Thread Name: What is wrong with poor Mariah Carey?
Subject: RE: What is wrong with poor Mariah Carey?
She's a damn good singer. Trouble is, either (a) she's a lousy songwriter, or (b) she has lousy songwriters, which puts her in the "interchangeable pop fluff" category. Music Box had precisely one good song on it, "Without You", and that was a cover. If she can't recognise crap songs, she shouldn't be too surprised when she slides off the charts. Or she can be surprised, but I won't have too much sympathy.
