Subject: Someone Tell Regine This . .


Greetings Regine fans,

If it isn't too late to mention this..

But if some fans will still have the opportunity
to see her in person and want to have something
to say to her that she might find pretty interesting
and significant then mention the things we been
theorizing lately about Mariah Carey.

Looks like there is more than enough that has been
noted for anyone to simply say there is nothing
really there. I always thought there was since I first
heard that Sony Records was interested in signing her
up before. But with all the new information we been
exchanging lately in the interactive board someone
told me it would be a nice thing to let her in on it.

Regine Velasquez being such a big fan of Carey since
she first came out. Wouldn't it be a nice surprise
for her to know that it is 'highly possible' that
Mariah Carey is also a fan of hers! Unfortunately-
if she is its as a closet fan. But maybe its time
to get it opened.

Ask Regine if she knows about Carey's album cover
looking too,too much like R2K. I mean gee! Look at
that! But that isn't even what got me into writing
this post. I saw an ad in the newspaper about giving
away Mariah Carey bracelets for the first buyers of
her album. Something that was done on Regine's last
album. So that should be noted if it helps prove
that Carey is following even Regine's promotional
career moves.

Just a thought. I know it could easily mean that
someone in Sony here was just copying a Regine move too.
So that could be checked by calling up Sony Records.
(I better note Viva's involvement in Regine's career
promotional moves. We're just talking fan talk here.)

But here is the kicker.. I now believe that Carey's
"Through the Rain" was inspired partial by something
she may have seen Regine do or sung. It could have
simply be something so small as just her surfing one
of Regine's web sites and getting an inspiration. But
still, it may have not happened if Mariah Carey wasn't
into something that was Regine related at the time.

Heavy, no? Makes my cat's hair stand-up everytime it
gets mentioned.

But you probably won't have that much time to tell her
all that so just stick with just mentioning about the
similarities of their album covers muna. And if she
liked the idea and wanted to hear more then whoever
does it can get back to me for more of the other
stuff we seen. That way it wouldn't offend people
like Raffy and Zelfred who seemed to have dedicated
their worthless lives into making sure there is no
way none of the things I hoped to see happen with
the artist doesn't ever happen at whatever cost.

But maybe just this once they won't bother to try
and interfere as usual if I can show them its not
me directly but someone I don't even associate with.
Just a regular fan of the list. Who I'm sure is
also a member of RVML1 so no need to be concerned.

And I promise if for some strange reason Regine
wants to know where the source of this information
came from I'll pull out my planetary space chart
and point to some unknown dark section of the
solar system. Is that okey? Can we for once
get something cool passed to Regine via one of
her 'normal' fans without having the Regine
terrorist squad called out? Besides, if there
was such a group you'd think they were formed
to protect Regine and her fans. Even the 'crazy'
ones like me! Not to help her distractors!!

Anyway, good luck to the first Regine fan
who got to mention this cool thing to her.

And remember! It didn't come from me. But
don't say it came from those guys. I think
they took enough credit for the things I
been saying last month alone. Take a break
on this one. Then you can go right back to
sharing my kind of thoughts all you want.
Deal?

Here's a question to the fans of both artists:
Was Carey and Regine born on the same year
by any chance?

hey music man!

u had a question in your previous email..whether mariah and regine were born in the same yes. and why YES in fact they were, except mariah was born b4 regine..only by like a month. mariah's bday is MARCH 27, 1970 while regine's bday is APRIL 22, 1970. so there's there answer to ur question

anyways, i love both mariah and regine...they're both great singers, entertainers, and people. not that i know them personally haha..but that's just what i think. and maybe it's just a coincidence that both of them are doing the same thing..but if it's not, then hey! maybe they are fans of each other which would be a really cool thing. in fact, i wonder if mariah fans know about regine...

did any of you see mariah's new video..well it's not really her's but she's in it. the busta rhymes video. "i know what you want"...hmmm...will we see regine dressed like that too?! i'm sure u guys wouldn't mind seeing that hehe.

but okay i'm done. everyone have fun! i am cuz i'm listening to my regine songs..recently, that's all i've been listening too..hahha..well that's not a bad thing cuz that girl can sang!! alrite take care everyone!

Could you give us a few details about this. I'm mightily curious. What makes you believe so?

Jun completes the incredible
but possible Regine Velasquez
and Mariah Carey connection!

Some of the missing tidbits:
Regine-Carey Tie-ups

Carey's new song 'Through The Rain' is pretty much taken
from one of her 1st hits 'Love Takes Time.' I doubt she
can be sued for stealing the music thingy from one of her
own songs. lol..

The song theme itself could be Carey's own version
of Barry Manilow's 'I Made It Through The Rain.'
The basis for the lyrics inspiration.

But for any of it to have happened may be Regine related.

One theory is that Carey heard or saw a Regine concert
either in (hidden) person or got a copy of the show where
Regine did sing her own version of Manilow's 'I Made It
Through The Rain' and got the idea to write a similar
type song like it for herself. But this could be
considered pretty far fetch.

Most likely Carey surfed into a Regine fan site and saw
something that gave birth to the whole idea. It a fact
that Carey does surf the net whenever she can. And she
even checks out her own fan sites and even put a few
replies out. So it isn't hard to imagine she checks out
the sites of her female counterparts. Especially in Asia.
Especially Regine who is her age and a few days off her
own birthday! And who was the one artist her ex-hubby
was indeed interested in signing before settling instead
for Co-Co Lee. (who describes Regine as the Diva of all
Divas) But I'm sure Regine is one artist that Carey pays
good attention to. This wouldn't be the first time we
believed Carey wrote a song inspired by a song Regine
has recorded or sang in concert. So why not go back for
more? Makes sense to me.

THE SECOND THEORY
What fan web site could I possibly be refering to where
Carey got the idea if she didn't actual see or hear Regine
sing the song I was referring to? And what exact page
I believe Carey got the first idea from?

Check this URL out:

:-) Hey, it freaked me out too.
I can tell you that much!

THE LYRICS POSTED:

We dreamers
have our ways

Of facing rainy days
And somehow we survive
We keep the feelings warm
Protect them from the storm
Until our time arrives

Then one day the sun appears
And we come shining through
those lonely years

When friends
are hard to find

And life seems so unkind
Sometimes you feel so afraid
Just aim beyond the clouds
And rise above the crowds
And start your own parade

'Cause when I chased
my fears away
That's when I knew
I could finally say . .

I made it through the rain
I kept my world protected
I made it through the rain
I kept my point of view

I made it through the rain
And found myself respected
By the others who
Got rained on too
And made it through -

And so can you . .


"I Made It Through the Rain"
(lyrics by Barry Manilow)

Sorry I took long to answer your question, Gandalf..
I needed a quiet internet cafe to think and recall
the details to information like this sometimes.

It wouldn't surprise me if this theory is correct.
The words did apply to recent events in Carey's life
that were so close and so well that I'm not worried
about anyone telling me 'I must be out of your mind.'

Try and find a story like this in the Star Newspaper or
Philippine Inquirer, music fans. lol..

:-)
