And every big star has a time when everybody write you off: Mariah, Whitney, Madonna, Diana Ross, Cher, Tina Turner, Britney Spears... But they all hit back hard one time or another. It's not that special IMO.
  

Scoring one of the biggest hits of her career and one of the most successful songs in American radio history isn't 'that special'? Particuarly from an artist who had turned into a commercial failure with zero radio support? 
  
None of their comebacks amounted to Mariah's. 
Maybe that's true for the US. But although Get Your Number and Don't Forget About Us were (small) hits, I think Cher did amazingly well with Believe/Strong Enough. Tina did even better with Private Dancer. Madonna's Ray Of Light is one of the biggest albums in history. Looking back now, it seems (at least in Europe) that Ray Of Light and Private Dancer contained more classics. For me Mimi is the best album by far out of all these, but it was nowhere near as huge as Music Box or Daydream.
I agree. "TEOM" was only massive (i.e. her biggest album after "Music Box" and "Daydream") in the US and UK. The performance of the album in Japan is still odd to me. smiley: grin Globally, "Music Box", "Merry Christmas", "Daydream" and "#1's" (like Can wrote) were her biggest moments.
