 Mariah Carey's New Album Title Is the Best Album Title of All Time 

Nolan Feeney @NolanFeeney   May 1, 2014


此專輯名稱的詭異指數：7~8/10

On a scale of 1 to The Emancipation of Mimi, how weird is Mariah Carey's new 
album title? Probably around a 7 or 8

After suggesting that she would release her new album Beyoncé-style (while
perhaps missing the point of what Beyoncé-style actually means), Mariah
Carey finally unveiled the title of her upcoming album on Wednesday. This is
what it's called:

Me. I Am Mariah… The Elusive Chanteuse.


專輯名稱特色：

1. 不尋常的標點符號使用；
2. 單字有難度；
3. 每個diva都有一張"Here I Am"類型專輯名稱，但瑪咪咪換個方式講、脫穎而出。

And that title is quite something. It has unusual punctuation, Pre-SAT vocab
words and a spin on the all-too-common, self-affirming Here I Am-esque album title that a diva seems required to put out at least
once in her career.


童年畫作若成為專輯封面會非常棒 (可惜瑪咪咪執迷於擺pose這件事情上)。

In its defense, though, the name comes from her “first and only”
 self-portrait, a childhood drawing that would have actually made compelling
album artwork if Carey wasn't so interested in trying to win America's Next
Top Model with her album poses. “Please don't judge me for such a
simplistic title,” Carey says in a video announcing the project, “Come on,
I was only three and a half.”


要比專輯名稱拗口，瑪咪咪不是第一。
倒是她藉由此專輯替自己正名：請叫我chanteuse！

The title could certainly be more of a mouthful than it already is (looking
at you, Neko Case and Fiona Apple), and it will no doubt help
synonym-challenged music writers who are torn between calling her a chanteuse
or a siren or a songstress or a diva — chanteuse it is, in her own words!


其他人也想要學這一招？等你發第14張專輯再說吧！

But lastly, and most importantly? When your new record is your fourteenth
studio album, you've earned the right to call it whatever you want.
