The first single from Mariah Carey's anticipated E=MC² album hit the airwaves on Florida radio station Wild 95.5 today, but it's maybe missing some of her signature sound. "Touch My Body" is an upbeat ballad but the lyrics are a little laughable. Example: "I'll hug your body tighter than my favorite jeans." What do you think of Mariah's new single — love it or leave it?

That's horribly boring,don't let me start with the lyrics...
|
|
|
5
I mean "i will hunt you down"?? Really?
|
 |
6
I like it! I'm sure I'll like it even more with the more times I listen to it!

Don't care for this song, I felt like the beat was one of those that were "Pre-Set" on my piano. Normally I do like her music, but I'll pass on this particular song.

I'm so over Mariah right now. She was really good when she first came out, and the best thing about her was her incredible talent. As of at least 5 years ago, she is the highest paid "video ho" out there right now. When she gets puts her clothes back on, turns off that damned wind machine and gets back to just making the great music that she knows she can make, then I'll be willing to listen.

Well, if it were on in the background, I wouldn't try to kill myself or anything.

Kaenai - I typed out a comment with the same sentiment as yours and then deleted it. Thank goodness you stated it so articulately!
|

12
lol - I had a lot more to say, but i figured I'd better cut it short before I got banned. xD
|
 |
13
I love it. It's catchy! Granted, I like it more when she actually sings. She's looking great for being nearly forty, though!
|
 |
14
i like that song......
|
 |
15
I like it
|

16
Ugh, this is the latest crap from Mariah? Use your talent Mariah! We know you had it back in the day but what the hell happened...well, besides you taking most of your clothes off these days?
|
 |
17
i didn't even have to listen to it to know i wouldn't like it. i don't like any ounce of her work.
|
 |
18
used to love her but i am so over her now.
|
 |

It's such a shame that a person with an amazing gift like Mariah doesn't even use it. Instead of flexing her vocals with what she's best at, she uses it for Britney-like moans and whispery raps. Please, take me back to the early to mid-90's when she was still worth a damn.
|
 |
20
I'll put that on my list of music NOT to download.
|
  |
21
Bad....very BAD!
|
 |
22
Well, Mariah's never really been known for writing brilliant lyrics, but why is she pulling a Britney here? She has the voice! She should use it!! What the heck is up with MC? This song should be on Heidi Montag's cd; it's that laughable. Hopefully the next song released will be better...actually, I hope that she rethinks this one.
|
 |
23
If thats the single, i can't imagine how bad the rest will be....
|
 |
24
I don't love it but I don't hate it. The tempo was a bit strange to me but the song might grow on me. We will see
|
 |
25
I just don't like her anymore. Her old stuff, like "Always Be My Baby" and "Hero" are great; she just doesn't have it anymore.
|
 |
26
It's cute, but I'd wish she used her amazing voice more than just with those talking/singing songs.
|
 |
27
lame.
|
 |
28
leave it. but not for the reasons it's listed up there. it lacks something...TALENT, anyone??
|
 |
29

'Well, if it were on in the background, I wouldn't try to kill myself or anything' Yeah, its not horrible.. not loving it though.
|
|
|
32
I love the 'I will hunt you down' bit.. That's not creepy and stalkerish at ALL
|
 |
33
Boooooo!
|
 |
34
This is decent, but, not anywhere as good as her other stuff. I don't hate it. However, I don't love it either.
|
 |
35
yes, but not as much as her last single!!
|
 |
36
Love the song and Love Mimi!!
|
 |
37
I dont like it... but OMG my best friend Ben is MiMi's Superfan ... I have heard about this song since way b4 it even came out... I am highly disappointed, but Ben thinks she can do no wrong...
|
 |
38
I love this song, its stuck in my head already... I think i like it so much because it is different... the Lyrics arent " oh i'll love you" blah blah like normal, theyre light and funny.. " catch this flick on youtube" lol. Shes brilliant. I cant wait to hear more of this album.

I'm a fan but I don't care for this. Someone said it would be like We Belong Together and it's not even close. It sounds techno. I'm with smootchick. She is much more talented than this. No wonder they have been pushing this back. Plus the title of the album, E=MC2. I get it but a lot of people won't identify with it. Yeah, what will the rest be like?
|
 |

YAWN! Another R&B song that sounds the same. I can't wait until Hip Hop dies down. Way Overrated!
|
|
|
41
Please don't tell me that this is going to be playing on the radio every ten songs for the next few months. I got the heebie jeebies every time she sang, "I will hunt you down." Can you imagine that part being a ringtone?
|
 |
42
She's not known for writing brilliant music? Give me a break.. she writes all of her songs, and is the best selling music artist. How can she not write music well? And as for the song, I'd have to give it time to get used to. It's ok... not what I expected, but it's different.
|
|
|
43
and most of you people are being biased towards her image... just because she's not the "old" mariah doesn't mean she doesn't have what it takes.
|
 |
44
Mariah, you've got an amazing voice, but this sh!t is TRASH! Quit trying too hard to be sexy!
|
 |
45
it's so awful.
|
 |
46
i like the chorus, but the rest is actually really boring... and normally i LOVE mariah...
|
 |
47
I'm excited for her comeback, but I think I've heard this song before...amongst her previous songs.

LOVE HER! always excited to hear music from a true talent! (and accomplished songwriter).
