5.0 out of 5 stars One of Mariah's best songs!!!!, February 23, 2005

This review is from: Someday (Audio CD)

I remember when I first heard this song in 1991. I came home from school and turned on MTV or VH1 and not knowing Mariah had an album before Emotions, I was surprised to see this video and very excited because the song was cool. Then at the very end of the song I heard that part where she hits that really high note and it totally blew me away! I totally love that high note and it sounded so awesome at the very end of the song. I heard her do it on the Emotions CD and loved it and was so happy that she did it in Someday also.

After seeing that video for the first time, I had to get the album. A while later, sometime in 1991, I got the tape and I totally loved the whole tape but the song Someday was a totally different version than the music video version and I was very disappointed because my favorite part of Someday is when she hits that high note and I totally loved the music itself and on the album, it's cut off and the music was changed, the song fades as she hits that note. For the longest time, I wanted to get the single. Finally, a few years ago I went to a pawn shop and found this CD single with the Jackswing versions which is so much better than the album version and it also has Alone In Love but I just totally love the Jackswing versions of Someday because of that high note and the unique music! Someday is one of my favorite songs from her. Mariah has such a beautiful voice and she is the most unique singer ever because of that high note! Keep it up Mariah!!!

The tracklisting is as follows:

1. Someday (New 7" Jackswing) (4:40)-My all time favorite version of Someday that has the MTV and VH1 music video!

2. Someday (New 7" Straight) (4:16)-A version which sounds almost exactly like the album version but I hear horns in it, I don't hear that electric guitar which was in the album version and I do hear that really high note because the song is a little extended from the album version but I still love The Jackswing versions best because of the music itself!

3. Someday (New 12" Jackswing) (6:55)-The extended version of my favorite version of Someday, which happens to be my 2nd favorite version of Someday and it also had a music video that wasn't shown on VH1 or MTV to my knowlege but it can be seen on the 1990 VHS tape, The First Vision from Mariah Carey which I also highly recommend!!

4. Someday (Pianoapercapella-New) (4:17)-Mariah's vocals echo in this, there is a cool piano at first and then you hear a keyboard, it's a really cool version. There are parts where you just hear Mariah's voice.

5. Alone In Love (4:11)-I really love this slow ballad from Mariah's debut album from 1990. It's kind of sad but Mariah sings with so much emotion and soul, it's amazing!!!

Back in 1990 alot of the acts were all were just looks and no talent. What a breathe of fresh air when Mariah burst onto the scene. This song showed the variety of musical elements that Mariah would eventually incorporate into her music. She's not just a ballad singer.
