Mariah Carey - Slipping Away (Official Audio) 

I still can’t believe I can listen to this legally now I wanna cry

Proof Daydream is one of the best albums of all time. Even the "scraps" were gold. Slipping Away and One Night sounds like number 1 songs

Literally broke up my 3yr relationship today and miss Carey’s always there for me😭

"Slipping Away" So far, so far You're slipping away, away You're slipping away from the life and the love we made Baby, I'm so afraid So far, so far, so far You're slipping away, away You're slipping right out of my grasp When you're fading fast it seems You know you're slipping away from me I keep on reaching and I I keep on trying But you never even hold me And it seems like you don't know me, baby I keep on yearning and I I guess I'm learning That it's just a losing fight 'Cause there's no passion in your eyes So far, so far You're slipping away, away Slipping away from the life and the love we made Baby, I'm so afraid So far, so far, so far You're slipping away, away Slipping right out of my grasp When you're fading fast it seems You know you're slipping away from me I keep denying that our Our love is dying But it's all a big charade And it's a fruitless game to play I can't remember when you You last were tender And it's always touch and go The silence chills me to the bone So far, so far You're slipping away, away You're slipping away from the life and the love we made Baby, I'm so afraid So far, so far, so far You're slipping away, away Slipping right out of my grasp When you're fading fast it seems When you're slipping away from me Away, away, away, away, yeah Further, further (Further, further) Ooh, yeah You're so far Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me You're so far So far, so far, you're slipping away, away Slipping away from what we had Truly, I just don't understand You're so far, so far, so far You're slipping away, away You're slipping right out of my grasp When you're fading fast it seems You know you're slipping away from me Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me

I'VE WAITED FOR THIS DAY TO COME OMG 😭😭😭

LETS GET THIS TO #1 AS IT SHOULD HAVE DONE BACK IN '95

This song is literally perfection. Vocals, stacking, arrangements, production, melodies, background vocals, lyrics, subject matter, atmosphere. Mariah thee Carey is a musical goddess.

Slipping Away is a silent tragedy not being a single. Not being on Daydream. Vindication today with a proper release (finally)!

I CANT BELIVE WE'RE REALLY HAVING THIS, OMG I DONT THINK I DESERVE IT 😭😭😭

her music is therapeutic

The best hidden gem from her.

She is ... the mother I never had. She is ... the sister everybody would want. She is the friend that everybody deserves. I don't know a better person. I don't know a better person

2:47 underneath the stars says "hi"

THINGS SHE DID: THAT!!!! THANK YOU MARIAH. I LOVE YOU SOOOOOO FREAKING MUCH.

Arguably the greatest song from Daydream...and it wasn't even on the album...lol

To me slipping away, Do you think of me and everything fades away are her trinity of rare songs. LAMB FOR LIFE🐑 🦋

Daydream era masterpiece! 💎 👑 🇧🇷 🐑

Almost 30 years and this song still goes hard! Definitely should be released!

Had this version for over 10 years Glad the rest of the world gets to hear it 🔥🔥🔥🔥

OH MY GOD SHE FINALLY RELEASED IT!

I am not prepared for today my favorite unreleased Mariah Carey song in HD 😨😭😭😭😭😭

Mottola knew this was about him for sure. He was probably pissed off even more at how RnB it sounds.

This deserves to be her No 1 . RNB at its finest ❤️

Daydream, is literally in the top 5 best pop albums ever, it has it ALL.

No one ever naturally loved me and saw me for who I really am. "Even the most gifted, compassionate, progressive person cannot easily overcome being completely rejected by their mother. To have the love of a mother is too primal a need." That's where it all stems from, always

Damn. Its like she was telling us about her hellish relationship with Tornado Mottorola the whole time!

This my favorite song

Mariah been keeping us fed lately! This song really deserved a spot on Daydream. Her lower register on this track is everything.

a masterpiece of a cool and breezy summertime track infused with a cool RnB slow funk beat to compliment Mariah' s smooth vocals LOVE IT!

IM LITERALLY LISTENING TO THIS ON LOOP BECAUSE IVE WAITED FOR THIS TO BE ON SPOTIFY FOR YEARS

This is by far one of her best songs, it makes me so sad it didn't make into Daydream

We NEED THIS KINDA RNB playing ON THE RADIO AND on the BILLBOARDS top 100!! 🔥 this is Real soul rnb vibes

Her best song finally, officially released. We love you Mariah.❤

DONT GO ACTING like this isn't one of her top 5 songs EVER dahling

so this is how we feel when listening to slipping away in HQ 😭😭😭

gosh!! that 90s beat! I love this!! 🥰🥰🥰

I blame Toyota Corolla for not adding this to Daydream, this literally could have been a hit

This is just so damn good Definitely would have been a #1 in the 90's Mariah at her best

1996...this was on the cd single to Always Be My Baby. It sounds just as good today as it did then.

9th most favorite Mariah Carey song of all time. The best song in Rarities if it is the first time we heard it. ❤❤

that voice never fail to touch your soul

The best part of 2020! Thanks for the gift, Mariah!!!!!!! Never disappoints!

I actually had this song on “always be my baby” single cd. It had this as a b side. I’ve always loved this song.

YES MARIAH DID THAT! 🙏🏼❤️

This would have hit #1 easily back in the 90s. What was her team thinking?!

Best B-side!

Finally i get to listen to this lamb fave mariah song... Its worth the wait.

MARIAH IS MY RELIGION

I want this to be her 20th number 1 ❤

This should have been a single. The best of this album for sure.

her voice has healing power

This rides. HARD. This deserves to be #22. SN. In another universe this is a DC4 song from writings on the wall

real lambs have been listening to this song for over 15 years lol

Hidden Gem!!! Anytime you hear a choir/harmonised singing behind Mariah, don't hit FF.

I don't need therapy, I listen to Mariah Carey. Her voice soothes the soul.

My song still.

Te amo más que a nada en este cosmos Mimi, GRACIAS

Vanishing R&B version

It's Mariah Carey's time now. She's going to become the biggest-selling artist and biggest touring act and most acclaimed singer of ALL time. She's at 173m EAS currently (vide chartmaster). The Beatles, who are #1, are currently over 400m. For Mariah Carey to overtake them, it seems IMPOSSIBLE. But it IS going to happen, because it is MY wish. Bookmark/save this comment.

Mariah kills r&b queen

This should be a number one!!!! So nostalgic! Classic Mariah

So happy I can hear this in hd lol!

The best song of that CD! I cant wait for "The Rarities Tour 2021" 😄

Discover this one song at the age of 22....... Such a pleasant discovery!

It has since charted in the top 200 of ITunes. The first time it's be able to achieve this. Let's get it further

BAAAAAAABYYYYYYYYYY💖⭐💫💫💫

How this never made the album and wasn’t a single I’ll never know. Whoever was in charge of decisions is stupid!

This song touched my soul one of the greatest

Advance Merry Christmas to all the lambs

This definitely has that very chill mid 90s sound to it.

OMG this is the best ever who agree#2020 Lamb forever❤

SLIPPING AWAY YESSS

You can hear Kelly Price's voice clearly in the background. Go, Girl! I LOVE this song.

The first notes sounded similar to Circles! ❤️

This song should have been so it should now be #1!!!!

Middle day cooking lunch and being done and all sudden I remember this song that came into my mind wow it’s been 23 years and I still remembered like I was little girl in the 90s my mom apartment jamming to this song. Thank you Mimi for the great childhood music memory you have giving me🦋

This song represents when music (and life) was at its best!!! If this isn’t my favorite MC, it’s in the top 10 for sure! 🧡

*THE FIRST 25 SECONDS OF THE SONG IS GIVING ME STRONG TONI BRAXTON VIBES*

Love this song !!! Album is full of bops!

Been blasting this for years prior to this

It is finally officially here!

Slipping Away on streaming!

Mannn, this is so unreal. Look like an perfectional dream!!!!!!

As my marriage emotionally melts away beyond my ability for me to confront my own conflicts with everything that I idealized as perfectly perfect 😮

Come Thru Mariah!

I’m glad that there’s an official upload of this. One week ago? Wild! I remember having the black “single” CD with this and “Always Be My Baby” on it. Who here still has that CD? 😄❤️ We love you, Mariah!

Background vocals were heavenly ♥️

This song is so so Amazing ❤❤

#JusticeforSlippingAway

Ooh ya!

This songshould have been on the Daydream, unless it was recorded in 1996 since it was a B side to ABMB . I think if Mimi does video to this, and releases this as a single, it will hit Top spot NO DOUBT 🙌🙌

released as “open arms” b-side in Australia. fantastic song❣️❣️❣️

Wowww an array of Emotions Went from melt away to slipping away to finally everything fades away 🤷🏾‍♂️

It was being a regular day until I discovered this song, now I can't stop listening it on repeat. The 25 years of waiting have been worth it. Thank you Mariah, you will never slip away from my memory.

🦋 😭 I've waited for this Day come... ‼️ 😢🦋❤️🦋

Can't stop hearing this song. It's so emotional. Love it so much.

Tommy Motola, probably in self-denial, didn't add this gem to the album since Mariah was on the edge of seeking a divorce lawsuit

This Always make me think about “ Faded” from Me I Am Mariah!

Seriously obsessed with this song! listening to it on loop. Thank you Mariah! This is proof that Daydream is the best album, even the scrapped songs are amazing!! 💖💖💖

slipping away is one of my fave ever since 💕
