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.

Mariah Carey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you simply ask me to be there
Every time you call me, I come running
What you got is far beyond compare
And it's just like honey
When your love comes over me
Oh baby, I've got a dependency
It's like honey really washes over me
You know sugar never ever was so sweet
And I'm dyin' for ya, cryin' for ya, I adore ya
One hit of your love addicted me
Now I'm strung out on you darlin', don't you see?
Every night and day, I can't hardly wait for another taste of honey
Honey, I can't describe
How good it feels inside
Honey, I can't describe
How good it feels inside
I can't be elusive with you, honey
'Cause it's blatant that I'm feeling you
And it's too hard for me to leave abruptly
You're the only thing I wanna do
It's just like honey
When your love comes over me
Oh baby, I've got a dependency
Always strung out for another taste of your honey
It's like honey really washes over me
You know sugar never ever was so sweet
And I'm dyin for ya, cryin' for ya, I adore ya
One hit of your love addicted me
Now I'm strung out on you darlin', don't you see?
Every night and day, I can't hardly wait for another taste of honey
It's like honey really washes over me
You know sugar never ever was so sweet
And I'm dyin for ya, cryin' for ya, I adore ya
One hit of your love addicted me
Now I'm strung out on you darlin', don't you see?
Every night and day, I can't hardly wait for another taste of honey
Honey, I can't describe
How good it feels inside
Honey, I can't describe
How good it feels inside
Baby, I can't hardly wait

Baby, I can't hardly wait

Honey, honey, honey, honey

It's like honey really washes over me
You know sugar never ever was so sweet
And I'm dyin for ya, cryin for ya, I adore ya
One hit of your love addicted me
Now I'm strung out on you, darlin', don't you see?
Every night and day, I can't hardly wait for another taste of honey
It's like honey really washes over me
You know sugar never ever was so sweet
And I'm dyin for ya, cryin for ya, I adore ya
One hit of your love addicted me
