28th. Someday
Average score 8.83 (One 11, seven 10s)
Third single from the debut album and third #1 in a row for Mariah. This was originally on the famous demo tape Mariah gave to Tommy Mottola that launched her on the path to stardom and was later reworked when it came to the recording of the album. While it was a hit in the US and Canada, it scraped the Top 40 in the UK peaking at #38. Mariah's since admitted she disliked the overproduction on the album version and included the MTV Unplugged version instead on her '#1 To Infinity' compilation.
27th. Can't Let Go
Average score 8.83 (One 12, two 11s, five 10s)
The second single from 'Emotions', this is my own personal fave Mariah track. When released in the US, it became her first single not to make #1 peaking at #2 and kept off the top spot by Color Me Badd. Her success in the UK was getting better and better as it reached #20 there. It was co-written with Walter Afanasieff who'd go on to co-write some of her biggest hits. It also popped up as a surprise inclusion on the MTV Unplugged EP.
