@@philroyce1144beyonce admitted on her interview that she learned riffs and runs by listening Mariahs songs back then when she still not famous. MC is already a legend so never will beyonce touch MCs achievement and talent.
Standing ovation. Not everybody can do that in a house of elites and people who have no relation to pop culture. It is the TALENT that rang in everyone's HEART AND SOUL.
This was not even a Mariah Carey concert and all eyes (young and old) are locked on her. They said to themselves "oh this is the woman who is selling all those records, this is the woman with all these #1 chart singles." These people knew they were watching one of the biggest stars and best singers of all time. Even President Bill Clinton knew, and young Mariah in her prime did not disappoint.
whatever the case.....very few pop stars would accept this type of engagement where the audio system etc are this level. To fake it, you have to have control of the system. Mariah knew at this point in time that she had very good control of her pipes and that she could shine with the mediocre karaoke set they provided her. Love that lady in the back audience who is wiping her tears.
she didn't look comfortable here. and they really didn't give her any personal space (people are sitting just behind her). but she still pulled it off perfectly.
@@lucasvandegucht6290 eh? butterfly era was a tad better imo. She had a mature raspy voice and it sounded a lot fuller. Her voice in daydream era was bit too bright for my taste
What amazes me is how many people there are in the audience wiping tears away while Mariah was singing. This song has really given hope to lots of people including me. What an amazing artiste Mariah is.
If there is one thing certain in life- it was that I can come to any video of Mariah singing hero during 1996 and hear her sing "tear them away" in the bridge like an angel
jsut wow.. this is a true artist.. a singer… a legend… all the other singers in the industry should just have to give their respect and admiration to Mariah..
3:21 is that little girl in the pink singing along? I would be sobbing if I was in the audience for this!!! Mariah truly is a treasure and so blessed from God.
god. i miss when you could look forward to those notes. not some dodge of the note, or supplement of the note, but when she could just hit the notes. i still love mariah, and i still love the voice she has. but she was so magical then.
This song cant get any better and nobody is able to replicate this. Perfect!!!! Tears on my eyes. A dream would be to stay there and presence this. Mariah showing us how to overcome her own studio version live.
It’s so hard to listen to Hero without shedding a tear or two. There will never be a singer songwriter as amazing as her. She touch our hearts in so many different ways. 😍😭
She’s such a champ - she just goes with the flow even though she deserved the best at this point - she would be the first one to say the background music should be slower here but she sang to it and kept up 🤷🏻♂️
Yes, her voice detoriated in the beginning of 98. But she rested it and recovered completely. She transitioned to butterfly era towards the end of 98 with a fuller, raspier, buttery voice and she still retained the same range. Some even prefer her tone in butterfly era more because her tone was a bit too high and girlish during daydream era.

Lol theres a reason why Beyonce wont cover Whitney or Mariah cause she knows she cant come close
Shut the f*ck up girl of course this was live

Not to burst your bubble there, but it kind of is the right thing to do, look at a person who is singing, performing or speaking on a stage.
Carlos Mack But when she got older, she disappointed audiences on “live” singing. Not to discredit her talent tho. Everyone gets old by the way.
Love this comment
There’s no young Mariah bc she is forever young.
@@vladcampos4372 she still has a perfect voice and amazing performances, but it's no secret she's not in her prime now.
Mariah sings this like an opera aria. Its just so many trills and scales. That voice. And on a shitty sound system. It's pitch perfect!
i like that comparison
Her mother's an opera singer.
doreal Oh yea that is right!
+doreal omg no wayy i like never knew that! Like where have i been...-_-
What trills? A note with vibrato is NOT a trill.
3:37 look at the guy behind mariah casually wiping away a tear.
He looks sad so probably haha also at 3:25 the woman on the right 😢😅
Not tears dumbarse lol
I’d cry too if I was there. But I was only a 1 month embryo at the time
He was fixing his glasses
Those weren't tears lol
"Enough to bring a grown man to tears."
One Of The Best Performances I Have Ever Witnessed..
Andy Dayana mariah carey has the best preformances
How old are you know and back then?
Whitney houston is the voice and its a reason why
@@MuscularDUDE This is Mariah Carey lmao

lollll at 'mediocre karaoke set'
Thats because its used for announcements not singing. Im thinking..
Lmao that's literally what I was thinking the whole time
This was somber occasion to honor dead service personnel and not a rock concert. So I think this was apt l.
Okay hunty preach lmaooooo
AND THAT WAS LIVE PERIOD
.
So much slayage in this live performance! She just killed it in front of the president.
she didn't look comfortable here. and they really didn't give her any personal space (people are sitting just behind her). but she still pulled it off perfectly.
I feel it too. Because she was being watched by the President perhaps
She was on the verge of divorcing Tommy. You can see the awkwardness between them at the end
its not the space, is a Memorial service. She just caution, make sure do nothing wrong.
She wanted to perform. Tommy forced her to. And it her anxiety stemmed from the fact that they were fighting at the time.
Mariah&WhitneyLamb exactly lol
Mariah Carey had a PERFECT voice back then....beautiful, strong, clear, agile, PERFECT in every way.
Especially 1997

SHE SANG THIS ON MY BIRTHDAY MAY 19, 1996 THE BEST PRESENT I COULD ASK FOR😭
That's my birthday too, I was just born 6 years later hahahha
Alex Leal my birthday is also may 19 lol ☠️☠️
Retro Dico Period 💙
Amos~x-cellxx i want to show you my mariah poster😂😂
whoa she sang this the exact birth date of my older sister 5/19/96. huhu
Everything about Mariah Carey SCREAMS 90’s, a much better, simpler time. She’s a staple in one of the best decades to date. Mimi the 👑
She never scream in 90... she sing higth its not the same.
@@Plutonia-o6o that’s not what she meant
One of the most important songs she ever wrote. The greatest musician ever. Legend.
i love how the mic switches from the mic feed to the sound captured by the camera. i love this perspective
This is ALL LIVE! And Mariah sang it so beautifully even though the sound system was so poor!
it's because shes not fake dear, very few singers today are auto tune. Unlike in the 90s era its all hard earned vocals
The greatest vocalist of all time
This deserves 200 million views...
If there is one thing certain in life- it was that I can come to any video of Mariah singing hero during 1996 and hear her sing "tear them away" in the bridge like an angel
This makes mariah carey's voice so unique .. it make its own reverb and echo.
They are lucky to hear Mariah's angelic Voice live.
That Silky voice of hers! 😍
God sent us an angel to sing to us and to fulfill our souls...
What a beautiful tone! Such buttery and with great sensitivity, without any studio polishing. Her tone is so refined like a piece of art.
My mother always said , you can't be and have been , when you reached that level of perfection, i think she was right , miss you so much
To all my boys, it's okay to cry when you experience something so beautiful.
I wish the entire performance was like the audio at 0:50 ... something about the live echo from the speakers sounds amazing
The resonance of her voice omg 🥺🙌Tommy Motola was😎
jsut wow.. this is a true artist.. a singer… a legend… all the other singers in the industry should just have to give their respect and admiration to Mariah..
The fact that this is raw as fuck is just amazing!
3:21 is that little girl in the pink singing along? I would be sobbing if I was in the audience for this!!! Mariah truly is a treasure and so blessed from God.
I think so
She was yawning i think
Maybe eating chewing gum?😂
It's clear that she's singing but then again this was when Mariah Carey was in her prime in terms of her career
Such an untouched voice! This is perfection!
This is the voice she recorder butterfly with 🥰🥰
Simply stunning! ❤ Voice from another dimension
She gives all her best note on this day
Every eye in that place was focused on Mariah & she did not disappoint
Just saw her on her caution tour. She sang this song and she was incredible!!!!!!!!!
The best singer of all time
They are so lucky to witness this incredible performance of queen mimi i wish i was born at this time
3:21 awwe look at the little girl in the pink singing along. 😭❤
2018 anyone? Mah goodness MC... No one in the planet can ever outdo her performance during her prime. ❤
LOVE SEEING STUFF LIKE THIS... the Vibe and everything back then just seemed so intrestingly amazing seeing how people looked and everything.. cOOL!!!
you tube yeah
That is beautiful that Mariah did a tribute.
god. i miss when you could look forward to those notes. not some dodge of the note, or supplement of the note, but when she could just hit the notes. i still love mariah, and i still love the voice she has. but she was so magical then.

everyone is just staring at her and thinking is this a voice of an angel?
Totally stripped back, raw, honest, beautiful, LIVE. absolutely gorg. Like her inside and out
5 months later I was born. (Oct. 1, 1996) I was born to idolize the living gemstone Morayahhhh Goddess Careyyyyy 😍😍😍
Thats so sweet 😘
Everything in this performance is BEAUTIFUL....
To her that live in Mariah's vocal prime...just wow
i love her in the 90s. She's enjoy singing. now she's just for show. The passion isn't as strong as when she was before.
Su forma de cantar y su voz maravillosa es un deleite y placer escucharla a la gran Mariah Carey....mi humilde saludo desde el lejano Perú
THE STANDING OVATION though 👏👏👏 #LEGEND #QUEEN
This looks like a funeral, they just do not deserve her
Mariah is such a rare gem! Queen 👑💎
She’s such a champ - she just goes with the flow even though she deserved the best at this point - she would be the first one to say the background music should be slower here but she sang to it and kept up 🤷🏻♂️
I love her
Best version of Hero ever 😍😍😍 Loooove the climax
Mariah had the level to sound good whatever the situation.
simply the most amazing and inspiring song.
I was 17 days old when this came out😊
Mariah really looking around in the first 10 seconds to make sure everyone is ready for this slayage
This is one of Her best live- Versions, I think!
😊
ohh my god..she is so sweet sweett sweeettttt
Here, she was at her BEST. Vocally speaking. No one, like her. No one. ❤
She sounds like a goddess!
Mariah the living legend diva
Wow ! This is an incredible performance ! So powerful and so flawless ! Plus she looks 16
always makes me cry omg..LOVE THIS PERFOMANCE
She sang this a day after my 1st birthday, and this is my favorite Hero performance ever! so raw...
It's so crazy to think that only a few months after this, her voice would show massive deterioration. She sounded amazing here.
It crushed my soul to know that, so perfect here and months later we would all see what was coming.
she was just tired in butterfly era :)
Yes, her voice detoriated in the beginning of 98. But she rested it and recovered completely. She transitioned to butterfly era towards the end of 98 with a fuller, raspier, buttery voice and she still retained the same range. Some even prefer her tone in butterfly era more because her tone was a bit too high and girlish during daydream era.
so inspiring is she
It's just so sad. I hope that every Hero doesn't die. God bless them.
Without question, this is THE best live performance of Hero. Some of those insane notes she hits in chest voice is like, who the f else can do that???
only Mariah Carey her self can out do Mariah. My fav hero live in in Jay Layno not the highest but most touching to soul In my opinion
The one in Madison square garden is still untouched
no 1994 spain one is
The best performance of Hero ever!
Omg. Sooo amazinggggggg
This made me cry. This is an emotional performance.
PERFECTION! ❤️
She destroyed them that day while using that shitty sound system😂. She hit every note you could think of.
this video is too precious this is what i love the most of mariah her voice is like a heaven sent! an angel! 😢😍
I love Mariah so much! This song is beautiful and just doing this all was just a beautiful tribute😊😭
Although I already know this song, but every time she sings it moves me, I cry and at the same time it gives me a strong inner strength!
perfect better than the oriiginal
I mean she's the original
@@seiji-kun9488I’m sure they meant she sang it better here than she did on the original record back in 93..
@@seiji-kun9488 Pretty sure they mean the studio version.
Magnifique!!!!! Look at the president he is so impressed by her incredible voice
Yes he does. ☺️ Wonderful performance!
One of the most beautiful live performances of her, magnificent!
love it so much!! i really2 believe that 1996 was her best time vocally.
This is my favorite performance of this song.
Qué la gente está muerta lo que hace esta mujer es espectacular Mariah en esta etapa me deja sin palabras.
Stunning performance
She was out of breath and still hit that high belt on the bridge girl WYD
omg!!! she's so simple here! so sincere !!! loved this! didnt know she recorded the choir parts already in 96!
Never can someone hit in her prime ❤🎉
one of the best live versions of Heroes
Bella hermosa inolvidable
She just really have a good heart, she always gove her best effort everytime she sings for a cause like this.
absolutely amazing,great vocal.😁😁🖒🖒🖒👏👏👏
