    You should listen to the whole Butterfly album. It's an emotional masterpiece. I think you'll like the harmonies in Fourth of July

    She wrote the lyrics all herself & helped compose the song. One of her most personal songs.

    Mariah has songs like 'Petals', 'Outside', 'Looking In', 'My Saving Grace', 'Through The Rain', 'and countless more that are so inspiring, that she wrote! She wrote an interlude that I listen to everyday to gets me through the day aka 'Rainbow Interlude'. ❤ Mariah is seriously the Queen of Music because her discography is unmatched

    She wrote and produced this song. It is a song very personal to her and her lambily. The lyrics are sent to her from heaven directly to make people struggling to identify with it

    • @estebanrada3081
      @estebanrada3081 7 лет назад

      Can you explane me what is the song about? I don't get it

    • @dafuture93
      @dafuture93 7 лет назад +19

      esteban rada basically Mariah is talking about the trauma of her childhood and the defense mechanism she developed in response to cope "growing numb to the madness, blocking it away" and to move forward "close my eyes, steady my feet on the ground raise my head to the sky" the first part of the song is reflective, sad and depicts how she almost lost herself. The second half of the song is about how her faith and inner strength "woke her up in time" to escape the inner turmoil that was bringing her down. While the lyrics of the second half of the song are positive and uplifting. The song still remains in a melancholy, somber place. For one she states she'll never feel "quite stable". My personal interpretation is that although she's come through those bad times stronger, she's still sad for the little girl in her that had to "grow up too soon" and the scars that will never fully heal. Which is why the song never truly takes an upbeat turn although there's an obvious shift lyrically. Sorry for the long explanation lol hope that helps :)

    @damianjo910 7 лет назад +3

    One of my favourite songs from her and it has helped me through so much...her music does that to you, it transcends you to a place of solitude where you just sit and think. The piano at the beginning and throughout was just pure magic. I am still sad this was not released as a single.

    Mariah's Butterfly era has some of my favorite songs ever in it! Her voice was a force! Melisma became her nickname from me with the Butterfly album in general. You're so right, Mariah is a genius and a strongly underrated songwriter! Would love to see you react to more tracks from Butterfly. 'Fourth of July' & 'Outside' are my favorites lyrically and vocally.

  • @chrisofmelbourne87

    This song is one of my favourites from Mariah Carey and in 2000, when my great-grandmother passed, I listened to this song to escape and not be sad. Lovely song and one of the best of Mariah (If not the best). Nice reaction as always man, hello from Australia 😁😁

    • @kvnsns82
      @kvnsns82 6 лет назад +12

      Here is the quote: I spent four years writing this song, only because after I performed in Schenectady, NY, I started hearing this melody and singing it over and over to myself as I was taking a bath, looking at the moon.. Four years later, as I was leaving a devastating part of my life behind, I wrote the second verse, the bridge and the outro.
