On this day, 15 years ago, "Always Be My Baby" topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart and became Mariah's eleventh #1 single.

Such a perfect anniversary for this timeless MC classic, especially considering how closely it shares a birthday anniversary with dem babies.

Okay, sorry. That was my moment for the day. smiley: embarassed

Comedian? I mean yes she's funny in our (the fans) eyes, but she's no comedian LOL

Love this song! Classic, timeless, one of her signature songs and rightfully so. I love the bridge. And the song is just so catchy. I swear everyone loves this song.

Still sounds so fresh, and my favorite single from my fav album Daydream (I go back and forth between Daydream and Butterfly for fav albums, but usually it's Daydream).

I love how the video is kind of like the lyrics of Underneath the Stars. Does that make sense? LOL

The whole summer night, young love, the video for ABMB could have been the video to Underneath the Stars.

Also, I think she looks gorgeous in this video. I think she is stunningly beautiful here, and I love the simple shots by the campfire and on the tire swing.

Anyway, one of my fav songs ever. So glad it's one of her #1 hits.

The summer setting - especially that camp fire - was perfect for the song. As a director, Mariah seems to really capture the feel of her songs (the amusement park for "Fantasy," the group camp fire for "ABMB," the dark, artistic feel of "The Roof").

Why the heck did she decide to stop directing / conceiving of her own videos anyways? She had a good run there.

That's a good question. "ABMB," "Breakdown" and "The Roof" are easily two of her best videos, and she had a hand in directing them all. "Honey" was her concept. "Fantasy" isn't necessarily a great video, but it definitely captures the feel of the song and in that sense is successful. Didn't she direct the "ISB" remix video, too?

Wait. I think she did co-direct the "UOMF" video, which was one of her best videos of the decade.

One of her best songs and videos...   She looked very girl next door...    Time flies, 15 years and this song still sounds so fresh.
