I got her debut relatively late, in the year 2000 for 35DM lol ($17). I simply did not have enough time nor enough memories to let it impact on my life as much as the other albums did. I remember vividly how I anticipated Rainbow, Glitter, CB, Butterfly, #1's.
I remember how I would sit in my room, lights off, and listen to when you believe over and over and over and over.
I remember how I threw a tantrum at my local record store when I wanted to buy TEOM and couldn't find it on its release day. I had to ask a very rude clerk and once I had it I went full on aspergers.
I remember how i would visit the Virgin Glitter promo site every 2 second only to play a 90 second snippet of Reflections over and over and over again.
I remember how I wanted to jump into my stereo when she hit the high note in BOTH.
My life evolved around her music. I remember how I couldn't be jolly and happy during a classtrip in the summer of 2001 with Mariah's breakdown unfolding. I was sent back home again due to my steep depression and worries for her.
I said it once and I am saying it again: I am mentally ill. But as long as I know I am ill, I can continue my daily routine of worship bc in the end it only affects me, and nobody else.
Hence, when I say I wil faint seeing her live in 2016, I mean it. I will have multiple panic attacks, start hyperventilating and then fall down from the gallery and probably kill 2-3 people in the process.
I need to be instituionalised, i really do. I am also a Mariahpedia and whenever haterz trying to shade her, i will respond with a Mariah fact and clock them for tea.
I kiss the Glitter flag that I own goodnight every evening. Wherever I go, I have my MIMI playlists with me. Whatever I do, I ask myself, what would Mariah do?
This whole craze. This part of me started with Music Box, it peaked with Glitter and re-peaked with MIAM. Her debut only played a little part in this. I own it, I cherish it, I play it once and again, but it did not make me who I am.
