If you've ever closed your eyes, clicked your heels and wished for more Mariah Carey, then you're in luck, because your musical prayers have been answered.

Nick Cannon's other half has released a new single titled "Almost Home," which is the lead tune off of the soundtrack for Disney's Oz the Great and Powerful.

The up-tempo track features Carey's signature powerhouse vocals and an electro-pop beat. The American Idol judge belts out inspirational lyrics on the movie's musical anthem, perfectly paying homage to Dorothy and the classic tale. 

Produced by Norwegian duo Stargate, "Almost Home" is the mother of two's first single since 2012's "Triumphant," which veered from Carey's pop roots thanks to appearances by Rick Ross and Meek Mill on the track. 

Mariah will reportedly release a music video March 8 when Oz the Great and Powerful hits theaters.
