Information AboutDaydream (album) |
''Daydream'' is the sixth Album and fourth Studio Album by American singer Mariah Carey , released in the United States on October 3 1995 (see 1995 In Music ) by Columbia Records . Musically, ''Daydream'' was slightly different to Carey's previous albums, and leaned increasingly towards R&B and Hip Hop Music . Publications such as the '' New York Times '', '' People '' magazine and '' TIME '' magazine named it one of the top ten albums of 1995, and it is considered by most to be Carey's signature album. ''Daydream'' debuted at the top of the U.S. '' (1993). It reached number one in the United Kingdom , Switzerland , Germany , Japan and Canada . ''Daydream'' yielded three U.S. chart-toppers: " Fantasy ", " One Sweet Day " (a duet with Boyz II Men ) and " Always Be My Baby ". "Fantasy" debuted on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart at number one, making Carey only the second artist (and the first female) to accomplish this feat; it also spent a record twelve weeks at the top of the Canadian charts. "One Sweet Day" (the album's second single) also debuted at number one, making Carey the only artist at the time to have two number-one single debuts. The song remained at the top of the U.S. charts for sixteen weeks, becoming the single with the longest run at number one. "Always Be My Baby" was the most-played song on U.S. radio in 1996, and like "Fantasy" and "One Sweet Day" it sold well elsewhere. Two non-U.S. singles, " Open Arms " (a cover of the Journey song) and " Forever ", were less successful. The album's final single, " Underneath The Stars ", was a promotional release in the U.S. only. ''Daydream'' and its tracks were nominated for six Grammy Award s including Album Of The Year and Best Pop Vocal Album , winning none. The Album of the Year award was given to '' Jagged Little Pill '' by Alanis Morissette , while the Best Pop Vocal Album award was won by ''Turbulent Indigo'' by Joni Mitchell .
