She has an amazing voice when she sticks to three or so octaves. Her squealing is not for me and not singing as that word is traditionally defined. I also have respect for her because though I loath the way she dresses, I think she is a genuine person. the DJ's here in Atlanta that interviewed her were later and in private very complimentary of her and said she was real nice and not really a diva, etc.

I cannot believe you do not even recognize the academic quality to her voice. Same thing for Celine Dion - I am not a fan of her stuff, but I clearly recognize the superior quailty of that voice, which I think she underuses actually. But, to each their own

I don't I HATE HATE HATE her voice - it seriously triggers like violent rages within me

It's like Kramer's Mary Hart induced siezures

Anyway - I think Celine Dion's voice is okay - have no issue with her. Mariah? on the other hand? I hate.

I honestly don't have a good reason - something about her just really really rubs me the wrong way

HEY! That's MY line!

I can't take credit for the one about Satan's balls, though!

I'm with Deanna here. Mariah's voice, to me, is like nails on a chalkboard. Celine, I agree, is a gifted singer. She has an incredible range (8 octives is a rarity) - I don't often like her choice of songs, but I can listen to her voice.

And I agree - to each his/her own. No offense to the Mariah fans. Just my personal taste.

I used to love Mariah's voice...but now she kinda just whispers, instead of hitting those notes she used to...

That's kind of how I feel, too. The last CD of hers that I liked (and I honestly didn't like all of it, mainly the hits) was Butterfly, and after that something just went wrong to me. It seemed like she was either copying what she had done before or simply singing a song that was not as good as others. Butterfly might have been her peak. When I saw the first video for this new album, my reaction was Is she trying to be the poor man's Beyonce? because that's what it seemed like to me. It really seemed that she was trying to cash in on the most recent styles and not actually using her own instead. Of course, that one song might not be an indication of the entire album, but I have to say that I've lost interest. I still respect her vocal abilities, though. I think few are born with that level of talent. She has certainly proven with past live performances that she knows how to use hers well, too.

There is nothing academic about that pop tart and you know it
...least of all her singing. Been there, done that, heard it a thousand times. Diva, diva, diva, blech!

I second Deanna's sentiment. The girl has no class. That's probably the main reason I dislike her.
