While her No. 3 entry on The Billboard 200 proved that Mariah Carey's fans are
indeed charmed by Charmbracelet, radio showed less zeal for tepid first single
"Through the Rain," which failed to triumph on the Hot 100. Follow-up "The One,
" another ballad, returns the chanteuse to more dependable R&B waters, featurin
g an uncredited rap in her bid for street cred. But behind the rhymes is that c
haracteristic that makes much of the current disc monotonous: Carey never raise
s her voice above a languid whisper-giving the song no discernable peaks or val
leys-and making it a better side dish for Sunday brunch than a main course for
Carey is capable of landing.-CT hook, this is still not the big fish we know

there's a hero
if you look inside your heart
you don't have to be afraid
of what you are
there's an answer
