I love her. Her songs are dj sincere and I can relate to the songs on so many levels. I wish her hair would be like how it was before like this picture
@Rell2525 wht do u mean mariah carey can't sing she is great and festive and amazing at wht she does,u are deff not a true fan of her's at all.if u where u will support all tht she does meaning her old song's & new one's instead of saying she can't sing,tht's not right at all im sorry but i have to say this who are u to judge mariah carey's new song's about if she can and cannot sing any more tht's wack u are totally wrong in so many level's i listen to her since 1998 & still supporting her
always be the "QUEEN".. Without her , music is empty, and emotionless.. even if i don't wanna cry, just cant help it if i listen to her.. truly moving lyrics and rhythm.. no one touches the MARIAH Legend..
i love this song. when u love someone and your praying for things to work out--- suddenly things turn out completly wrong. its heartbreaking. Sometimes u forget about the sweat things and passion that the 2 of u once shared. its sad but its real shit and we've all been thru some heartbreaking shit. So remember the people u love and keep on moving on. Be Blessed.
this was never Mariah. You all know that tommy made her sing these slow songs and not tell her race. He laid a good foundation, but just like when whitney came out, eveybody thought she was "mary poppins" they don't start showing their true colors until they get that fan base. Get it?
@kpaperchase yeah....Tommy may have been poisin for her self esteem but he was a miracle worker for her image and music!!!! Her artistry fell off when she left him.
@kpaperchase ummm, she wrote these songs. He was controlling and abusive, but these were her songs, save a few. it may not have been exactly what she wanted to record, but she did have input.
this is the mariah is use to like. But the monay has got to her head like it does to other stars. Now adays money makes the man. NOT the other way around
duh thats y i called her a show off dumb ass (by the way I can hit that note) . y yal b gettin so ass hurt like she's your mother or somethin calm down I love mariah.
damn...why i gotta be a DUMB ASS..LOL..mah bad hahaha i thought you said that shit because you hated her...im just a number one fan thats all...hahaha...mah bad...what i do hate is the NEW mariah.[MIMI] .who sounds like err one else 2day....hahaha...i miss the old mariah.....
calm down people, what I said b4 is true she culd have but she didnt..y cus shes mariah hahaha. dnt worry I didnt hurt your precious singers feelings y all the negative votes? sheeesh.
What I think separates Leona and Mariah in the early years is that Mariah had a very very distinct signature style. Her whistle notes flooooored people and it really caught their attention for a long time. It proved that she was packing something more that made her more than a great vocalist. I think Leona lacks that signature style.
As far as this little "who is better" battle, Mariah in her prime could only be rivaled by Whitney Houston. WHITNEY HOUSTON. Leona today is a great vocalist but some of her vocal nuances bug the crap out of me. I think Mariah displays a great deal more control in her vocals. She also has a better tone to it. It may not be as rich or full as Leona but I think that quality has allowed her to display her range in a much more effective way.
She was the epitome of vocal perfection in her prime.
"She was the epitome of vocal perfection in her prime""
What an amazing statement... However, I must disagree with the last three words: not because I am also an agreer that Mariah is still one of the very best vocalists right now, but above it all because what she was in her prime is just a part of everything she is right now. We are talking about one of the most talented and unique artists ever, probably the most skilled one...
And we'll just have to agree to disagree. =] I still enjoy Mariah's music very much, but as far as vocal prowess goes, she is past her prime. I find no fault in that though. I celebrate what once was and look forward to a newer, more contemporary sound.
I find it surprising why Whitney is brought into this as her prime can't rival Mariah as far as vocals are concerned. If you want a true vocal cat fight, one needs a time machine and transport Yma Sumac & Minnie Riperton (in their prime) to face off against MC in her prime and presto - a clash of the vocal titans!
leona doesnt have star appeal unlike mariah carey.. nowadays in this kind of situation where most music fans tend not to buy the c.d instead just download it on website for free an artist have to have that star appeal for her to make the fans swayed to buy her c,d legally and mariah has that..thats why mariah still sells millions... leona is just another good singer that sooner or late will be forgotten she not an iconic type of singer.. another mediocre artist.
Leona is a great vocalist no doubt. She might even outsing Mariah live these days, BUT Leona can't compete with Mariah during her prime. Her voice could FLOOR you. Mariah at her best is so much more superior to Leona at her best. That's why a 100 years from now, Mariah will still be considered one of the best vocalist ever.
leona sucks mariah carey sold lots of greatest hits songs i think if you put leona and mariah to a battle of singing mariah will have a 100% chance of winning while leona has a 1% sorry but you shouldn't even compared leona to mariah bc she will never reach where mariah at
I agree Kathy. Leona Lewis is not even close to the vocal range that Mariah Carey has. Leona and Simon Cowell wishes. In there dreams. She is a papular artist worldwide. Leona needs to hope and pray she will get that far, I doubt she will. Mariah is one of the best selling artists of all time. As far as how she dresses, that is up to her, many stars and entertainers dress in similar fashions. Go complain to the pricey designers that sell the artists these clothes.
I'm getting a kick out of folks saying Leona Lewis has more class then Mariah. Ya'll must be VERY young because when Mariah first came out she was ALOT like Leona. Mariah was fully dressed too. Her record comapny wouldn't let her dress sexy. That's why when Mariah got away from Tommy she went WILD. LOL. Just wait and see, Leona may be dressing classy now. But I guarantee the clothes will start coming off bit by bit as time goes on. And the videos will start getting sexier. Mark my words.
Your obviously not listening to Mariah then because Leona sounds nothing alike she has her own distinctive style and actually she is technically one of the best singers there is right now and she doesnt dress like Mariah at all sorry Leona has alot more class than Mariah ever will have dont get me wrong im a fan of Mariah in her prime time with songs like this and I will agree Mariah was was being the key word one of the all time greatest singers but Leona is Leona and Mariah is Mariah end off
no one comes close to her vocally when it comes to this song! Not even whitney,leona,Christina,Celine,beyonce,mary J, Arethe,Patti,Barbara, etc.!!!!!!
By the way you wrote I swear I understood that you were dissing Mariah instead of Leona. Sorry, I misunderstood. Now, you and me are on the very same side, though your a little more extreme: Leona has not enough qualities to be on the same list of the best voices ever, at least so far. She's talented and gifted but lacks personality, self and unique signature, she's just a beginner and his singing technique has too much tricks.
the reason that leona annoys me so much (besides her whiney voice) is that she tries to sound like mariah, dress like mariah,she sang big hits by mariah on xfactor, and whitney's songs too, she's just a coat tail rider in my opinion
This is on eof the best songs ever made by her. She really needs to get back to the way she used to sing. I mean that she is still a magnificent singer, but back then she really let her gift shine.
I love her. Her songs are dj sincere and I can relate to the songs on so many levels. I wish her hair would be like how it was before like this picture
