Music Box (1,500,000) [#1]
The Emancipation of Mimi (621,000) [#7]
Daydream (600,000) [#1]
Emotions (300,000) [#4]
Mariah Carey (300,000) [#6]
Rainbow (300,000) [#8]
Butterfly (200,000) [#2]
E=MC2 (137,000) [#3]
Charmbracelet (122,000) [#52]
Merry Christmas (100,000) [#32]
Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel (80,000) [#23]
Glitter (60,000) [#10]
Me. I Am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse (?) [#14]
Merry Christmas II You (?) [#101]

Oops, looks like there were several albums that charted lower than Memoirs. Anyway, despite the trash at the top position, at least the UK appreciated Emotions.

Eye would really like to know where you got an edition without Your Girl, To the Floor and Get Your Number from.

Oh look, last year I was the one trashing Music Box and you were trying to somewhat defend it. How the tables would have turned, had I actually come around to it.

All those songs are decent and better than Obsessed. Even the UK bonus track "Sprung" is better.

Music Box was cute when I was new to Mariah, but it's an album that sold well simply because it was the closest Mariah has gotten to serving Celine teas on an album. The lead single "Dreamlover" remains Mariah's most forgettable lead single (like, wow I'm impressed by how much I struggle to remember what it sounds like despite listening to it many times).

Both of these can be - and both of these are - correct at the same time.

anigif_original-grid-image-4101-14695487

Anyway, glad my fave is not a fad and can still release some of her best work ~20 years into her career <3

20 years into her career hmm now I'm not a math genius but that would be somewhere between 2009-2010. so you agree? Memoirs is her best work? Well I always say, it's never too late to find god..

Well, its highlights (Betcha Gon' Know, H.A.T.E.U., Ribbon, It's a Wrap among others) are definitely some of her highest ever and as a body of work she's a cute girl, so yeah, one of her best overall.

Mariah debuted in 1990, so 20 years into her career would be 2010. That was the year that... Merry Christmas II You was released... moo6
@Vilppu sis you better not be referring to THAT album. A damn mess if you are though.

What? Are you, @Hellline, implying that Mary Xmas 3 U isn't the best Christmas album ever and you don't pop your bussy to Auld Lang Hymn?

anigif_original-grid-image-4101-14695487

And to be fair, one of Moo's first recordings, Weakness of the Body, dates back to 1985(86?) and going by that, her best work would be Emancipation. Yikes, I would never drag her disco like that.

I just thought you were being a contrarian for the sake of being contrary. Like how you are 85% of the time.

you have no idea how much I've wanted to hear that during the megarate days, "To Lambs-Lets End This once and for all" Thread can rest in peace. And surprised by your impeccable taste yet again, those tracks, among others ofcourse, are truly the best on Memoirs.  To me, Memoirs is up there with Butterfly and MIAM in terms of the album's themes and concepts. all the other albums in her discography can't relate...

she was signeT to her label in 1989 so we can argue her career began then... but why argue when you can just agrih Memoirs is one of hert best and we'd all be happy.
