Bland, and further conformation that Luther cannot have romantic chemistry with any woman.

I gasped.
WHY didn't I give it a 10?
I don't even know what to say.

"Obsessed": Uh, no.
Loved from the second I heard it; should have been MUCH higher.
"I Know Want You Want": A decent pop-rap song that was the precursor to her comeback....
"Through the Rain" Finally; this and "Hero" should switch places at least.
"My All/Stay While": Better than the original which needs to go before we hit in the top 40.
"Get Your Number": I thought the guy was Nelly.
Either way, I didn't mind this.
"Reflections (Care Enough)": Nice; pretty deep.
"When Christmas Comes"/"Oh Santa": The queen of the holidays.
Cute, but we don't need to say which Christmas song trumps the rest of these.
"There's Got to Be a Way": And people say Mariah didn't have socially conscious songs.
It is kind of boring, though.
I'm surprised "Say Somethin' " hasn't left yet! I hope it makes the top 40!
Sis, they did us dirty with this ****.

The standard summer with a sample Mariah "uptempo," with a few of her standard lyrical tricks - devotion to a man, allusions to orgasms. What's really interesting about Loverboy is that one can actually hear her LOSING HER MIND.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Loverboy almost made Top 40.

I just gave it a 10 for the sheer hilarity.
Any song where Mariah makes reference to having a sugar daddy is worth it.

I enjoy "Loverboy," but it sounds so weak next to "Heartbreaker" or "Fantasy" or "Emotions."

Nooooooo! I was hoping it would go top 40.
You can not only hear her going crazy, but you can SEE her going crazy:
The kaleidescope scenes have me DYING.
It makes her look MENTAL.

Mariah looks a mess in that video. They couldn't find ONE pair of shorts that actually fit?

Endless Love - Aw, I actually kind of enjoy this song. But it
is kind of forgettable.
Say Somethin' - BLASPHEMY. Deserved to be higher than Loverboy.
Loverboy - It's about damn time this left.
I don't know
what I was thinking when I gave it a ten. The remix *****, tho.

Wow, I was the only one who gave Loverboy a 0
That song is so ****ing trashy and messy. The Remix is even Worse TBH. The entire idea is so scattered.
Say Somethin'
Endless Love was a great tho
