Music Box is the third studio album by American singer Mariah Carey.

It was released by Columbia Records on August 31, 1993, in North America.

The album comprises ballads primarily co-written by Carey and Walter Afanasieff, with whom she had previously worked on Emotions (1991), and a few urban dance tracks.

During the course of the album's development, Carey wanted to broaden her audience, choosing a more pop/R&B oriented sound.

During this time frame, she experimented with different musical instruments, leading the album's sound away from her more contemporary previous two efforts.

Two unused tracks from the album sessions were released as B-sides: "Do You Think of Me" and "Everything Fades Away".
