'''''Charmbracelet World Tour: An Intimate Evening With Mariah Carey''''' ([[2003]]–[[2004]]) was the fifth [[concert tour]] by [[United States|American]] singer-songwriter [[Mariah Carey]], in support of her twelfth album, ''[[Charmbracelet]]'' ([[2002]]). Among her tours, it is most notable for being the biggest and longest tour in her career. |
|||
==Tour information== |
|||
In 2003, Carey decided to go on tour to help promote the poorly selling ''Charmbracelet''. The concerts were originally to take place within large stadiums, but switched at the last minute to smaller venues. Carey said she wanted to get closer to the fans; critics attributed the switch to low sales. |
|||
Carey's [http://www.mariahcarey.com official site] asked fans to design and submit set lists for the show, though the songs Carey ended up performing differed from their preferences. A second poll was then introduced asking fans to vote for one of three songs: "Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)" won for almost every night of the tour, "One Sweet Day" won a few times, and "Love Takes Time" never won. |
|||
Nearly seventy shows took place over eight months. This made this tour not only Carey's largest tour ever in her career, but also her longest one. Carey's previous international tours had restricted themselves to [[Japan]], a few [[Europe]]an countries, and the United States. They had also beeen very short and had consisted usually only a few months compared to the nearly year long tour here. For this tour, Carey visited additional countries such as [[United Arab Emirates]] and [[Lebanon]]. |
|||
The long running length of the tour had actually not been planned. After the initial stretch of the tour, Carey decided to add additional dates. For new new dates, she performed a more condensed show, cutting off several songs from the setlist and perfroming new songs in their place with Christmas elements during seasonal periods. |
|||
Carey's sexual image also generated some controversy during the tour. In various countries, she was often criticised for her choice of dress, and a [[Pan-Islamism|Pan-Islamic]] youth leader attempted to have her banned from performing in [[Malaysia]] [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/music/3402201.stm]. Carey was permitted to perform in more conservative countries, but wore less sexy clothes there. |
|||
==Performances== |
|||
Although Carey had previously worn more sexual and colorful costumers since her last tour, she decided to change them up further by introducing more clashing colors. As opposed to the relative harmony of her previous tours, the outfits on this tour churned out to stick out by purposedly clashing or by being relatively unusual. As in most of her tours, a typical Carey show on this tour would begin with an instrumental introduction; in this tour, "Looking In" (just like the tour for ''Butterfly''). However, unlike the ''Butterfly'' tour, this version was in a new, more upbeat remixed form segued with a short pre-recorded medley of her hits. |
|||
Following the introductions, Carey would perform her first set which would include a medley of "[[Heartbreaker (Mariah Carey song)|Heartbreaker Remix]]", "[[Dreamlover]]", |
|||
"[[Through the Rain]]", and "[[My All]]". These were typical live Carey arrangements. The medley of "Heartbreaker" was separated by their verses, "Through the Rain" featured new background arrangements, and "My All" would end with its dance remix. |
|||
Following an interlude from a clown, Carey would then proceed to perform "Clown". Carey then typically announced the song picked from her website, normally "[[Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)|Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)]]". She would perform "[[Honey (Mariah Carey song)|Honey]]". While "Clown" was close to the album version, Carey combined the Bad Boy remix and album version of "Honey" , and rearranged the melodies of "Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)". |
|||
After a quick costume change, Carey returned in a motorbike outfit to perform "[[I Know What You Want]]", singing only the bridge (However, the rest of the song was performed by playing the song's music videos and having background vocalists add new arrangements over the performance track.) She then changed again for "Subtle Invitation" and "My Saving Grace" before introducing the band melodically in the "Band Introduction" (Unlike band introductions of other artists, Carey literally sings their names aloud when introducing them). [[Trey Lorenz]], who was also a background vocalist for the tour, joined Carey in singing "[[I'll Be There (Mariah Carey song)|I'll Be There]]". Carey would then leave the stage and Lorenze proceeded to perform a song of his own, usually "Friend of Mine". This was followed by a costume change by Carey to ''The Rose''-like attire to perform "[[Bringin' on the Heartbreak]]". |
|||
Other songs like "[[Fantasy (Mariah Carey song)|Fantasy (Bad Boy Remix)]]","[[Always Be My Baby]]", "[[Make It Happen]]" and "[[Without You (Mariah Carey song)|Without You]]" followed. At the end of "Without You", Carey bowed out, but she would come back for an encore of "[[Hero (Mariah Carey song)|Hero]]" which was followed by the outro of "[[Butterfly (Mariah Carey song)|Butterfly (Outro)]]". |
