down our picks for the top 10 Mariah
Carey songs for this list we’ve chosen
our entries based on a combination of
the artists fan favorites and their most
commercially successful songs
number ten always be my baby
with her 11th number-one hit Mariah
Carey proved her musical talents could
not be stopped
a particular note was the songs use of
the double voice effect which layered
her higher lead vocals over her
previously recorded lower background
vocals
with its pop and R&B flavors the
daydream single is definitely a
highlight from her fifth ever
barring her voice with sweet lyrics
about standing by her man then sealed
the deal of its chart success
number nine dream lover give me
Oh
after experimenting with soul and gospel
with her previous effort emotions carry
returned to straight-up pop and R&B with
this hit
instead of focusing on heartbreak mariah
hopes for someone better in the future
dream lover took off and became her
seventh number-one hit on the Billboard
Hot 100 and one of the songs of the
summer critics loved the song as well a
claiming its hook and production as well
as Mimi’s restraint when it came to her
trademark vocal acrobatics
number eight vision of love
Kevin Mendoza foolish this song
premiered as her debut single and it
instantly catapulted Mariah to
superstardom it was more than she give
them to me while visions of love’s beat
and instrumentation have the typical pop
sound of the era Kerry’s voice showed
more range and depth than many other
artists of the time it reached the hot
100 top spot in just nine weeks and
nabbed the songstress three Grammy nods
and one win goes to me
to the nurse
critics have since cited the track as
one that helped shape modern pop music
and influenced many artists thereafter
number seven all I want for Christmas is
you not every pop star can say they have
their own Christmas classic but Mariah
sure can
instead of recording a holiday standard
like most artists she co-wrote this
4-minute number and helped produce it as
well
with lyrics declaring that presents and
material things mean nothing as long as
she has her love all I want for
Christmas is you as a fun and sexy
feeling to the holiday season
Oh
in addition to its worldwide success the
song is also one of the best-selling
singles in music history
number six honey mommy this song marked
another shift in Mariah’s career as it
pushed her towards a more hip-hop
influenced style written with artists
like q-tip and Puff Daddy as well as
super producer Stevie J honey also had a
more sensual sound than her earlier
number-one hits as its sampled tracks by
the world’s famous Supreme Team and the
treacherous tree
both its lyrics and accompanying music
video became topics of much speculation
as they appear to be a statement about
her freedom as an artist and woman amid
marriage woes
number five heartbreaker
featuring jay-z Raya both co-wrote and
collaborated with jay-z for this track
off rainbow marking the first time she
released a single featuring a rap artist
yeah she went on shop with Jade Lake box
with jay-z going up pillow fight in the
middle what a night she wanna drive my
bands with five of her friends she wanna
creep past the block spying again the
song is a classic he said she said story
with Kerri singing about being addicted
to her bad-boy lover another billboard
number one heartbreaker achieved even
more popularity thanks to a creative
music video that reportedly cost 2.5
million dollars to make
number four hero
this song almost wasn’t hers in fact
Hiro was originally written for Gloria
Estefan and Mariah didn’t really connect
to its sound until she gave it more of
an R&B influence when you face
and we’re glad she kept it because it
has become one of her most motivating
ballets
come
far from being cheesy its lyrics and
carries vocals are just bouncy enough to
be uplifting
so it’s no wonder it was her eighth
chart-topper and a go to track to mark
graduation ceremonies and other
sentimental occasions for years
didn’t mean it number three we belong
together stupid I was foolish I wasn’t
like the true diva she is Mariah proved
she’s always ready for a comeback
imagine the city with Sam assume her
lyrics and the hip-hop meets pop vibe of
this song along with it’s stunning music
video made critics and audiences rethink
the idea that her career was over
not only did we belong together become
her 16th number one smash it also became
the second longest-running number one on
the American charts with 14 weeks at the
Billboard Hot 100 top spot
and I
number two one sweet day with boys two
men while mariah has shown throughout
the years that she knows the power of a
good collaboration it’s this song with
boys to men that remains ingrained in
our musical memories
one sweet day was virtually inescapable
in the mid 90s and quickly became a
staple on every chart
not surprising considering how
beautifully the vocals blend together
and the inspirational and sentimental
nature of the track
Carrie definitely outdid herself with
this hit which still holds the honor of
being the longest-running number-one hit
on the Billboard Hot 100 chart at 16
weeks
before we unveil our number one tip here
are a few honorable mentions
Oh
number one fantasy bad boy remix
featuring ODB in terms of the perfect
pop meets R&B sound this song just
crushes all the competition even her own
original version to help her cross over
mariah paired with an unlikely
collaboration partner ODB from the
wu-tang clan hey Mariah go back this is
an Alaia fantasy hot like fire by
sampling its beat from genius of love by
the TomTom club fantasy achieved it’s
funky feel while old dirty bastards raps
gave it a hip hop edge it’s the perfect
mix of sweet lyrics a danceable beat and
the sexiness of a 90s hit
one which was also significant in
bringing R&B and hip-hop to the masses
