Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Daydream (álbum de Mariah Carey)" in Portuguese language version.
Carey became famous for singing notes in the seventh octave, yet “Melt Away” showed us exactly what she could do at the low end of her range.
The “Open Arms” cover is a pretty good call, “Always Be My Baby” is forever (way moreso than “Forever”) and Boyz II Men duet “One Sweet Day” is the ‘90s pop equivalent of Jimmy Page and Eddie Van Halen swapping guitar solos. But Daydream commits the cardinal sin of following “Fantasy” with 11 songs that are not “Fantasy,” and that we cannot forgive -- not even Kanye would try to get away with that shit.
I'm gonna sing a song from the 'Daydream' album I've never sung before," Mariah said as she introduced the song "Looking In," an intimate piano ballad. "Do we have anyone from the Lambly in the house? I wrote it in about 15 minutes, and it requires a bit more stability than I have right now. I kinda got in trouble for writing this song so I'm gonna try.
"One Sweet Day," Mariah Carey's duet with Boyz II Men enters the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart at No. 1. Carey becomes the first recording artist in history to have two consecutive singles debut at No. 1 following ``Fantasy, also from her No. 1 album "Daydream."
Its success will be much deserved, as Carey's increasingly mature and soulful delivery effectively melts into Boyz II Men's wall-to-wall harmonies, combining to give depth to the song's lyrics, which offer a heartfelt farewell to friends who have passed.
Mariah Carey collected multiple Hot 100 No. 1s from an incredible four consecutive studio sets (excluding her 1994 holiday release "Merry Christmas"). She notched two from 1993's "Music Box" ("Dreamlover," "Hero"); three from 1995's "Daydream" ("Fantasy," "One Sweet Day," with Boyz II Men, "Always Be My Baby"); two from 1997's "Butterfly" ("Honey," "My All") and two from 1999's "Rainbow" ("Heartbreaker," featuring Jay Z, and "Thank God I Found You," featuring Joe and 98 Degrees).
"Daydream" spent one lone week on top in October 1995.
Carey's No. 7 start is an improvement on the No. 10 entry of 2001's "Glitter" and 1999's "Rainbow" (No. 8) but a far cry from the No. 1 status of 1995's "Daydream" and 1993's "Music Box."
... a title currently held by Mariah Carey's 1995 album "Daydream," which moved 760,000 copies during Christmas week of that year. Now, however, with Spears shipping somewhere in the neighborhood of 3 million units, she stands a chance for "Oops! ... I Did It Again" to become only the fifth album in the nine -year era of SoundScan to have a million- selling week..
