MOOPY ALBUM SYNC LISTENS #5 - MARIAH CAREY - BUTTERFLY - 8PM TUESDAY 05/05

[GinAg (39)]

Oh God it's SEVEN MINUTES!

 

[GinAg (39)]

I did 1984 Eurovision until 2am. I can do this. I can do this.

 

[ameraal]

I think it's Stockholm Syndrome but I quite like Babydoll.

babydoll is lush. as minimal as mariah gets.

 

[ameraal]

you've already heard all of it. damn my dinner.

 

[Zu]

What the fuck is this?

Oh God it's SEVEN MINUTES!

 

[Raining on Me]

It's getting better but when you realize it's longer than it takes to eat fish and chips (including gherkins, a pickled egg and pea fritter - in theory) I suppose you have to tell yourself that

 

[ameraal]

close my eyes is great. it's almost deep.

 

[ameraal]

are you at the beautiful ones? one of my favourite things she's ever done! <з

 

[GinAg (39)]

It's getting better but when you realize it's longer than it takes to eat fish and chips (including gherkins, a pickled egg and pea fritter - in theory) I suppose you have to tell yourself that

It's not at all.

 

[ameraal]

it's the r&b enough is enough scream-off for the ages *.*

 

[GinAg (39)]

are you at the beautiful ones? one of my favourite things she's ever done! <з

Yeah. It's totally alright.

 

[Zu]

It's getting better but when you realize it's longer than it takes to eat fish and chips (including gherkins, a pickled egg and pea fritter - in theory) I suppose you have to tell yourself that

Oh I can do that in about twelve minutes. Sasha ‘Xpander’ 12” sync party featuring fish and chip supper next week please

 

[Raining on Me]

Outside is a perfectly inoffensive ending. Oh hang on it's rousing itself up a bit

 

[GinAg (39)]

Oh I can do that in about twelve minutes. Sasha ‘Xpander’ 12” sync party featuring fish and chip supper next week please

LOVELY

Who did the original?

 

[SDF]

Oh mines is when back to the start

WHO IS JOINING ME?

 

[GinAg (39)]

On balance 6.5/10.

The paperthin rubbish in the first half and the deeply overrated Honey let down whst was ended up being a solid effort.

The second half displayed far more intention and was all the better for it.

 

[ameraal]

Who did the original?

prince.

 

[GinAg (39)]

prince.

That explains a great deal.

 

[Sheena]

Who did the original?

It’s a Prince classic. It’s on Purple Rain.

 

[GinAg (39)]

It’s a Prince classic. It’s on Purple Rain.

HA! I did think it was GOOD!

 

[Cerro de Casa]

This thread

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Shall we have Ace of Base The Sign on a Moopy sync relisten group part thing please? That could be, er, ace...

 

[Sheena]

I’d have rather seen her have a stab at Darling Nikki.

“I knew a girl named Nikki, I guess you could say she was a sex fiend.
I met her in a hotel lobby masturbating with a magazine.”

[GinAg (39)]

I was going to suggest this. Well Happy Nation (US Version) anyway.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Now THAT I could get on board with.

Ideally on a night when I could be on the WINE

Not a TUESDAY !

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I was going to suggest this. Well Happy Nation (US Version) anyway.

Oh yeah whichever version is fine by me.. I've got both!

 

[GinAg (39)]

Oh God. I really don't know this album!

Listening to Prince now as a palate cleanser.

 

[GinAg (39)]

But that honestly wasn't as duff as I anticipated.

 

[SDF]

What a success this was

MORE Mariah listens please

 

[GinAg (39)]

We MUST DO Purple Rain AT SOME POINT.

 

[Raining on Me]

Well I wasn't doing anything else tonight so there is that I suppose.

I like pop Mariah, big ballad Mariah, and mid-00s "minimalist" Mariah. But there was a lot going on between Butterfly-Rainbow-Charmbracelet that I hate (we of course excuse "Glitter").

I'm thankful for the experience with Butterfly but I shan't be renting her again

 

[GinAg (39)]

Right @octophone Purple Rain and Happy Nation to the list please!
