I wish someone would comment on these songs. Big fans probably know more about what they mean than I do. But is this about sexual abuse? The last two verses mainly make me think that... |

| Mariah Carey – Petals Lyrics
| 23 years ago

It's been rumored that the 'dandelion' is Mariah's older sister Alison, who had problems with drug abuse, got pregnant at an early age, etc. "Valentine" was Tommy Mottola's old stage name when he sang (YES, he did. ha ha I have no idea if he was good in any way). The "boy and girl" are harder to figure out.
The song is about the fact that, although Mariah loves these people, the circumstances between them have made things difficult. |

This is also one of the best songs Mariah has ever written. People hate her that don't know anything about her. In the end, there's no way to make anyone understand who you really are. |

I think this song, even though it's inspirational like "Hero", came out of a time of ultimate frustration for Mariah. I don't know if this was due to problems with her record label, or other things, but it is not just another sappy ballad. The message is that with inner-strength, you can overcome anything. Not only does Mariah write about it, but she's a living example of faith and perserverance, which is why the song means more to fans than to people who know nothing about Mariah except the things the media makes up. |

| Mariah Carey – Butterfly Lyrics

Lyrically and musically, this is one of Mariah's best-written songs. It is probably inspired by her divorce, which left her both sad because she really loved her husband, and relieved that she was finally doing the right thing by breaking away from a time in her life that she described as "the height of her unhappiness". |
