  • I like Mariah's low register.

  • It just might be one of the most rare historical accounts in recorded history. It is uploaded on my channel. A never before released wtc attack video that is a continuous running account. The only such video account that exists. It is a time capsule; it is the answer to the question: what would it have been like to watch that all unfold right before my eyes.. without the media.. just to watch it all from beginning to the end.. in a non-production way. Only one 'Tuesday Morning in September'

  • very nice

  • It sounds like a Christmas carol here...

  • god ppl everyone one has there own way of singing the national anthem and in my opinion Mariah,Beyonce,and Whitney did the best performances of the national anthem

  • it's very disrespectful for people to say Whitney's version was better, even though it was, BEYONCE was the complete best!

  • @jwizz4shizz LOL you are clearly deaf

  • @XxxExaltedOnexxX no I hear just fine, though at some points during this song, I wish I was deaf. Mariah has a very beautiful voice, but she should have practiced this song a little more. The screeching and occasional flat note proved to be quite unbearable at moments.

  • @jwizz4shizz No im not talking about Mariah lol im talking about whitney next to whitney beyonce's voice sounds as thin as paper

  • What was tha? Land of the fr**********?

  • I agree with @Vargo0071.

    Whitney actually inspired Mariah carey.

    Whitney tought Mariah to sing better than she could.

  • the "braaaaaaaaaaaaave" was just orgasmic

  • Is she black or just really tan? haha

  • @JHK3productions

    she's actually white.

  • @PreciousMariah22 She's not white..........she's mixed.

  • @bfhfsuruyw

    yes she's mixed but she's asking what is her original color. LOL. haha :D

  • Mariah Carey can sing so forget all yall but I do agree Whitney sang it better then anyone else but I don't see anything wrong with this what so ever

  • Whitney and MAriah are 2 different women with 2 different voices. And BOTH sang the anthem beautifully. Whitney's version was a bit more powerful, but I like Mariah's to because she did NOT try to be like anyone else but HERSELF, and she did a great job!

  • whitney won this one but mariah wins the xmas songs :)

  • i love her voice =D

  • Love it.. but isn't she lip synching? A lot of artist do and I'm not bashing her. It just looks like it.

  • @Liddie00 i was asking myself the same thing

  • In my opinion, she could've done better.

  • I read someone comment and they pointed out that Mariah Carey Star "Sangled Banner" was prerecorded.....Now I love Mariah and she's #1 in MY BOOK, but just so you know Whitney's was prerecorded also that why both Whitney & Mariah went back and song the songs again. So dont bash Mariah her and Whitney were good friends and thats all that should really matter anyway.

  • @hotplaymaterandy you are so right but i was was comparing beyonce and whitney, and mariah came up. and i saw the 1st post, and i was just just saying that whitney did it better.

  • hey pretty much everyone can sing this better than me lol but i dont like when artists change up the song and add their own little thing to it.....why cant anyone just sing it the way its supposed to be?

  • @mz40oz - The point of all these different artists adding "their own little thing to it" is to show their individualistic takes on the song, to showcase their own styles and bring their own beauty to the song. Besides, one of the things our country stands for is DIVERSITY. So why not show off your own DIVERSE style and FREEly add a touch or two to the otherwise very simple, basic tune? The national anthem has taken many shapes and sounds because of its "malleability" by all these artists

  • Comment removed

  • I've loved Whitney's music my entire life just like anyone else but give it a rest people.! Before she died no one cared about our anthem being sung except for Christina's mishap now everyones all over Whitney...the recent "abundance of love" for her is just as shallow as all the drug/alcohol abuse jokes that were being made days..years before her death.!

  • my name is ,mariah i been singing since i was 4 i singing old school

  • did i hear a squeak? horrrible

  • what's interesting is if you just go back in the comments to like a week and a half ago...nobody was saying ANYTHING about Whitney's version... don't wait until someone dies to appreciate them. And yes you should honor the dead, but not by disrespecting the living...enjoy the legends we are blessed to still have, INCLUDING Mariah.

  • All of you need to shut the hell up. Seriously. Half of you wouldn't be insisting Whitney's version was better if she hadn't died a week ago. Want to obsess over Whitney's version? Go to Whitney's video. Don't do it here. -_____-

  • Nicely done, but... I don't hear the word "free", I just hear a high pitch squeak.

  • @regiauniversitaria It's called the whistle register. ;)

  • @engrish2006 Thanks! LOL

  • Whitney houston then beyonce

  • Nobody can beat "THE VOICE" (Whitney Houston).

  • bored

  • WHy do we have to compare??? everyone sings it in their own way... they're all amazing!

  • People can be so ignorant.. Sure, Whitney did a great job at singing the anthem, but every singer out there can't be Whitney. Whitney was her own person, Mariah is her own person. Leave it at that.

  • I love it how she takes it higher and higher at the end and holds it there, with a single breath WOOOW

  • Whitney Houston was WAY BETTER!

  • @merlan114 then go listen to Whitney. no one is stopping you

  • whitney and mariah song the best ones

  • @dookych33s3 and beyonce

  • @dookych33s3 Whitney Houston's was way better.

  • PLEASE JUST STOP IT!! Why would you all see it necessary to come under a MARIAH CAREY video and talk about how 'Whitney was better' or 'Whitney has the best version of the N.A'?? COME ON!! I understand that you may prefer her rendition and that she has indeed died and would like to pay your respects but seriously, why would you seek out Mariah's version of the song just to bad-mouth it? That's really immature and you all should know Whitney wouldn't have approved..

  • @Vargo0071 well i think that whitney was better as well, i was listen to whitney before and i started going thru all the people who have sang it, and so far whitney did do it the best

  • @Vargo0071 people can B hypocrites. they will say the same thing when mariah dies, and celine dion and beyonce... i totally agree with your comment. they mock michael jackson 4 being a child molester and whitney on crack n all of sudden they died and they're now gods greatest gift.

  • wow she was as good as i thought she would be ,

  • 1. Beyonce

    2. Whitney Houstan

    3. Mariah??

  • @Love42Beasley8Rubio9 Fuck you and your mainstream-dick-riding list! The nerve.

  • @Sileni lmao. so emotional.

  • Yessss!!!!

    

  • God bless Whitney Houston. Amen

  • Whitney & Mariah are really DIVAS.

    So, they're was friends... R.I.P Whitney Houston

    Long live Mariah Carey!

  • Comment removed

  • beautiful

  • and it was Mariah what did you expect love this

  • i love love love Whitney's version && Mariah's version . but Whitney's is the absolute best..

  • I love you Mariah You have very amazing voice

  • the ending was awesome!!!

  • I see a lot of people are commenting on the whistle but are you aware that was pre-recorded? She didn't hit that note live.

  • @cupcake36124 thank you! nobody realizes that

  • She sure did hit that note!

  • Whitney - none other - the rest of you can sit down now

  • Im ahrd core Mimi fan til the day i die.............But a true Angelic Voice sang this song and that Angel was Whitney bless her and may she live in us for years to come

  • Man, that high note was so unexpected...sends chills up my spine! Even though Whitney's version is the ultimate supreme, I love Mariah Carey!

  • Oh my, this sucked so much balls. A big sack of balls. Every time Mariah hit a high note or tried to is was like nails on a chalk board. Kelly Clarkson this year did very well, not better than Whitney but 2nd or 3rd.

  • @ metraking192

  • Didn't top Whitney...but came close...better than most

  • she is sooo beautiful :)

  • Her eyes are amazing :)

  • Oh say does that star spangled...she needed to enunciate here more...and that dog whistrle was unecessary. She ended well, I also really like Sandy Patti's version of the Star Spangled Banner.

    Good, not stellar.

  • What the FUCK does Whitney Houston have to do with this performance?? Why must people ALWAYS compare people?? Two different people with two different styles....LET IT GOOO!!! Your opinions are like ASSHOLES, we all have ONE!!

  • Lo siento, pero Whitney Houston cantó mucho mejor el himno de su país, Maria Carey canta lindo, eso no se discute, pero no le llega cerca a Whitney y mucho menos la supera.

    Whitney era realmente "La voz". Whitney, descanza en paz.

  • People are only saying Whitney is better because she is dead now, which is understandable considering the amount of bandwagon idiots we have in this country. Same thing happened with Michael Jackson when he was hated on before. I love both singers, but here Mariah displays far superior vocal control, flexibility, and range. Whitney's version was stronger, definitely, but not better.

  • Love it how everyone refers to whitney now that shes dead, pretty fuckin obnoxious how everyone hops on her bandwagon when everyone was hating her the day before.

  • She has a beautiful voice but WHITNEY sings is it waaay better. I loved that high note though.

  • barf...

    her voice is so annoying.

  • lolol. Mariah Carey did good. She really did her thing.

  • did u hear her voice on 2:32...............her voice is amazing

  • how can you screw up yhe words? devizardo I'm with you.

  • @xxtyler626xx a lot of people do, even the most professional of entertainers. It just happens! At least we know they're not lip syncing when they f up the words!

  • Best performance of the US National Anthem is Whitney Houston... PERIOD

  • @DeVizardofOZ good, but definitely not Whitney

  • @ckrosi

    I am not American but Whitneys version of the the National Anthem has been on my favourites for many years. Mariah Carey sang it to get record sales, I have never liked her voice. Whitney sang everything with passion and she sang perfectly, The world has lost a wonderful voice, RIP Whitney

  • @Sukkii25 yeh yeh yeh... well thats why... DONT DO DRUGS lol..

  • @Sukkii25 omg i was just saying that on my face book.. find me face book lets be friends, lol

  • @Sukkii25 you and 24 other people have no idea what the hell your talking about

  • @Sukkii25 If you want to hear some real soul in the SSB check out Carl Lewis who took it to a whole new level. After all his whining about the number of millions of $ he was getting for being the self-styled "Michael Jackson of Athletics", I'm sure self-aggrandizement had absolutely nothing to do with it. Likewise when they wheeled on the dismal Jay-Z for the Calzaghe/Mayweather fight to warble it like a bitch with hemorrhoids. .

  • @DeVizardofOZ I think its the truth but if so then why did you wait til she die to post this

  • @DeVizardofOZ BEYONCE!

  • @DeVizardofOZ

    you aint lieng

  • @DeVizardofOZ Well wait now, she's got some stiff competition like say, Marvin Gaye.

  • Oh, the dolphin whistle

  • I think Mariah did a great job I like both her and Whitney, I think they both sang the song as the individuals they both are and were and they did fantastic

  • That whispery sh*t is annoying.

  • SHAME ON YOU! MARIAH AHD WHITNEY WERE CLOSE FRIENDS, YOU FANS AND THE MEDIA TURN THEM AGAINST EACH OTHER, JUST SHUT UP! RIP WHITNEY

  • You just know Mariah made the announcer include the part about her being the biggest selling female artist in history XD

    LOL!

  • I know that everyone is voting for who is the best superbowl singer and Whitney's name has been brought up. Whitney is better than the rest of the singers including Mariah Carey. I think that they both did a fantastic job and they both sang it with pride at a moment when America needed to be united. Whitney's name has been brought out due to her recent passing and I think, out of respect, most will probably choose her. If Mariah pass everyone will pay tribute to her and pick her as the best sup

  • was she very sad when she heard about the death of whitney houston

  • @metraking192 she cried, why are people putting the two singers against each other?

  • was Mariah Carey a friend of Whitney Houston who died last night

  • @metraking192 yes 

  • She's by far much mOre talented and way more sOphisticated than Whitney.

    My respects to Ms.Houston R. I. P.

  • @Registrosagrado are you crazy? she couldn't be a pimple on whitneys ass.

    she's a no -frills showgirl type and whtney was a classy, talented,gorgouse, icon.

    dont compare toilet paper with diamonds.

  • Hot damn That made my day

  • She is very talented with her own style. Very Good

  • ain't got nothin on whitney!

  • i think charice version if more sincere more power more soul more emotion.. exudes patriotism watch JUST WATCH TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE

    /watch?v=8WG4IkWqHtg

    .. thanks

  • Of course, she has an incredible voice. But not comparing her to anyone.. and seeing how this was the only song she had to sing that day....

    It was way too restrained,whispery.. and soft spoken.

    She didnt really let it go full tilt...til nearly at the end.

    It still was, indeed, beautiful but this is a power song.

  • I love Mariah, but this was boring. Whitney set a bar that can't be reached.

  • No one can touch Whitney's version....IMHO

  • Beyonce's version doesn't compare to Whitney's or Mariah's

  • Now I know why whitney hold back when they sang in their duet in "When you believe" because Whitney's voice can swallow Mariah's

  • LMAO @ "dumb dolphin whistle" hahahaha.

  • DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVADIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA DIVA

  • some of yaw are crazy with these orders lol. i think whitney and beyonce were equal but if i had to pick an order it would be whitney-beyonce-than jennifer hudson-then mariah. i think jennifer hudson lost points with me because it was pre-recorded

  • Mariah was amazing, but the national anthem needs a bit more power like whitney and beyonce did! If you could combine mariah's beginning, whitneys middle and beyonce's end of the anthem it would be perfect

  • @adamY2K I don't see much power in Beyonce's voice. She is very pitchy and has to take too many breaths. I give whitney #1 nd untouchable all the way. Her voice control is awesome. she can go up and down effortlessly and powerfully. Gone too soon. RIP whitney

  • 2:14 Damn Mariah you are so goood!

  • Im sorry but Beyonce Killed Mariah at this !!

  • this is pre recorded

  • WOW WOW WOW nothing more to say....that was just amazing...BEST!!!!!!!!!!

  • 1. Whitney

    2. Kelly

    3. Mariah

    4. Jennifer

  • I still say...

    1. Whitney Houston

    2. Jennifer Hudson

    3. Kelly Clarkson (SB 2012) & Beyonce

  • wow mariah

    0:32

  • PLAY-BACK?

    

  • @oliver18107 NO!!! :) National Anthem and lip singing??? come on....nope she is that good....

  • i just listened to like 15 others and saved hers for last cuz i had a feeling hers would beat them all!

  • @steph61585 1991 Whitney HOUSTON blows them all outta the water !!! R.I.P WHITNEY.

  • the national anthem can be sung by anyone who sings from their heart. it's not about how artistic you can be with your voice. all these ups, downs, and arounds are not impressive when it comes to this particular song. like someone else said...save that for the top 40 countdown. take a lesson from Ms. Houston.

  • from 2:35 I get goose bumps

  • im always begin to get tears in my eyes because she sings so beatiful

  • mnneehh...

  • Goosebumps o;!!

  • Love it!!! Check me out me

    on my page, nexxx2meka.

    Comment please.

  • This is all lip singing beyonce done a better job at singing n so did christina aguilera!!!

  • @MyPeanut1991

    LMAO - Beyonce's was lip synched you idiot - Christina was live and horrible (every time) 

  • U r the best Mariah !!!! I love your smile and your voice !!!!! I love U !!

  • She makes it seem so effortless

  • Pre recorded idiots! DUH

  • this is amazing!

  • I wonder did she stay and watch the game very curious

  • why does she look so white?

  • @bhittsmv9 she is white?

  • @megkristine8 Mariah Carey is biracial.

  • i think mariah carey and shakira were separated at birth :/ they are probably sister

  • DAMN! I LOVE HER!(:

  • i hope Mariah Carry one day again will sing the national anthem at Super Bowl , im F**king love her voice

  • ela é umas das maiores cantoras que já existiram, aqui no brasil, comentasse muito o nome da elis regina, porém a mariah da um banho na elis, eu acho...

    o bom da elis era mais sua performance, nos palcos, cantava como nossos pais de uma forma viceral e verdadeiramente unica e imortal...

  • mariah definitely has a beautiful voice. but i dont see what the big deal is about this performance. i liked it until i heard that dumb dolphin whistle. yes, we understand you can do it. no, you do not have to do it every performance lol. either way this didnt come close to whitney's version.
