mariah carey

[songofpraise88]

um..she was all over the place and her runs were uncohesive.

[happyperson123456]

@songofpraise88 Um no...that's a lie. lol



[Aproxy2]

The best performance I have ever scene. I wish it was longer... or wish that she did actual full covers of these songs. Sweet!! Brings tears to my eyes. If only her voice was as good as it was back then.

[baretreemty]

it was one of her latest performances in which she tried to pull a song when her voice was really gone by those days. It was right after she finished her 98 tour I guess it was in that little period after the Australia leg and before the Hawaii one... At least she tried but even Patti sang that song way much better. And the one who's sing that song closer to the original with a beautiful and clear powerful voice is Leona Lewis

[quents]

@baretreemty ll is a mariah copycat who cannot compare to the melismatic genius of the original.

[miimiisomiimii]

more than gorgeous =) <3<3<3<3<3<3

[Katie19711]

pattie labelle is a class act,, her and mc are so very close

[kanazef]

best cover in the world..but no one can cover MC song more cool again.. ! i love her voice when part 1:05..she has much voice... :) ! luv u MC

[Puikideo]

The Low note she handled.. is really hard to sing

Truly talented and gifted to be a singer.

How can this be.. mariah could handle it so amazingly!

[DivasForeverChannel]

Awesome Song & Performance!!!

[trentnjones]

If it's one thing Mariah knows how to do is a cover song. Makes me excited to hear I Wanna Know What Love is!

[aod2k9]

drooling in anticipation!!! :)

[trentnjones]

The vocal run at 1:50 is a perfect example of why I love Mariah Carey; raw and passionate yet controlled and fluid. If she could sound like this in her upcoming performances, I would be more than happy.

[aod2k9]

So true. She uses the melisma technique so wisely and perfectly.

[icecreamshoes13]

i love dis song and mariah but this is someone elses song the black women that they kept on putin the cam on.o well lol

[HurtsSoBad]

Thats Pattie Labelle. I love this performance.

[IvyDiva]

THE ONE AND ONLY MARIAH CAREY! <3

[Stephymamii2u4eva]

wow.. this is one of my favriote performances ive ever seen her do... this is ahmazing.. completly pure voice amazing.

[lafrank03]

love dis performance... :)

[funster15]

she did an amazing job here.

[hotpeach9]

This is just wonderful.Mariah sings with all her heart and soul.She performed "If Only You Knew" by Patti LaBelle truly great.Two beautiful and remarkable women under one roof.Awesome.

[pebblesmc88]

sounds like a lulalby

[matthew1mc]

OMG amazing! Just fell in love with Mariah all over again! I've never seen or even heard of this performance before! Was it at VH1 Divas Live? Does anyone know?

[trentnjones]

This was at a tribute television special in honor of Patti Labelle in 1997. It aired on Fox.

[trentnjones]

I love her voice in this performance. Everyone makes a big deal for her upper chest but her low to mid range is the best. That rasp is the reason I like Mariah; it's raw, soulful and powerful. I hope that on the next album we get to hear more like this because she uses it on Right To Dream and it is getting rave reviews across the board.

[elielrocha7]

Essa Mulher é a the best da Música Internacional!! sou uma fã incondicional dela!!

Deus abençoe essa voz minha querida!!!!

ASS: DYLIAN

[mcdamian17]

wow. that melisma (1.51) was out of this world!!!

[vprowess]

love the raspy voice.. this is when she started having hard time singing.. but she ain't nothing ,, shes still the best and this is live!!!

love you maraih number 1!!!!!!!!!!!

[FreaKoko]

1:51 - 1:54 , best run in the music history.

[Kainosielu]

I agree. It sounds great.

[AAngelventuraa]

i will always love you Mariah carey

[flyingshaneo]

GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME......

[WLADIMARSA]

Que Bella..!!!! I love you Mariah

[scv1824]

this is just amazing. one of her best.

[25thehotness]

Man that girl gave me chills her voice is so thick and full of emotion she has one of the worlds best voices, talk about her and how she dresses and who she marries but u cant take that from her its just ah gift from god, she dont even know how she sings like that, and most cant and thoes and who can dont have her fame and respect man theres only one Mariah.

[25thehotness]

Some of the people there were acting ah littel strange towards her but she song the hell out that song.

[mariahtelevision]

What's the name of that song???

[marikitna]

"If Only You Knew" and "Over the Rainbow"

[wakadiva]

mariah carey is so ver incomparable . i love mariah .

[H0neyBF1y]

AMAZING!

[OKzs]

Beautiful. Patti was impressed!

[chiwochiwon]

amazin. Mariah i love so much

[dreamlover55]

who can make patti cries??? MARIAH CAREY

[DanielAvilaAGT]

patti labell is mariahs farry-godmother, or how ever thats called

[Devoted2Mariah]

One of my favorites of Mariah, GET IT BITCH!

[Vitaclear1]

Ella es increible, cuando escuche esta cancion casi caigo al piso de extasis. La adoro. No habra nunca otra artista que me llena mas que ella sera hasta el dia que muera.

[extraUMPH]

woah this is ammmmaaazing.

[johncalixtro]

what's the name of these song????

[genius3495]

if only you knew and somewhere over the rainbow both sung by patti labelle this was part of a tribute patti

[thatchickmimi]

thankz!!!

[teddy37300]

If only you knew, it's Patti Labelle's song.

[thatchickmimi]

thankzz!!!!!

[mlambguy2513]

I LOVE this performance. Mariah really knows how to deliver a song. OMG, she brought tears to my eyes.

[pokevircof]

grandiosa la adoro es una gran diva

siempre perfecta

[pinkwit69]

i'd say it's PERFECT!!! almost cried.. beautiful and meaningful song.. so emotional.. luv u mimi.

[iccfloors]

She is amazing!!!!! And that was tribute show for Patti. So that is why you see her standing only. She was singing Patti's songs for Patti and not really the audience. and if you look closely you can see people really being moved by this proformance.

[vprowess]

wow look at those pipol!!! a great performance was shown to them by a great and soulful singer!!! hello she deserves a standing ovation!!!!!she was great!!

[rumbutter]

I agree,mariah carey is still the best till the end of time...and foreverrrrr.....her voice makes me fly like a bird to the sky...

[adrian64130]

When Mariah goes down to her super deep low notes and then goes to super high notes you would think her voice would cracked but it doesnt. That's amazing she truely is the best vocalist ever.

[geseel]

WOW!! jaw dropper, she's so great. outstanding performance and yes i agree she deserved a standing ovation but obviously those peps thought they were too good.

[ciloan]

jesssssssssss thats mariah she is the only who let me cry with her voice

[maya1222]

(From Mariah Around The World DVD)"When I 1st wrote this song, it meant a lot to me but when I sing it now, it has a whole new meaning ... becoz I have to look inside myself this year and find the strength to get through a lot of things so I wanna dedicate this to all my fans: thank you for believing in me and don't ever forget to believe in yourself ... and this song is called Hero."

[mlambguy2513]

This song isn't called "Hero". It was a tribut to Patti Labelle.

[honeybogs]

yes i agree, a standing ovation is definitely missing here!! she deserves it.. show sum appreciation and respect!!!

[sueila]

she should have an standing ovation.

Amazing!!!

[gummybee23]

it's amazing how well she sings from her lowest note then shift to a very high note then low then high and sounds very beautiful...

[danysussa]

P E R F E C T.

[prisioner1990]

OMG this has to be one of the best female performances ever!!!!!!!!!

[gatitot]

q bella y q registro es la mejor señores

[chiwochiwon]

la mejor cantante de los ultimos tiempos por la fuck! i love mariah!!!! foreveeeeeeeeer

[chrisbrownfan108]

she is a great singer

[gabannaboy]

Mariah,como me gustaria q grabaras esas canciones, hacen palpitar mi corazon en estos dias que estoy tan deprimido y me hacen tener fe y esperanza.

[darinnn]

u shouldwritetthatthesongsnmeiss­omewhereover therainbowwithmariahcarey,itse­asierforeveryone

[edipoh]

fantástica, ela é divina!!!

a voz dela tem o poder de arrepiar cada parte do meu corpo!

mariah is diva

[Silviahouser]

Es una de las apariciones de ella q mas me ha gustado y borda el some where over the rainbow!

[linardp3]

Nice scaling...low high low high...great rendition!

[tillygg]

What song is this?

[princesfamiliar]

it's a medley of a Patti Labelle song "if only you knew" plus a Patti standard "Over the Rainbow"

[tillygg]

I see. Thanks.

[tillygg]

What song is this?

[linardp3]

certified diVa~ she's shinning despite of the few flaws that she went through not so long ago!

[juanifunky]

i love her voice in this performance, and she is beautiful here.

[flantiutube]

if only she still had that voice. and plz, don't give me that crap that she still does.

[MAGIC07]

She does this was like 5 years ago

[benbossy1]

It was 1997-1998 ^^

[Danizudo]

Look dahhhling, you should go to her next tour

[mjbrad305]

she does, dumb ass!

[flantiutube]

I don't get it. I've always been DIEfan. Still am. but how can you honestly say she could still pull this off vocally? That some fans are in denial is so annoying. She isn't perfect (anymore).

[AzKkMcFaN]

If you haven't seen her live recently than you don't know, she's still got that voice that made her famous in the first place. But, now she uses her voice in a more mature way

[dreamlover55]

so get out from here

[joshxjosh]

This is truely an emotional performance !!!

She doesnt need to hit a high note, thats enough to show her unique voice !!!

so powerful ! she never outdo other singers but actually she can with her high note!!

MC u rock!!!

[kishabfly]

WOw....There's so much emotions in this 2:33 mins song... Amazing...Just amazing...

[norwaygirl07]

Du you know what the first song i called?

[YOUknowMAY]

if only you knew or i wish you knew lol

[rican82]

i dont understand how this performance didnt get a standing ovation...

[MAGIC07]

Me neither..........so Im going to think outside the box...maybe everybody was in wheel chairs

[roxyr004]

Amazing performance as always!

[mightybearcub]

This has become my new all time favorite MC performance!

[peachwalls]

downright amazing. in my eyes this was mariah at her peak. she's just so incredibly beautiful, assured & soulful here.

[Ueberbacker]

A voz dela não estava na melhor condição mas mesmo assim ela estava maravilhosa como é conhecida por.

Amoooo... If only you knew ficou linda, e o final de Over the rainbow é d+! Mariah põe sua alma nas performances e ainda dizem q ela não canta com emoção ukhahkukuha

Awesome Mariah!

[ucanthavethis]

amazing voice anf she did a wonderful job

[mlambguy2513]

I agree!

[mlambguy2513]

I love this performance. Mariah is simply amazing. Her and Patty are great friends too. Mariah is my idol and has been for YEARS! Her music is the soundtrack to my life.

[andres1163]

the best Video

[ThatSingingBoy]

idk whats goin on wit her hair, but the voice is on point as always...

[gabannaboy]

Miss Carey If only you knew q eres la unica DIVA que brilla mas por todo lo alto del arcoiris.

[MAGIC07]

She looks like a tree

[CyprusHot]

are u 2 years old?

[HamOpRyDz]

da best version of deez songs i've heard! ur da bomb gurl hehehehe if onli u still wer like diz nowdayz

[WH012]

this was very good.shes a great talent, but dont u guys think Mariah makes singing look hard to do. it seems every time she sings she struggles a bit to get it out.

[MAGIC07]

Its just her style...........Shes just showing how emotioanl she is about patti and the song..

[musicgenius808]

LOL. well, a singer has hard times to sing, and easy times to sing. can't you hear mariah having a hard time? we as mariah fans should be more understanding that SINGING ALMOST EVERYTIME is very hard.

well, i know this because i have known a lot of singers who sing almost EVERYTIME. so yeah...we fans should be more understanding about her hitting the high notes.

[dreamlover55]

yeah yeah

[NelsonY]

Wow... not feeling the dress that much... the hair's a tad to big, and she's too controlled with her singing! As a Mariah fan, she needed to hit a high note somewhere... like at the end. What tribute to Patti LaBelle was this from?

[CyprusHot]

u ask for too much.... get a life :)

[NelsonY]

How? Does she not have more power than this? Not that this wasn't powerful. Let's see if Jessica Simpson can do this.

[CyprusHot]

every time she sings, she does not have to sing powerfully, each song is different!

[ricobhi]

yeah but the thing is that she was doing a tribute to Patti, and when she does these tributes to her idols she usually tries not to oversing or do a lot of vocal acrobatics. She's not trying to outsing Patti - just paying respect. Did u see the version of "You and I" on the Stevie Wonder tribute?

[ricobhi]

the hair...well yeah, it was a style thing she was going through at the time. remember the hair in the first divas live concert in 1999? that was some crazy hair.

[trentnjones]

That was 98. This performance was around the same time as Divas.

[Kainosielu]

This is yet amazing perfomance. I get chills everytime I listen to it.

[drmc17]

i think what's important now is mariah's contribution to the industry, she's been underated but she's the artist who shows real appreciation to her fans. her voice may change but at least she's the same person we love and will continously support.

[uae1974]

nicely put.. she's done much more than all her competitors combined

[christinenaz]

so funny that there are a lot of people who hate her and yet still listen to her songs... hahaha

[narouga]

amazing !! she hit sucha low note at 00:07 like really low.. wow !

[pop8386]

Oh my god that was so good.  The run on "fly" might be her best...ever?

[KieranPugh07]

what time is the fly bit thanks :)

[pop8386]

1:50-1:55

[KieranPugh07]

she just amazes me more in every single performance lol xox

[Flipboy5]

I always loved how emotional she got in this performance. I love the wild hair too. Great version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow.

[LauraWarwick]

Catch a sneak preview of Laura Warwick's live session here: youtube. com/watch?v=YawII61I_k4

[MDK489]

perfect. amazing. she is the best, hands down.

[benbossy1]

She'S just perfect !!!! No matter what others said SHE'S THE DIVA,THE VOICE,THE

[angieray]

shee ıs the ONE!

[jaquen1977]

One of her most emotional performances. This still effects me after nearly a decade has passed. From an purely soulful point of view, truly one of her best.

[Jrnb14]

Agreed 100%

[dacandy]

why does she not make feat with female artist? Does she has to be the only female...

[anthonymolie]

i think it would be hard in this day in age to find a female singer who can really sing with her, some singers just dominate songs no matter who they sing them with

[dacandy]

Tony Braxton has just as much talent as she does.

[emmanjohn25]

but toni braxton can't whistle............

[yenyd14344]

the song was a bit unfamiliar for me...! but there are some parts the seem to be familiar..>!

[iCrave77]

The first part of the song is by Patti LaBelle "If Only You Knew"

[MDK489]

does anyone know what she is singing when she first comes out? i know the end is obviously somewhere over the rainbow, but im confused about the beginning/intro

[MAGIC07]

If only you know knew

[EDT3270]

If Only You Knew

[gabannaboy]

Cuando le haran un tributo a Mariah? seria magnifico ver a patti labelle, aretha franklin, whitney houston participar en un tributo para Miss Carey

[sueczj]

one of my favourite performances. somewhere over the rainbow is one of my favourite songs so to hear my favourite singer sing it is amazing. lovin the hair too.

[gurlmagnet2k7]

gumaya lang si kyla kay mariah sa rendition niya ng somewhere over the rainbow... poor kyla..

[rican82]

i always wondered why the crowd seemed so "off" during this performance... she sounded so soulful and amazing and yet she barely got any credit for this performance. this is one of my favorite performances mariah has ever given...

[eastside4445]

love the song and her voice

[fastcars83]

LOVE U MARIAH

UR SIMPLY THE BEST KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK

p.s LAMB

[mlambguy2513]

She's simply the best.

[hOniiDiip]

omg. i love it

[plyrangelbaby]

I Loved It!!!!

[desperatebrix]

ive seen the behind the scenes coverage of this show and it was told there that mariah was informed on that very same day that she was going to perform so she immediately got out of bed and went to the show. no practice at all, just a couple of sound checks..

[aleexd]

i don't now what's the matter with her hair.. but she was awesomeee! i still love heeeer!!!!&hearts;

[mariahc1fan]

this is the best live performance by mariah!!!!!!!!

[mlambguy2513]

I so thank Mariah for this performance. I love it. So emotional.

[justgc]

Years on and I still cant get enough of this.

[ToNGanStuNNa650]

Beyonce aint got nothin on Mariah...Beyonce pretty but thats it period. haha forreals though ppl

[flybutter999]

She's so emotional in this performance...

[jescarey]

...Somewhere Over the rainbow

[Jasiebu]

I LOVE you Mariah. You are AMAZING!!!

[herbertao]

She´s tottaly perfect !!! just amazing...

She always makes me feel so emotional with her voice!

Luv Mariah 4evah!

[mlambguy2513]

Her voice just makes me feel so nice.

[horseluvrva]

Mariah is one of the most amazing gifts from God.

[mlambguy2513]

I so agree.

[linardp3]

she made this song hers!!! very great performance, tonal, dynamics awesome, headtones were excellent, rangy, lower notes are intact...great!

[milla557]

1999 (Shes wearing the 99' vh1 divas hair due)

[marikitna]

97 vh1 davs u mean

[t2407]

at 16 or 17 seconds she luks like shakira with the big blonde hair and similar face.

but the voice im gona have to say is wayyyy by farr beta than shakiras!

[milla557]

Its a mix, she added somewhere over the rainbow, and if only you knew together. So you won't find it if your looking for it on limewire or something.
