Egads, Mariah Actually Sings Again

While American radio is suffering through "Obsessed," the first single from Mariah Carey's upcoming "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel," Europe is being serviced with a song—you know, with a melody and a chorus and vocals and a build and stuff. I must say, Mimi knocks it out of the park with her soaring remake of Foreigner's 1985 chart-topper "I Want to Know What Love Is." She actually sings. Who'da thunk it possible in the millennium?

Mind you, Tina Arena delivered the consummate rerub of the song back in 1997, from her disc, "In Deep." Wynonna's 2005 dance remix wasn't too shabby, either.

  1. Chuck...I say this with love, but have you lost your mind? The dog whistle DESTROYS this track.....yet another screeching mess.....turn this off now, for the the love of GOD, and start listening to the new track by McPheever, as it is endearing, melodic, and vocally warm.
