God Mariah is so amazing! I thought I'd already heard her sing in every possible way that she could! But this one takes the cake in extremely different and amazing!
BLUE BIRDDSSS FLYYYYYY !! LOL I can hear this song in my head when im like in the street or in the car. lol thats so weird but i remember every note she sings. I love her !!
What a fucking idiot her hair was made to look like this! Talking about natrul hair and she half black that dosent mean a thing she has natruly flat laying curls that do not stick out like some nappy Afro seeing as she is half white >.> I bet ur black,look though ull lie and say ur not ^_^
I am in tears. That was amazing Mariah. Patti was feelin it as well! I never thought anyone would be able to come close to Patti's version, but Mariah always proves me wrong!
@welsplash she was experimenting with big hair in 1998 you should have seen her at the First Divas Live on VH1 it was bigger lol she sounded great though.
1:46-1:55 *dies* goosebumps! so beautiful and so expressive. ... her vocal on butterfly (in the climax) i always picture it like a butterfly flapping it's wings and then it descends magically. her voice can camouflage. no one can do it but possibly Steve Wonder. best vocal tones in my opinion.
@whfan007 mariah sings evertime 100 % LIVE, she lipsynced when she had problems with her nodules. why dont you go watch your ANTI MARIAH VIDS? your embarrassing behavior / tries to drag mariah down because you know, your favorite & rival whitney cant sing today anymore and mariah is/was better then whitney, thats so clear. whitney cant even hit C5 without to crack ^_^ and you know also crack is wack, so quiet please #LOL
did you hear the roar of applause the audience gave her after she finished- they were clearly mesmerized by her stunningly beautiful melisma. how does she manage to stay pitch perfect whilst singing such vocal acrobatics- truly a gift from God.
Absolutely beautiful, this was during the Butterfly era I think, when her voice was beginning to detiorate, but in this performance she sounded absolutely fantastic. This is a rare performance from this era.
@lujous hold your horse, do you really know how to sing? i guess not, because you do no know how to appreciate good music...better than the stripper, c'mon are you one of hose strippers you mentioned? are you really insane, she is being recognized with her contribution yet you do not know how important she is in music industry...get the fuck out of here dumbass
thanks for the funny response. clearly your taste in music is driven by media created singers. A lot of today's singer's are all PR with little or no substance.
part of her gimmick is being half naked most of the time.
she's not the first to do this, but it works.
so I'll give her credit for that. And she needs to stick to the silly little songs she does so well.
really? hahahah what we are discussing here is not her ensemble but her voice as it is the one recognized and judged...important awards will not be given to artist not deserving for it...
Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel stands for being natural, having flaws, being imperfect. The reason why I am writing this is that some people expect her to look sexy all the time and it is just impossible. Like Whitney said in an interview with Oprah that she enjoys " sneakers, sweater and jeans" and Mariah is similar on her days off. It is so hard having to be perfect all the time. So even if her body weight fluctuates at times, it is her choice! We all are impecfect! I know I am!
Mariah Carey did an excellent job on this song. I wish that she had sung it on her Rainbow album. It would definately have been a smash! I hope that she gets to do this song in the future! I would love her to do this as a single. Somewhere over the rainbow is such a beautiful song and added with Mariah's studio vocals would just prove to be beyond this universe!Love ya Mariah!
Now I love Mariah to death.. but Patti version is better however... This is a well done performance and she killed it at the end.. Love me some Mariah.
@Bigchriztian01 She used melisma in nearly the entire song. Are you asking because you don't know what it is?You can hear it when she sings the part "blue birds..flyyyyyyyyyy" at 1:50 also a good run was at :52 seconds.
Everyone knows wht a huge mariah fan i am, but i have to say Leona's versions of this walks over this performance, especially with that 12 sec. Eb5 she holds.
you all obviously dont know what the hell ur tlkn bout cuz mariah is #1 maybe only an opinion but it counts it was way better than pattis version!!!!!!! LAMBS ROCK!!!!
beautiful performance and very emotional.. this was back in 1997 or 98 where her voice started to get obviously raspy, or should i say has started to change, but whatever it is, she delivered a performance that is truly an epitome of what a great artist should be. she nailed it! she owned the song even for a night only!
this is a good lesson in appreciating different genres of music, mariah has given us a very soulful and amazing version of a classic song... and gotta love her rendition of a patti labelle classic!
This and the performance of Make it Happen was her best. It didnt come close to the other performances from the other artists but I give her props. I just pity her voice. Shes my favorite artist of all time but she never shows consistincy and it gets me mad.
WOOOOOW!!!!!! Oh and her hair IS pretty big! ahahah She was on tha rosie show, rosie asked about it..mimi said diana ross and other divas had big hair, so why couldn't she?? ahahah That's right MIMI, you work that BIG hair! :P ahahha
This is one of my faverite Mimi performances. It's just so raw and emotional. I especially love how shows her range from low to high in this song. I can watch this video over and over again. Luv u Mimi!!!!
I think that is one of Mariah Carey's best performance. Short, but so beautiful. I love when Mariah Carey puts so much emotion into her songs. And she sounds great with a choir behind her. Somewhere over the rainbow is one of my favorite songs, and I love how it transitions from If Only I Knew.
Lovely, she is so cute like that. Not in that trashy clothes and straight hair... making weird songs with weird rappers that just dosn't deserve to be on her level.
