Mariah Carey [1] may be a household name when it comes to Christmas music [2] or '90s and 2000s pop and R&B hits, but anyone attempting Mariah Carey Heardle [3] knows her catalogue is far more extensive. This daily game is one of the latest musical spinoffs [4] of the popular Wordle [5], and the latest in a growing collection of artist-specific Heardle games [6]. Each day, players have six attempts to identify the day's Carey song from brief bursts of the start of the song.

With more than 200 unique or remixed songs over Carey's career so far, you might struggle to guess the correct song in such a short clip. To keep the game from being a "Heartbreaker," we've assembled the first lyrics of every Mariah Carey [7] song from her studio albums. Good luck, Lambs, and keep that streak alive!
