Number One for four weeks Carey cowrote her breakout smash with her friend Ben Margulies when she was still just a teenager. An early version of the song was included on a demo tape that landed in the hands of future Sony Records chief (and her future husband) Tommy Mottola one fateful night at a Manhattan party in 1988. It was ultimately rerecorde...
Number One for three weeks Carey’s second chart topper was actually written while final mixing was being completed for her self-titled debut. Label executives were so enamored with an early acoustic demo of the ballad that they insisted she rush record it for inclusion on the LP. After three days of hard work —including a marathon late night vocal ...
Number One for two weeks “Someday” was included on the four-song demo tape that Carey made with Margulies while she was still in high school. It was a favorite of singer, and she later described listening to it “over and over again on the subway after the studio sessions.”
Number One for two weeks With “I Don’t Wanna Cry,” Carey became the first solo artist to have her first four singles hit the number one spot. The only other act to match the feat was the Jackson 5 during their hot streak between 1969 and 1970.
Number One for three weeks The title track to Carey’s second album is a relentless floor-filler cowritten with David Cole and Robert Clivillés of “Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)” hitmakers C+C Music Factory. The song allowed Carey to showcase the full range of her superhuman vocal prowess, reaching an ecstatic climax with her trademark ...
Number One for two weeks With “Emotions,” Carey became the first artist to have her first five singles top the chart, shattering the record previously held by the Jacksons with four. So it’s fitting that her next number one was a cover of the song that capped off the Motown collective’s run of debut hits, 1970’s “I’ll Be There.”
Number One for eight weeks The lead single from Carey’s third album, “Dreamlover” became one of the biggest songs of 1993 and helped steer her towards a more pop-centric style. The song saw her partner with Dave Hall, who had earned fame for his work on Mary J. Blige’s 1992 debut. “I wanted to do something that had a happy feeling, something that w...
Number One for four weeks Though it would become one of Carey’s signature songs, “Hero” was originally written for Gloria Estefan and slated for the soundtrack to the 1992 film Hero, starring Dustin Hoffman and Geena Davis. “It was never meant for Mariah to sing,” the track’s cowriter, Walter Afanasieff, explained in Fred Bronson’s Book of Billboar...
Number One for eight weeks After a two-year absence from the top of the charts, Carey’s return was inspired by an ’80 New Wave track by the Tom Tom Club, helmed by Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz of the Talking Heads. “I was listening to the radio and heard ‘Genius of Love’, and I hadn’t heard it in a long time,” Carey said of her song’s genesis in ...
Number One for 16 weeks For more than 20 years, Carey’s pairing with the ’90s R&B titans owned the title of the longest-running number one in history. Even after the record was tied in 2017 with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito,” it has yet to be bested. Despite the monumental commercial success of “One Sweet Day,” its creation is rooted in...
