Hate to break it to cricketsandcrows, but I heard it from Julio himself that the actual name of the song is "Cotton Nymph". There's actually a lengthy story about how they arrived on that title, but he said that the liner notes are a misnomer and the song is not called "Mariah" or "Mariah... You On Fire". The initial name was a joke because they couldn't think of a name for the song and they all said the chorus sounded like an early 90's Mariah Carrey song. When they submitted the name to the record label, they took the joke even further by quoting the Mariah Carrey song "Honey" in the title. By the time they had picked a real name for the song, the joke title had been printed on all of the art for the pressing. So the actual name of the song has ended up being "Cotton Nymph", and not "Mariah", "Mariah... You on Fire", or "A Soft Hum".
