Say what you will about Mariah, but it's hard to deny her voice, especially on hits like "Always Be My Baby" and "Dreamlover." For those of you who have wondered if there are any deep album cuts between the singles, Sony Legacy has The Ballads, an 18-track collection spanning Mariah Carey's 19-year career, including nine number one hits. The compilation also includes Carey's notable duets, "One Sweet Day," with Boyz II Men, "When You Believe" with Whitney Houston, and "How Much" with Usher, as well as others.
I love this CD. I love the 'Thank God I Found You' version, 'Reflections', and 'The Roof'. In fact, all these gorgeous and timeless ballads are classics and blend together, but slightly different, to create a nostaligic, but modern R & B feel, that will keep you singing. **** stars!!!
