Álbum Butterfly de Mariah Carey - Canciones

Butterfly

Reseña

Butterfly es el sexto álbum de estudio de Mariah Carey y el primero que Mariah publicó tras su ruptura sentimental con el directivo de Sony Tommy Mottola. El álbum apareció en 1997 bajo el sello Columbia Records, e incluye diferentes estilos, como el hip-hop y más sonidos pop en sus temas.

Algunos de los sencillos que se extrajeron del álbum fueron "Honey", "Butterfly", "Breakdown", "The Roof" y "My All", si bien en Estados Unidos sólo se presentaron el primero y el quinto, por lo que no pudieron optar a ninguna clasificación. El tema "My All" fue uno de los más escuchados en las radios en 1998.

Con este álbum, Mariah Carey obtuvo tres nominaciones para los premios Grammy de 1998, como Mejor Interpretación Vocal R&B Femenina y como Mejor Canción R&B por "Honey" y una más como Mejor Interpretación Vocal Pop Femenina por "Butterfly", si bien no logró alzar ninguna de las estatuillas.

    letra de Honey

    Oh, now you can have me
    When you want me
    You simply ask me to be there
    And you're the only one
    Who makes me come running
    'Cause what you got
    Is far beyond compare
    And it's just like honey
    When your love comes over me
    Oh, baby, I've got a dependency
    Always strung out
    For another taste of your honey
    It's like honey
    When it washes over me
    You know sugar never ever was so sweet
    And I'm dying for ya
    Crying for ya
    I adore ya
    One hit of your love affected me
    And I'm strung out on you, darling
    Don't you see
    Every night and day I can hardly wait
    For another taste of honey
    Honey, I can't describe
    How good it feels inside
    Honey, I can't describe
    How good it feels inside
    Yeah, oh
    Oh, I can't be elusive with you honey
    'Cause it's blatant that I'm feeling you
    And it's too hard for me to leave abruptly
    You're the only thing I want to do
    And it's just like honey
    When your love comes over me
    Oh, baby, I've got a dependency
    Always strung out
    For another taste of your honey
    It's like honey
    When it washes over me
    You know sugar never ever was so sweet
    And I'm dying for ya
    Crying for ya
    I adore ya
    One hit of your love addected me
    And I'm strung out on you, darling
    Don't you see
    Every night and day I can hardly wait
    For another taste of honey
    Honey, I can't describe
    How good it feels inside
    Honey, I can't describe
    How good it feels inside
    (Breakdown)
    Oooh, woah
    Every little thing you do
    Ooh, woah, honey, got me hooked on you
    Honey, it's like
    And it's just like honey
    When your love comes over me
    Oh, baby, I've got a dependancy
    Always strung out
    For another taste of your honey
    It's like honey
    When it washes over me
    You know sugar never ever was so sweet
    And I'm dying for ya
    Crying for ya
    I adore ya
    One hit of your love addected me
    And I'm strung out on you, darling
    Don't you see
    Every night and day I can hardly wait
    For another taste of honey
    Honey, I can't describe
    How good it feels inside
    Honey, I can't describe
    How good it feels inside

    letra de Butterfly

    When you love someone so deeply
    They become your life
    It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
    Blindly I imagined I could
    Keep you under glass
    Now I understand to hold you
    I must open up my hands
    And watch you rise
    Chorus:
    Spread your wings and prepare to fly
    For you have become a butterfly
    Fly abandonedly into the sun
    If you should return to me
    We truly were meant to be
    So spread your wings and fly
    Butterfly
    I have learned that beauty
    Has to flourish in the light
    Wild horses run unbridled
    Or their spirit dies
    You have given me the courage
    To be all that I can
    And truly feel your heart will
    Lead you back to me when you're
    Ready to land
    Chorus:
    Spread your wings and prepare to fly
    For you have become a butterfly
    Fly abandonedly into the sun
    If you should return to me
    We truly were ment to be
    So spread your wings and fly
    Butterfly
    I can't pretend these tears
    Aren't over flowing steadily
    I can't prevent this hurt from
    Almost overtaking me
    ButI will stand and say goodbye
    For you'll never be mine
    Until you know the way it feels to fly
    Chorus:
    Spread your wings and prepare to fly
    For you have become a butterfly
    Fly abandonedly into the sun
    If you should return to me
    We truly were ment to be
    So spread your wings and fly
    Butterfly
    Chorus:
    Spread your wings and prepare to fly
    For you have become a butterfly
    Fly abandonedly into the sun
    If you should return to me
    We truly were ment to be
    So spread your wings and fly
    Butterfly
    So flutter through the sky
    Butterfly
    Spread your wings and fly
    Butterfly

    letra de My All

    Oh
    Mm
    I am thinking of you
    In my sleepless solitude tonight
    If it's wrong to love you
    Then my heart just won't let me be right
    'Cause I've drowned in you
    And I won't pull through
    Without you by my side
    I'd give my all to have
    Just one more night with you
    I'd risk my life to feel
    Your body next to mine
    'Cause I can't go on
    Living in the memory of our song
    I'd give my all for your love tonight
    Baby can you feel me
    Imagining I'm looking in your eyes
    I can see you clearly
    Vividly emblazoned in my mind
    And yet you're so far
    Like a distant star
    I'm wishing on tonight
    I'd give my all to have
    Just one more night with you
    I'd risk my life to feel
    Your body next to mine
    'Cause I can't go on
    Living in the memory of our song
    I'd give my all for your love tonight
    I'd give my all to have
    Just one more night with you
    I'd risk my life to feel
    Your body next to mine
    'Cause I can't go on
    Living in the memory of our song
    I'd give my all for your love tonight
    (I'd) give my all for your love
    Tonight

  5. Fourth Of JulyVer letra 4:22

    letra de Fourth Of July

    Trembling
    Starry eyed
    As you put your hand in mine
    It was twilight
    On the Fourth of July
    Sparkling colors were
    Strewn across the sky
    And we sat close enough
    That we just barely touched
    While roman candles
    Went soaring above us and baby
    Then you put your hand in mine
    And we wandered away
    I was trembling inside
    But I wanted to stay
    Pressed against you there and leave the world behind
    On that Fourth of July
    So starry eyed
    On the flowery hillside
    Breathless and fervid
    Amid the dandelions
    As it swept over me
    Like the wind trough the trees
    I felt you sigh with a
    Sweet intensity and baby
    Then you put your hand in mine
    And we floated away
    Delicately lay entwined
    In an intimate daze
    A crescent moon began to shine
    And I wanted to stay
    Tangled up with you among the fireflies
    On that Fourth of July
    Thunder clouds
    Hung around
    So threateningly
    Ominously hovering
    And the sky
    Opened wide
    Showering
    Then you put your hand in mine
    And we ran from the rain
    Tentatively kissed goodnight
    And went our separate ways
    And I've never truly felt the way that I
    Felt the Fourth of July
    Truly I have never felt the same inside
    Like that Fourth of July
    Truly I could never feel the same as I
    Felt that Fourth of July

    letra de Breakdown

    Krayzie:
    Break break down,
    Steady breakin me on down, break break down,
    Steady breakin me on down,
    Break break down, steady breakin me on down,
    Break break down, steady breakin me on down.
    Mariah:
    You called yesterday to basicallly say
    That you care for me,
    But that you're just not in love
    Immediately I pretended
    To be feeling similarly
    And led you to believe it was O. K
    To just walk away from the one thing
    That's unyielding and sacred to me
    Chorus:
    Well I guess I'm trying to be
    Nonchalant about it
    And I'm going to extremes to prove
    I'm fine without you
    But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
    Underneath a disguise of a smile
    Gradually I'm dying inside
    Friends ask me how I feel
    And I lie convincingly
    Cause I don't want to reveal
    The fact that I'm suffering
    So I wear my disguise
    Till I go home at night
    And turn down all the lights
    And then I break down and cry
    Mariah:
    So what do you do
    When somebody you're so devoted to
    Suddenly just stops loving you
    And it seems they haven't got a clue
    Of the pain that rejection is putting you through
    Do you cling to your pride
    And sing "I will survive"
    Do you lash out and say "How dare you leave this way?"
    Do you hold on in vain as they just slip away
    Wish:
    Yeah, c' mon, yeah, c' mon, c' mon
    Well I guess I'm trying to be
    Nonchalant about it
    And I'm going to extremes to prove
    I'm fine without you
    But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
    Underneath the disguise of a smile
    Gradually I'm dying inside
    Friends ask me how I feel
    And I lie convincingly
    Cause I don't want to reveal
    The fact that I'm suffering
    So I wear my disguise
    Till I go home at night
    And turn down all the lights
    And then I break down and cry
    Wish:
    It'll break you down
    Only if you let it
    Everday crazy situations rocking my mind
    Tryin' to break me down
    But I won't let it
    Forget it (forget it)
    Krayzie:
    I be feelin' like you bringing me down
    Taking me around
    Stressin' me out
    I think I better go and get out
    And let me release some stress (stress)
    Wish:
    Don't ever wanna feel no pain (pain)
    Hoping for the sun
    But it looks like rain (rain, rain, rain)
    Lord, I just wanna maintain
    Krayzie:
    Yeah, I can feel pressures ya'll
    But never the less
    Krayzie won't fall
    It's over, it's ending here (here)
    Well I guess I'm trying to be
    Nonchalant about it
    And I'm going to extremes to prove
    I'm fine without you
    But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
    Underneath the guise of a smile
    Gradually I'm dying inside
    Friends ask me how I feel
    And I lie convincingly
    Cause I don't want to reveal
    The fact that I'm suffering
    So I wear my disguise
    Till I go home at night
    And turn down all the lights
    And then I break down and cry

    letra de Babydoll

    It's 2:11 and I'm stressing
    Watching T.V in my hotel suite
    I check my service every second
    At 2:10 you still hadn't called me
    So I'm gonna leave my cell phone
    Turned on in my purse by the bed
    And before I fall asleep
    I guess I'll just check my machine
    Again and again because I'm
    Obsessing on you
    [Chorus]
    I want to be your babydoll
    Wrap me up nice and tight
    Love me through the night
    Come lay me down
    Enfold me in your arms
    Cover me with velvet kisses
    Rock me on and on
    And whisper softly to me
    You want to be my babydoll
    Zoning out thinking about
    You and me between the sheets
    I want to get intimate
    But you're not within my reach
    So I'll have a little more wine
    And I'll try to drink you
    Out of my head
    And I'll lay awake awhile
    'Til I'm high enough I can
    Forget about you until
    I wake up again
    I want to be your babydoll
    Wrap me up nice and tight
    Love me through the night
    ome lay me down
    Enfold me in your arms
    Cover me with velvet kisses
    Rock me on and on
    And whisper softly to me
    You want to be my babydoll
    Slipping into dreams
    I feel my love surround you
    Ny subconscious seems
    To weave itself around you
    Do you care for me
    Beyond idolization
    Tell me how you feel
    But don't keep me at bay
    'Cause I won't be waiting long
    I want to be your babydoll
    Wrap me up nice and tight
    Love me through the night
    Come lay me down
    Enfold me in your arms
    Cover me with velvet kisses
    Rock me on and on
    And whisper softly to me
    You want to be my babydoll
    I want to be your babydoll
    Wrap me up nice and tight
    Love me through the night
    Come lay me down
    Enfold me in your arms
    Cover me with velvet kisses
    Rock me on and on
    And whisper softly to me
    You want to be my babydoll

    letra de Close My Eyes

    I was wayward child
    With the weight of the world
    That I held deep inside
    Life was a winding road
    And I learned many things
    Little ones shouldn't know
    But I closed my eyes
    Steadied my feet on the ground
    Raised my head to the sky
    And though time's rolled by
    Still feel like that child
    As I look at the monn
    Maybe I grew up
    A little too soon
    Funny how one can learn
    To grow numb to the madness
    And block it away
    I left the worst unsaid
    Let it all dissipate
    And I try to forget
    But I closed my eyes
    Steadied my feet on the ground
    Raised my head to the sky
    And though time's rolled by
    Still feel like that child
    As I look at the monn
    Maybe I grew up
    A little too soon
    Nearing the edge
    Oblivious I almost
    Fell right over
    A part of me
    Will never be quite able
    To feel stable
    That woman-child falling inside
    Was on the verge of fading
    Thankfully I
    Woke up in time
    Guardian angel I
    Sail away on an ocean
    With you by my side
    Orange clouds roll by
    They burn into your image
    And you're still alive
    (You're always alive)
    But I closed my eyes
    Steadied my feet on the ground
    Raise my head to the sky
    And though time's rolls by
    Still feel like that child
    As I look at the monn
    Maybe I grew up
    A little too soon

    letra de Whenever You Call

    Love wandered inside

    Stronger than you

    Stronger than I

    And now that it has begun

    We cannot turn back

    We can only turn into one



    [Chorus:]

    I won't ever be too far away to feel you

    And I won't hesitate at all

    Whenever you call

    And I'll always remember

    The part of you so tender

    I'll be the one to catch your fall

    Whenever you call



    And I'm truly inspired

    Finding my soul

    There in your eyes

    And you

    Have opened my heart

    And lifted me inside

    By showing me yourself

    Undisguised



    [Chorus]



    And I will breathe for you each day

    Comfort you through all the pain

    Gently kiss your fears away

    You can turn to me and cry

    Always understand that I

    Give you all I am inside



    [Chorus]



    I won't ever be too far away to feel you

    And I won't hesitate at all

    Whenever you call

    What's it gonna be?
    Baby baby baby
    Is it him or is it me?
    Don't make me waste my time
    Don't make me lose my mind baby
    Baby baby baby
    Can't you stay with me tonight?
    Oh baby baby baby
    Don't my kisses please you right?
    You were so hard to find
    The beautiful ones they hurt you
    Every time
    Paint a perfect picture
    Bring to life a vision in one's mind
    The beautiful ones
    (The beautiful ones)
    Always smash the picture
    Always every time
    If I told you baby
    That I was in love with you
    Oh baby, baby, baby
    If we got married
    Would that be cool?
    You make me so confused
    The beautiful ones
    You always seems to lose

    letra de Outside

    [Verse: 1]
    It's hard to explain
    Inherently it's just always been strange
    Neither here or there
    Always somewhat out of place everywhere
    Ambiguous
    Without a sense of belonging to touch
    Somewhere halfway
    Feeling there's no one completely the same
    [Chorus:]
    Standing alone
    Eager to just
    Believe it's good enough to be what
    You really are
    But in your heart
    Uncertainty forever lies
    And you'll always be
    Somewhere on the
    Outside
    [Verse: 2]
    Early on, you face
    The realization you don't
    have a space
    Where you fit in
    And recognize you
    Were born to exist
    [Chorus]
    Standing alone
    Eager to just
    Believe it's good enough to be what
    You really are
    But in your heart
    Uncertainty forever lies
    And you'll always be
    Somewhere on the
    Outside
    And it's hard [Repeat: x2]
    [Bridge:]
    Irreversibly
    Falling in between
    And it's hard [Repeat: 1]
    To be understood
    As you are [Repeat: 1]

    Oh, and God knows
    That you're standing on your own
    Blind and unguided
    Into a world divided
    You're thrown
    Where you're never quite the same
    Although you try,try and try
    To tell yourself
    You really are
    But in your heart-uncertainty forever lies
    And you'll always be
    Somewhere on the outside
