this made me cry within like 3 seconds after the song started. I don't know what it is about this song because no one has died close to me in a while. I think everytime I hear it, I think about how I WOULD feel when/if my dad passes away or my mom or my siblings or someone close like that. I love the words to this... it's so touching. Beautiful..Thanks for posting. She was great!
Wow no one can beat mariah carey's voice her vocals are just amazaing i love her singing live i enjoy each and every second of it love you mariah you show what a real person is and a real singer
At 3:42 that backup singer, no matter how good or LOUD she was, STILL can't fuck with Mariah. That woman's voice was still overwhelmed by her, and she wasn't even trying that hard.Try as you may bitch, I'm sorry, you aint got shit on her. And this was an amazing performance by the way. When I see her in this kind of vocal shape, it makes me so proud of her and I fall in love with her all over again and again.
Did anyone notice that Simon, Paula and Randy gave a standing ovation even before Mariah started to sing?? I didn't ever see someone get a standing ovation before they perform, at least on Idol
That back up singer needed to PIPE DOWN. If she wasn't one of Mariah's long time friends she probably got her ass fi-yad. Mariah was nailing it, 100% live and sounded like the album. This was a good era for live.
sexy body... soulful voice... let's accept it.. her voice is deteriorated already... but she doesn't have to prove anything to us and for those haters.... her voice was the biggest and the greatest voice before but she's only human... we have to just treat her as a legend and not to criticize her flaws... for me her voice is one of the most beautiful voice nowadays even if it is not perfect but it is very magical
@stevendjie Mariah was also the one doing the whistle notes during the belt. I know it's strange but it all happened because of her vocal nodules. Watch the Japanese TV performance of Touch My Body and you can also see her doing whistle/belt at the same time at the very end of the song.
@TheXwatts impossible? no. It's called multiphonic singing and Tuvan throat singers do it all the time (sometimes 3 or 4 pitches). It happens when a singer constricts their throat a lot, which is probably what is happening here, but inadvertently in this case.
@SwEeTcLoE I couldn't agree with you more. Leona doesn't have Mariah's range in voice. Mariah is a LEGEND full stop and unlike Whitney Houston, she's maintained her voice. With all the money and fame, it must be tempting to just go to the wrong path and get lazy but she is a hard worker and that's why she is still standing as a true and one and only DIVA.
@OKzs no. if you had read in some articles. if you have a vocal nodule and try to speak or sing. you will hear the hole of the voice. but not always . try to read it at wikipedia :D and some other website
that screeching sounds was mariah herself.that was the time when she actually miming.so the sound engineer should hv been off the mic automatically.but it failed.cause she just wouldnt reach those notes like we know all this time.but its all forgiven cause mariah we're talking about.
the last part was totally lipsynced. you can hear her "shrieking voice" at the background, ready, just in case the tape goes wrong.;P she's a great singer, hope to see her sing the song live. . .;P
MC almost squeaked, i think she warned her bvocals @ 2:17 a little before the 2nd Chorus started [notice that they adjusted their volume and w/e right after she made a signal] , altho they didnt handle it well either.
@ybaby1990 : It sounds to me like they turned her mic up during that point in case Mariah couldn't hit the note and they just had her mic too high...more of a mixing problem than the background singer trying to out-sing Mariah.
she also warned her Bvocals @ 4:14 where she said "HEY!" .. that Bsinger is ruining it!! I smell sum Firing baby.. ahahha!! MC is the best!! and not even a hight note can beat her!!
@JamieCleaton1 lmao! I don't know...it seems like she's singing in her chest voice and then there's this screetching noise at the same time haha especially at 4:01-4:03??
@candyblinggg haha, ur obviously not friends with her, I've met her like 7 times and it doesn't mean we are "friends"......that is not her backup singer, the backup singer is off key, off melody etc...mariah wouldn't allow her to sing like that and make mistakes
@d1nonlyrict you should teach her how to sing.. she needs the help of a professional like you to help her to sing maybe she could make some money to pay the bills if she had a professional vocal coach like you to help her hit those notes :)
@PreciousMariah22 What you are saying not only does not make sense it is 100% wrong "hole of her voice" does not make sense. Lots of people have nodules. Nodules just make you hoarse, and why would it only be from 3:51 -4:13 if it was "the hole of her voice" and not the whole ending... the rest of the performance is fine right? trust me, its the mic, feedback happens from mic alot, just search "mic feedback"
Mariah back-up singer is trying hard to do the high note and whistle but then she realized she is not Mariah dat even its low or high note it sound good to ear...xD
i here squeaking noises from the backup singers when mariah was singing her high parttt god they should really not sing it if they cant no offence though
when she wears earrings...she looks like a married woman haha...no offense but i love mimi more in the 90's than today....but this song makes me love her in present times...i mean people should write songs from their hearts and within past and present experiences not about partying and why you love FRIDAY..HAHAHA
this made me cry within like 3 seconds after the song started. I don't know what it is about this song because no one has died close to me in a while. I think everytime I hear it, I think about how I WOULD feel when/if my dad passes away or my mom or my siblings or someone close like that. I love the words to this... it's so touching. Beautiful..Thanks for posting. She was great!
mariah's peak was wow, still she's still pretty amazing, no one can take away what she sang for the last decades.
dis song makes me cry it reminds me of my friend!
MC is so great that you cant actually tell if she' s not singing live or singing live!!!! thats mc she's just a perfection ^^
Wow no one can beat mariah carey's voice her vocals are just amazaing i love her singing live i enjoy each and every second of it love you mariah you show what a real person is and a real singer
love mariah!
elle est tjrs performante et je la supporte pour cela !
i love everything about mariah!! i just don't know... i love her!!!
I always wonder what it would be like if Mariah was on American Idol in her prime. WOW. Now that would be something!
Mariah is strong enough to take over the backup vocals.You can tell she was trying to sing over them lol.
mariah mariah one and only .. hahaha living legend mariah!
To All Singers I Cant Even Forget that mariah is my favorite ^..^
wow!
amazing!
she's really the best!

I love her back up singer very nice voice :D

this is my fav celebrity moment on idol!
she is amazing

very good !!! i like the way she sings.
At 3:42 that backup singer, no matter how good or LOUD she was, STILL can't fuck with Mariah. That woman's voice was still overwhelmed by her, and she wasn't even trying that hard.Try as you may bitch, I'm sorry, you aint got shit on her.
And this was an amazing performance by the way. When I see her in this kind of vocal shape, it makes me so proud of her and I fall in love with her all over again and again.
a true diva :)
Did anyone notice that Simon, Paula and Randy gave a standing ovation even before Mariah started to sing?? I didn't ever see someone get a standing ovation before they perform, at least on Idol
shes beautiful and still has itt x
@petervu yeah simon has said before that mariah is one of his favorite female singers of all time
@missyesenia12 it might have been Mimi's own flem, BUT if it was one of the backup singers, I totally agree!!
That back up singer needed to PIPE DOWN. If she wasn't one of Mariah's long time friends she probably got her ass fi-yad. Mariah was nailing it, 100% live and sounded like the album. This was a good era for live.
@airplanefreak27 that screetching sound is mariah miming to the backing track, but noise coming out of her mouth by accident lol
mc#1 forever
MARIAH is a legend ! nobody can surpass her !
So true dahling🦋🥰
lol she's so cute in 5:22 with that little laugh haha
sexy body... soulful voice...
let's accept it.. her voice is deteriorated already... but she doesn't have to prove anything to us and for those haters.... her voice was the biggest and the greatest voice before but she's only human... we have to just treat her as a legend and not to criticize her flaws... for me her voice is one of the most beautiful voice nowadays even if it is not perfect but it is very magical

omg..she sings fuc*in well!!
Love u!
@TheXwatts impossible? no. It's called multiphonic singing and Tuvan throat singers do it all the time (sometimes 3 or 4 pitches). It happens when a singer constricts their throat a lot, which is probably what is happening here, but inadvertently in this case.
the backing vocals are actually good -it's just that their mics were too loud -
well done mariah - RIP Grandma x
@1dreamlover1 To quote mariah careys move glitter "They don't matter, there just backup"
She always sings the ending better than the rest of the song lol
In every live preformance the back up singer is suppose to the part she screams with mariah
My favourite part of this song EVER would be from 3:35 - 4:30.
The background singer !! ROFLMAO !!
@bluegirl8807 Yes, yrs back. I think that's what inspired her to write this song.
the the 4:00-4:03 is not the back up singer.
it is the hole of mariah's voice.
remember that mariah carey have a vocal nodule.
RIP mariah careys dad :)
@SwEeTcLoE I couldn't agree with you more. Leona doesn't have Mariah's range in voice. Mariah is a LEGEND full stop and unlike Whitney Houston, she's maintained her voice.

@TheXwatts She probably had some flem in her throat, it almost sounds like she is singing two pitches at once. Just a guess though!
the last part was totally lipsynced. you can hear her "shrieking voice" at the background, ready, just in case the tape goes wrong.;P she's a great singer, hope to see her sing the song live. . .;P
@jtking2504 She looks amazing here!
MC almost squeaked, i think she warned her bvocals @ 2:17 a little before the 2nd Chorus started [notice that they adjusted their volume and w/e right after she made a signal] , altho they didnt handle it well either.
she was so thin!!
lol shes been singing for 20 yrs now she bound to go a couple of ranges dwn
WOW shes so slim here
@Andrewstory79 u think she would be doin that if mariah hadnt asked her to sing that line? lol
@MrJNO123 probably the nodules or the mic
@ybaby1990 : It sounds to me like they turned her mic up during that point in case Mariah couldn't hit the note and they just had her mic too high...more of a mixing problem than the background singer trying to out-sing Mariah.
she also warned her Bvocals @ 4:14 where she said "HEY!" .. that Bsinger is ruining it!! I smell sum Firing baby.. ahahha!!
MC is the best!! and not even a hight note can beat her!!
she lost her voice at 3:04 minute...but shes a human
HAHAHA omg 3:42 is serious damn funny!!!
@JamieCleaton1 lmao! I don't know...it seems like she's singing in her chest voice and then there's this screetching noise at the same time haha especially at 4:01-4:03??
WOAH! 3:41 ..ok
@bkariel93 some artist are not religious so they dont mention gods name
lmaooo yeah toward the end it sounds soo scratchy from the backround singers
ughh
I THOUGH THIS SONG WAS MARIAH'S FAREWELL
@92024able no its mariah.
@Andrewstory79 lol i dont know where she finds her backup ppl
I would like to sing this song to those victims of the earthquarke in Japan recently.
Yo what's up with the background singers!?! They know very well when mariah sings the bridge, it's her moment not theirs!
how many years is mariah in showbiz industry?
Did anyone notice Maiah messed up at
2:23!! LOL
Look ather face...she kne she messed up
@TheQueenGia - LOL! Yea i see what you mean..lol!
@Andrewstory79
I thought the exact same thing when I first heard this XDD
@TheXwatts chorus
@PreciousMariah22 WTF hole of the voice? it's the mic feedback. dont be silly. I have been studying music for the longest time and it is impossible
@candyblinggg haha, ur obviously not friends with her, I've met her like 7 times and it doesn't mean we are "friends"......that is not her backup singer, the backup singer is off key, off melody etc...mariah wouldn't allow her to sing like that and make mistakes
@MrJNO123 ok...lol....i believe u...lol
@d1nonlyrict you should teach her how to sing.. she needs the help of a professional like you to help her to sing maybe she could make some money to pay the bills if she had a professional vocal coach like you to help her hit those notes :)
what was the back-up trying to do? She chop the performance. lol Mariah looked at her like WTF?
@PreciousMariah22
What you are saying not only does not make sense it is 100% wrong "hole of her voice" does not make sense. Lots of people have nodules. Nodules just make you hoarse, and why would it only be from 3:51 -4:13 if it was "the hole of her voice" and not the whole ending... the rest of the performance is fine right? trust me, its the mic, feedback happens from mic alot, just search "mic feedback"
mariah's voice is leaking.
@millenia08 That shrieking voice is not her, if you wait till everyone applauds at the end you can hear it.
very straight legs..wow
Did she sing for real or did she lip sing? It's hard to tell with her sometimes!
she's fatter now and sings better and she even sings emotions...the hardest song in the world...i think her size affects her diaphragm
she destroyed those contestants with this. ha
@rajibdavid Live 100%
She must have the best legs in showbiz!
what is that @ 4:00
@PreciousMariah22
Are you serious that is not coming from a human the mic is squealing, that is all, its a tech problem
Squeaky noise is Mariah's vocal nodules, it was quite bad during this period.
she's started lipsynching at the end
Mariah back-up singer is trying hard to do the high note and whistle but then she realized she is not Mariah dat even its low or high note it sound good to ear...xD
@rajibdavid - no she didn't. lol
LOL i love Mariah, but poor Maryann has to take all the slack for that Schreeching noise
i here squeaking noises from the backup singers when mariah was singing her high parttt
god they should really not sing it if they cant
no offence though
@fukiwow 21
Woah, lol the chorus is lipped... She still the best though!
Trey lorenz
when she wears earrings...she looks like a married woman haha...no offense but i love mimi more in the 90's than today....but this song makes me love her in present times...i mean people should write songs from their hearts and within past and present experiences not about partying and why you love FRIDAY..HAHAHA
