Sobre el álbum
La ensoñación de Daydream sumerge al oyente en un universo de pop y R&B sofisticado, marcando una de las etapas más brillantes y exitosas de Mariah Carey. Además, este álbum exploró la colaboración con artistas de hip-hop y una mayor influencia del soul, lo que amplió su sonido y la mantuvo a la vanguardia de la música. Por lo tanto, cada canción se siente como un sueño, una melodía que te transporta a un lugar de pura emoción.
Las melodías son cautivadoras y los ritmos son contagiosos, fusionando baladas poderosas con temas R&B más urbanos y con la presencia de raperos. Así pues, "Fantasy" (con Ol' Dirty Bastard en el remix), "One Sweet Day" (con Boyz II Men) y "Always Be My Baby" se convirtieron en éxitos mundiales, rompiendo récords y dominando las listas. Por otra parte, la voz de Mariah Carey se muestra en su apogeo, con un control vocal impecable y una capacidad para los melismas que la distinguen. En consecuencia, el álbum suena impecable y accesible, una delicia para los amantes del pop-R&B de la más alta calidad.
Asimismo, "Daydream" consolidó la reputación de Mariah Carey como una artista influyente y versátil, capaz de reinventarse y de colaborar con éxito con otros géneros. Por lo tanto, para los que buscan un álbum que combine el virtuosismo vocal con la sofisticación en la producción, este disco es una joya imprescindible. En definitiva, es una prueba irrefutable de la genialidad de Mariah Carey y su habilidad para crear música que, como un sueño diurno, permanece en la mente y el corazón.

Oh, when you walk by every night Talking sweet and looking fine I get kinda hectic inside Mmm, baby I'm so into you Darling, if you only knew All the things that flow through my mind But it's just a sweet sweet fantasy baby When I close my eyes You come and you take me It's so deep in my daydreams But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy baby Images of rapture Creep into me slowly As you're going to my head And my heart beats faster When you take me over Time and time and time again But it's just a sweet sweet fantasy baby When I close my eyes You come and you take me It's so deep in my daydreams But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy baby But it's just a sweet sweet fantasy baby When I close my eyes You come and you take me It's so deep in my daydreams But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy baby I'm in heaven With my boyfriend My laughing boyfriend There's no beginning And there is no end Feels like I'm dreaming But I'm not sleeping But it's just a sweet sweet fantasy baby When I close my eyes You come and you take me It's so deep in my daydreams But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy baby But it's just a sweet sweet fantasy baby When I close my eyes You come and you take me It's so deep in my daydreams But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy baby Sweet sweet fantasy baby Sweet sweet fantasy baby - Underneath The Stars3:33
Letra
One summer night We ran away for a while Laughing, we hurried beneath the sky To an obscure place to hide That no one could find And we drifted to another state of mind And imagined I was yours and you were mine As we lay upon the grass there in the dark Underneath the stars Young love Underneath the stars Weak in the knees Wrapped in the warm gentle breeze So shy A bundle of butterflies Flushed with the heat of desire On a natural high As we drifted to another place in time And the feeling was so heady and sublime As I lost my heart to you there in the dark Underneath the stars Young love Beautiful and bittersweetly You were fading into me And I was gently fading into you But the time went sailing by Reluctantly we said good-bye And left our secret place so far behind And I lay in bed all night and I was Drifting drifting drifting drifting And I was yours And you were my own My own baby As we lay As we... Lay underneath the stars - One Sweet Day4:42
Letra
Sorry I never told you All I wanted to say Now it's too late to hold you Cause you've flown away So far away Never had I imagined Living without your smile Feeling and knowing you hear me It keeps me alive Alive [Chorus] And I know you're shining down on me from heaven Like so many friends we lost along the way And I know eventually we'll be together One sweet day Darling I never showed you Assumed you'd always be there Took your presence for granted But I always cared And I miss the love we shared [Chorus] Although the sun will never shine the same I'll always look to a brighter day Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep You will always listen as I pray [Chorus: x2] Sorry I never told you Together All I wanted to say - Open Arms3:30
Lying beside you here in the dark Feeling your heart beat with mine Softly you whisper you're so sincere How could our love be so blind We sailed on together We've drifted apart And here you are by my side So now I come to you with open arms Nothing to hide believe what I say So here I am with open arms Hoping you'll see what your love means to me Open arms Living without you living alone This empty house seems so cold Wanting to hold you, wanting you near How much I wanted you home But now that you've come back Turned night into day I need you to stay So now I come to you, with open arms Nothing to hide, believe what I say So here I am, with open arms Hoping you'll see what your love means to me Open arms - Always Be My Baby4:20

Letra
Once I was a prisoner Lost inside myself With the world surrounding me Wandering through the misery But now I am free You gave me a breath of life Unclouded my eyes With sweet serenity Lighting a ray of hope for me And now I am free Free to live Free to laugh Free to soar Free to shine Free to give Free to love Free enough to fly Once I was all so alone Unsteady and cold But your love rained down upon me Washing away uncertainty But now I am free - When I Saw You4:24
Letra
Soft heavenly eyes gazed into me Transcending space and time And I was rendered still There were no words for me to find at all As I stood there beside myself I could see you and no one else [Chorus:] When I saw you When I saw you I could not breathe I fell so deep When I saw you When I saw you I'd never be I'd never be the same Only once in a lifetime love rushes in Changing you with the tide And dawn's ribbon of light Bursts through the dark Wakening you inside And I thought it was all untrue Until there all at once I knew [Chorus] With no beginning and Without an end You are the one for me And it's evident And your eyes told me so And your eyes let me know... [Chorus] - Long Ago4:33
Letra
Oahhh Yeah No Yeah yeah yeah Once upon a time You whispered softly in my ear Loving words and fairytales That I longed to hear I gave you my body and soul And you took control As you slowly swept me up And carried me away You told me pretty lies As I held onto you tight You knew how to get your way Ignorance was bliss in your warm embrace Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday Every now and then I drown in thoughts of yesterday And the fools' paradise that you blew away I feel you beside me again And remember when you came to my window On a dark and stormy day Baby, I need you now Tonight I'm crumbling down (down) Sinking in the memories Shadows of you keep washing over me Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) (So long ago) Oh baby, I need you now 'Cause tonight I'm crumbling down Sinking in the memories Shadows of you keep washing over me Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday And take me back to yesterday Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday Long ago You used to want me (Now it's all so far away) Now it's all so far away But you still haunt me And take me back to yesterday - Melt Away3:42
Letra
You come to me with a casual flow And suddenly my defenses start to go When you talk to me in that sensual tone It envelopes me and I lose my self control And baby I just melt away Fall like rain Every time I see your face I go off I just want to break it down Anytime you come around Maybe I could melt away in your arms Imagining that you're taking it slow And so tenderly 'Till the feeling overflows When you look at me I go soft and cave in And I can't conceal that I'm slowly weakening And baby I just melt away Fall like rain Every time I see your face I go off I just want to break it down Anytime you come around Maybe I could melt away in your arms You and me in a cloud of reverie Spin around inside my head unendingly Thoughts run wild as I sit and rhapsodize Paint pretty pictures of what I'd do if you were mine And baby I just melt away Fall like rain Every time I see your face I go off I just want to break it down Anytime you come around Maybe I could melt away in your arms - Forever4:00

Letra
You look at me and see the girl Who lives inside the golden world But don't believe That's all there is to see You'll never know the real me She smiles through a thousand tears And harbors adolescent fears She dreams of all That she can never be She wades in insecurity And hides herself inside of me Don't say she takes it all for granted I'm well aware of all I have Don't think that I am disenchanted Please understand It seems as though I've always been Somebody outside looking in Well here I am for all of them to bleed But they can't take my heart from me And they can't bring me to my knees They'll never know the real me
