Reflections (Care Enough)

"Reflections (Care Enough)" is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey for her first soundtrack and eighth studio album Glitter (2001).

Because of contractual obligations, Sony Music Entertainment, Carey's then-former record label and the international distributor of the Glitter soundtrack, released a CD single for the song in Japan only.

[6] Bowling Green Daily News editor Chuck Campbell wrote that Mariah dishes out the "anonymous and unobjectionable ballad".

[7] David Browne of Entertainment Weekly wrote a mixed review: "She laments the end of a relationship several times, most believably on Reflections (Care Enough) -- typical Ma-riah schlock sung with crushed-flower loneliness".

[8] Slant Magazine's Sal Cinquemani disagreed: "Reflections (Care Enough)" tells the tale of an estranged mother figure and its sparse arrangement recalls the simple beauty of Carey's early balladry.

[9] In a review for the album in The Free Lance–Star, a writer outed the song's first verse "A displeased little girl / Wept years in silence / And whispers wishes you'd materialize / She pressed on night and day / To keep on living / And tried so many ways / To keep her soul alive" as his favorite lyric from Glitter, and described it as an "emotional and heart-wrenching ballad".
