I Want to Know What Love Is chords by Mariah Carey

"I Want To Know What Love Is" was covered by American singer Mariah Carey and released as the second single from her twelfth studio album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel (2009). The single, produced by Carey, C. "Tricky" Stewart and James "Big Jim" Wright, was sent to European radio stations on August 28 and was released in the United States for digital download September 15, 2009. In Brazil, the song stayed at #1 for a record 27 weeks! One of the reasons for the song's radio success was its frequent inclusion in a popular soap opera, "Viver a Vida". According to Crowley Broadcast Analysis, Carey's version has broken the record for longest Brazilian Hot 100 Airplay Chart run at 27 consecutive weeks. The song peaked on the U.S. Billboard Adult Contemporary Tracks chart at #10, bringing Carey's total number of Top Ten hits on that chart to 20, one short of Celine Dion's record. She has since surpassed this and is now tied with Celine Dion after her single Oh Santa! reached number one in 2010. However, on the U.S. Hot 100, it peaked at #60. On the UK Singles Chart, the song debuted at #19 on the week ending November 29, becoming her highest debuting and peaking song since 2008's "Touch My Body", which peaked at #5. The song debuted at #6 in France, selling 1,910 physical CDs in its first week, and 39,720 copies of all formats there as of late 2009 and it became the best charting version of this song there. It also reached #3 in Japan. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
