Mariah Carey, imperfect angel

MANILA, Philippines - Mariah Carey (photo) sings her heart out once more on her new album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. The album was first introduced with the hit Obsessed that gained utmost popularity both here and the globe-topping music and video charts for several weeks in a row. It is also the perfect follow-up to her award-winning album E=MC2 that reached almost platinum in the Philippines.

As the release of the album is getting close (Sept. 28), Mariah launches her new single, an impressive remake of the ’80s Foreigner hit, I Wanna Know What Love Is. Mariah has been known to do massive covers of love infused classics with the likes of Journey’s Open Arms, Badfinger’s Without You, Def Leppard’s Bringin’ on the Heartbreak and Phil Collins’ Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now). All of these remakes had great contributions to Mariah’s rise to fame and I Wanna Know What Love Is is deemed to be no different.

In line with the release of her new single and the rising anticipation of Mariah fans for the biggest release of the year, MCA Music, Inc. together with Odyssey, Astrovision and Music One give you a taste of Mariah’s new album with a pre-selling that began on Sept. 14.
