...to and maybe dance! my all is a ballad that was very popular for mariah, her vocals are amazing on it ,and the rest of the album.
there is a kind of dream like quality to 'butterfly', especially on the song ' fourth of july' . i can listen to it over and over again and it never gets boring.
the music can appeal to lots of people, it has songs that people can really relate to and i think mariah has really proved her songwriting and producing skills. she has really made the sound of the music her own, i havent heard anything like it.
i would highly recommend this album, its quite possibly mariahs best....

Advantages: Not a cd you will regret buying Disadvantages: that all her other albums werent as good
...Oh Kylie! God bless you Kylie. I knew you could do it, I knew you had it in you. I’m talking about this CD of course. Light Years is one of my favourite Cds, and I’ve got a lot, due to a personal shopping habit that I really should get treated.
Best tracks on the album are butterfly, and I’m so High, which is not to underrate the rest of the album, (skipping tracks one and two, which though did chart well, are not particular favourites of mine)
It really puts me in a groovy jig about in the kitchen whilst doing the washing up and dreaming about the weekend kind of mood. Fingers crossed your next album will do the same, though its got a lot to live up to.
Long live DISCO!!!...

...Out of all her albums, this would have to be the most memorable one with hits such as 'Dream Lover', 'Hero', 'Anytime you need a friend', 'Never forget You' and 'Without You' just to name a few.
Mariah has a lovely voice and you really have to be in the 'mood' to listen to her powerfully emotional songs, if you are in the emotional mood you can expect tears!
I must say that after getting her recent album 'Butterfly', 'Music Box' is still the winner for Mariah.
If you're looking for a particular song of Mariah's, you're better off buying the single, however, if you're looking for a nice slushy album - this one would do the trick nicely....
