[MariposaRedimida]

She seems so light, like she's not even tyin..

[RaciouS91]

I can't reach G7 whistle. It's too high. :P

[hyca14417]

love her, but still wonder if she could still hit those very high notes any longer ?

[jaypaidincash]

@hyca14417 the last time she did it was in 2010. Im sure she most likely still can.

[hyca14417]

keep believing. both of us ^^

[jaypaidincash]

@hyca14417 lol! really! I say that because that note wouldn't really be hard for her to reach..whistle register is almost like breathing to her when shes rested lmao

[CLjuc87]

Love the high notes!!! Up to an F6!! AMAZING!!! Go Mariah!!

[janethqvideos]

she used to sound so good. she doesn't sound like this at all anymore. she blew her voice out

[petervu]

@janethqvideos Agree but I don't take this seriously, cuz nobody can stay the same afer 20 years

[rekupp]

She has always been this way. Look at her, she is totally checking herself out lol!

[EnglishAB1]

I LOVE HER WHISTLE NOTES.

[votrongnhaniloworld]

guiness high note G#7 ai 4:06

[herr1991]

@votrongnhaniloworld no this is a f#7 .... g#7 is in the presentation of mtv vma's 1991

[RaciouS91]

@herr1991 nope. this is G7. VMA is G#7.

[asongforxx456]

The whistle notes she hits are unreal

I wish she did the parts at the end in the original song,she always does it live like that

[TheCris1621]

How old is this

[HeresTheCircus]

@TheCris1621 20 years.

[aangcarey]

The Best Of "Emotions" Performance ever........

I Love This Performance

[hmhmhblack]

うますぎる・・・

[Adrytl]

@hmhmhblack

umasugiru?

[hmhmhblack]

@Adrytl  mariah is too nice…

[ikamayz]

shes one in a million

[icemage94]

speechless...her vocal range is truely gifted...

[51Mariah]

the high notes arent live if u play this video and Mariah Carey - Emotions live @ MTV vma's 1991 together at the right time there exactlt the same !!!!

[FanaticoManiatico]

@51Mariah WTF are you high??

[iiAmitx3]

@51Mariah lmao! it's not even true!

[wizk323]

@51Mariah if you were a singer or knew any type of tones or notes you would see that there is a huge difference in the mtv vma 1991 performance of the high notes in that one compared to this when,their not identical so she couldnt have used it for this performance. not saying that this one wasnt recorded just that its not the same recording.(i doubt it is tho)

[initochanchan]

@wizk323 To even remotely entertain the idea of Mariah Carey lipping in the 90s is just CRAZY!! Only Milli Vanilli lipped in the 90s but of ALL PEOPLE to think the voice of voices lipped early on in her career is a wild, wild dream. DID NOT Occur.

[cljens]

@51Mariah You've got to be kidding..the MTV VMA and this performance are not even close to each other (the high notes in particular are quite different in the two performances).

[kimmi589]

look at mariah's face while singing this she looks like very relax and shes happy while now she can not sing like that...

[iiAmitx3]

and people said she can't sing live back then!

[josued09]

These whistles are so clean, how can she go that high

[etxhioVEVO]

she is hot

[purpleteardrops1]

4:03 - 4:09

How the HELL can she do that? Unbelievable!!!

[leocinthkyle]

@purpleteardrops1 HOW THE HELL INDEED. MAYBE SHE STUCK SOME INSTRUMENT DOWN HER THROAT...

[Videodude1231]

@purpleteardrops1 lol isnt she great when she does the whistle its so peaceful lol.. I can almost do it but it end up cracknig in the end

[Forcomputerclass2]

last notes... my gosh...

[RiPcOrDz83]

@sameshitdifday You Think?? Honestly I Really Don't Think That This The Best Look For Her...I Think That Butterfly Was A Great Era For Her Lookwise, She was So Pretty! For Me Daydream And Up Is Where She look's The Best! Even Today She Look's Very Beautiful!

[RiPcOrDz83]

@sameshitdifday Why Would You You Want Her To Do Something That Make's Her Unhappy....She Didnt Like To Have Her Hair Like That All The Time...

[lerysalcher]

Ela assovia pela boca!!!!!!!

[samuel1abarza]

OMG the dancers XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[kitttykat248]

@samuel1abarza LOL xD

[narutohappy]

my favorite is when she sez

when you lookin into my eyeeesss you make me feel soooooooooo HIGGGGGHHH high in the sky!!! then she goes OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH!!!!

[henpaul17]

guys..mariah can sing this sing uptil now..but accept the fact that there is difference between 90's and now.. evry one of us has a changes of vocal ranges.. you realy know that.. so dont hate MC..love her, because she is the best..!!

[BailieTV]

I love this song !! :)

My favorite part : 2:54 to 2:58

I wish i could sing like that !

[jaypaidincash]

its so funny when people say "THIS WAS THE REAL MARIAH CAREY" it actually was far from real..shes THE SAME CHICK...and back then she was ACTUALLY UNHAPPY and sort of rforced to sound perfect ALMOST ALL THE TIME...witch is why most of her performances were flawless..now adays shes happy, doing WHAT SHE WANTS, and i guess she doesnt care about perfect live performances. her voice changed but her range overall stayed..

[DanyelHawkes]

@jaypaidincash well actually the unhappiness and people controlling her career came a year after this :) but ur point is true!

[Cyberdrill]

@jaypaidincash I can't agree with you more! And when she sounded perfect last time, people would say 'amazing' or other praises; but when she sounds perfect now, people would say 'lip-sync'

[canttouchthis421]

@jaypaidincash same way with OLD mary j. vs. new mary j.  the old one has SLAMING music, but was depressed and suicidal...new mary j...healthy happy, and her music isn't as hot...but this is the real mary j...and this is the real mariah.....takes courage to be yourself in such a judgmental dreadful world

[RLviddy]

One of the best live presentations I've ever seen.

[emywils]

Esta cantante es las mejores de todas dejara un legado muy marcado en la historia, dios la bendiga y su timbre de voz perdure por siempre...

[MariahCareyAngel1]

What a Powerful Voice!!

[rohaishah]

1991 geez i was JUST born HAHAHAH I LOVE HER

[qwertyuiopz123]

she cant sing like this anymore

[etanielyehuda]

@qwertyuiopz123 I don't know if there are any singers that sings the same at the ages of 21 and 40. Especially for Popular singers, their singing schedules are so demanding that their voices (vocal chords) deteriorate prematurely.

[chatrabbita]

@qwertyuiopz123 sadly ;(

[ccarolitaa]

O. M. G. - 4:02-4.09

[Myanuru]

@ccarolitaa Whoaaaaa, it gave me chills! I never get chills. I'm in awe. Out of this world!

[101Talksense]

if you ever doubt she is THE BEST singer just watch this vid all day!

[Fernandaproduction12]

1:14 wow!!!

[lilkc13]

my fav part is from 3:50 to when the vid finishes :]

[killingkat100]

Looove this vid

[jamiearies]

mariah is 21 here,...amazing what she had achieved even by then, love this performance, its flawless and mc looks as though she is comfatable and having fun.

[SuperMichaelGabriel]

This was the real mariah carey

[ILOVEDAVIDCAVAZOS]

Master Mariah you should be an angel on Earth!!!!!!!!!!!

[chasenyou]

I just want to point out that in the Earlier years Mariah was wearing some skimpy outfits. I wasnt shocked when she came out with the Honey video. Cause a lot of the early outfits were tight and short. It was only during the Music Box era when whe became ore packaged. aww the good ole days.

[mimimariajudith]

Mariah? the BEST & Unique in her league: no way to compare from a global point of view :)

[pameclarkson]

what a voice has mariah...she's awesome!

[TiniTaylor]

4:08 She's like a human bird that's chirping...if that makes sense. Lol!

[maldobostero12]

who the fuck is lady gaga??! leona levis?! hahaha what a joke

no one can be compared to mariah carey !

i think that the 4 best female singers are

Mariah carey, Beyonce, Whitney Houston and Christina aguilera

THey are making crapy music now but no one can say that they didnt had a fantastic voice back in time!!

[TiniTaylor]

@maldobostero12 Actually, Leona Lewis is one of the best singers these days...not better than Mariah or Whitney ofcourse. I used to underestimate her until I bought her spirit album, then I realized how gifted she was. Lady Gaga on the other hand, is overrated.

[pameclarkson]

@maldobostero12 i think u missed kelly clarkson :D

[deonzax]

@pameclarkson i totally agree with you...

[carl09052410051]

@maldobostero12 iclude celine dion,pati labelle,aretha franklin and lara fabian

[MrBarBarozz]

@maldobostero12 Mariah sings/writes/composes/produces and has a 5 Octave Voice... she is musical Genuis and i agree Whitney and Beyonce are really good, but i would just change just Christina with Aretha..... because Christina screams to much and most time, shes over do it, but just my opinion and Lady GaGa or Leona sucks hard compared to them.

[jaypaidincash]

@maldobostero12 umm christina is not in the same league as mariah or whitney...

[josued09]

@maldobostero12 you forgot kelly clarkson, she is one of the best female singers too

[xxShemoXpreshnSxx]

The last noise was like the sound sneakers make on gym floors...

Hence why I love her.

[TheChristinalaz]

wow i like this video even the song emotions god bless you.

[ishragaibrahim]

OMG THE LASTT BITT!!

[Claudi135]

The end is sooo amazing!! :)

[potatosalad8]

amazing whistle!

4:06 shes saying yeah suck my whistle bitches ya'll  cant do it like this!

[pwrsurg35]

is this her 1st time performing the song live? The audience doesnt seem to know it... And that 2octave jump!! WHAT!!!!

[DanielAvilaAGT]

@pwrsurg35

wat second octave jump?

where?

[mcdamian17]

@DanielAvilaAGT At 4:08 she hit a F#7, 2 octaves higher than the F#5 she hit at 3:51

[asnallar]

@pwrsurg35 second. the song debuted at MTV VMAs in 1991.

[drunkdivamariahcarey]

nobody can take mariahs place as no.1 in chart except to her BFF Beyonce.

[gloomywillow]

if i try to whistle, i'll kill myself, she's damn good!

[SERTYG]

Give it up for the best voice in music, everybody.

[drunkdivamariahcarey]

a billion dollar legs!

[gloomywillow]

@drunkdivamariahcarey i know! they should be insured!

[paranaguaboy]

incroyable

[ShiannePhillips]

This is amazing. I just posted my cover of this :)

[HotTamale111]

WOW! WOW! WOW! WOW! HOW?! its amazing!!!!

[cookiegurl103]

i would like to know: HOW THE HECK DOES SHE DO THAT

[marsattacksu]

@cookiegurl103... Everyone has the ability of using the whistle register with practice. if u wanna learn start with musical scales, going higher n higher. if u do it often enough u'll get there. im a male n i can do it, also i've taught 2 others to do it (they were my only students, I'm only young!!!!!)

[cookiegurl103]

@marsattacksu O.O holy cow dude!!!! i'm in choir and i'm a really good singer, and i'm a suprano but i'll NEVAR get that high. good luck with ur future students...

[drunkdivamariahcarey]

ONE WORD>>> AMAZING

[asekun022]

WOW !!

[Bremariah692]

She has the best live performances ever!

[drunkdivamariahcarey]

higher than the heavens aboob.

[swim4life]

PERFECTION!

[roch202020]

Her vocals are exceptional on this performance!

[exploreryen]

@roch202020 she was at her peak. This is my favorite one.

[luckky15]

i wish she would take a Good look at how she used to be...

[promisuous88]

this is not a good performance.. yes she has amazing high notes.. but she's off pitch sometimes and struggles. Her voice is everywhere.. why do ppl complaine now? She had bad days back in the day too. I know you ppl just love those high notes, but she needed some ear pieces on that song. Because I don't think she can hear her own voice here

[Danosai]

I think she was still in shock in 91 a lot of her performances were like this good.... but kinda everywhere. Now she is JUST singing notes...

[nexosen]

This is like her best performance of it though? Besides the one from the Daydream Tour. She did ad lib some bits you know.

[deinemudda1100]

einfach genial...

[Moshid88]

Its crazy, I rember watching this at my aunts house when I was 5, I've been a fan ever since. lol

[bfhfsuruyw]

ppl say she lost her voice and lost power, that may be true, but one thing that separates her from everybody is her versatility! She can do a whistle 1 second, belt, 1 second, whisper, 1 second, and she can still control her voice! even 2day!

[jaypaidincash]

she hasnt lost her voice...if she lost her voice she wouldnt still have the same range..its her tone thats changed a bit..but on her best days she WOWS audiences lol

[frapez157]

unbelievable...!!!!!!

[dalevhentetres]

i am not comparing my range to mariah because no one can replace her..

ok..

don't like xtina, she oversang her own songs.

[8isa6]

There is only one Mariah Carey! Leona, christina is so far away from Mariah!!!

[blured]

@8isa6 yeah they will never be like mariah and they will never be....

[Monella07]

@8isa6i agree with you.. i dont know why they're always compare mariah with the others ..she;s one and only..

[Borat2borat]

Does she hold a record for highest notes?

[namasayaialahtujuh]

ahm nope...Gerogia Brown holds the record...she hit G10...well, Mariah's whistles are still better than anybody else

[Puertoricanlegacy]

Notice her popping whistle at 4:06. Only Mariah Carey. It's like god gave her the gift of singing plus a little extra.

[jaypaidincash]

im pretty sure she can still hit that g7 note..

[Anjelgurl828]

Leona Lewis hits high LONG notes.

Mariah hits high, long,falsettos, AND whistles.

Only true blessed people can whistle.

Quit comparing those opposites, please!

Compare Leona to Whitney Houston because thats the only person you can compare her to.

[Dreamlzs]

She is born to sing like a godess !

[Number1MariahCarey]

Great Perfomance i will always be your #1fan...my ran is A2 to e#7

[torchwoodlurve]

6 octaves

[jaypaidincash]

too bad thats not your actual SINGING RANGE you can fully sing in.

[dalevhentetres]

uRe wrong..

i can sing them note by note..

using different vocal techniques..

[jaypaidincash]

i just think its verry weird when ppl come on youtube talking about how many octaves they have just to obviously compare it to mariahs..you probably dont sound verry good doing it.

[glamalana]

Yeah, but that doesnt mean you can all sing them using your throat voice..

[crave1980]

funny how someone who knows what the lowest and highest note they can hit and yet know nothing about octive scales...

haha. lies.

[dalevhentetres]

sorry, in the internet there are many ways to solve for the number of octaves you have but i worry they are just haux..

check your spelling first..

....merry christmas........

[athousandstrats]

SHe jumps two octaves at once.... fucking insane.

[ManolitoMystiq]

@athousandstrats:

If you have control over your whistle register, like I do, it's actually easier to do than to go just one octave higher. At least, that's from my own experience, but I'm a male, so it might be different for women.

[nexosen]

You're male and have a whistle register? Wow that's really cool, whistle registers are so rare in males

[ManolitoMystiq]

@nexosen: I'm not so sure if it's rare. My account has an example of my whistle voice, so you could check it out.

[savionahmad]

yes dear very good! but can you control it! i.e. (sing words in it or do runs...?)

[denaelshabba]

@athousandstrats i know right!

[Ameryparishilton]

@athousandstrats wheres this at?

[athousandstrats]

@Ameryparishilton Every time she says "in-SIIIIIIIDE" before the chorus.

[nsinger24]

I bet if she or if sombody else made songs like this people would buy it no matter if it sounds dated. People want to hear good music.

[loveMichael5809]

This is when she was so cute and innocent : )

It's sad to see what happened to her.

[nijo87]

Now she seems an east-europe slut!!!!

[loveMichael5809]

I know : (It's so sad

[jakemdanduan]

what's happened to her? it was early 90's then...people are not liberated as for today! she's just only going with flow of modern music and style! every person i think evolves themselves..

[CheesySanchez]

I LOVE classic Mariah. Now she's all like obsessed with me. She even lying that she's sexing me.

[diamonddonut]

i've always been mariah's live performances, but when i heard whitney huston's live performance of "how will i know at the british grammy" and "grammy awards" i knew by then why she has been named as the artist of the live and the voice. sorry mariah now you come my next live performance.

[jakemdanduan]

now look who performs better nowadays! she was a new artists back then and whitney has been used to singing live then!

[diamonddonut]

nowdays unfortunately none. although whitney performs live with no lipsync and mariah WITH lipsync mostly. but sorry none of them sings good live now. i think celine is good now live.

[edgardo111691]

Actually Leona Lewis, is going to be a big name in the future.

[fishonegg]

@edgardo111691

yh but never as big as mariah

[Princesslingling911]

@fishonegg

Ya no one can top Mariah Carey, even though Leona Lewis is very good! Lol

[jaypaidincash]

too bad even when leona is a big name in the fute.. SHE WONT REPLACE MARIAH LMAO so you can get that out of your head..

[The80slover4512]

Damn!!! She's sings so freakin high!!!!! Wow! I love her so much!!!!!

[lexcody44]

Ahhhhhhhh real singing instead of those other singers.

Mariah Carey was soo amazing in the past:D I mean can any disney channel star sing like that, NO!!

I love you Mariah Carey:D

Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey are the greatest singers ever!!!

[linbainu]

the best

[xblakeslady]

omg, the last part is so amazing

[TotallyBabs]

The old mariah ROCKS :)
