I agree, it was incredibly scary. I didn't really wanna see her on TV... especially not today.

Good!  Then I don't have to worry about deliberately avoiding it!  I'm sorry you guys had to see it, though.

Don't worry about it, there's more things to worry about in life than Mariah Scary. :)

Yeah, but it would make me hate her even MORE if I had to listen to her murder one of my favorite songs by my favorite band!  It's all good ;)

Mariah Carey butchering a Def Leppard song.  >:(
That's nothing new. Mariah had sampled/covered many great songs before. And most her covers/songs containing the samples are awful.
(Not to mention her annoying voice.)
What's next?  Good Charlotte covering Simple Minds?
(hopefully false)

Have you heard that utterly annoying Eminem sampling Aerosmith's "Dream On" in one of his songs? ::)

NOOOOOO!!! That is just wrong...please someone clue her in to the fact that she can't sing and put us all out of our misery.

I'm glad I missed it. Of course I wouldn't mind if I pressed the mute button and watch Mariah in her skimpy outfit. ;D

She can sing, that's not her problem....she OVERsings every dang verse she puts her lips around.  That's why most people can't stand to listen to her.  Me included! ;)  

*Note To Mariah* Sometimes a song is just a song, woman, we don't need our ears to bleed because of it!

I agree.  ;D She should just dance, or something, and keep her mouth shut.

Sorry, Gis: any sympathy I had evaporated when you said that... I mean, it ain't the classiest program ever to hit the screens, is it?

i.e. she should be obscene, but not heard? ;-)

I was actually in the kitchen cooking dinner and himself had the T.V on, I just came through when I realised what song it was I could hear being mutilated in such a hideous fashion

PS, Given that Britney's version of "I love rock n roll" was bad enough to make me write the parody "I hate Britney Spears", anyone reckon this one's worth a parody, too?

There's no law against liking other artists & expressing opinion.

BTW, Deborah Gibson never sang "Stairway To Heaven".

What if I like Deborah Gibson better than "Maria, Marie, Marisol, uhmmm...Martika, Oh yeah , Mariah...I remember her" Carey.

Deborah Gibson's voice,in my opinion, is much soother & beautiful than Mariah Carey.
And looks more attractive & doesn't dress like a guest from "Springer" to get attention. (or collaborate with top rappers & singers)

And Deborah Gibson is only one of my favorite female artists.


(I'm not trying to pick an arguement)

And I don't care  about what other people think.

Not everybody likes Mariah Carey.
Just because she has a couple of octives doesn't make her unique.
(no offense to Mariah fans)

I would care less if Mariah  decides to chop up "Lost In Your Eyes" or "Out Of The Blue".

All I'm stating is that Mariah Carey is not my cup of tea.

I just find her voice very annoying like the sound of  a tuning fork.

PS To really rub salt into the wound: search on Google for "Bringing on the heartache" lyrics, and the first couple of pages are all Mariah Carey :-(

I'm still reeling here....

I knew about this already when I got bludgeoned over the head with it one night after work, on Extra, at about 12:30 AM.  NOT something I needed to hear about then.  One of the GREATEST tunes Def Leppard has ever done, and it is not just killed by Mariah, her voice is like hitting the song with a Bunker Buster!  BLAMMO, the song is DEAD!

And the sad thing is, who's gonna be buying this humongous turd?  Kids.  Teens.  People who will think it's MARIAH'S song, and never realize how good the song is SUPPOSED to be.  Once my ears stop bleeding, I'll be planning elaborate revenge.

Why the hell couldn't she stay out of the business?  Didn't this twerp have a nervous breakdown recently?  Any one have any ideas on how to make her have another, quick?  If you come up with one, I'll be over here in the corner beating my head into the wall and kicking the cat....

This is just further proof that Def Leppard's record label hates them...

Totally agree with you TV9, what in the world is she singing DL tunes for? Why can't she stick to murdering the RnB genre? That is bad enough, but DL?? :P
