Carey's self-titled debut album was released under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, who married her three years later. She gained further worldwide success with the albums Music Box (1993) and Daydream (1995). Their singles include "Hero", "Without You", "Fantasy", "Always Be My Baby", and "One Sweet Day", which topped the US Billboard Hot 100 decade-end chart (1990s) and was the longest running number one song of the decade. After separating from Mottola, Carey adopted a new urban image and incorporated more elements of hip hop with the album Butterfly (1997). She left Columbia in 2001 after eleven consecutive years of U.S. number-one singles and signed a $100 million record deal with Virgin Records.
Following Carey's highly publicized physical and emotional breakdown and the failure of the film Glitter (2001) and its soundtrack, Virgin bought out her contract and she signed with Island Records the following year. After a comparatively unsuccessful period, Carey returned to the top of the charts with The Emancipation of Mimi (2005), which became the best-selling album in the US and the world's second best-selling album of 2005. Its second single, "We Belong Together", topped the US Billboard Hot 100 decade-end chart (2000s). She won the Breakthrough Actress Performance award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival for her role in the 2009 film Precious. Carey's subsequent ventures included being an American Idol judge, starring in the docu-series Mariah's World, appearing in the films The Butler (2013), A Christmas Melody (2015), and The Lego Batman Movie (2017), performing at two Las Vegas concert residencies, and publishing her memoir The Meaning of Mariah Carey in 2020.
Carey is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with over 220 million records sold worldwide. She holds the record for the most Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles by a solo artist (19), a female songwriter (18), and a female producer (15). Carey is the highest-certified female artist in the United States and 10th overall, with 72 million certified album units. In 2008, she was named one of Time's annual 100 most influential artists and entertainers in the world. Billboard named her the "top-charting female solo artist", based on both album and song chart success in 2019. Carey has won 5 Grammy Awards, 19 World Music Awards, 10 American Music Awards, 15 Billboard Music Awards and eight Guinness World Records. An inductee into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, she is credited for inspiring multiple generations of pop and R&B artists, and for merging hip hop with pop music through her crossover collaborations.

El Amor Que Soñé
Mariah Carey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jugando a amar
Juntos en la oscuridad
Fuimos queriendo
Cada vez mas
Nada podia cambiar
El paso del tiempo
Nos quiso alejar
Y ahora estoy frente a ti
Amandote
Mi corazon no puede esconder
Que yo sin ti
No se querer
Vuelvo a vivir
A tu lado el amor que sone
Sola en mi cuarto
Sin tu calor
Fui conociendo el temor
Te quise tanto
Mi alma te di
Hoy que regresas a mi
Se llena vacio
Se apaga el dolor
Hoy tengo tu amor
Y ahora estoy frente a ti
Amandote
Mi corazon no puede esconder
Que yo sin ti
No se querer
Vuelvo a vivir
A tu lado el amor que sone
The lyrics to Mariah Carey's song "El Amor Que Soñé" tell a story of two people who fell in love and were completely devoted to each other despite the obstacles they faced. The song describes how the two bodies played at loving each other and grew closer in the darkness, and even though time tried to separate them, their love was strong enough to overcome it. The singer confesses that without the other person, she doesn't know how to love and began to experience fear when alone before.
Later in the song, the other person returns and the void in the singer's life is filled. The pain is extinguished and the love that was once shared is reignited. The singer's heart can only express love and they are inseparable once again. The song ultimately speaks to the power of love and how it can conquer all.
Overall, "El Amor Que Soñé" is a song about rekindling a love that was once powerful, and recognizing the absence of that love in one's life.

Solo dos cuerpos, jugando a amar
Juntos en la obscuridad
Fuimos queriendo, cada vez mas
Nada podia cambiar
El paso del tiempo, nos quizo alejar
Y nuestro amor pudo mas
Y ahora estoy frente a ti, amandote
Mi corazon, no puede esconder
Que yo sin ti, no se querer
Vuelvo a vivir, a tu lado el amor, que soñe
Sola en mi cuarto
Sin tu calor
Fui conociendo el temor
Te quise tanto
Mi alma te di
Hoy que regresas ami
Se llena el vacio
Se apaga el dolor
Hoy tengo tu amor
Y ahora estoy frente a ti, amandote
Mi corazon, no puede esconder
Que yo sin ti, no se querer
Vuelvo a vivir, a tu lado el amor, que soñe.

Nunca tuvo ese título. Lo tuvo Barbra Straisand incluso Celine Dion. En lo personal la mejor voz femenina de siempre es y será la de Karen Carpenter.
Andres Alcon mendo
La voz es y será Whitney Houston. Aunque mariah es muy buena
Michael Vélez
La mejor voz se llamó Whitney Houston

@Michael Vélez Creo que esto ya se trata más de gustos. Amo a Whitney y amaba su voz, pero Mariah siempre me gustó más. Los matices que agregaba, los melismas, el silbido. De la Trinidad vocal, siempre fué mi favorita.
Aúnque siempre he pensado que Mariah y Whitney estan en el mismo nivel, ni una arriba de otra. Pero repito, Mariah siempre me trasmitió algo inexplicable.
