Rating: Summary: Mariah's #1's Review: #1's was a collection of songs on a cd by the same name Mariah released in November of 1998 for her fans, to thank them for making them such big hits. This was released in 1999, and it contains all of those hits in video form. Watching the videos truly shows you how Mariah has evolved into many different forms throughout her career, and the creativity behind her music. She has longevity, and she will be around for a long time to come. It's great to have this video, but when will we see a video collection with the videos that didn't hit #1 like Anytime You Need A Friend, Butterfly, etc. As well there is her newest #1 at that time here, Heartbreaker, which was not on the #1's CD. This is a must have for fans.
Rating: Summary: This DVD is "#1" Review: A great collection of essential Mariah videos. This DVD was realesed about a year after the album, so "Heartbreaker" starts off the DVD. "Thank God I Found You" is not featured on this DVD because of the time realesed. Some live performances are substituted for various videos (The rare ones, of course). The special features are a video for Heartbreaker (Remix) and her bio. Bottom line: a good collection with an unrealesed video. A #1 in my book.
Rating: Summary: A disaster Review: Ah,Mariah carey. I will say up front that I am a big mariah carey fan. I have all of her albums, a handful of her singles, and a couple posters. As many people know, Mariah always has been one to totally dominate the charts. She has 15 number one singles,And has sold at least a million copies of each of her albums, certifying them platinum(I'm not so sure about her Christmas Album,though). And as everyone knows, To promote a single, The artist films a video and then add a certain song to the video. Anyway,I ordered this collection. The songs pleases your ear, while the video are meant to appeal visually and be entertaining to watch. Anyway,this video is a collection of all of the videos for the singles by Mariah Carey that have hit #1. Personally, I found it difficult to predict if one of mariah's singles is going to hit another #1. Sadly,This video is a huge waist of money. I was hugely dissapointed with this release. This collection,is, in my opinion and jugement,is a dissapointment. A failure on mariah's part. At the beginning of each Music video is a brief description of the video, a word or two from mariah, that is loosely related to the following video. Mariah mostly talks about how important her fans are to her, and how she couldn't have done this without them, etc. Yawn. Then came the music video. The first song on this tape is the "Heartbreaker" which hit #1 last year, and is the first single off her newest album, "Rainbow". It all started out good. I rather liked the video for "Heartbreaker". It was layed out well, was visually appealing, actually made me laugh, and managed to be unique. The others,however, failed to entertain, or even sustain enough energy to make it watchable. The worst is most likely "emotions". It has a series of images of Mariah (Mariah in a car, Mariah at a party,etc). Each of the images was a different color. As the video progress, The images started to flash faster and faster. I must applaud those who survived this pychodic video. Its truly painful to watch, much less view on a regular basis. I'm surprised I survived this video. It could have probably given me a seizure with all.. that...flashing. Luckely, most of the songs weren't as dangerous, to harm ones sanity, but they were still pretty bad. Mariah Carey in a hot air ballon. Mariah Carey in the middle of the sea. Mariah carey performing weak dance moves in a grassy area. If the last couple of sentences failed to entertain and excite you, It most likely that this collection won't either. In most of these video's, Mariah shows of her legs in very short shorts, or sports a bathing suit. This is entertaining at first,but you might as well get a picture of her from one of her CD's or off the Internet and look at that while listening to her music. Its as rewarding,and cheaper. The only true reason to get this collection is if you're an Mariah Carey fanatic. Think of it as a series of images of Mariah Carey, just very weak pictures, inserted into video format . If you want to spend your money on this wasteful video, save it and buy her wonderful album, "Daydream" or "#1" which by it's self is a cool album. This video collection, however, is painful to watch. Take my word for it, this will do far from entertain.
Rating: Summary: Good Review: And that's just about it...I was kind of expecting a bit more from Mariah. For example, in like in almost every video, Mariah's lip synching is out of phase with the music; and that makes the videos kind of tedious to watch...Other than that, this would be a welcome addition to any fan's collection.
Rating: Summary: #1 Music Video Collection! Review: As far as music video DVD's, this is by far the best one! I would like to see the actual video for "Vision Of Love" on there because I really like it, but that's ok, the rest makes up for it. My favorite videos are "Heartbreaker," "Heartbreaker (Remix)," and "Honey." "Heartbreaker" is a great video, and Mariah looks so hot as the evil Bianca! The fighting scene is hilarious. "Honey" is a really hot video, the video that expressed Mariah's freedom and was actually what she wanted to do! It's great. "Heartbreaker (Remix)" is awesome, and she washes Snoop's car, it's funny. I love this DVD. If you liked this DVD, you whould check out the DVD "Around The World" (also by Mariah) which includes the videos for "The Roof," "Butterfly," and "Breakdown" for those of you that compained that this only had #1 videos on it. I don't think this whole #1 concept was a stupid idea, but I think a 2 or maybe 3 disk DVD set with every music video she's ever done on it would be great... of course at the end of her career, when she's done making videos. This is a really great DVD, a must have for any Mariah fan or music lover. I reccomend it to anyone! Enjoy!
Rating: Summary: Donde esta la version original de "Someday" Review: Este DVD contiene 14 numeros 1 de Mariah, pero algunos videos son de presentaciones en vivo HEARTBREAKER (10/10) Es el video mas divertido que he visto en mi vida, pero no es la version en la que sale Jay-Z. MY ALL (10/10) La cancion es una de mis favoritas, el video es muy bonito, y la primera vez que la escuche me hizo llorar... HONEY (10/10) El video me dejo impactado, pero... Por que no puso el Remix con Mase y The LOX? ALWAYS BE MY BABY (10/10) Es una cancion muy bonita, el video tiene su clasico final felÃz ONE SWEET DAY (9/10) No me gusta mucho esa cancion, pero el video es bueno FANTASY (BAD BOY REMIX) 10/10 Me encanto!, ODB es muy simpatico HERO 10/10 La cancion es divina, muchos de mis amigos odian a Mariah, pero la cancion les gusta mucho, este es el video original DREAMLOVER 9/10 La cancion es una de mis favoritas, pero el video no fue lo que estaba esperando I'LL BE THERE 10/10 De MTV Unplugged, con Trey Lorenz, este es el video original eh? EMOTIONS 10/10 Interesante video... I DON'T WANNA CRY 10/10 OK, OK, OK, Cuando quiero llorar y no puedo solo escucho esta cancion, y listo... El video es uno de los mejores, no se incluye en "The first vision" SOMEDAY 10/10 Pero si en "The first vision" no esta la version original, por que no la puso aquÃ? Aun asi me gusta LOVE TAKES TIME*10/10 Tomado del video "Here's Mariah Carey" esta cancion es casi igual a la original, pero la voz de Mariah es tan magnifica, que parece que esta haciendo playback. VISION OF LOVE*7/10 Luce bien en el Madisson Square Garden pero la cancion esta imcompleta y eso la arruina... HEARTBREAKER REMIX 10/10 Un gran video, es divertido, en el participan Missy Elliott, Da Brat, Snoop Dogg y WC Le hacen falta "Sweetheart" y "I still believe" *De estos no me preocupo por que los grabe del VHS a mi computadora
