Man after hearing Migrate I want a whole album of club bangers from Mimi image

Three words: We Belong Together

There's just no argument here, everyone knows Mariah's strength has been - and continues to be - her ballads.

Well unless there is a ballad that has the power of WBT...I dont see the point of releasing it over this club banger that has similar power!!! So if the album has on such a ballad then hip hip hoooray but if it doesnt...they need to Migrate!!!

Yeah I edited my post and wrote WBT and FLAB, but the other ballads weren't all that TEOM, I preferred the up tempos. Also most of the ballads on CB I personally hated.

Either way, if you look at the big picture, Arabian, there's still no question. Her biggest hits have been ballads.

It's Like That and Say Something would have gone straight to the top of the charts if that weren't the case. Preferring a style is one thing, but stats don't lie.

If you were to ask most people (in the general public) about Mariah and what songs they associate with her, more likely it would be Hero, or We Belong Together, not Honey or It's Like That. Because it's always been - and will always be - about that voice. People want to hear Mariah sing.

I have a feeling L.A wants "Bye Bye" as the second single but Mariah wants "Migrate". So I'm guessing that they agreed to let B96 play it to see the kind of feedback it got. If this get's amazing feedback from B96, Youtube and the net then it just might become the 2nd single and rightfully so.

Hm, interestig notion, but Mariah herself said she's releasing a ballad as a 2nd single cause she "ain't stupid" and that Migrate is "just a fun song".I wish you were right, though!

I don't know why Mariah wouldn't want Bye Bye as the second single when she said so herself? It's not like she's forced to write and sing these ballads, she loves doing ballads.

It's true, her ballads are what she is known for. Three of her four signature songs are ballads (Hero, OSD, WBT - AIWFCIY being her other signature song). Her ballads are usually her best songs, too. Aside from SIO and O&O (which are midtempo jams really), the best songs on TEOM were Circles and FLAB...but that's not to discredit her uptempos...some of her best songs have been uptempos (Dreamlover, Emotions, Fantasy, Honey, Sprung, and now Migrate)...but the general public buys Mariah for her ballads...so while I want Migrate to be the second single, it's a song that will spend the most weeks at the top of the digital songs charts, but probably won't sell the album like Bye Bye probably will. Look at Flo Rida's Low, which was insanely popular and successful, but it couldn't sustain album sales.

May be so, but why would they celebrate TMB's success by playing Migrate on the radio| right now?If it\s ballads, indeed, that do the sales sustain trick, they should be giving all push and exposure to Bye Bye and not distract buyers.
However, after the VERY soft TMB, something should hit hard and that's exactly what Migrate is , otherwise the album may look too boring, calm, soft, mellow, ...etc.

The more i listen, the more i love this song. It's the song i've been wanting Mariah to do for the last six years. Also, the most i listen, the more i think this song will be just the song to rejuvenate radio after the Bye Bye is released. This as the third single will breathe new life into the project around june/july, just like SIO did in 2005, but since Migrate is sooo immediate, it'll have a much bigger impact.

I'm not saying she doesn't love "Bye Bye" but she knows Radio is gonna eat that one up. I think we all know MC likes to take chances and do different thing's but she let's the lable stop her sometimes and plays it safe. It has nothing to do with her not liking "Bye Bye" or the Ballads it just you can tell "Migrate" is speical to her and I can see why. This is totally different for her and yet what she been trying to achive for a long time now a true Hip-Hop club banger that will make even the people that say she shouldn't do hip-hop stop and admit they were wrong cause this track is so good.

Only thing is they won't be able to keep it off the air for months to come to let Bye Bye run its course first and when they eventually release it , it won't be new and fresh and will have been played somewhat already.

I feel completely insane, but listening to Touch My Body directly after Migrate makes my love for TMB grow even more. I think that all the right decisions were made with this project. TMB is sooo fantastic to me right now. Maybe it's because i'm so damn tired and on a high from Migrate....but i think this album is going to be HUUUGE
