This year marks a revival in music. Kicking it off, the acclaimed “Saltburn” film breathed new life into Sophie Ellis-Baxtor’s hit “Murder on the Dancefloor,” featuring a spicy nude dance scene with Barry Keoghan. This brought the classic to the Billboard charts for the first time, landing at number 53. Despite its 2001 release, it’s Sophie Ellis-Baxtor’s inaugural entry on the Billboard Hot 100.

Continuing the trend, the film “Anyone But You” hopped on the classics train, reviving Natasha Bedingfield’s 2004 hit “Unwritten.” The film sent the song climbing the charts again. Its sustained Spotify Global Top 50 presence could bring further milestones.

Daniel Bedingfield has returned to the spotlight years after his 2002 hit “If You’re Not the One.” He is Natasha Bedingfield’s brother. His mission? Releasing long-lost tracks from his vault, including one featuring none other than the diva herself, Mariah Carey.

Mariah Carey’s Unreleased-Music Vault

It’s true, Mariah Carey’s vault is legendary, filled with forgotten treasures waiting to be unveiled. Many of these, registered under her name and already listed here. However, unheard collaborations featuring her voice remain hidden in other artists’ archives.

Daniel recently disclosed that he collaborated with music icon Mariah Carey during the peak of his career. However, the track remained unreleased, stored away on his hard drives. Titled “Thousand Life Times,” this ballad promises to delight fans of both artists.

Expressing his decision to finally share the hit track, Daniel lamented, “It really burns a hole in my heart, just sitting there unreleased. “The fans would love it,” he said. In a Daily Star interview, he also described a new venture for testing public interest in unreleased tracks.

Reflecting on the abundance of overlooked music, Daniel emphasized, “There are hundreds and thousands of songs that are recorded and left on hard drives, hundreds of the best albums I have ever heard that record companies have just never released.” Determined to change this, he outlined his plan to create a system to release these unreleased gems, driven by artists’ and fans’ passion.

How H00ks Could Release the Collaboration

Daniel’s tech company, H00ks, emerged from this vision, aiming to empower artists to unveil their past recordings. Through this venture, he aims to drop the ballad and other hidden gems. His strategy shares short clips of unreleased recordings on social media. Fan reactions help measure each track’s potential.

With H00ks, Daniel hopes to connect artists, unreleased music, and eager fans. Therefore, hidden recordings could finally reach the public.

Mariah Carey’s Earlier UK Collaborations

Back in 1999/2000, Mariah Carey collaborated with Westlife on “Against All Odds,” venturing into Your Majesty’s territories. Speculation suggests she might have explored collaborations with other prominent British artists during that time or later. Regardless, the news is now out: another song exists, adding to Mariah’s extensive list of unreleased tracks scattered worldwide.

The question remains: who else holds unheard music from such a celebrated artist?
