Mariah Carey - Meteorite Lyrics






Gotta get up
Cause you know the world is waiting
Can you keep up
Everyone you see is racing

And you, know what you are
It's true
You will go far

Cause you got the night to light up the sky
Meteorite in front of every eye
A shooting star
Your fame is the flame
They watch you burn up, turned up, turnt up all the way

Meteorite-ite-ite
Meteorite-ite-ite
Meteorite-ite-ite
Meteorite-ite-ite
Meteorite-ite-ite

So here we go,
Oh wasn't it what all you saying
Put on your show
Try to make it entertaining

And you know what you are
It's true
You will go far

Cause you got the night to light up the sky
Meteorite in front of every eye
A shooting star
Your fame is the flame
They watch you burn up, turn up, turnt up all the way

Meteorite-ite-ite
Meteorite-ite-ite
Meteorite-ite-ite
Meteorite-ite-ite
Meteorite-ite-ite

Cause you got the night to light up the sky
Meteorite in front of every eye
A shooting star
Your fame is the flame
As they watch you burn up, turn up, turnt up all the way
Yeah you got to burn up all the way
Yeah you got to turn up all the way
Yeah you got to turnt up all the way
Like meteorite

Mariah Carey Meteorite Comments
  1. i.... s....

    "Me. I Am Mariah...The Elusive Chanteuse" was criminally underrated.
    "Caution" on the other hand could've been better. She should do more Pop and Ballad Songs instead of these forced R&B Tracks.

    i.... s....

    Both ir them are so underrated!

  2. l.... d....

    Mariah is Mother

  3. K.... R....

    This album is so underrated.

  4. E.... N....

    This Girl can sing the phonebook

  5. G.... ....

    Gotta get her
    Did you know the world is waiting
    Can you keep up
    Everyone you see is racing
    And you
    You know what you are
    It’s true
    You will go find


    'Cause you got the night
    To light up the sky
    Meteorite in front of every eye
    A shooting star
    Your fame is a flame
    As they watch you burn up
    Turn up, turned up all the way


    Meteorite


    So here we go
    Wasn’t it what all you saying
    Put on your show
    Oh try to make it entertaining
    And you
    Know what you are
    It’s true
    You will go find


    'Cause you got the night
    To light up the sky
    Meteorite in front of every eye
    A shooting star
    Your fame is a flame
    As they watch you burn up
    Turn up, turned up all the way


    Meteorite


    'Cause you got the night
    To light up the sky
    A meteorite in front of every eye
    A shooting star
    Your fame is a flame
    As they watch you burn up
    Turn up, turned up all the way


    Yeah you have to turn up all the way
    Yeah you have to turn up all the way
    Yeah you have to turn up all the way
    Yeah you have to turn up all the way
    Yeah you have to turn up all the way

  6. B.... B....

    fantastic song paid dust again. smdh

  7. w.... e....

    a hidden gem....

  8. A.... M....

    Goin' Up In Smoke

  9. l.... ....

    She sounds like Beyoncé to me in this but I luvvitt

  10. M.... B....

    It’s honestly so sad this wasn’t a big hit. It’s such a great song! Shame on her record label at the time.

  11. J.... W....

    My least favorite song from that particular album probably. Sounds like that one Simply Red song, Fairground I think it's called.

  12. C.... C....

    I need more disco from Mariah!

  13. B.... M....

    she is timeless.

  14. M.... T....

    Wow it really sounds like 1995 Mariah singing towards the end😍

  15. C.... ....

    MC is serving you an education, a song and vocals! Legend.

  16. S.... C....

    All it needs is Max Martin to tweak that stupid Meteorite repeat crap into a memorable chorus and there's another number 1 single to the catalogue. 'cause you’ve got the night to light up the sky should be a pre chorus section but it builds to nothing. Definitely another gem rushed :(

  17. P.... J....

    I love your music.

  18. F.... P....

    Uh.. Eddie Kendricks - Going up in Smoke is in the house... isn't it???

  19. B.... P....

    put on your show and try to make it entertaining!!!!

  20. B.... P....

    very 70s

  21. G.... ....

    She sounds like she has a stuffy nose when she says meteorite. Other than that I like this song!

  22. M.... H....

    I personally love this song... so addictive! I wish even those that are not her fans can be able to hear this amazing song. I just know they will love this.

  23. A.... G....

    This is a MiMi-Orite!

  24. W.... B....

    it's a shame that this album was not promoted properly because she had some really good singles on this album.

  25. d.... ....

    Mariah is certainly not the smartest woman on earth since she never use her true capacity to do something much better with her own carreer... THIS TRACK IS THE BEST EXAMPLE THAT SHE CAN DO GREAT MUSIC NOT THE OVER SWEET AND CHEESY THINGS SHE USE TO..!

    d.... ....

    dimoteau The sweet and cheesy things, as you say, are timeless masterpieces, heavenly ballads that made her estabilish herself as one of the biggest Legends of all time.

  26. P.... L....

    when you think its already LIT just put in 1.25X
    youre welcome.

  27. O.... G....

    Andy Warhol said, “In the future, everybody will be famous”
    No, he said, “Everybody will be world-famous for 15 minutes”
    For 15 minutes…

  28. m.... ....

    Somebody need to choose better her singles... Beautiful did a good job, and should be followed by Meteorite ou You dont know what to do

  29. R.... V....

    My favorite song off the album

  30. J.... J....

    I'm so proud of her!

  31. P.... E....

    i want to stay shining and turnt up all the way!!!! lololo

  32. J.... C....

    Amazing vocals

  33. E.... M....

    i don't know why Mariah doesn't do a lot of dance records, i think her dance songs are brilliant, Meteorite, and Fantasy Dub Remix are the perfect example

    E.... M....

    Well if she did she would #slay But also that would also give another Reason for jennifer to be a bitch

    E.... M....

    but mariah would slay jennifer lopez at her own game

    E.... M....

    She did a lot of dance records Maybe u dont know them Theses are remixes

    E.... M....

    Emotions,You don't know what to do

  34. s.... a....

    This is a amazing track of this album....b.i.t.c.h.!....i love this song Mimi...the second single never reallesed....love it!!

  35. d.... ....

    if this was released as a single it would have been a hit

  36. S.... W....

    Eddie Kendricks - Goin Up in Smoke (1976) in the background

  37. 3.... ....

    This should've been a single for sure. I know it would've been on the charts!!!

  38. C.... D....

    Man, only if this masterpiece album of hers was heavily promoted, she would've scored like 3 new number one hits, like this, YDWTD, and Faded... Barely no one knew about the album. I hope her new team promotes her work well, because she deserves it! #infinity

    C.... D....

    +Krayola D Krayola, please do us all a favor and just move on to a Rihanna video.  You hate Mariah and wish her death....we all get it.  If others like her, what's it to you?  And please spare me another lame, long ass post trying to explain your position that "you don't really hate Mariah".....We're all just reading between the lines.  It's fine if you hate her.....really, it is.  Others don't.  Move on please and let's just get over this already.

    C.... D....

    +Krayola D Mariah had 14 number ones in 10 years so that point is void. Also, Rihanna sells singles -- not albums. Hence why her record sales are high. But a 1.29 single is nothing compared to a 10.00+ album. Hence why Mariah still wins.

    C.... D....

    +Krayola D bitch you were just on instagram talking shit about Queen Mariah, sit tf down if she's so irrelevant why must you come to her videos and stalk her instagram to talk shit...bitch you're low-key obsessed with her....you're dismissed😘😂😂😂

    C.... D....

    @Krayola D Stay tf off her instagram if she's so "irrelevant" lmao thirsty ass bitches always want attention😂😂😂

    C.... D....

    @Krayola D You sound mad 😂😂😂😂 if she's so "irrelevant" why are you stalking her?

  39. E.... Z....

    I can't believe how underrated this song is!

    E.... Z....

    i've been watching some of her interviews from this era and it seems she really wanted people to experience this album as a body of work rather than a collection of singles charting on the billboard hot 100. while i think mariah's displayed her artistic proficiency in all of her albums, i think this album was more for the lambs!

    E.... Z....

    Mariah is the best voice in the world and will always be and her talent in writing songs is genial! shut up you don't know anything about her...

    E.... Z....

    I looooove this song.

  40. P.... F....

    Going... Yes, sinners prayed disobeyed. The word coming down. That's right we're going. Going.... The ad libs on the song is sampled from Eddie Kendricks going up in smoke.

    P.... F....

    I'm sorry. Sinner's played disobeyed. lol my bad.

  41. M.... M....

    Another fantastic song by Mariah

  42. F.... -....

    Q-TIP helped produce this classic.  Those two together= MAGIC!!!! I've been dancing to this like non-stop

  43. t.... d....

    when I hear this song I think of the perfect video for it. ariana decided to do a space them for her song but it doesn't match. this song matches it. who else agrees.

  44. M.... ....

    Meteorite and You Don't Know What To Do should have been singles 

  45. a.... s....

    This so song is the best thing i've heard so far......soooo ADDICTING

  46. A.... A....

    It's good song for dancing!

  47. d.... ....

    This song takes me back to the nights I spent at LIQUID on South Beach

  48. S.... A....

    es mi cancion favorita de este album me gusta muchisimo la amo a mariah

  49. R.... T....

    je comprend pas pourquoi on la compare  a ariana grande (alias nul à chier), il suffit juste d'ecouter et de voir qu'il y a un monde entre mariah carey qui controle sa voix parfaitement,  et qui est reconnaissable parmi des millions de voix, en plus d'avoir une voix trés particuliere , c'est une vrai artiste  et une certaine ariana qui se prend pour je ne sais qui et qui ne fait que crier , qui ne controle pas  bien sa voix puisque la plupart  du temps elle me casse les oreilles et qui plus est,  n'a pas de talent ni de personnalité artistique, elle se compare à mariah carey en essayant de chanter comme elle , ce qui prouve qu'elle n'a aucune personnalité, et qu'elle se suestime ! lol je ne comprendrait jamais.... ^^

    R.... T....

    Exactement

  50. C.... N....

    This song hurts my ears :( . I prefer her other albums....

    C.... N....

    It hurts your ears? What weak ears you have then. 

  51. V.... ....

    So many songs that I like from her new album, this song makes me dance no matter what. She sang it at her concert here in Tokyo. Boy how I enjoyed it...

  52. A.... J....

    Why this song isn't at the top of the charts right now, is a mystery to me.  It's pure magic.  Can't believe so many people have given up on Mariah.  I know she's a bit wacky but her genius as an artist has never been more evident than on this album.  I've had it for months now and am still blown away by it and totally love this song. 

    A.... J....

    Really, very good!

  53. s.... ....

    MIDI you're right!

  54. B.... ....

    rhythm GREAT
    beat GREAT
    sing GREAT
    but story of this song ....

  55. I.... L....

    Requested a refund from the Google Play store and they granted it. Nufff said.

    I.... L....

    And that matters because?

    I.... L....

    @Eddy6159 because I SAID SO don't be testing me honey boo boo

    I.... L....

    Understand that no matter where you are you can be read and checked. No ones ever exempt from that. I just asked a basic question. It's not my issue if you interpreted it negatively.

    I.... L....

    Why the hells would you request a refund? You deserve to be boiled in a pot of various kinds of oils!

  56. j.... ....

    when she got this body? NEVER!! ONLY IN HER DREAMS. OR here thanks to PHOTOSHOP. She never realized that her best part is her voice, NOT YOUR BODY, but you are obssesed about this, you are now old, and still not having THE BODY!!!!MORON

    j.... ....

    She was this skinny in 2013 when she took the album cover shoot. --> https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcR5XymlCkVU_o7tbsDnb4cF_UgdLRr7ngmdU24ffEQTFRpJ_OU8Fg

    j.... ....

    ok cool but get this, who cares?? if she wants to put her body out there for the world to see then hell yeah that's awesome for her and she's not asking for your approval so ????????

  57. I.... D....

    LETZGO!!!!

  58. D.... Y....

    Great song!

  59. M.... D....

    I just wish people just take the time and listen to her songs on this album... they will be amazed on how much she accomplished

  60. M.... F....

    my LEAST favorite song from the album but even it is growing on me.. MAriah can make me like anything I swear lol

  61. C.... D....

    This song should definitely be released as a single!!! It will surely become a HIT!! :D

  62. s.... t....

    Mariah tem que lançar essa música como single

  63. v.... l....

    it's a pure guilty pleasure dancish anthem!!!!

  64. v.... l....

    my thoughts exactly felo4444..i sensed it...

  65. a.... ....

    No 1 for defo her sexy voice amazng !
    MARIAH CAREY UR THE QUEEN OF MUSIC ! :-P :-D

  66. M.... ....

    CAN U IMAGINE A MORALES REMIX!
    this is classic Mariah, and i pity those that disagree....

  67. A.... G....

    Too bad she only hit those beautiful high notes at the end :( I wait the whole song for the last 30 seconds lol

    A.... G....

    That's the beauty of this song Ariel.  It teases the listener as it builds up to those last 25 seconds.  Makes you appreciate those notes even more.  This is a great Mariah song and those notes at the end are phenomenal.  What popular contemporary singer out there today could belt those notes like that?  Katy? Gaga?  Miley? (please) Beyoncé?  Fantasia?  Mary J?  Ariana?  The answer is only Mariah!  Killer vocals on this song.  I'm so impressed with this song.  The new album is her best ever in my opinion. 

    A.... G....

    @Andy Jacobs A+MEN times a million!

  68. E.... ....

    3:19 to 3:24 Reminds me the "My All" vibe !! Really love this song !!

    E.... ....

    EmzooH Not really...😅

  69. a.... b....

    Fly Away... butterfly! return to the 90's, so good!

    a.... b....

    I love that song.

  70. M.... l....

    REALLY love this song reminds me of Fly Away (butterfly reprise) from her 1997 butterfly album!

  71. C.... O....

    ok... so this is the 2nd best song on the album. love it!

    C.... O....

    This is my second favorite on the album ... after "The Art of Letting Go".  

  72. E.... ....

    Favorite song on the album, just a fun song!

  73. t.... ....

    If this song doesn't reach AT LEAST n°3, I will go crazy, this song is AWESOME!!! 

    t.... ....

    Unfortunately none of the songs off this album rose no higher than 15 (Beautiful 2013) and that's it.

    t.... ....

    keep dreaming... far from get a top 10 again...

    t.... ....

    @pablito l Oh I know...hopefully her next effort will get some airplay

  80. B.... ....

    Mariah's best song in YEARS.

  81. M.... S....

    Oh my, this is really nice. Maybe she should change her beats to this kind. Mariah you have  a great voice

  82. J.... F....

    Absolutely love the vibe that the sample of "Goin' Up In Smoke" by Eddie Kendricks gives this song.

  83. M.... W....

    Different from everything she's ever done!!! Fresh, mature, classy, sexy like my fav perfume <333

  84. d.... ....

    To some talented lambs out there, please make an instrumental of this song! I would love to sing this <3

  85. A.... J....

    I am totally loving the new album!  This track in particular is so HOT!!!  The more I listen to it the more I like it.  This is the best album Mariah has put out in years!  I like almost every song on the record. 

  86. S.... ....

    This song is so hypnotizing upon each listen! Gets better every time! Single material right here! She would surprise the industry with this as a single....

    S.... ....

    Couldn't agree more!  Awesome song! 

  87. E.... ....

    YO MAN GIVE THIS A LISTEN

    Eli G - Galaxy

  88. I.... A....

    OMG!! This song ♥ AMAZING!

  89. D.... C....

    Por qué esconde la voz?

  90. D.... G....

    Interesting and fresh!
    It draws you. Her 'new' voice sounds so cool.

  91. V.... V....

    love it!!

  92. S.... P....

    best song on the album.  Another DUD.  bummer.   She hasn't been the same since after Emotions came out.   She needs more songs like this!

    S.... P....

    Since Emotions? That's way too far back. She's made much better albums since then. However I do agree that she needs more songs like this.

    S.... P....

    Emotions? EMOTIONS? Lol she's had so many amazing tracks between 97-2005.

    S.... P....

    Emancipation of MiMi was one of her best!!!

    S.... P....

    LOL right? I was like HUH.

    S.... P....

    I don't like this song lol.

  93. A.... R....

    my favorite track in the album!

  94. L.... A....

    La Amooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!

  95. M.... G....

    love, love, love, the new album

    M.... G....

    You and me both Michael!  I have every album of hers since the beginning and I have to say that as a whole album, this one is my personal favorite.  My favorite single of hers is, "We Belong Together", but this is my favorite overall CD.  Wish it had the commercial success it deserved.  Crazy how Mariah used to sell like hotcakes and then she waned a bit but when she finally came around and delivered such a stellar album, no one buys it.  This record is awesome.  If radio would just play her songs, people would buy them.  "Meteorite" could totally be the song of the summer if it were given proper airplay. 

  96. J.... P....

    Sexiest track on the album!!! <3 I feel so sexy and so gay! <3 <3

  97. M.... H....

    strange voice!!! still fall in love with mariah Carey old ones
