DiscoHeaven23 35,007 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 These are the week to week performances of Mariah Carey's songs on the Billboard Hot 100 during the 1990's. -I want to preface this by saying the the chart structure changed a lot during the 90's. There was a complete overhaul of the chart for the 1992 Billboard year. That's why Mariah's first two albums looked like they performed badly. Songs used to not stay on the chart for as long as the do now, making their top 10 stays short as well. Mariah's singles from her first album are some of her biggest hits as stated by Billboard, so they've obviously found a way to adjust numbers to find a way to compare songs from different charting eras. -There were three very strong female eras going on in 1995/1996, they included Mariah's Daydream, Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill, and Celine Dion's Falling into You. -For Mariah's Butterfly era, five singles were released but only two were allowed to chart because of new chart rules and issues between Mariah and her record label (i couldn't really understood the situation, so if someone knows please share). -Ive added a new portion to this to show female (or male) singers' biggest competition on the charts during each era, from their respective gender. Sometimes there are clear competitors and sometimes there are many with less powerful performances. They are listed below. I was surprised to see that Madonna was never a competitor (aside from a bit of overlap during the Butterfly and Ray of Light eras) for Mariah in the 90's. They either had opposite era cycles or Madonna's singles weren't performing well. Mariah Carey Janet Jackson Whitney Houston Emotions Paula Abdul Vanessa Williams Music Box Janet Jackson Toni Braxton Daydream Celine Dion Alanis Morisette Butterfly (many different females with not one standing out more than the other. These are names like LeAnn Rimes, Shania Twain, Brandy, Monica, Madonna) #1’s Whitney Monica Cher Britney Spears Here's the charts: MARIAH CAREY Vision of Love (1990) *7 weeks in Top 10* 1st Week: #73 2nd Week: #51 3rd Week: #38 4th Week: #31 5th Week: #25 6th Week: #17 7th Week: #14 8th Week: #5 9th Week: #2 10th Week: #1 -

Riot Poof 2,236 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 This SLAYAGE. Butterfly deserved more, tho. The three other singles (the title track, "The Roof," and "Breakdown") were KILLER.
