Friday is gonna be a big day for annoying people (me)!

Omg this is too much to take in! :cheeseblock: Ariana and Mariah on a non-Christmas song is a dream! Particularly on a bop like this... I'm ready :cheeseblock:

Just ordered a CD single! :cheer:

 

Omg what a dream! :cheeseblock:

Bring on tomorrow :cheer:

Oh this version isn’t really doing it for me! :cry: I imagined a duet to work beautifully in theory, but I find Mariah’s vocal approach to be a bit like a bull in a china shop against the original and quite delicate sounding Ariana vocals. It feels discordant to me.

 

Ultimately I wish they’d worked together on a different song, from scratch.

Oh god you’re completely right with that bull in a china shop analogy! :drama:

 

Unfortunately I’m finding this quite messy as well :( agreed that Ari’s performance on this song is quite dialled down, so Mariah really going for it doesn’t really mesh well.

 

I do stan Ari repping one of Mariah’s best albums though:

Mariah why are you SHOUTING

Yeah it's not working for me either, disappointed :(

I love it, Mariah is belting and giving the power a house song needs

I'm not feeling this either, this version really drags down the quality :(

 

It kinda feels like when Metro Boomin's 'Creepin' was remixed by Diddy last year. Similarly to 'yes, and?', I loved the original but I hated the remix.

Down to #9 in today’s update. I hope it can stay top 10.

#10 today so spends a fifth week in the U.K. top 10!

Shoulda been a duet from the start!! Easy #1 first week in a lot of countries that way

This kind of sounds like a AI style mashup.

 

On paper you’d think Ariana x Mariah would really work but this just wasn’t the song for it. If they ever do something like this again hopefully it’ll be on a ballad which will draw out their strengths more and they’d be able to compliment one another a lot more.

I actually like it

I am disappointed the Mariah Carey edit hasn't worked better.

I agree was expecting something better!

Rises into the top 5 in the mids thanks to other songs going to ACR / Mariah remix boost

More remixes are coming:

the first two names do not excite my taste in dance music but I did like the majority of The Blessed Madonna's work with Dua so hoping I enjoy that one
