Mariah Carey is left feeling “very upset” after she admits that the wrong version of her single took to Facebook yesterday (November 14) to clear up the accident, explaining: “A mistake was made by a brand new sound engineer whose only task was to press the space bar and upload the song to Facebook.”

She followed: “Clearly, I was focused on answering your questions during the Q&A. There was no reason for me to wonder if the final mix we were listening to in that room together was different than what you were listening to!”

The 43-year-old singer then opened up a Q&A with fans, saying: “I want you to hear it like you're hearing it for the first time with me, and I will answer any questions that you have, pertaining to the song.”

She added: “There's no doubt in my mind that this sounds like a self absorbed diva on a "woe-is-me" tangent about a couple of ad libs or some other triviality, but the reality is this is me, focusing solely on the record, wanting you to hear it and experience it the right way.”

The single is taken from Mariah’s upcoming album The Art of Letting Go set for release in 2014.
