It's no "Fancy"
First released on July 27, 1993 by Columbia Records, as the lead single from Carey's third studio album Music Box. It was written by Carey and Dave Hall, and was produced by the pair and Walter Afanasieff. The song incorporates a sample of the hook from "Blind Alley" by The Emotions into its melody and instrumentation. "Dreamlover" helped Carey's transition into the pop music market, a choice made following the mixed reception to her previous studio effort Emotions (1991), which featured gospel and 1960s soul influences. Lyrically, the song pictures a protagonist calling for a perfect lover, her "dreamlover," that will whisk her away into the night and not disillusion her like her exes did in the past.
"Dreamlover" was Carey's seventh number one single on the Billboard Hot 100, topping the chart in its sixth week and stayed there for eight consecutive weeks (September 5 to October 30, 1993)—her longest stay at the time.
It replaced "Can't Help Falling in Love" by UB40, and was later replaced by Meat Loaf's "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)."
It spent 26 weeks in the top 40 and was ranked number eight on the Hot 100 1993 Year-End Charts and 20 on the Decade-End Charts.
The song was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), denoting shipments of over one million units throughout the United States.
"Dreamlover" holds the title of the highest debuting song on the Billboard Pop Songs chart, entering the chart at number 12 on the week dated August 14, 1993.

Y'all must have missed his whole "I can't get aids because I'm not a faggot" routine last night.DMJ is permed?
The worst part is she has no real legacy to fall back on even compared to Knee. Her impact:receipts ratio is absurdly low looking at her in 2014.Matthew is over, he can't even sell over his daily calorie intake.
You mean it's all downhill from here?

Good riddance.
At least, unlike others, she will always have one of the BEST-SELLING SINGLES OF ALL-TIME, a HOLIDAY STANDARD. She succeeded where many others failed: she won CHRISTMAS.
No impact? Pfft, they will be listening to All I Want for Christmas is You when we are all dead and buried.
They can say,
Anything they want to say,
Try to bring me down,
But I will not allow anyone to succeed
Hangin' clouds over me,
And they can try hard
To make me feel that I don't matter at all,
But I refuse to falter in what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams
'Cause there's,
There's a light in me,
That shines brightly,
They can try,
But they can't take that away from me
From me
you know something is amiss when your most iconic song is the one that needs to be played in heavy rotation once a year in order to remain remembered. at least the imagined relevance that comes with that song keeps her head in proportion to the rest of her body.
shine bright like a diamondWhy do the Sacrifical Lambs keep bringing up that tired Hannukah song up every time Matthew is dragged from her dry, balding, and rotund scalp? Something went wrong with your career if you are only remembered for sharing a track list with Rudolph and donning a poorly tailored Santa outfit once a year:
