  • Lagrimas!!

  • chills chills chills and goosebumps is all i can saw and feel

  • NOW YOU KNOW WHY MARIAH CAN SING IN ANY ERA

  • Amazing, Perfection, from the heart, mind and soul... GOD Number 1 .. Love u MAriah Carey, Royal King Louis

  • I cry when I hear this... "I've loved a lot...been burned a lot...in my life and times..." She hits close to home.

  • 2:23 yes, oprah, mime for ur life :)

  • I love this performance for so many reasons. In 2002 Mariah was vulnerable, suffering immense problems: sales were poor, there was still incessant negative publicity about the infamous breakdown and her estranged father was dying of cancer. This song, although commercially irrelevant, is one of her most important. It reaffirms the importance of faith and dependence on God during tough times. Confessional, humbling, emotive and spiritual. A powerful message that still resonates 9 years later.

  • i've probably watched this performance like 800 times and it still gives me chills <3 <3 i love her!

  • love it!

  • I FOLLOW U MARIAH!!! nad i love u too

  • love 3:22

  • Lol Oprah pretending like she knows the words hahaha

  • Lord Jesus thank you for letting me hear this beautiful woman sing! :D

    So inspiring

  • 4:04 i have no words....

  • Gave me chill bumps...my LORD!!!

    

  • As much as I HATE to admit it, she does lipsync sometimes; I can easily tell when she does so because of her facial expressions. Also, the formation of her mouth doesn't match with how the words are being sang - when she hits her upper register, she somehow seems to be smiling - BUT this is most definitely live. Watch this again observantly. This is the queen in action.

  • @phatjoe026 Go watch her sing Hark the Herald Angels Sing in 1992, totally live yet she sounds at times like she is NOT. The fact you open your mouth DOES NOT equal producing a sound, you know.

  • @initochanchan Yeah nei. That's what I meant -_- & I was speaking in general, fyi. Cha'mu'hit sa siempre' bai balas hao, demmet.

  • @initochanchan Perfect then. God bless.

  • i thought this was a true and natural Mariah performance

  • i love this woman,,,,she is one of the best

  • I can't believe ... Mariah is .... AMAZING!

  • One of my most favorite Mariah's song.

  • 3.37 - 3.38 her voice almost fails , clearly live performances. Studio version doesn´t have this stop.

  • Yea seriously...this is definitely live. Ya'll just haters.

  • Obrigada Senhor....só vc Jesus Cristo é a nossa graça salvadora...

  • OH GOD. AMAZING.

  • OMG does that voice even exist in this music industry so perfectly sung

  • I luv how Mariah went from singing soft and calm too start belting..she sounds so amazing like always...no one can top that voice of Mariah

  • @TheLyricKidd Old Whitney could. I still like Mariah though.

  • this is absolutely live...anyway why do you have to complain if this is live or lip,it will not make mariah carey less a person or even an exceptional singer...we encounter and face sometimes our downfall but what important is you have gracefully overcome the obstacles of your life...

  • This is the story of my life! Thanks God for your saving grace!!!! ;)

  • One of my favourite performances EVER!

    She nailed it :)

  • 2:22, what on Earth is Oprah doing!? Typical pretentious and attention-seeking American.

  • @HildaMcFumble Shut up.

  • @HildaMcFumble Lol looks like she was enjoying the music

  • this song is so underrated.

    It should be in her #1 catalogue.

    Such a powerful song. Great lyrics. Great vocals.

    One of my favourites!

  • perfect my god!!!!1

  • It's funny how people think this is lip synced because she just sounds that good! I know this isn't lipped because this is one of my favorite songs ever and i can really hear the difference!

  • @Raoulirshan You really have to check your ears, the climax is the studio version, point blank. The rest can be live.

  • @theoneandonly2503 The climax has "hope when I" in whistle.

  • @rekupp And? The climax is identical in this live to the studio version.On the other NBA live,she just edited that part and sang it live(?)in whistle,but the rest is also identical,with the exact same raspy moments at the exact same time.On the Soul Train awards, she edited the very beginning adding a whistle scale on "give me PEACE" and on pulls me "through", the rest is also identical(tone, phrasing, raspy moments, power, resonance). If she can fool her fans, great for her,but not me.

  • @theoneandonly2503 she´s always sung identically to studio versions, mainly the highest parts, because honestly, there isn´t many to do besides singing it straight.

  • Haters gonna hate cuz the Queen is betta than their idols

  • People need to stop complaining about Mariah "lip sync", why do you care so much? if she wants to, she can, whats the problem?. We all know mariah can sing live as well as in a studio and they both sound amazing. And a technique of singing live is where the microphone is; meaning when your using your chest at times it has to be a distance from your mouth. No matter how much you hate on mariah she will still be earning her money, be even more famous and more gracious. Give it a rest.

  • @CarbieChloe agreed!!!

  • Mariah is one of a few singers who can sing live and wow people

  • thats MARIAH my idol..

  • this is LIVE..period!

  • why do people always hate on this woman? She has a God given talent that so few people will ever have with the range of her voice just deal with it the woman can sing period!

  • i agree withh @1marisolmc this is completely LiVE !!!  && if it wasnt livee which it is , she still recored the song and SOUNDED GREAT !

  • i agree withh @1marisolmc this is completely LiVE !!! 

  • wow..

  • you know mariah's lipping when

    1. her mic is like a mile from her face

    2. she isn't showing any emotion, effort, or struggle

    3. her voice sounds suspiciously polished during the difficult parts compared to the rest of the song

    was any of that in this performance? NO! get over the whistle playing during the "HOPE WHEN I" part and get over the "suspicious" similarity to the recorded version. she's the one who recorded it so idk what people are so skeptical about

  • @im18dammit100 i think it's the people behind the illuminati who were keep on pushing her down..

  • @niggahega yeah lol you're probably right. i'd love to hear rihanna or lady gaga sing this song without bursting into flames XD

  • This is definitely live, but this is dubbed.

    Listen at 3:29-3:31. Besides "Hope when I", there was a whistle in it.

  • @argievivero It can't be dubbed cause this was aired in live, that whistle clearly was a backing track

  • @mcdamian17 Oh, sorry. :) Thanks for explaining.

  • @argievivero :)

  • 4:03- shivers down my spine- her high notes are celestial.

  • وااااااااااااااااااااااااااااا­اااااااااااااااااااااااااااااا­اااو

  • And this ladies and gentlemen....is TRUE talent

  • MARIAH CAREY BITCHES; MARIAH CAREY!!!! ;)

  • It is the finest example of someone who reached the top without denying their God. God bless you, Mariah

  • this is a beautiful song

  • SHE IS A REAL ANGEL OF LIGHT

  • Mariah is so pretty in this performance and her voice i have no words to describe it ! For me no one else can sing in these so high notes like Mariah do . when her voice is ok , she flys like a bird ; it's incredible ! She's marvelous and pretty ! I love her and i love that performance , great !

  • 1 person is not saved!

  • Mariah will always be my favourite artist just because she gets slammed all the time and manages to deal with it like a lady. let them talk down. she will always be the best. LUV MCC

  • Sua tradução foi excelente! Parabéns. Mariah is unique!

  • SO GOOOOOD 

  • she was born to sing.. love her whistling around :)

  • this is absolutly live. don't know what's the thing with the comments about she singin in playback sometimes, because she isn't the only one doing it. lots of artists do it but, for some reason MCC is a the favourite hating pet of everybody

  • @mariahCareyPortugal yeah it's definitely live. just because she has her whistle playing in the background doesn't automatically mean it's lipped. and people say it sounds suspiciously similar to the studio version. maybe so but mariah's the one who recorded it so why is it impossible for her to be able to do it the same way live?

  • Mariah carey is getting into her own song! That's why i love her (:

    You're the best mariah-carey! We love you! From the lambs!

  • OF COURSE SHE SINGS LIVE!!!!!!!

    whoever thinks otherwise doesn t really pay much attention!!

  • Mariah is anointed these words are so pure and thats why she is on the top!

  • Great LIVE performance!

  • wao wao wao wao

  • First of all: You can hear the breathing (to prepare for the next phrase or whatever). Secondly the scratchiness of the voice is an indication that that is not an album version playing over. Thirdly at 3:48 you can clearly tell she was singing that part because on the album the tone at that point is a LITERAL whistle note and not a middle voice high note.

  • amazing singer,,she's one of a kind!

  • mc's really struggling here to hit her notes and she did it.in my opinion she sung this live 100 %

    thats according to me

  • @ANGELAGUMILET The sound produced is not struggling or pushing at all. It's clearly well-placed and resonantly powerful. MC usually uses gestures and hand-tic things for whatever she sings and it'll be completely a mess thing when she is so into the song she is performing. Her struggle is generally shown when she stands still to maintain focus on each notes. IMO, if she moves while performing, she is quite comfortable to sing.

  • @ANGELAGUMILET

    That's a fact that she sang it 100% live... Stop searching her! It's fucking Mariah Carey, if you have forgotten for a minute ...!!!

  • @ANGELAGUMILET according to me too.. and every sane person watching this.

  • mariah sung this one well.i love it from her album

    same to i wish u knew,i only wanted and cant let go

  • Oh My God ... Now I'm sure that Mariah isn't a human... She's an angel ! Thank God for this beautiful gift :-)

  • I normally hate to say that she's lip synching but if you listening at 3:28 at the "Giving me hope" part there is a whistle while she belts the part. Here you can hear the whistle while she belts and in other performances that's not there (or she did the whistle instead). Still an amazing song and performance! <3

  • @SyrianSquirrel

    Mmmm I feel like she's just belting over the backing whistle. If she were lipping it would have just been the whistle with her "belting." But you can actually hear both.

  • HAHA! I love Oprah at 2:42! She's freaking hilarious singing along with the song!

  • I love the charmbracelt cd...my favorite...

    Bad she does not sing any of those songs of that cd on he 2 latest tour....

  • 1 person has no heart or ear...

  • this is 100% live.. u can tell... her voice is on point, rested.. the first highnote is effortless...

  • i dont care about the beltings... the first parts before the belting are amazing.. especially the highnotes in the bgnning.. love her forever!!

  • oprah is so cute

  • i don't know how she can do it. what the fuck!!! she has the best voice ever...go mimi!!!

  • incredible powerful voice!!!!!!

  • i like her outfit.

  • Mariah is perect..my inspiration

    ....amo mariah pra sempre...DEus eh com Ela sempre eu sei...

  • lol... this was clearly NOT lipped. It just shows her ridiculously amazing voice. The end of this song gives me chills. Incredible.

  • OPRAH TOTALLY LOVE MUSIC EVERY PERFORMERS SING IN HER SHOW SHE SING ALSO

  • WOW!!

  • You All Know Mariah Sang This Live STOP HATING!!!!

  • @1marisolmc Damn right!

  • I love this performance. Oprah has me rollin..lmao check her out on 3:25 I love her hand gestures.

  • Best singer of our time. Hands Down... Too bad she lost her voice after marrying what's his face.

  • @LilMamii06 stop being so judgmental

  • @jrr1234567890 I'm not being judgmental. It's obvious that her voice isn't as powerful as it used to be...

  • Just amazing

  • 3:21 I loooove the transition!!!

  • 100% Live

    100% AMAZING!

  • on this performance, i can say that mariah sang this song 100% live,...

  • *chills* WoW . If mariah did a album of all her christian & inspiring songs . I would buy it !!! In a heartbeat !!!

  • @Simone2true4U So would I, and I don't even believe in a god! Her religious songs are beautiful!

  • @Simone2true4 i would too. it would be a truly inspirational album

  • @Harold434 I don't think this is lipped at all. The end alone is different from the CD version. Not to mention when Mariah lips a song it's usually only her and not the full band and backup singers. Also she doesn't move around much, tone check (finger in the ear) or throw her arms around violently.

  • @horseluvrva ok..somehow it's still her voice..let's just make Mariah #1 for us..i'll never change my love for her..im her #1 fan..:)..forgive me for what i've said...god bless..:)

  • A voz dela é simplesmente perfeita!! Adoro-a :)

  • she is singing live i was there

  • the amazing song (lovemimi)

  • she fake this performance..i repeat this video and compare to her studio version..its likely the same..though im a big fan of mc,but still i love you mimi..4give me for those who are also a big fan of hers..but she still #1 4 us..go MC lovers..!!

  • @Harold434 she didn't fake this performance!!!

    At this stage in her career, her voice was still flawless!

    You must be blind to think it's lipped!

  • @Harold434 oprah winfery does not allow lipsynching on her show. and if you listening closely, you can hear her live breathing.

  • @MrJNO123 of course you can hear her breathing because the song is breathy..but still i love MC..we don'y have to argue with that..we are both fan..but now,she can't hit her high notes..i know you know that too...so we have to accept that fact..

  • @Harold434 lol. yeah. her voice isnt the same. shes human.

  • @Harold434 her voice was really consistant during charmbracelet era, so you can't realy tell when she's lipping it

  • @Jared95C hmm..your quite right..:)

  • @Harold434 lol! It was so very hard to tell when she was lip syncing because she was always on her game.

  • god..im a really really big fan of mimi but i compare this performance to her studio version its likely the same..she really fake this performance..:(..but still she's so amazing and mimi's my saving grace..

  • this ,,almost lost ist all'' is just POWER !

  • GOD BLESS

    I ♥ u mariah

    and i needed that today

  • i love how oprah was singing along

  • that G5 in 3:53 was solid...man, very few singers can belt G5 and up that sounds very solid...

  • WOW

  • my idol.... mariahhh i love you

  • omg diva!!! i love her voice

  • This is one her best live performance her voice is just beautiful here.

  • where in this earth you could still find another MC...she is definitely one of the superstars in her generation...

  • MOTHER EFFING VOICE RANGE AND THE QUALITY IS INCOMPARABLE -- NO ONE CAN SING LIKE THIS - MAYBE THE NOTES CAN BE REACHED BY OTHER SINGERS BUT NOT THE QUALITY IS NOT THE SAME -----AMAZING

  • amazing!!!! left me speechless....

  • FLAWLESS, FLAWLESS, FLAWLESS PERFORMANCE! Who Else But Mimi. God This Is Why I Love Her So Much!

  • omg itts amaaaazing god bless you my diva...

  • She tore it up GO MARIAH

  • Goosebumps, she is the most amazing singer in the whole world!

    <3!

  • mariah come to singapore quick, F1 is next month!!! :D

  • Oh my dayzzzzz no111111111 in dis world can touch mariah i dont care who they. You were born with that gift from god and you have not abused that voice. I love you mariah. Praise be to god. Your voice is untouchable to none. You are 40 years old and you still have your voice. You can still touch hearts. Her voice oh god sometimes i wish i had half of her voice its so fantastic

  • I know you see Melonie Daniels in background :) Yesss Mariah you better sing !

  • amazing voice from the divine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!gift from the god's

  • It would be heaven for her to perform this again. I dont know if she would, on a good day i have no doubt she could sing it, but i dont think she has the confidence in her voice like she used to, and that also effects vocals

    either way, her live performances of this are some of the best she has ever done.

    B.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l

  • I love this one, I like it when MC gets Fancy - Soul Train awards or Mick Jordon Tribuye but she sounds great keeping it simple too - Love this - so strong

  • Wow, incredible. She can really sing. God has given her a gift! An awesome gift that is....

  • ohhh god ... you blessed her so much with this voice .. is just unbelieveble how she can sing

  • if its mimed still its her voice!!! in the studio she has rested a lot more than after doing an album..coz theres a lot of interviews,shows and many extra curicular activities or somthing to promote her album.. my god!! she sleeps 2 hours in a day working and working.. regine? she needs to have a full vocal rest to save her career!!!

  • live

  • 100 % live!!!!!! wow!!!!!

  • dang this woman! (*wideeyed*)

  • shinning shimmering beautiful

  • I love this song so much!!!

  • this is the best album of mariah's entire career. its sad that its underrated!!! :(

  • love her so much

  • I LOVE oprah's hurr!!!

  • i love mariah so much particurlarly her live performances she is the greatest... i know her live performances quite well and to be honest i think that the whole end climax of this song was all totally mimed... if you notice there are no close up camera shots of her.... she turns to the side rather then at the audience probably cause she knows they wont be able to hear her and she's always just a fraction more 'posey' when she's miming.... thoughts????

  • @kiki86no1 It's 100% live, esp when there's a huge choir behind, unless you are telling me the whole choir is lipsynching, which is technically impossible and stupid.

  • i thinkkshe still has the voice but she is tired and i can understand that !but she is singing wel these days !look at iwtkwli live is just amazing

  • MC D GREATEST!LOVE HER

  • Mariah Carey is a blessing! I love you sooooo much Mariah! God bless you!!!

  • Beautiful and brilliant performance!

  • 1:54 when she says the word " I " is something she can only do.

  • i cant believe they compare MC to that rip-off regine. regine is just another diva-wannabe like charice.

  • @nothingtowrite92 Charice has some nice qualities to her voice she also i think as a vocalist should be appriciated but i agree...not compared to mariah, just because she can use whistle and isnt that bad, doesnt make her mariah standard...and regine..ugh, i dont understand her

  • @nothingtowrite92 i agree

  • @nothingtowrite92 agreed

  • @nothingtowrite92

    i love mariah but charice is definitely not a diva wanna be! She can outsing sooo many singers with her vocal power, yes Mariah is still the best ^-^ but charice considering that she is still young and growing has not reached her vocal peak who knows what she can do in a few years time!

  • she has the whistle and falsetto still. but her chest voice? DESTROYED.

  • @spiderlegs1987 ??WOW, don't agree at all.
