Mariah Carey - Greatest Hits(#ad)
“One Sweet Day” is a song by singer, songwriter and actress Mariah Carey together with Boyz II Men an RandB group.
This is one artist who has seen a string of commercially successful albums to her favor, and it solidified her as Columbia Record’s highest-selling act.
According to some rumors, Mariah Carey has recently undergone a weightloss surgery known as gastric sleeve surgery. The surgery is done to shrink the size of one’s stomach meaning they eat less.
The Grammy Award winner underwent the surgery about six weeks ago, and she showed her slimmer figure at her foot and handprint ceremony at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.
According to multiple sources, Mariah decided to go for the surgery after she started feeling insecure about her weight.
The source says that her weight made her upset on countless times. She went to the extent of having tags cut out of her clothes so she can be unaware of her size.
“One Sweet Day” is the second song from her fifth studio album Daydream and the song was released on 14th November 1995.
The song was written and produced by Walter Afanasieff and Mariah. The lyrics of the song are about the death of a loved one (her sister who died of HIV related infection) and how they took their presence for granted.
The song is about specific people in the lives of Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men. The song spent sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100 in the US, and it became the longest-running number one song on the chart history.
She performed the song with Boyz II Men at the 38th Grammy Awards ceremony on February 25, 1996.
The music video for the song which has more than 99 million views on YouTube, was recorded in February 1995, but she later said that she was content, that a real music video was not recorded fearing no video would capture the song’s message.

Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
Now it's too late to hold you
'Cause you've flown away
So far away
Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive
Alive
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Darling I never showed you
Assumed you'd always be there
I, I took your presence for granted
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Although the sun will never shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day
Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
