Exactly!...the constant singing night after night is not good for ANYONE'S voice. That is why I feel like Mariah should have taken a break....but oh well...I still love her voice....
Wow, this was a bad Mariah Carey vocal day back when her voice was flawless. Dude this is a rare finding lolz. But even though it's bad vocally (compared to her norm all those years ago) she's still impeccable.
Just because shes raspy doesnt mean it was bad for her she hits every note stays on pitch every riff is perfect i personally love the rasp its raw and soulful
because....if you listen to her lyrics as each album progresses, you'll see that she endured a lot in the marriage situation she was in... then the emancipation of mimi....then E=MC2 tells you where her heart & mind are at in that respect - how it changed her, for the good & for the bad. She sings her HEART out & tells us her stories.... :) I know what you're saying about how she's changed. I guess everyone grows & changes in their own time & in their own way - some just do it publicly. :)
her voice has a natural rasp depending on the temperature she said the room was cold during this performance which made her rasp more audible but i personally love the raspiness
Now that's just vocally perfect almost , i bet she could stretch more than 5 octaves back then , i doubt wether she can now ,4 and a half octaves is still ok .. we need THIS mariah back cos the one now is full of herself , plastic and fake. Why did she turn into this woman? She was so real before and naturally beautiful
@brunonlinexd I guess she changed because she had nothing else to do. As she used to say back then, she HAD a voice so there was no need for showing skin, having a scandalous lifestyle, etc., because people liked her because of her enormous voice. She lost her voice so... she put in the big boobs, the arrogant attitude, the fake makeup, high heels, the whole whore image that can sell when you have nothing else to offer. if she still had a voice we'd have the sweet 40y.o., MC around... Shame
@baretreemty She changed because the mimi now you see is the real her. She was forced to maintain a fake sweet clean image by Tommy Mottola, and after years of abuse by him (which she has to keep within herself), she finally left him and with that, all the hurt and tension she kept inside exploded. Tommy made her famous but at the same time, destroyed her. That's why her music are always about love, pain and hurt.
@BBQJester that is part of her Side Effects song, isn't it? I really enjoy just for the joy of that when someone talks the real MC. Like Eminem. Like Tommy is going to do in maybe part of a chapter on his book. It's nice that after 14 years he's finally talking a bit of the so much MC has said against him. Thalía seems quite happy with him. I don't buy all the shit MC says about him. As he said sudden success can change a person's perception of reality. That was a FU MC but in a gentleman's way
I agree! I WAS ONCE A CRAZED FANATIC FOR THIS WOMAN'S TALENT! But these days, a lot of the time I just can't stand her!!! Concentrating on how she looks (fixing her hair in the monitor) as opposed to the vocal performance at hand!
mariah has become a business and an icon. It's not really about the performances for her anymore it's not really necessary. I think the audiences look at the visual much more anyway. She knows what she's doing :) it's all part of the industry i'm sure
There are many queens, female legends: Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, Edith Piaf, Tina Turner, Nina Simone, Barbra Streisand, Aretha Franklin, Cher, Janis Joplin, Joan Baez, Diana Ross, Roberta Flack, Donna Summer, Gloria Gaynor, Patti Smith, Bonnie Tyler, Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, Whitney Houston... definetly, MARIAH CAREY has become a legend, part of music history, one of the greatest singers and songwriters of our time, she rocked the 90's with her tunes
the full interview is on youtube, she says the studio was cold and thats part of the reason why she was somewhat hoarse
