Ken Lee and We Belong Together are most sensible choices for the final round...with that being said, it's not guaranteed how one or the other will do!!!

AIWFCIY would play TO your favour more than it not, I think lmao.

I honestly think people will vote it regardless of what time of year it is. Whether they actually listen to it or not, is another case entirely. But I doubt that'd affect you with such a popular song!

Glad You Need Me did well! Was worried people might not know it and not give it a chance.
Managed to miss the voting again somehow though :')

AWFCIY would be great for the finale, also think We Belong Together would be a good choice too though.

We Belong Together is my favourite but I genuinely feel like AIWFC would get more support (both honest love and ironic stanning) Gaga.png

Hopefully everyone can determine how much they like it or not in relation to other songs, regardless of the time of year it is!

Ooh no I wasn't, this is interesting - thanks for posting! wub.gif

When I did a rough plan before this all began, I only had 'Vision of Love' as a possibility from 'Mariah Carey' - mainly due to my lack of familiarity with this era (I think I'd only heard the album once or twice in full at most, a very long time ago) so I'm also quite surprised that her debut got the most representation in the end! Prisoner and You Need Me were great suggestions, and I'm glad that did well and that even as the host for Mariah I ended up making some discoveries too.

With hindsight I probably shouldn't have dipped into 'Music Box' twice (although I genuinely didn't see 'Dreamlover' flopping like it did cry.gif ) - maybe that was the round where I should have gone a bit more modern, maybe 'Touch My Body'? thinking.gif Or if I'd continued with retro Mariah, perhaps 'Emotions' instead (and then every 90s album would have been represented *.* )

Oops at nothing from 'The Emancipation of Mimi' too, what with it being such a fan favourite album! We'll never know now, but I do wonder how 'We Belong Together' would have been received in this round (or indeed in earlier rounds, if I'd always intended to send AIWFCIY last).
