Mariah Carey – In Your Feelings (Official Lyric Video)

Featured on the album “Here for It All,” released in September 2025, this track is an R&B number that delicately weaves shifting emotions.

Co-produced with Anderson .Paak, it achieves a soundscape where the warmth of the drums melds with the luster of the strings.

It sings of an inner journey—from moments of heart-flutter and loss to gradually reclaiming confidence in oneself.

Mariah’s signature delicate melisma and richly resonant lower register lend profound conviction to every word.

It’s a song that gently stays by the side of anyone feeling swept away by their emotions.

Released in May 2013, this duet with Miguel drew attention as the lead single from the album “Me.

I Am Mariah… The Elusive Chanteuse.” Built on just clipped guitar and minimal rhythm, it exudes a vintage soul vibe.

Here, she intentionally reins in her upper-register power, opting for nuance and weaving an exquisite harmony with Miguel.

The stripped-down arrangement highlights how well their vocal tones complement each other.

It peaked at No.

15 in the U.S.

and reached the top 10 in Australia and New Zealand.

A perfect track for a calm afternoon unwind or as a driving soundtrack.

Mariah Carey – 100% HD (Music Video + Lyrics)

Even in the 2020s, when you think of a “global songstress,” Mariah Carey is still the first name that comes to mind.

In Japan as well, Mariah’s popularity and recognition are overwhelming.

When it comes to her Olympics-related songs, many might recall the historic classic “Hero,” which TBS used as its theme song during the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics.

This time, let me introduce a track released in 2010 called “100%.” It may be less well known compared to “Hero,” but it was released as a promotional single to support Team USA at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, and it’s a hidden gem that was not included on any of her studio albums.

It’s an emotional ballad quintessentially Mariah, and the gospel-tinged chorus at the end along with her ultra-high notes are truly breathtaking.

As for what the title “100%” signifies, read the lyrics closely and discover its true meaning!
