Musical Monday with Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey as a Vegas Showgirl

 
With Valentine's Day coming up, we thought we'd bring you a romantic song... well, a sort-of romantic song. It's more of a break-up-and-moving-on song, especially when taken in context of the mini-movie music video that goes with it. (And we really like this music video, because we like the ones that tell stories rather than just show musicians standing around playing instruments and singing.)

Plus, it's always good to be reminded that it's okay to play Mariah Carey songs when it's not Christmas time.

Now it's that sad time of year...

 ... when Mariah Carey must return to the ocean...

But we can take solace in knowing that she'll be back in time for next Christmas!

Plus, here she is performing one of her great hits. We hope this will tide you over until she's back!

Musical Monday with Mariah Carey


Today's musical selection is a pretty and romantic song that was written and performed by Mariah Carey. It's got an equally pretty and romantic video. I hope you enjoy it.




While watching the video, I wondered if the girl played by Mariah Carey had been rescued from a shipwreck by the handsome, shirtless lighthouse keeper, or if she was some kind of mermaid, or something else was going on. When I went to capture an image to illustrate this post with, a story formed in my head--or, rather, the underlying threat present in THIS story came back into my mind. 

With that in mind, here are screen shots from the "My All" arranged to show a sirens doing what sirens do with the lighthouse keeper.

Musical Monday with Mariah Carey


Then there was that time that Mariah Caray hopped in a time machine and went on television to perform her hit Christmas song "All I Want for Christmas is You" before she was even born.

Picture Perfect Wednesday:
Post-Racial Sexiness



I'm not entirely clear on why Americans of all colors and creeds continue to keep racism alive. For example, I'm not sure why the likes of Halle Berry is considered more black than white--although since she chooses to make a big deal out of her blackness [as exemplified by her Oscar acceptance speech in 2002], I suppose she's more black than white. The same is doubly true for Mariah Carey, who I didn't know was black until I read some articles that made a big deal out of it.

The same is true of Barack Obama, who is just as white as he is black. Yet, he and his mouthpieces like to play the race card every chance they get.

Oh well. America's obsession with race has given me an excuse to tie Picture Perfect Wednesday to Black History Month AND put up photos of two very attractive women.
