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 ↴
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
I know that you've been waitin' for it
I'm waiting too
In my imagination I'd be all up on you
I know you got that fever for me
And boy I know I feel the same
My temperature's through the roof
If there's a camera up in here
Then it's gonna leave with me
When I do (I do)
If there's a camera up in here
Then I'd best not catch this flick
On YouTube (YouTube)
Cause if you run your mouth and brag
About this secret rendezvous
I will hunt you down
Cause baby they be all up in my bidness
Like a Wendy interview
But this is private
Between you and I
[Chorus]
Touch my body
Put me on the floor
Wrestle me around
Play with me some more
Touch my body
Throw me on the bed
I just wanna make you feel
Like you never did.
Touch my body
Let me wrap my thighs
All around your waist
Just a little taste
Touch my body
Know you like my curves
Come on and give me what I deserve
And touch my body.
Boy you can put me on you
Like a brand new white tee
I'll hug your body tighter
Than my favorite jeans
I want you to caress me
Like a tropical breeze
And float away with you
In the Caribbean Sea
If there's a camera up in here
Then it's gonna leave with me
When I do (I do)
If there's a camera up in here
Then I'd best not catch this flick
On YouTube (YouTube)
Cause if you run your mouth and brag
About this secret rendezvous
I will hunt you down
Cause they be all up in my bidness
Like a Wendy interview
But this is private
Between you and I
[Chorus]
I'm gonna treat you like a teddy bear
You won't wanna go nowhere
In the lap of luxury
Baby just turn to me
You won't want for nothing boy
I will give you plenty
Touch my body
[Chorus]
Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah
Oh yeah oh yeah
Oh oh oh oh yeah
Touch my body...
The lyrics of Mariah Carey's song "Touch my Body" display a highly sensual context that embodies the singer's desire to be physically intimate with her partner. In the first and second stanza, she acknowledges her partner has been waiting for intimacy to happen, and with the same eagerness, she yearns for him too. The following lines highlight that she knows that her partner has a fever for her that stands at 102 degrees, and that she feels the same way too since her temperature is through the roof. The chorus plays up her desire for physical intimacy, expressing a desire to play around with her partner on the bed, wrapping her thighs around him, and giving him all that he deserves.
Furthermore, the lyrics suggest that this act of intimacy is private and confidential, between her and her partner. In the bridge, she uses the metaphor of a teddy bear to express that the partner would not want to go anywhere after they were intimate, and nothing would be left for him to need because she would give him everything. Overall, the lyrics signify an intense desire for physical intimacy while emphasizing that this should remain just between her and her partner.

Boy you can put me on you
You can hold me tight
Like a brand new white tee
Just like wearing a new shirt
I'll hug your body tighter
I'll hold onto your body very tightly
Than my favorite jeans
Tighter than how I wear my favorite jeans
I want you to caress me
I want you to touch me in a gentle and loving manner
Like a tropical breeze
Similar to how a warm tropical wind would feel
And float away with you
I want to feel so connected to you that we feel like we're floating
In the Caribbean Sea
As if we're floating on the warm waters of the Caribbean
I'm gonna treat you like a teddy bear
I want to cuddle you like you're a teddy bear
You won't wanna go nowhere
You won't want to go anywhere else
In the lap of luxury
In a luxurious setting
Baby just turn to me
Just turn to me and I'll take care of you
You won't want for nothing boy
You won't lack anything
I will give you plenty
I'll provide you with everything you need
Touch my body
The repetition of the chorus symbolizes the desire for physical intimacy and to be touched
