#1's - Mariah Carey

... more
woman's chart toppers: the disc chronicles a shift from the sweet, nearly '50s-style "Vision of Love" to more recent hip-hop-lite grooves featuring heavy input from Puffy Combs ("Honey"), Jermaine Dupri ("Sweetheart"), and O.D.B. ("Fantasy"). Some hit, some miss, but all feature the fluttery swoops that Carey substitutes for expression of feeling. Depth is beside the point, but few of these tracks are even fun. Still, after eight years, there seems to be no stopping her, and this album will hardly break her streak of successes. --Rickey Wright
Advantages: A collection of her best (not greatest!) hits Disadvantages: None
The idea of this album is to show off Mariah Carey’s 12 number 1 singles hence the name #1’s! Mariah makes it clear in the sleeve that “this is not a greatest hits album!” she also says that the album “is a thank you and an acknowledgment of my gratitude to all of you out there for making these records #1 on the charts”. Right, ok, who the heck is she trying to kid? It’s a very easy way to make a hell of ... ...Mariah Carey (not just for her gorgeous looks but also for her amazing singing ability, really, honest!) I think the #1’s album is a superb compilation album; it features most of her hit singles that have topped the charts. Track-by-track review: Track #1: Sweetheart This is a bonus track. It is a relatively fast moving song featuring JD. This is a good song to have a dance to, though I do get the feeling that JD is trying to up-stage Mariah ...

The idea of this album is to show off Mariah Carey's 12 number one singles hence the name #1's.
I think this album is a superb compilation album; it features most of her singles that have topped the charts.
When I brought this album it cost me £12.99.
Here are a few big hits off this album that made it big in the US Without You, Hero, Fantasy and My All.
I have found her more up to date songs not to be so good like her album 'Rainbow' has more ...

Advantages: Wow!! Disadvantages: Where are the christmas tunes??!!
I know Mariah does not consider it a Greatest Album, but what a voice!!! Who need her entire back-catelogue when her whole career is summed up on one CD?!
She generous girl even encluded that great tune with Whitney Houston (my fave)!! A great voice & not a bad looker either...
But she is right to say that her career is just beginning - so, i suppose it is a bit early on for a greatest hits album. Not many people have a 5 octive voice, which is ...

Great songs Review of1's - Mariah Careyby
SARAH2001
Advantages: Disadvantages:
I bought this album after seeing the track listing. It had all my favourites on one CD. This CD is a must for anyone who has ever like any of her songs. Her voice is so powerful and this album is a mixture of her oldest songs as well as many recent ones, but all of them are classics. Considering that this isn't even a greatest hits album, it is full of all the songs you know Mariah Carey for. An excellent buy for any CD collection. If you haven't ...

This album contains all of the classics, One sweet Day, Hero, Dreamlover and the latest stuff such as Honey. The album itself will have you singing along and you will realise how many records that she has produced and how talented she is. The albums title corresponds to America and may not seem fitting for the UK a sthe only number one single that she has had is 'without you'.But as this cover says this is a tribute tot he fans and the success that ...
