London, July 28 - Singer-actress Mariah Carey took advice from fans on social networking website Twitter for her new album.

The 'Fantasy' singer decided to take on board requests from her followers, who posted messages on her page when she was recording her new album 'Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel', reports contactmusic.com.

'I worked with Big Jim Wright, who works with Sounds of Blackness a lot, and so there's live-feeling songs on the album. A lot of my fans since I've been twittering, a lot of the fans are like, 'We want some live-sounding stuff,' so you have to find that middle ground,' Carey said.
