...was “Dreamlover” where Mariah is rolling around in a cornfield in jean shorts, (which she seems to do a lot) Tons of hits followed, the classic cover of “without you” and her own smash “Hero” After the success of the album she began to get annoyed, as she had no control of what she did professionally. After the release of “Daydream” the third album she took control. She spread her wings and became a “Butterfly” Instantly her image changed, there was no more Mariah in jean shorts or with curly wurly hair, just slick, sexy and seductive. I have to say at this point I think her music did go downhill, but then came Rainbow……. (Finally she’s got to it your thinking!)

Advantages: Immediately accessible, beautifully crafted songs, pay what you want Disadvantages: Not a landmark album by the band's standards
...Radiohead were not the first band to release their music digitally or free of charge. But to put it simply, they were the first band of international significance. Such was the reaction on the 1st October when a short blog post from guitarist, Jonny Greenwood, signalled the bands intentions for new download-only release, In Rainbows.
