10. Thank God I Found You
With the help of 98 Degrees and Joe, Mariah recorded this sweet track for her 2000 album ‘Rainbow’. Silky smooth harmonies and plenty of emotion.
9. I Stay In Love
This may not be one of her biggest hits but for us it’s ‘We Belong Together’ part 2. Definitely one of Mimi’s most moving tracks yet.
8. Emotions
No list of romantic Mariah songs would be complete without this one. She captures the joy of falling in love and hits those whistle notes like hr life depends on it.
7. Vision of Love
The song that introduced the world to the divine Ms. Carey. Vision of Love has stood the test of time and is one of her best songs still after all these years.
6. Always Be My Baby
Definitely a highlight from her 1995 album ‘Daydream’. The R&B meets pop feel of the track is as gorgeous today as ever it was.
5. #Beautiful
Mimi’s smash single with Miguel can be ranked amongst Mariah’s finest moments. The breezy and summery track is perfect to play to your loved one.
4. My All
When Mariah does a power-ballad, she really goes for it doesn’t she? My All is a tale of yearning and lust which is delivered the way only Mariah knows how.
3. Without You
Mariah’s cover of Without You remains one of her most enduring songs. Vocally it’s also one of her most impressive and we reckon it’s going to be sung at many a karaoke party tonight.
2. Dreamlover
The song that marked Mariah’s move into R&B tinged pop. Gorgeous vocals, a catchy as hell chorus and lyrics that will make even the hardest of hearts melt.
1. We Belong Together
The ultimate romantic Mariah Carey song. From the contemporary R&B beats to the flawless vocal delivery, there’s no denying this is her finest ballad to date.
