Disco de Mariah Carey: “A Tribute to Mariah Carey”

OK, it's tolerable if this singer can't reach the Mariah's supersonic notes. Expecting a person to reach those notes would be expecting too much. Can't reach high notes? Fine. Don't have Mariah's astounding vocal flexibility? Fine. But I think some intense vocal sessions would come in handy. Actually, judging from the artificial quality of this singer's voice, we can conclude that the unnatural and synthesized sound is the product of too many singing lessons. I think this very poor performance is the peak of this singer's vocal prowess. Just comes to show that some people are born with talent, while others, no matter how much money they spend on vocal coaches, will never compare.

I listened to the sample tracks earlier today, and couldn't believe that anything could be so horrible.

To give an educated review, I decided to trek to the local used store, and see if they had it. Not surprisingly, they did -- but it was hard to find, because it was hidden with the $1.99 CD's. (Don't believe me? Go to Switched On CD's in Novi, MI and see for yourself.)

So, I took it for a test drive in the store's CD player. Luckily, they had headphones, because I'd be embarassed beyond belief if anyone saw me listening to this.

Beyond being a total assault to your ears, and a complete insult to anything Mariah Carey has done, this CD actually made me wish I was deaf.

I'm quite certain that you could go to any junior high school, and pick a random girl out of the choir class, and STILL have a rough time coming up with something worse than this.

OOOOHHH my gosh!!!! this person who sang these songs really sounded bad. I was really sad to hear her screw up my favorite song(Butterfly)she cant compare to Mariah's beautiful voice. this woman should sing her own songs because she cant sing Mariah's it would of been better if a real music artist would of sang these songs but come on this lady cant sing (well)im sorry to say that but my god she (is bad)!!!!!

Good greif!!! I would rather poke my own eyes out slowly, one by one, with very dull burning stakes than listen to this ridiculoulsy insulting "tribute" to Mariah Carey. That woman, whoever she is, really should have listened to her own recording before wasting all her time, money, and dignity on printing and distributing such horrible garbage. If Mariah authorized this, it was only so she could have a very good laugh.

I think that this singer has some vocal talent-although nothing in comparision 2 mariah carey. But her voice isn't horrible. If she could sing some songs thats style complimented her voice then she might be able to make somthing work for herself. But this CD is just a wreck. I pity anyone who wastes their money on it. I dunno if this was a joke or if the person was serious while making this but I dont think they should have attempted to recreate her voice or her songs. It just doesn't work. To be perfectly honest I really think it sounds like karoke. If you wanna by a mariah CD buy one of her own.
