Mariah Carey in Spanish

I’m trying to learn Spanish again. I’ve took a semester’s worth of Spanish in university but never had the opportunity to really practice it, hence I’ve forgotten. I think your site is a wonderful place to pick up tips and pointers. So I thank you for sharing your learning process.
