@bunnybeaner Definitely not true! Some males have flexible enough vocal chords to be able to access the head register and furthermore, the whistle register. Adam Lopez is a great example.
With much respect and admiration to the Jackson 5's rendition (by the way, RIP Michael Jackson), I feel Mariah and Trey covered "I'll be There" better.
no version of ill be there that mariah sings today will top this performance! this was truly a magical moment. i miss the 90's!!! her voice sounds Flawless! i Love her!
SimuLord, I think her only surgery is a breast enlargement, but not a ridiculous one. She might use a little botox in the forehead, too, and that always makes for an odd look. The real difference comes from being 15 or 20 pounds heavier now. But she still looks very fit, so I think the main thing you're noticing is the aging process.
Same thing that happened to you or me or anyone since 1992, she got older. Maybe she had surgery to appease people like you; I don't know, I don't care, she looks just fine to me still.
nothing to do with how fucked her voice is Today... Look at Aretha, she is old as dirt and signs almost the same way she did 30-35 yrs ago. Even Celine Dion .... Wtf Mariah did idk but talent was not the issue.
"Had" 5 octave range That is def past tense... Still like her music tho still doing her thing like everyother singer out there but her prime is long gone.
People criticizing her for the MJ memorial also need to remember the occasion... she said afterward that she was fighting to keep it together for the entire performance.
Good god, leave the Woman alone, at this moment in time 1992 Mariah was 22 i think, she was at the peak of her powers as a vocalist, her voice was never going to stay this good for her entire career, i'm a massive Paul "pretty boy" McCartney fan from 1964 to 1982 he had the best male vocalist voice i've ever heard i reckon,(my opinion obviously) now when he sings it's cringe worthy, i'm afraid. Remember, guys we ALL get older, and i'm afraid less good at certain things, and singing is 1 of them
obviously, you guys, over years your voice change. notice how trey's voice isn't as strong as it was then. it's called getting older. and imagine the stress her voice has been under after years and years of touring, having to hit high notes night after night. lol are you people serious?? lets see any of you do that for 20 years and sound as good as you did when you first started. even at her weakest she sounds better than most people.
This is so amazing. She was such a better singer back here in 92. She's still a great singer of course but these days live she often strains to hit the high notes of her classic songs. Still, it almost becomes a moot point when you think of how good her voice is anyway. I think most people would definitely rather have her voice past it's prime than their own voice at any point in time lol.
It's weird, she still tries to sing in that quiet voice like how she sings this song, but it just sounds weak now. I don't think anyone has the courage to tell her that she needs vocal lessons.
Just look at the way she sang this... so effortless yet powerful.
But at the MJ Memorial Service, it was "very full of effort" yet sounded so badly. Anyway she apologized afterwards. I accept her apology of course. :)
Trey Lorenz does the background vocals of Alicia Keys, you see him almost everytime Alicia Keys performs. He's good! :)
