Análisis (en inglés) - :
{$Mariah Carey} claims {^Rainbow}, her first album since divorcing {$Tommy Mottola}, "chronicles my emotional roller coaster ride of the past year," but less subjective listeners could be forgiven for viewing it as simply another {$Mariah Carey} album. After all, all the elements are in place -- the crossover dance hits, the {\ballads}, the cameos, the hip producers, the weird cover choice from the early '80s. But dig a little deeper, and her words ring true. {^Rainbow} is the first {$Carey} album where she's written personal lyrics, and allusions to her separation from {$Mottola} are evident throughout the album, even if it doesn't really amount to the "story" she mentions in the liner notes. As appropriate for any introspective album, it's a bit {\ballad}-heavy, which makes {^Rainbow} seem a little samey. Yet that's not the only reason the record has a weird sense of déjà vu, since this follows the same formula as its two predecessors, distinguished primarily by her newfound fondness for flashing flesh. That repetition isn't necessarily a problem, since she does formula very well, managing to appeal to both housewives as well as b-boys. {^Rainbow} proves that she can still pull off that difficult balancing act, but it's hard not to be a little disappointed that she'd didn't shake the music up a little bit more -- after all, it would have been a more effective album if the heartbreak, sorrow, and joy that bubbles underneath the music were brought to the surface. [The 2006 Chinese edition includes an additional CD of bonus material.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
