is this just an impossible dream? too illusive to pursue?Word is, you’re working on new music. Accurate?
Accurate. I have nine or 10 songs, so it’s enough to have an album.
So bored of this Christmas shit
I'd like to chime in
It's Christmas season. If she was doing this all year round I'd be annoyed af. Any other bitch in her place would've packed it up and settled for Xmas YEARS ago. But she's clearly still interested in giving her stans new music.
When what? When is she releasing another album? Her last one was in 2018 (2020 if you include Rarities). If she released one next year then we would have waited 7 years, which isn't bad for this late in her career (5 years if you include Rarities). Point is, it's better if you include Rarities.WHEN?
Rylan is thrilled. Mariah is … less so. They sit opposite each other in remarkably cheap-looking cream boucle armchairs for a notional fireside chat to mark the 30th anniversary of her mega hit All I Want for Christmas Is You. He is energetic, funny – even witty when he gets a chance – and clearly a genuine devotee. She is … none of these things. Mariah sits – regally, do I need to say? – on one of the cheap chairs, a blank-faced queen ready to receive her due from a subject, but so ungraciously that it rapidly becomes dreadful to watch.
She gives Rylan nothing. Nothing. And my God, these are softball questions. There is nothing to distress or vex here. Most of her answers are echoing agreements that someone or something is “amazing”. Some of them are literally just an “Mmm” sound. She sits, unmoving, as if comatose with boredom – or, just possibly, away in her head composing the letters of dismissal to all those complicit in requiring her to sit before the cameras with this Ronald or Rylance person.
Then why isn't she doing that?She has been running on empty for years now. Do you blame her, having the flog the same old Christmas tat year-in year-out, when we know she is a studio rat and get joy from making sultry gems that 5 Millennial queens still get their life to.
Then why isn't she doing that?
