Mariah Carey and Miguel followed up on their "05.06.13" date teaser video with the release of their first collaboration for "Beautiful," featured on Mimi's forthcoming album.

The highly anticipated collaboration fails to exceed expectations of the traditional up-beat "Summer hit," nevetheless, the melodies and tones highlights the angelic voices of both Mariah and Miguel, dispelling any doubt in Mariah's vocal abilities. While the lyrics, "You're beautiful, and I can't pretend that that doesn't mean a thing to me," are nice and simple, it is the vocal ability of both Grammy Award winning artists that draws listeners in, as oppose melodramatic music.

This soft laid back track is not what you expect when you compare Mimi an Miguel's various collaborations with other artists. On "Beautiful" it's almost as though the "American Idol" judge and "Adorn" singer's teaming up falls short of a playlist repeat worthy song, as it falls shy of boredom. However, true vocal connoisseurs and die hard fans can appreciate a song like this, as auto-tune and pseudo-singers continue to emerge on a daily basis.

Mimi got her fans hype in April with the release of the 30-second teaser video for "Beautiful," but does the song live up to their expectations?

Fans Tweeted mixed reactions to the song today:
