    Is that the sound of a live piano? A real instrument being played in a song today? Wait, did I just hear actual professional vocal arrangement? Composition? Oh shnap, a bridge??? And a God gifted vocalist actually singing?!!! Woooow, it's like something taken from a time capsule when real music was the norm! My ears are crying tears of joy! Thanks Mariah!

    Mariah, you said during your Genius interview that you were real curious to see what we thought of this song. Girl, it’s FIRE! So beautiful! Sharing your inner thoughts and feelings like you did in Looking In, Outside, Petals and now Portrait is not only brave, because you’re revealing the vulnerable side of you, but also SO relatable for so many of us who have dealt with similar feelings. It’s a great, great song!

    Something about her ballads. She makes me tear up, especially on this song. This is one of her best ballads ever in her catelogue. And her catelogue has a lot of ballads. The words, her tone, delivery, she didn't over sing or undersing. It's so perfect.

    This song is hauntingly beautiful. She's honest yet guarded. She's the GOAT. Imagine the pressure she faces when she enters a studio to write and record a new album, and yet somehow she manages to make it look easy when it's anything but. Caution seamlessly updates her signature sound without sounding dated or desperate. It's one of her best albums. I'd rank it behind Butterfly and Daydream.

    "Portrait"
    Where do I go from here?
    How do I disappear?
    Here beyond the looking glass
    Somewhere off the beaten path
    Heart ache never seems to pass, just lasts
    And I'd go...
    Yet I know that tomorrow comes, so I'll be here when you rise
    Stay real close and the moment will subside
    Look the other way as I bottle myself up inside
    I won't let the teardrops spill tonight
    Just conceal myself and hide
    A portrait of my life
    La da da da da
    La da da da da
    Somewhat desensitized
    Still the same hopeful child
    Haunted by those severed ties
    Pushing past the parasites
    Down but not demoralized
    Unconfined, but don't let go...
    Yes I know that tomorrow comes, so I'll be here when you rise
    Stay here close and the moment will subside
    Look the other way as I bottle myself up inside
    I won't let the teardrops spill tonight
    Just conceal myself and hide
    A portrait of my life
    And for the finale, she can float around effortlessly
    And dream away the hours in her mind
    And I'd let go...
    Yet I know that tomorrow comes, so I'll be here when you rise
    Stay here close and the moment will subside

    Mariah bared her soul on this album. Lyrically she documents the ups and downs she's faced since her last album. Her lyricism is what sets her apart from her 90's contemporaries and today's "artists".

    This album really went past our expectations. I love this song and imo it's one of her best. Her ballads are just legendary. We waited 4 years and it *really* payed off with these real instruments that are as beautiful as classical ballads of old, calming and smooth vocals, and lyrics that mean something. It's all I want out of music and we just don't get that anymore.

    I just love your vocals (and of course the instru are sooo good) on this album. It is so amazing. I can’t wait to meet you one day. Thank you for making the music that I love since almost 30 years !! Real queen !

  • @Sanjinator1

    Mariah, no matter what you're going through, I'll always love you. Your legacy is cemented up there with the Gospel qualities of Aretha Franklin, the vocal acrobatics and runs of Stevie Wonder, the power of Patti LaBelle, the magic of Michael Jackson, the technical efficiency of Prince, the emotional exuberance of Whitney Houston, the layering of Luther Vandross, the passion of Teena Marie, the kind-heartedness of Bob Marley and the range of Minnie Riperton. The list goes on and on...
    ...and this is not even mentioning all the hip-hop pioneers and legends I grew up listening to back in my youth when I was too close minded to appreciate the authenticity in genres such as 80s/90s R&B/Soul & Pop. I only appreciated the craft of great emcees like 2Pac, Big Punisher, Chubb Rock, Masta Ace, Slick Rick, LL Cool J, Nas, Twista, Busta Rhymes, Ice T, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg to current underground beasts like Tech N9ne, K-Rino, Akala, Lowkey, Immortal Technique and the like. I place your talents and messages alongside or even above these immortal realists. Obscure artists like Wendy Moten, B. Slade, Dina Carroll, Lalah Hathaway, Lisa Fischer, Oleta Adams etc. etc. etc. I've heard the best of the best and it's been wonderful.
    All these incredible artists I've listed have been discovered through you and your music, your supreme musicianship on display throughout the years was too hard to ignore. Never have I ever witnessed so much skill in one being (except maybe Michael). It really made me appreciate the effort, the means in which you conquered the art of singing/songwriting. Opening my eyes, setting aside my ignorance for only focussing on lyrical content/delivery found in rap music or the obvious 'jack of all trades' skill-set on display of a mere entertainer.
    You are the personification of a vocalist and beyond that... strip away the mask and what is left is a deeply sweet and respectful human being residing inside you and I thank you dearly, for everything...
    PS. I got so caught up writing a meaningful post, I forgot to mention the exquisite likeness of that Stevie Wonder cue from 'You And I' in the beginning.

    It's not just her voice and the timeless ways she her music contributes to the fight to keep real R&B alive, it's also the fact that no matter who you are or how hard or soft you may think you are, all of her lyrics are so blissfully and painfully relatable. Every song that I've listened to on this album so far has given me the chills. Chills of nostalgia and chills of somoething that almost all of today's music has failed to give me....... SELF-REFLECTION AND SELF-REALIZATION.

    So I’ve been listening to her since I was like 8 and now I’m 17. Listening to her progress and change over the years but still keep her signature feel is making me cry. I realized how much I grew with her music in my life. There is barely one week in my life where I’ve gone without listening to her. And now she’s reached this legendary level... my heart hurts.
