My All

Rhythm and blues
Rhythm and blues

My All is a Rhythm and blues act. Their sound grew out of Loose Ends and Toni Braxton. Those roots explain a lot about how My All arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as We Belong Together, Vision of Love, My Heart Will Go On, Set Fire to the Rain and Back to Black, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Next and Michael Jackson, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 9 connections around My All, reaching back through Loose Ends and forward to Next. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.

Background

"My All" is a song by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey from her sixth studio album, Butterfly (1997). It was released as the album's fifth and final single overall and second commercial single on April 21, 1998, by Columbia Records. The song was written and produced by Carey and Walter Afanasieff. "My All" is built around Latin guitar chord melodies, and makes subtle use of Latin percussion throughout the first chorus, before taking on a more conventional R&B-style beat. Carey was inspired to write the song and use Latin inspired melodies after a trip to Puerto Rico, where she was influenced by the culture. The song's lyrics tell of a lonely woman declaring she would give "her all" to have just one more night with her estranged lover. It is the first song Carey wrote for the Butterfly album.
