CB: In 2007 or 2008, I started listening to R&B on this road trip with my dad because we couldn't agree on anything else. I smoked weed and listened to "Fantasy" and felt something I'd never felt before [laughs]-- yeah, that makes me sound so ignorant. But then I slowly started gravitating more toward female singers, because I was able to relate. In medieval Christian thought, it was assumed that the better you were as a singer, the purer your heart was. I don't necessarily think that's true, but Mariah Carey has the voice of someone who has never done evil.
"Just because something might not have a deep philosophical meaning doesn't mean it's not important or relevant."
She concluded with thoughts on how Mariah Carey changed her life:
Quote:
And yet I know very few adult males who consider themselves serious 'music guys' who don't laugh when I say I like Mariah Carey. Why? Because she's beautiful and people like her. Therefore she must be selling sex, right? So obviously her music is terrible, right? Ugh. The first time I heard Mariah Carey it shattered the fabric of my existence and I started Grimes.
Messiah Carey impact spreads all across genres.

Too bad she deleted her Tumblr, she always post Lana's videos.
When asked who her recent musical inspirations have been lately, she was eager to name a few famous faces that have influenced her. "This is last year, but I'm really stuck on Lana Del Rey. I've been listening to that one a lot more and kind of stuck on the sound of that record," she (Shania Twain) said.

One legend influencing the other.
Such incredible impact in less than two years.
And not too much. Oblivion is better than anything on M83's last album!
And to think I didn't like it at first listen
