I think the adoption of some elements of Mariah law is inevitable

Oh OK, I give in, this is the new Mariah Carey single "Touch My Body" and supposedly it's done by the dudes who brought you "Umbrella" - NOW will the comments flow?

I like this! It's quite R Kelly-like in the vocal phrasing - I do like that stoccato singing style very much as it really picks out bonkers lyrics for me (I have trouble picking up on them otherwise). For example: "If there's a camera up in here/Then I'd best not catch this flick/On YouTube, Youtuuuube!" Awesome.

That is totally the best lyric since "them chickens is ash and I'm lotion" off 'It's Like That'.

You know the original title for her new album was Illusions: The Butterfly Within? I think we should all take a moment to ponder the butterfly within today.

Also Tom I am nicking this title because it's pretty much sewn up Pun of the Year.
