This week on The Obsessed Podcast, it’s an anniversary special as Gareth & Ghia dive into one of the most iconic anthems in Mariah’s classic catalogue — her 11th US number 1 single… Always Be My Baby.

.

From that instantly recognisable opening riff to Mariah’s effortless runs, we break down what makes this track a timeless classic. Also unpacking the song’s foundations, the layers, its chart-topping success, and the genius songwriting behind that unforgettable hook.

.

G&G explore how it helped solidify Mariah’s reign during her Daydream era and why it still hits decades later.

.

Is it the melody? The layered harmonies?

The “you’ll always be a part of me” delusion we’ve all lived through at least once?

.

Join us as we analyse the vocals, production, cultural impact, and the emotional staying power of a song that proves some loves — and some hits — never really go away.

.

Because it will always be your baby, no matter what you do!
