Decent voice, great range, no originality

"I think there is too much mariah bashing going on, but there is also a lot of blind fanaticism. The song is catchy, of course, because it is a pop song. Jay-z helps make it r&b. The remix with missy and da brat are, in my opinion, better than the pop version. Her upper register is impressive, but in this song it seems very unnecessary, like it was just thrown in to annoy her critics. I guess the high pitch gets on some people's nerves, while others prefer it. It sounds better in bliss, a song on her rainbow album. And, yes, it is rehashed from previous hits (Fantasy, Dreamlover). It actually sounds more similar Dreamlover. Sing the two chorus of heartbreaker and dreamlover and you'll be amazed. No, it is not at all original. But she has an audience and a market for it. And people will continue to buy her albums."

"she sounds totally awesome, and she looks so cool, though there are so many critics on her, but still feel that she is one of the best!"
