"These other people that like didn't necessarily write their other songs, they could pick them really easy." - Queen of unintentional shade 😂

[musicboxera]

10% Picking a song
90% bragging how she wrote the songs
What a queen

[juliangomez]

Truly picking one or the other is really hard when you really know these songs. All her catalogue is unparalleled.

The roof IS ICONIC I can’t wait to see what Mariah Carey does with it

[subliminalstealthhh]

The fact she gave recognition to melt away is enough for me to survive this world

[artgroupie]

“Which I wrote… I also wrote..I wrote them all….they don’t write..” I love her 🤣🤣🤣🤣 if I was a singer-song writer, I definitely let everyone know “I wrote all my hits, darling! Can you write yours? *giggles* “🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤣🤣🤣

[shawteex]

Fly Like A Bird is such a powerful song 🙏 im not surprised she chose it 💗

[SoSillyWilly]

The Roof is one of the greatest records ever written/recorded and it’s so underrated. So glad it’s going to get some much needed exposure.

The living legend! The Ultimate Diva! The Songbird Supreme! The Queen Of Christmas!

[reevancarey]

I don't know why but most of you guys sleep on Subtle Invitation... It is hands down one of her best songs she ever created... Bluesy, Jazzy and a touch of R&B with her glorious voice is such an ear candy!

[voxtur__]

“I hate to be like, creating my own game but that's what I do” 💅 QUEEN, LEGEND, ICON.

[mikeygaming]

She is the literal embodiment of the word "mommy"

[industryprincc]

I understand with “the roof” beating “fourth of july”
Still Fourth of July is such a hidden gem, the vocal layering and the hidden hymns she does, Mariah knows how to structure her music 😍

[DaljiImara]

I love that she always points out that she WRITES her music 😂😂😂

[GeloMeme]

Her catalogue is what other female singers just dream of.

[Thesongbirdsupreme]

My heart fluttered when she chose Melt Away. My favourite from her hidden gems.

[kevynrichmond]

Whatever this "The Roof" moment is, I'm here for it. All of it. Can it be now please?

[jezramaebronda]

How come no one ever, EVER mentions Long Ago? I love that song so much!!

Just to mention a few of other faves:
Melt Away
All I Live For
One Night
Make it Look Good
Joyride
Candy Bling
It’s A Wrap
Runway
My All (Pure Imagination Remix)
TGIFY (Remix)
The rest of her songs!!

[igot-lu]

My top 5
1. All I want for Christmas is you
2. Always be my baby
3. Don't forget about us
4. We belong together
5. Obsessed

But a song not mentioned I'd say,
" I stay in love" is my all time favorite by her. Also love "bye bye" as i can relate to it the most.
This was hard to choose. Like who can pick only one!

[MadderCommotion]

The Roof, Outside, We Belong Together and Underneath The Stars are actually a great little couple of picks to get someone into Mariah's non-xmas music, she's iconic.
