Carey, Mariah - Make It Look Good Lyrics
You make me wanna say
Yeah, yeah
Oh boy, you make me say
Something about you makes every girl hot
I just want a taste of what you got
But my mama always told me not to
Play with those players who play you til there's no more
Game left to be played
Look at what you got me going through
Can't help myself because
You make it look good (make it look good)
Say you make it look good (make it look gooder than them other fools)
Acting like I know you notice me
Fantasize about the way you lick your lips
Fingertips on my hips as we dip
Oh, boy, you make it look good (make it look gooder than them other fools)
Baby baby sometimes, I need you
But I feel so shy
Simply can't leave you
'Cause them other girls are gonna try
Guess their mama never told them not to
Play with those players who play you til there's no more
Game left to be played
Look at what you got me going through
Can't help myself because
You make it look good (make it look good)
Said you make it look good (make it look gooder than them other fools)
Around you when I ain't supposed to be
Acting like I know you notice me
Fantasize about the way you lick your lips
Fingertips on my hips as we dip
Oh, boy, you make it look good (make it look gooder than them other fools)
Ooh boy
And it makes every girl high
Oh boy, you make me say
Ooh, ooh boy, you
My mama said don't play with them players
No, no
Look at what you got me going through
Fantasize about the way you lick your lips
Oh, it's gooder than them other boys
Yes, it is

Carey, Mariah Make It Look Good Comments
I sometimes revisit this song just for the G5s at 1:57 and 2:10
Exactly!
rich production
Why am I imagining BRUNO MARS on this?? Mmmmmmmmm
I love all of her music she is a icon
Perfection. From the orchestra in the beginning to the harmonica being played by Stevie Wonder.
Melhor música do cd ❤
I'm sorry but MIAMTEC will FOREVER be her most criminally slept-on masterpiece in my eyes. I adore the entire thing start to finish! This song, You Don't Know What to Do, Beautiful, Dedicated, Faded, Camouflage... just wow. This should be regarded alongside Butterfly, Daydream, and TEOM as one of her great albums.
ZAC ELEGY this album was a fucking masterpiece my favorite from her
#SevieWonder
This should've been a single 😭
Fantastic song
THIS Song is so 70's i love it reminds me of my Dads songs he listened to from the Shirelles
This song is so underrated...ugh!
Kfc radio got me here its been stuck in my head for two days
This used to always play in Charlotte Russe
sweethartia really? I’ve never heard it in one
Eddy6159 ohhh where I live in Maryland
Got that alisha keys vibe
That high note sexy Asf 😭💯💯
Make that hoe look good 2 times 💯💯💯😂😂😂
I'm still listing to this song in 2018😜
Ahhhhh stevie wonder on the harmonica it would be dope if Mariah worked with stevie wonder again
Daya from Australia
That G5 gives me life.
The best modern day song Mariah put out
Malik Davis it's definitely one of them
I definitely agree
And now her album came out
Heard this from charlotte rousse and fell in love ... wow her earlier work is amazing !!!
Idk why they would even compare Ariana to Mariah because Mariah is just a goddess... her voice is ... amazing !! Wow!
This should've been a single! With full promo, it could've EASILY been a Top 40 hit. The music video could've been black and white, at night during the 1920's or something in Paris with Mariah all dolled up and looking retro (kind of like the vibe Carrie Underwood has on the cover of her Greatest Hits CD.) With a song this big, and video for it with a really good concept, not only could she have easily had another hit, she could've picked up her first VMA. Also, if this song would've been a single, there's no doubt in my mind that it would've been nominated for a Grammy, or even win one.
I've never heard this before 😱😭😍
Amazing song, gets my heart racing!!!!
I love the harmonica part played throughout by Stevie Wonder.
Aaaah adoro essa música gente, especialmente em
Around you when I ain't supposed to be
Acting like I know you notice me
Fantasize about the way you lick your lips
Fingertips on my hips as we dip
One of her best album cuts
BEST song on The Elusive Chanteuse by far!! Why she never made it into a single I'll never know.
I love this whole album this is my shit
Everybody was so hype on Beyonce's album this album got swept under the rug. it's a shame! It always happens!
this is how I feel bout this one particular guy he makes everything look good 😚💋💖💓💞💘
LOVE THIS SONG!!!!
would have loved this as a single. i love the old school vibe definitely its a wrap part 1 and the sample is very ojays let me make love to you check it out guys tell me if im trippin. love u mariah
loooooooooooooooooved it
I really like all the songs she did!
Muito da hora essa música
This song is sampled but its still pretty good
Sampled from what?
+John Doe Let me make love to you- The O'Jays
The best song on the album! It should of been a single, it could of been her next #1 hit!
dis joint jams 🔥🔥🔥
This is seriously my favorite album of all time.
also mine
this album never had it's chance, definitely some of Mariah's best work! this song shoulda been a single! if anything bc the sound is so fresh, this should have been the album's lead single!!
I agree,on the original track list this was the first song on the album.
my favorite song on the album. first time I heard it I instantly thought: single. I had a vision of mariah in a polka dot bikini with ruffled shoulders, running through the sheets drying on the clotheslines at one of her Hamptons summer homes. Silhouettes, laughter, and wind. Instant hit, I thought. Make it happen, Mimi & JD :(
You make it look good (make it look good)
Say you make it look good (make it look gooder than them other fools)
Around you when I ain't supposed to be
Acting like I know you notice me
Fantasize about the way you lick your lips
Fingertips on my hips as we dip
Oh, boy you make it look good (make it look gooder than them other fools)
Bitch, I don't care if they're saying she using autotune or used her wealth to built a robot that copies the best of her voice, but she sang the hell out of this song. It's literally one of the best pop songs of the 21st century in my opinion. Everything after 1:56 is golden. Just perfect from top to bottom.
One of the best songs she's ever recorded.
tangled55 amen!!
cute little ditty :D
Voice, talent,song bird ,:-P
i can't understand why "You're mine eternal" was released as a single...that's my most 'skipped' song in her album. I would rather listen to TAOLG than YME. i'm not sure if it's totally mariah's decision but she should have atleast listened to her fans coz we want the best for her. she should've made a poll on her twitter/fb/ or any social media for her next singles. i know 18 #1's is already amazing but mariah is not mariah without having a #1. she'll be always known to snatch #1's hopefully she'll get her #19 this year!
Most people don't realize who this song is about. It's about a rapper named Playalitical he's a very well respected independent rapper/producer and he owns the record company Illuminated Entertainment Group. He's not exactly mainstream but a lot of mainstream rappers know who he is and have a lot of respect for this dude because he's real and he ran Denver for a long time and pretty much put it on the map. She clearly says his name at the beginning with the harmonica "Playalitical" and the song is all about a player so she obviously has an intense crush on him. The beat is off the chain I give this song a 10 out of 10 it knocks in my system!
one of my favourites songs ever, just needs promocion, great album. go mimi
adorei <3 <3
This album proved Mariah Carey is still relevant and still has her voice and talent she didn't promote this album because of her impending divorce and that's understandable and she still sold 100,000 copies with no promo except a video released 4 months earlier and one tv interview in a year that only one album went platinum
@J Mac We now know it was intentional. She wasn't feeling supported by IDJ so she basically did not promote this album she did what she was required to do contractually and that was it and I don't blame her
@Blamb 1985 God I still feel bad about this album. This was just so BIG but then, it plummeted to the center of the earth. Still can't stop listening to Faded up to these days. That was a number 1 hit! If only things were right.
@J Mac YES. Either Faded or Dedicated were going to be #1
damn!! i love faded so much! this album was great! no promotion+divorce+media=flop! ;(
so many good song in this album. she would score another 2 #1 in this album...
If it would have got promoted - and the right singles were promoted, this could have been as big as teom - mariahs label have promoted the wrong songs on every album since charmbracelet although tbh i dont think that album couldve been saved by singles because of the bad press from glitter, the year before. But E=MC2 couldve had way better single choices, same with Memoirs, MCII & this -
E=MC2 could've sold like 20m - literally there are so many possible hits on that album
Migrate ft. T-Pain - No.1 about 10-15 wks
For The Record - No.1 about 5-7 wks
Touch My Body - No.1 about 6-8 wks
I'm That Chick - Top 5
Memoirs could've sold like 10m - not as good as E=MC2 but still a few hits poss
Obsessed - No.1 about 4-5 wks (Carry on from E=MC2)
H.A.T.E.U. - Top 5
Standing O - Top 10
I Want To Know What Love Is - Top 20
Up Out My Face ft. Nicki Minaj - No.1 about 2-4 wks
MCIIYou could've sold like 4-6m
Oh Santa! - Christmas No.1
AIWFCIY ft. Justin Bieber - Top 20
When Christmas Comes ft. John Legend - Top 10
Christmas Time Is In The Air Again - Top 5-10
MIAM could've sold like 14-16m - 3rd comeback
You Don't Know What To Do ft. Wale - No.1 about 4-7 wks
Make It Look Good - No.1 about 8-12 wks
#Beautiful ft. Miguel - No.1 about 4-6 wks
Faded - Top 4-6
Thirsty - Top 10
Meteorite - Top 20
The Art Of Letting Go - No.1 about 10-15 wks
This couldve happened tho
I love Mariah,this makes like u are in heaven!
Awesome background belting notes at 1:57 and at 2:10. Love the whistle at 3:03 too.
So if this hasn't been released as a single, and therefore hasn't gotten much exposure, then how did Time Magazine name it best song of 2014? Based on what criteria? I think this whole album is great. So different from anything else she's done so far. It's def a great road-trip CD where u can just play it from beginning to end. All the songs are catchy, but this one especially!
I Loooove This Song . 😍
This is such a car ride jam.
mine too.
that violin tho
Love this song! If this were a single it would of been #1 on the Hot Billboard! Wish more people could experience this song!
this is her best right now.
MARIAH PLEASE!!!! MAKE THIS LOOK GOOD ON THE CHARTS! RELEASE THIS AS YOUR NEXT SINGLE!! <3
Look at what you got me going through, can't help myself because youuuuuuuu make it look good!!! #LYRICS This song is everything.
They didn't choose good singles!!! It should've been Beautiful, then You Don't Know What To Do, then Make It Look Good/Dedicated. Def Jam effed up!
LOL I love Meteorite too, but it isn't #1 potential to me
I agree with Brian I feel like it could be a #1 :D
I agree with your selection of singles. I thought Beautiful, You Don't Know What To Do/Dedicated (since she did it on GMA) and then Make It Look Good. I didn't get why You're Mine was a single. The song is a snoozer for many people.
Star4u1201 yess! should've been heavily promoted!! this song is lifeee
Faded? I love that Song😍😍
there will always be people who say negative about singers. I like Mariah, she has beatiful songs and songs I don' t like, however, this is a wonderful song!!!!!!!!
WE NEED THIS AS A SINGLE! C'MON MARIAH!!!!!!
este album é simplesmente incrivel, cmo o deixaram 'morrer', tantas musicas maravilhosas q poderiam ser lançadas cmo single...One more try, Heavenly, Thirsty... album maravilhoso
Sim, lançados oficialmente como singles foram apenas Beautiful e Mine Eternal
And a video! :-)
amazing
Loooove this song... Hands down best on the whole album!
Awesome song! What the hell is wrong with people these days? How come they're not buying this album?!? It is my favorite Mariah CD of all of hers.....and I do have everyone of them. Mariah is HOT on this record. Incredible album and most everyone is missing out on it. Buy this album! You will love it!
@***** I was the same way. I got her new album and wasn't feeling it. But I did listen to it multiple time, not going to lie I'm digging it now.maybe it takes time?
@***** Yeah, I think the more you get to hear it the more you get to feel them. I think some of the songs have good lyrics.
EVERYBODY WANT CLASSIC MARIAH ...REAL ARTIST CHANGE ON A DAILY THATS THE WHOLE POINT OF BEING ARTISTIC...........THIS SONG IS DOPE!!!!!
Finally a new Stevie Wonder production...!
This album does nt sound like a classic mariah seem like label trying to drop her damn shame
Blasphemy. This IS classic Mariah.
Girl bye.You don't know what the hell you talking about,lol.
sounds kinda FANTASIA-ISH :)
If anything Fantasia's music sounds like her ok, don't put Fantasia's name in a sentence with Mariah, same goes those not put Fantasia's name in the same sentence with Celine, Whitney or Toni ok, THANK YOU! :)
what is that :\
Great music
single material. why hasnt this been released again? best song on the album, followed closely by dedicated.
Agreed 10000%.
i agree this is such a great song time magazine called it the best of 2014 so far. !!
Dan tan, that's exactly what I said
tangled55 is
wow. really good sonically and even better when you listen to the lyrics.
her voice sounds amazing!!!
Estoy confundido con este ultimio album de Mariah Carey pero la amo...!
No se casi no me gustan las canciones aunque canta muy bien en cada una de ellas no me transmiten mucho.... pero que es una diva es una diva
+Exxon Hodgson estoy de acuerdo contigo, sinceramente sólo me kedo con Eternal y #Beautiful pero sinceramente las otras rolas, no se, no son algo que me apasione volver a escuchar, creo q debería regresar a lo q hacía antes, r&b más fresco, mas potente, sin embargo no demerito q sea por mucho la cantante más grande del pop y del r&b
Pienso q beautiful es lindamuy fresca .... Eternal solo latransicion de voz de pecho a voz de silbido me gusto.... El cover de one more try hubiera sido un exito si hubiera sido single, you dont know what to do es la mejor pieza para mi.
Te invito a ver mi Canal! Gracias
que hay de camouflage
I love this song also !!! Its so hard to sing though lol
I Love this song <3 Mariah Carey You are the Best EVER!!!! I Love you <3 L4L!!! Hot Great Song...Next Single Plezzzz :))))))
I love this song
Different from everything she's ever done!!!! One of the best songs of 2014 according to TIME magazine and me <3333
And me, honey ❤️
And me dahhling!
