Say Somethin' MARIAH CAREY Producer(s): The Neptunes Genre: POP Label: Island (album track) Just as we are singing mighty praises over Mariah Carey's sterling new gospel ballad release, "Fly Like a Bird"—in which the re-crowned diva delivers a consummate vocal—Island Def Jam distracts radio with a second, simultaneous single intended for rhythmic top 40. "Say Somethin' " is apparently meant to be an event record, a collaboration with Pharrell Williams and Snoop Dogg, accompanied by a glam videoclip that follows a Louis Vuitton-draped Carey traipsing across Paris. But underneath the surface, the scantly produced drum'n'bass album track is simply a series of gimmicks, the kind employed to boost lesser artists' careers. The melody line is palpable and Carey's vocal is appreciable, but "Somethin' " is mostly a reminder of a time when Carey required others to boost her chart heft. Those days are over. "Fly Like a Bird" is a classic; why muddy the water with this release? 大致上是说,虽然Say Somethin'的噱头十足,有天王制作饶舌,加上LV名牌全副武装, 但是似乎有那麽一点肤浅,好像玛丽亚一定需要这些才能打造排行榜佳绩一样,反而没办法 将她已经靠自己的力量重返巅峰的那股魄力给表现出来. 他们认为Fly Like A Bird这首福音歌曲经典多了,为什麽要半路杀出一首Say Somethin' 呢? -- 　◣　　 █◣◢▉═══ Ｔｈｅ　Ｅｍａｎｃｉｐａｔｉｏｎ　ｏｆ　Ｍｉｍｉ ══ ◢█＠　 ███▉██▉██▉▉██▉█　█　███▉██▉██▉██▉█　█ 　／█◣ ███▉█▆▉█▆▉▉█▆▉███　██　　█▆▉█▆▉█▆　███ 　　◤　 █◥◤▉█　▉█◥◣▉█　▉█　█　███▉█　▉█◥◣█▆▆　█ 玛丽亚凯莉最新专辑"天后再临"发行首周空降告示牌冠军大卖四十万张再度缔造新纪录 2005上半年最值得听的好声音 Mariah Carey ﹝The Emancipation of Mimi﹞!! --
