She has the best voice for ballads. I love all her songs and these are the best of the best.

Since Visions of Mariah has had her own place in my heart and her music has been the backdrop and soundtrack in my ears over the years. This album is the Mariah Album that I love the most... These are my most favorite songs! Thank you =)

This was the album to beat in the early-mid 90's. Mariah new what girls in love wanted to hear. I enjoyed every beat of this album.

They Say All Music Guide

In 1998, it would have been a cheap joke to say that Mariah Carey had no other kind of hits than ballads, but in the ensuing decade she steadily remade herself into an R&B diva, obscuring if not quite erasing the well-mannered adult contemporary singer of the ’90s. The 2009 compilation The Ballads — released just before Valentines Day 2009 — attempts to turn back the clock by focusing just on those AC tunes — 18 of them, in fact, including such mammoth hits as “Hero,” “One Sweet Day,” “Vision of Love,” “I’ll Be There,” “I Still Believe,” “Dreamlover,” and “Always Be My Baby.” Of course, this concentration on middle of the road ballads is a side effect of label affiliation: The Ballads is a product of Sony, who had Mariah during the ’90s, before the club R&B overshadowed these office-friendly hits, so it’s easier for them to cobble together a comp of Carey at her most sentimental. And that’s what The Ballads is: nothing but big love songs sung in a big voice. For fans who have missed this side of Mariah in the 2000s, this is a welcome reminder of what they used to love. – Stephen Thomas Erlewine
