Mariah Carey Discografie - Album The Emancipation of Mimi


INFO: Nach längerer Pause kam Mariah Carey im April 2005 mit ihrem nunmehr 14. Album, "The Emancipation of Mimi", zurück.
Wie schon auf den Vorgängeralben finden sich auf "The Emancipation of Mimi" viele Kooperationen, diesmal u.a. mit Kanye West, Nelly, The Neptunes und Snoop Dogg. Als wichtigster Producer ist Jermaine Dupri beteiligt, in den Jahren zuvor waren vor allem Jimmy Jam und Terry Lewis die Produzenten von MC. Der Producer-Wechsel hat dem neuen Album hörbar gut getan. "The Emancipation of Mimi" knüpft an alte R&B-Traditionen von Mariah an, die Verbindungen zum HipHop gehen diesmal nicht so zu Lasten der Vielseitigkeit und der stimmlichen Möglichkeiten wie bei den Vorgängeralben "Glitter" und "Charmbracelet". Man "hört" Mariah wieder. Das kam bei den Kritikern gut an, denn "Mimi" (Mimi war der bislang "geheime" Spitzname von Mariah) erhielt überwiegend gute bis sehr gute Noten von der Fachpresse. Auch das Radio zeigte sich höchst interessiert, Mit "It's Like That" bekam Mariah die besten Airplays bei den US-Sendern seit über 5 Jahren, die für "We Belong Together" schlugen dann alle Rekorde!  Es wurde der meistgespielte Song in der US-Chartgeschichte und blieb 14 Wochen auf Platz 1 der Hot 100. Und auch die nachfolgenden Singles waren überaus erfolgreich. "Shake It Off" kam bis auf Platz 2 und "Don't Forget About Us" wurde sogar zum inzwischen 17. Nummer 1 Song von Mariah in den US Hot 100. Damit zog sie mit dem US-Idol Elvis Presley gleich.
In Deutschland erreichte Mariah Carey mit "It's Like That" und "We Belong Together" einige ihrer besten Chartplatzierungen überhaupt. Die Europäer brauchten zwar etwas Zeit, um an den Erfolg von "The Emancipation of Mimi" zu glauben, aber dann stieg die CD in vielen Chart wieder aufwärts.
Auch wenn "The Emancipation of Mimi" nicht ganz an ein so qualitativ hervorragendes Album wie "Butterfly" heranreicht, mit "Mimi" hat die von vielen schon abgeschriebene Mariah Carey das Comeback mehr als geschafft. Sie hat den Thron als erfolgreichste Sängerin verteidigt und ihrer Krone neue Juwelen hinzugefügt!
Mit drei Grammy-Auszeichnungen und inzwischen 6-fach-Platin für "The Emancipation of Mimi" und dem meistverkauften Album 2005 in den USA ist Mariah Carey's jüngstes Studioalbum zu einem der erfolgreichsten ihrer Laufbahn geworden.
Nach dem musikalischem Erfolg mit "The Emancipation of Mimi" ist Mariah gegenwärtig auf Tour, die Konzerte verlaufen ebenfalls bislang sehr erfolgreich.

Nachtrag:
Im Juli 2007 veröffentlichte Producer Mahogany auf seiner Webseite den Song "I Feel It", der ursprünglich für das Album "The Emancipation of Mimi" gedacht war, dann aber doch nicht in die Trackliste kam. Die Lyrics findet ihr unten auf dieser Seite.


SINGLES: Als erste Single wurde im Januar 2005 in den USA der Song "It's Like That" ausgekoppelt, dabei hatte es zunächst geheißen, daß "Say Something" die Startsingle aus dem Album sein würde. Beide Song gerieten vorzeitig ins Internet und an die Radiostationen. Nachdem "It's Like That" ein Radioerfolg wurde, soll man sich bei MC's Management umentschieden haben, und man hat diesen Titel als erste Singel herausgegeben. "We Belong Together" folgte im März als 2. Auskopplung und wurde ein Supererfolg: Der 16. # 1 Hit für Mariah! Im Mai erschien "Fly Like A Bird" (nur als Radiopromo in den USA). Im Juli 05 ging "Shake It Off" als dritte Auskopplung in den USA ins Rennen. In Europa wird diese Single nicht erscheinen, hier wurde "Get Your Number" veröffentlicht, in Großbritannien als Doppel-A-Single "Get Your Number / Shake It Off".
Im Oktober folgte in den USA schließlich "Don't Forget About Us" als vierte US-Single (17. # 1 für Mariah. Der Song ist von der Neuausgabe von "The Emancipation of Mimi".
Im März/April 2006 folgten als 5. und 6. USA-Auskopplung die Songs "Say Somethin'" und "Fly Like Bird". In Europa blieb es bei "Say Somethin'".
(Der Song "So Lonely" von Twista ft. Mariah Carey wurde übrigens nur von Twista's Album veröffentlicht).
Letzten Meldungen zufolge soll es nun tatsächlich noch eine Singleauskopplung in den USA geben: "Mine Again" soll am 29. August im Format Urban Adult Contemporary  als Radioedit veröffentlicht werden.

VIDEOS: Bislang wurden sechs Videos veröffentlicht, eines zu "It's Like That" und eines zu "We Belong Together", die miteinander in einem Zusammenhang stehen, wie der Abspann im ersten Video zu "ILT" mit "Fortsetzung folgt" schon ankündigt. Dem Kennenlernen auf der Party im Video zu "It's Like That" folgt die (beinahe) Hochzeit im Clip zu "We Belong Together", wo Mariah dann doch kurz vor dem Ja-Wort die Flucht ergreift. Daß Mariah in dem Clip einem etwas älteren Herrn davonläuft, wird von manchen als Anspielung auf die gescheiterte Ehe mit Tommy Mottola verstanden, der bekanntlich rund zwei Jahrzehnte älter war als Mariah Carey.
Dananch folgten die Clips zu "Shake It Off" mit Gastauftritten von Da Brat, Jermaine Dupri und Chris Tacker (nur USA) und das extra für Europa gedrehte Video zu "Get Your Number", in dem ein Typ auf etwas mühevolle Weise zur Telefonnummer von Mariah kommt.
Mit dem Video zu "Don't Forget About Us" erschien ein romatischer Clip über Erinnerungen an den Freund mit viel erotischer Ausstrahlung und einer Poolszene, die einer Filmszene aus Marilyn Monroe's letztem Film Something's Got To Give" nachempfunden ist.
Letztes Video aus "The Emancipation of Mimi" wurde "Say Somethin'", in Paris und Los Angeles gedreht unter der Mitwirkung von Pharell und Snoop Dogg.
Kurioses: Bei Dreh zu "Shake It Off" trug Mariah Schuhe, die so drückten, daß sie sich die Füße blutend wund rieb. Sie mußte schließlich zwischen den Drehplätzen herumgetragen werden, weil sie kaum noch laufen konnte.
Im Video zu "Don't Forget About Us" soll laut Mariah ein versteckter Hinweis für die Fans sein, inzwischen haben Fans einige Deutungen gefunden: So gäbe es im Video einen kleinen geschichtlichen Abriß zu Mariah's Karriere, denn da finden sich in den Szenen eingearbeitet ihre Albencover wieder und Bilder, die an frühere Videos erinnern, wie die Strandszene (vergleiche mit "Honey"). Fans berichten weiter, auf der Graffiti-Mauer sei die Zahl 143 zu sehen, die das Symbol für "I Love You" ist.
Bei den Dreharbeiten zu "Say Somethin'" in Paris fror Mariah in Minioutfits bei Minusgraden und die Aufnahmen bei Louis Vuitton führten zu Spekulationen über einen möglichen Modelvertrag.

Album Reviews

"Mimi", wie Mariah als junges Mädchen genannt wurde, ist erwachsen geworden - und das hört man ihrem Album auch an. Bestes Beispiel dafür ist die erste Single-Auskopplung "It's Like That". Der Titel deutet es schon an: Mariah hat sich emanzipiert, endgültig, das sollen alle akzeptieren. Kein Problem, denn die neue Mariah Carey hört sich richtig gut an, frisch und stilistisch gewandelt.
(T-Online)

Mariah Carey hat sich u.a. Snoop Dogg, The Neptunes und Nelly als Unterstützung ihres Comebacks "The Emancipation Of Mimi" geschnappt. Dem Album hört man Mariahs neu gewonnene Freude an der Musik an.
(Pro7)

Mariah Carey muss sich nichts mehr beweisen, vielleicht klingen die 14 Tracks, entstanden unter tatkräftiger Mithilfe von Jermaine Dupri, James Poyser, The Neptunes, Kanye West und Scram Jones, deshalb so entspannt. Die Sängerin glänzt diesmal nicht nur mit ihrer unverwechselbaren Stimme, sondern ist bei allen Songs auch als Autorin entscheidend beteiligt.
(Amazon)

Ihr Hauptaugenmerk aber bleibt die Musik. Mit einem ambitionierten Album, das Fans wie Kritiker überraschen dürfte: "The Emancipation Of Mimi". Darauf präsentiert sich die stimmgewaltige Dame als das, was sie - wie sie sagt - immer sein wollte, aber unter Göttergatte und Ex-Label-Boss Tommy Mottola nie sein konnte: kein Goldkehlchen, das aufpolierten Mainstream trällert, sondern eine urbane Künstlerin, die ihre Leidenschaft für R&B, Soul und HipHop auslebt. Mit fetten Beats aus der Feder von Jermaine Dupri und den Neptunes, hitverdächtigen Duetten mit Snoop Dogg und Nelly sowie vielen schlüpfrigen Texten.

Die Lyrics

It's Like That


Jermaine Dupri:
'Dis is, the point when I need e'rybody get to the dance floor
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
Da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
Like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all) (MC)

Mariah Carey:
I came to have a party
Open up the Bacardi
Feeling so hot tamale
Boy I know you watchin' me
So what's it gonna be?
Purple taking me higher
I'm lifted and I like it
Boy you got me inspired
Baby, come and get it
If you're really feeling me

Bridge:
'Cause it's my night
No stress, no fights
I'm leaving it all behind
No tears, no time to cry
Just making the most of life

Chorus:
Everybody is livin' it up
All the fellas keep lookin' at us ('cause)
Me and my girls on the floor like what
While the DJ keeps on spinning the cut
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)

You like this and you know it
Caution, it's so explosive
Them chickens is ash and I'm lotion
Baby come and get it
Let me give you what you need
It's a special occasion
Mimi's emancipation
A cause for celebration
I ain't gonna let nobody's drama bother me

Bridge:
'Cause it's my night
No stress, no fights
I'm leaving it all behind
No tears (no tears), no time to cry
Just making the most of life

Chorus:
Everybody is livin' it up
All the fellas keep lookin' at us ('cause)
Me and my girls on the floor like what
While the DJ keeps on spinning the cut
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)

Bridge:
'Cause it's my night (it's my, it's my night)
No stress, no fights (no stress..)
I'm leaving it all behind
No tears (no tears), no time to cry
Baby I'm making the most of life

Chorus:
Everybody is livin' it up (I said everybody)
All the fellas keep lookin' at us (lookin' at us) ('cause)
Me and my girls on the floor like what
While the DJ keeps on spinning the cut
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)

This is my night

Fatman Scoop:

We Belong Together


-Uuuh.. Ooh.. Oh Ooh..
Sweet love... yeah

Verse 1
I didn't mean it when I said
I didn't love you so
I should have held on tight
I never should've let you go
I didn't know nothing
I was stupid, I was foolish
I was lying to myself
I couldn't have fathomed
I would ever be without your love
Never imagined I'd be sitting
Here beside myself
Guess I didn't know you
You'd guess I didn't know me
But I thought I knew everything
I never felt

Pre-Chorus 1
The feeling that I'm feeling
Now that I don't hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips
Cause I don't have a choice
Or what I wouldn't give
To have you lying by my side
Right here 'cause baby

Chorus 1
(We belong together)
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
(Come back, come back)
Come back baby please 'cause
(Come back, come back)
We belong together
Who else am I gonna lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who is gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh baby, baby
We belong together

Verse 2
I can't sleep at night
When you are on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
Singing to me "If you think you're lonely now"
Wait a minute
This is too deep, too deep
I gotta change the station
So I turn the dial tryin' to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface
"I only think of you" and it's breaking my heart
I'm trying to keep it together
But I'm falling apart

Pre-Chorus 2
I'm feeling all out of my element
Throwing things, crying
Trying to figure out
Where the hell I went wrong
The pain reflected in this song
Ain't even half of what I'm feeling inside
I need you, need you back in my life baby

Chorus 2
(We Belong Together)
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
(Come back, come back)
Come back baby please 'cause
(Come back, come back)
We belong together
Who else am I gonna lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who is gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh baby, baby
We belong together baby

Outro
(We Belong Together)
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
(Come back, come back)
Come back baby please 'cause
(Come back, come back)
We belong together
Who am I gonna lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh baby, baby
We belong togetheeer...



Shake It Off


Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooooh

Chorus
I gotta shake you off
Cause the loving ain't the same
And you keep on playing games
Like you know I'm here to stay
I gotta shake, shake you off
Just like the Calgon commercial
I really gotta get up outta here
And go somewhere
I gotta shake you off
Gotta make that move
Find somebody who
Appreciates all the love I give
Boy I gotta shake, shake you off
Gotta do what's best for me
Baby and that means I gotta
Shake you off

Verse 1
By the time you get this message
It's gonna be too late
So don't bother paging me
Cause I'll be on my way
See I grabbed all my diamonds and clothes
Just ask your momma she knows
You're gonna miss me baby
Hate to say "I told you so"
Well at first I didn't know
But now it's clear to me
You would cheat with all your freaks
And lie compulsively
So I packed up my Louis Vuitton
Jumped in your ride and took off
You'll never ever find a girl
Who loves you more than me

Chorus 2
I gotta shake you off
Cause the loving ain't the same
And you keep on playing games
Like you know I'm here to stay
I gotta shake, shake you off
Just like the Calgon commercial
I really gotta get up outta here
And go somewhere
I gotta shake you off
Gotta make that move
Find somebody who
Appreciates all the love I give
Boy I gotta shake, shake you off
Gotta do what's best for me
Baby and that means I gotta
Shake you off

Bridge
I gotta shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it off
Shake, shake, shake, shake, gotta shake it off
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it off
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it off

Verse 2
I found out about a gang
Of your dirty little deeds
With this one and that one
By the pool, on the beach, in the streets
Heard y'all was
Hold up my phone's breakin' up
I'ma hang up and call the machine right back
I gotta get this off of my mind
You wasn't worth my time
So I'm leaving you behind
Yeah 'cause I need a real love in my life
Save this recording because
I'm never coming back home
Baby I'm gone
Don't you know

Chorus 3
I gotta shake you off
Cause the loving ain't the same
And you keep on playing games
Like you know I'm here to stay
I gotta shake, shake you off
Just like the Calgon commercial
I really gotta get up outta here
And go somewhere
I gotta shake you off (I...)
Gotta make that move (..gotta make that move)
Find somebody who
Appreciates all the love I give
Boy I gotta shake, shake you off
Gotta do what's best for me
Baby and that means I gotta
Shake you off

Bridge
I gotta shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it off
Shake, shake, shake, shake, gotta shake it off
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it off
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it off

Chorus 4
I just gotta shake you off
Cause the loving ain't the same
And you keep on playing games (oh)
Like you know I'm here to stay (now I gotta)
I gotta shake, shake you off
Just like the Calgon commercial
I really gotta get up outta here
And go somewhere (I really gotta go somewhere)
I gotta shake you off
Gotta make that move
Find somebody who
Appreciates all the love I give
Boy I gotta shake, shake you off
Gotta do what's best for me
Baby and that means I gotta
Shake you off (shake you off)

I gotta shake you off...



Mine Again


Verse 1
I remember when you used to be mine
Way back when
I was too naïve to love you right
But now if I only had the opportunity
I would do anything
Because my heart still believes

Chorus 1
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Maybe we could bring it back to life

Verse 2
It's irrelevant to dwell on the past
I'm accountable for what went bad
And I mean that
But I keep on praying for another chance
Just to have you back
Cause I've grown
And I know how to be your everything

Chorus 2
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Maybe we could bring it back to life

Bridge
No, no it ain't over yet
I just can't accept the possibility
We weren't made for each other's arms
I know you're my destiny
We can't erase what was meant to be
Part of you and part of me
If we try one more time
Maybe somehow we'll survive

Outro
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Boy maybe we could bring it back
Maybe we could bring it back
Maybe we could bring it back to...
Life...
Maybe you could be mine

Tell me why we're still in here

There's nothing for us to fear
I could tell with my eyes closed

Snoop Dogg:
Everytime I fall though
Want me to speak on the word or two
It's the D-O-double-G
And I do it so lovingly
Diggin’ this track by the Neptunes
Babygirl, follow me to the west room
Now get buck wild
Shhh, don't make a sound
I'll take you, lay you down
Make your body go round and round
Do you want me to?
Don't say you won't
I know you do
Most girls play shy
It won't hurt until you give it a try
I know you like my smile
Dig my style, dig the bow-wow

But uhh
If it's worth your while
Say something, say something
Say something good
If it's worth your while
Say something good to me
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey
If it's worth your while
Do something good to me



Stay The Night


You're kissing me
And saying I'm the one you need
To keep you warm
And lay with you tonight
Baby I feel the same way
I don't want to leave
Wanna hold you close
And feel your love inside
But I don't wanna play myself
Cause I know you're with someone else
And I don't need complications in my life
And I don't wanna fall back in
And get caught up in you again
Boy I'm so conflicted in my mind

[chorus]
You keep saying stay the night
Just let me rock you till the morning light
It's cold outside
And much too late to drive
You know I need you baby
I'm so lost without your love

Obviously, procrastinating just to be
Close to you a little longer now
It's hard for me to break away from you baby
Never could resist you
And I still haven't learned how
And I don't wanna be a fool
But it's hard when it comes to you
And I'm feeling vulnerable tonight
Cause I don't wanna miss the chance
Of reliving our sweet romance
Boy I'm so confused down deep inside

[chorus]
You keep saying stay the night
Just let me rock you til the morning light
It's cold outside
And much too late to drive
You know I need you baby
I'm so lost without your love



Get Your Number


[chorus]
Oh damn
The club 'bout to close in a minute
Can I get your number baby
So you and I can go get in it
Let me come and pick you up
And go take you out
Can I get your number baby
So I can show you what I'm all about
What I'm all about
Damn

I've been checkin' you out
And I noticed that you ain't just one of the crowd
So tell me won't you
Come on and see about me baby
I've got the Crys on ice and I'm 'bout to get nice
Up in VIP with all my ladies
Tell me how many times in your life
Will you get an opportunity like this tonight
Tell me a little somethin' about you
Here's a little somethin' about me
I got a house in Capri and my own G4
And that Benz with the doors that life up from the floor

[chorus]
Oh damn
The club 'bout to close in a minute
Can I get your number baby
So you and I can go get in it
Let me come and pick you up
And go take you out
Can I get your number baby
So I can show you what I'm all about
What I'm all about
Damn

Now that you're sitting next to me
I bet you're wondering
What my intentions are for you
And I to get into
Baby I just wanna
Hug and kiss and love ya
Look into my eyes baby don't be shy
Is it yes or no
We ain't got all night
Tell me how many times in your life
Will you get an opportunity like this tonight
Tell me a little somethin' about you
Here's a little somethin' about me
I gotta PIP penthouse with a sick hot tub
We can watch the flat screen
While the bubbles fill it up

[chorus]
Oh damn
The club 'bout to close in a minute
Can I get your number baby
So you and I can go get in it
Let me come and pick you up
And go take you out
Can I get your number baby
So I can show you what I'm all about
What I'm all about
Damn

La, la, la, la, la, la



One And Only


I'm lookin' for my one and only
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
So so lonely
I'm lookin' for my one and only

I'm riding home in pain again baby
But that don't mean s*** to you
You're currently engaged
In an intimate conversation
With a young groupie or two
They say "players only love you
when they're playing games"
Still I gave my heart to you
I should have stayed away
Like my friends all told me to

[chorus]
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
So so lonely
I'm lookin' for my one and only
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
Why can't I find my one and only

See I'm looking for a man that'll rub me slow
Make me sing real high
When he goes down low
But see it ain't just a physical thing
He's gotta treat me affectionately
And I gotta know he won't betray my trust
Just like every other motherf***** does
Is this just an impossible dream baby
To elusive to pursue
It's been such a sad and windy road for me
Just searchin' for the truth

[chorus]
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
So so lonely
I'm lookin' for my one and only
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
Why can't I find my one and only

Every time--oh-mmm
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
So so loney
Why--
I'm looking for my one and only
Every time I turn around
Agh--ha ha ha ha
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
Whey can't I find my one and only
Still lookin' for my one and only
Every time I turn around
Agh--ha ha ha ha
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
So so lonely
Yay-
I'm lookin' for my one and only
I'm lookin' for my one and only
Every time I turn around
Agh-ha ha ha ha
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
I'm lookin' for my one and only
Why can't I find my one and only
Agh--
 


Circles


Ever since you left me
I've been trying to hide the pain
Painting on a smile with lipstick
Putting on a big charade
So difficult to keep pretending
It's getting harder everyday
It's plain to see I'm cold and heartsick
Since you turned and walked away
I just keep going round and round
And round in circles
Keep on tumbling down

[chorus]
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without out
Nothing's the same
You got me running around in circles over you
(running around in circles over you)

Saturday I saw you
Holding hands with someone new
Somehow I kept my composure
Just like everything was cool
But inside I kept repeating
Don't you let them see you cry
So I casually turned my head
As the tears rolled down my eyes
I just keep going round and round
And round in circles
Keep on tumbling down

[chorus]
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without you
Nothing's the same
You got me running around in circles over you

Everything is you
How can I pull through
My heart is consumed I'm so confused
Still caught up in you...love can be so cruel
Baby don't know how to turn you loose

[chorus]
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without you
No, nothing's the same
You got me running around
And running around
And running around
Nothing's the same
Baby baby cause you
Got me running around
In circles over you
(running around in circles over you)



Your Girl


See, I used to be so shy
Sit at home and fantasize
(I should be your girl)
but I ain't wastin' no more time
cause I've got to make you mine

[chorus]
I'm gonna make you want to
Get with me tonight
I'm gonna put those naughty
Thoughts into your mind
I'm gonna show you clearly
I can rock your world
You're gonna know for sure
That I should be your girl

See I used to be afraid
But now baby I can't wait
I just gotta have your love
And enough's enough's enough

[chorus]
I'm gonna make you want to
Get with me tonight
I'm gonna put those naughty
Thoughts into your mind
I'm gonna show you clearly
I can rock your world
You're gonna know for sure
That I should be your girl



I Wish You Knew


I've got to see you
Wherever you are
And I've got to be there
I'm wishing on stars
I've got to reveal what's inside of my heart
But the words escape me
And I'm paralyzed
So helpless when I
Look into your eyes

[chorus]
And how I wish you only knew
What I feel inside for you
You probably haven't got a clue
But I wish you knew
How I love you baby

Honestly I know it's silly of me
To want you so badly
But keep it concealed
See my inferiority complex kicks in
And the words escape me
And I'm paralyzed
So helpless when I
Look into your eyes

[chorus]
And how I wish you only knew
What I feel inside for you
You probably haven't got a clue
But I wish you knew
How I love you baby

Joy Ride


[Verse 1]
Baby baby don't you ever let go
More and more until we both overflow
Got a feeling that my heart's never known
I found love
Tender kisses and I'm floating on air
You can have me anytime, anywhere
When you need me I will always be there
I found love

[Chorus 1]
And our love goes round and round
Way up high, a joy ride
We can touch the stars above
We found love
And our love was heaven sent
From the day we first met
We've got something they can't touch
We found love

[Verse 2]
Loving you is like a taste of heaven
Wanna gaze into your eyes forever
Run away and spend our lives together
I've found love
Baby baby
All it takes is one touch
And immediately I feel a rush
Baby boy, too much is never enough
I found love

[Chorus 2]
And our love goes round and round
Way up high, a joy ride
We can touch the stars above
We found love
And our love was heaven sent
From the day we first met
We've got something they can't touch
We found love

[Bridge]
I don't need anything
When you're here next to me
Nobody in this whole wide world
Could ever replace you in my eyes
We found paradise
Forever you and I
Our love goes round and round
On a joy ride
(with ya babe, with ya babe,
with ya babe, with you baby)

[Outro]



Fly Like A Bird


Somehow I know that
There's a place up above
With no more hurt and struggling
Free of all atrocities and suffering
Because I feel the unconditional love
From one who cares enough for me
To erase all my burdens
And let me be free to

[chorus]
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need you now Lord
Carry me high
Don't let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of you by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray you'll come and carry me home

Can we recover
Will the world ever be
A place of peace and harmony
With no war and with no brutality
If we loved each other
We would find victory
But in this harsh reality
Sometimes I'm so despondant
That I feel the need to

[chorus]
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need You now Lord
Carry me high
Don't let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of You by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray You'll come and carry me home

Keep your head to the sky
With God's love you'll survive

Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need you now Lord
Carry me high
Don't let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of You by my side

Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray You'll come and carry me home
Carry me higher, higher, higher
Carry me higher, higher, higher
Carry me home
Higher Jesus
Carry me higher Lord



Sprung


Babe, when you look my way
You keep on blowin' my mind
You keep on makin' me high
Keep givin' me butterflies

Every little thing you do just lifts me off of the ground
Heart leaps when you come around
See, I'm just breakin' it down

You've got everything I need
Just want you to want me
You just can't imagine boy
I'm on a tangent

Cause I'm sprung over you
And ain't nothing I can do
Turning me upside down
Boy, you got me twisted out
Thoughts of you fill my head
Toss and turn in my bed
Cause I'm sprung over you
And I don't know, don't know what to do

Oh, it's hard to make believe
This's just a casual thing
You so ? to me
Feels like I'm leaving a dream

Baby, please don't wake me up
I'm lost in reverie
Drifting (?)
I'm right where I wanna be

You got everything I need
Just want you to want me
You just can't imagine boy
I'm on a tangent

Cause I'm sprung over you
And ain't nothing I can do
Turning me upside down
Boy, you got me twisted out
Thoughts of you fill my head
Toss and turn in my bed
Cause I'm sprung over you
And I don't know don't know what to do

I don't care 'bout nothing but you baby
I don't care 'bout nothing but you baby

Cause I'm sprung over you
And ain't nothing I can do
Turning me upside down
Boy, you got me twisted out
Thoughts of you fill my head
Toss and turn in my bed
Cause I'm sprung over you
And I don't know don't know what to do

(What it look like
What it do

What it look like

Got me fly and sexy
Somethin' in you gets me
So tingly inside
Visions of us in the club tonight
And I find you so appealing
Definitely feeling you
If you didn't know
Boy you're the secret I've never told

Betcha think I'm teasin'
But I ain't got no reason
To deny
The way I feel inside

Put my hands on you
And love you
You'll be like
"I want you over and over and
Over and over again"

What it look like
Me and you
Makin' it last all night
What it do, what it do
My heart it's beating faster
All the time
What it look like, look like
Boy you don't even know
Everythin' that flows
Through my mind
What it do, what it do
Ooh boy, what you gon' do about it?

Tonight
You gon' be mine

Betcha think I'm teasin'
But I ain't got no reason
To deny
The way I feel inside
Tonight
I just wanna touch you
Put my hands on you
And love you
You'll be like
"I want you over and over and
Over and over again"

What it look like
Me and you
Makin' it last all night
What it do, what it do
My heart it's beating faster
All the time
What it look like, look like
Boy you don't even know
Everythin' that flows
Through my mind
What it do, what it do
Ooh boy, what you gon' do about it?



Don't Forget About Us


[Intro]
Don't baby, don't baby, don‘t let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don‘t let it go
My baby boy...

[Verse 1]
Just Iet it die
With no goodbyes
Details don't matter
We both pald the price
Tears in my eyes
You know sometimes
It'd be like that baby

[Bridge 1]
Now everytime I see you
I pretend I'm fine
When I wanna reach out to you
But I turn and I walk and I let it ride
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
And don't forget about

[Chorus]
Late nights, playin' in the dark
And wakin' up inside my arms
Boy you'll always be in my heart and
I can see it in your eyes
You still want it
So don't forget about us

I'm just speaking from experience
Nothing can compare to your first true love
So I hope this will remind you
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us

[Verse 2]
Oh they say
That you're in a new relationship
But we both know
Nothing comes close to
What we had, it perseveres
That we both can't forget it
How good we used to get it

[Bridge 2]
There's only one me and you
And how we used to shine
No matter what you go through
We are one, that's a fact
That you can't deny
So baby we just can't let
The fire pass us by
Forever we'd both regret it
So don't forget about

[Chorus]

[Rap]
And if she's got your head all messed up now
That's the trickery
She'll wanna have like you know how this lovin' used to be
I bet she can't do like me
She'll never be MC

Baby don't you, don't you forget about

[Chorus 2x]

Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go

When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us



So Lonely (One & Only Part II)


Darkchild...

It's your boy Twista
That girl Mariah
It's that fire...

[Mariah]
I've been here alone and I'm back in the dark
And sometimes wish you was with me
Talkin' a little on the phone about what everybod's sayin'
All the things they tell me
'Coz I know inside we belong still to each other incidentally
I'ma need of healin'
You're the only one who gives me that feelin'

[Verse 1: Twista]
You know I like the way you kick it girl
You know I like it when you in my world
Come here lil' momma lemme freak yo' body
Then roll wit me in the Bentley white pearl
Girl you know you get me so erotic
Especially when I be sippin Hypnotiq
Got me feelin like I'm smokin on *****
When we f***in' it be so exotic
No I know that everything be on fire wit Mariah
And she know she be dealin with a baller
Hiccup ashes and meet me through the wire
Fulfillin' desires like a Chi shot caller
Do you love how the Twista went at you (at you)
Do you love when I hit it from the back too (back too)
Let me feel how you hook up that one way
C'mon baby girl let me see what that do

[Hook]
I wish that we could, blow up the speakers
Over and over, to Vandross to C-cups
Forever, your lady. you act right, then maybe
Ain't nothin' to talk about, with the music loud
So they won't hear me say...

[Chorus x2]
Ahh, hah, hah, hah ha hahh...
Come and be my one and only
I'm tired of being so lonely, come hold me
Ahh, hah, hah, hah ha hahh...
Wanna wrap myself around you
Whenever you want to come make me say

[Verrse 2: Twista (Mariah Carey)]
Now we pullin' up out the garage
In the platinum blue I-nage
Me and you about to hit that club
To the bar so we can sip that bub
Both of us together we be the livest
If I had to break it down, how would I desribe it
(Ahh, hah, hah, hah ha hahh)
We the type of couple that when we get up with each other
We get it crackin' in the kitchen or the bedroom
It don't matter where we at, we be makin' noise
So play the track, so the bass'll make your head boom
Break you off when you hold one leg up
And you know I like the way you put it on me
It's the East coast queen and the Mid-west mob boss
Shorty I'ma never leave you lonely

[Hook]
[Chorus x2]

Soldier show a girl what it do (wat it do)
I'll tell this boy a promise even
You got my body lit up like the moon
Way too persuasive I can't take it
I'm so caught up in you

[Chorus]




I FEEL IT


Here we go again (spoken)

I don't wanna let you in (spoken)
But you know what happens (spoken)
When I, when I,
When I feel it.

I feel it deep inside,
I feel it come alive,
Here comes that feeling again.

I feel it deep inside,
I feel it come alive,
Here comes that feeling again.

Keep telling you it's over,
But boy here we go again.
You say 'I'm coming over'
'Cause you know I'll let you in.
So sly and so persuasive,
I don't wanna let you win,
But my respect's diminishing
And then I go
When I, when I,
When I feel it.

I feel it deep inside,
I feel it come alive,
Here comes that feeling again.

I feel it deep inside,
I feel it come alive,
Here comes that feeling again.

Keep trying to convince myself
You ain't no good for me,
Make futile resolutions
That I'm gonna let you be
But everytime you come back,
My defenses start to wane,
And I can hardly break away
And then I go
When I, when I,
When I feel it.

I feel it deep inside,
I feel it come alive,
Here comes that feeling again.

I feel it deep inside,
I feel it come alive,
Here comes that feeling again.

Here it comes again boy,
And I feel it, and I feel it!
Here comes that feeling again.
