And to think that some people in that audience didn't even know who she was at this point cuz she was still so new I can just picture Whitney Houston sitting at home watching this on TV and saying oh hell no oh no she didn't time to step up my game ( The Voice ) ( The SongBird ) ..... Years later = "When you believe " by both Angels
Sirenity Winfield Apparently she did because Whitney had better stage presence and better live performances than Mariah. Damn near every Whitney performance she was by herself a mic a spotlight and her voice.
Just ❤Mariah. No hair and make-up team, no nips and tucks, no fancy clothes, just a simple black dress, curly hair, mic and that voice that's like gospel. I love to revisit these times. We had no idea of who she was. We just loved her voice. 🌸
Mariah Carey was the FIRST FEMALE music artist to sell more albums than Elvis without social media, streaming, music apps, World Wide Web, or cell phones.
@@chicklit8604 thats a ridiculous lie. Thriller is the best selling album of all times. It’s still selling to this day. Elvis never achieved Mj’s level of albums that are sold greatly. Even the billboard admitted to faking elvis’s sales and charts after his passing.
I remember this like it was yesterday. I was 10 when I saw this and I crushed on her so hard. Asked my mom to buy me her album and my mom freaked out lol
I watched this live, 12 years old. I remember it exactly, everything about these few minutes is as clear today as it was then. I was speechless for a long time. Absolutely phenomenal.
having a self titled debut album is so risky cus nobody knows you, but i totally understand why she named herself after the album. everyone was gonna know her name after that album because it’s extremely a strong debut. really impressive.
So many talented people out there, but every once in a long while someone comes along that turns their talents into magic. I'm so thankful that i got to grow up with this amazing woman's voice and music making life more bearable, thank you Mariah 💖
Jessica Anastasia her newer music is trash and her performance is trash too because u know she lip syncs now she has a talent of destroying American idol but either then that she ain’t talent no more
Saw this sitting in my apt in high school on Sunday night. Always knew MC gonna be big star after this performance. Wow ! Been a huge fan since to say the least. Love you MC !
Why do people cant accept that although whitney had an incredible voice and talent so close to Mariah Mariah’s voice was in the 90’s and nearly 2000’sbetter than any singer alive and dead … she really knew how to handle all of her wide range and make flawless live performances even tho many times she struggled with nodules but Mariah’s voice was unparalleled and that is why people chose her as the best voice of the world in 2005 because she simply is so whitney is amazing but Mariah is a step above
Despite all high level in musical abilities of hers ... Carey has proven so many things very difficult to come at this point of time. Only time has already proven that she just has had true spirit of legendary.
Reading her memoirs. East coast rich snobs are the worst. They are the manure this beautiful flower of talent rose above and beyond. Good for you, Mariah.
Good performance, I enjoy the mid belts here the most. The one she did with the red dress on this same show was better in terms of the melisma's near the end tho.
I literally remember where I was and what I was doing when I first heard this on the radio, it was a, “who is this chick” moment, I was driving on a Navy base in Puerto Rico 1990, I was 24, I’m 54 now.😫❤️😂

My wife and I were sitting in the front row on this show when Arsenio introduced her! It was amazing!!
i envy you....
Did you take pictures?
OMG. Realy? I can't believe it.
Such a phenomenal artist 💖 wow!
@@zaimonatalia6757 it was 1990😭 I doubt it
So jaw dropping. The crowd had no idea what they were about to get hit with.
Her voice is BEYOND angelic.
Whew girl you could tell the nerves were present, but she still freaking KILLED IT! As usual.
Its like she's getting used to riding a unicorn. Pure magic.
@@scottkaskey6622 you summed it up nicely lol, pure magic indeed.
And she WRITES all of her amazing music. Such a talent! ❤

Mike VINNY ACTUALLY Whitney always liked mariah from the very beginning♡
Lol I can agree with u!!🙌 Whitney waz on top
Unlike Mariah Whitney was a solo performer she didn't need all the backup on that stage to bring down the house.
TheOne And Only Mariah doesn’t need backup either sweetie.

Facts. It is estimated more than 1 billion Elvis records have been sold worldwide, more than anyone in record industry history.
That’s absolutely the truth 🥰
SHE'S BEYOND ANY ARTIST OUT THERE LIVING or NON-LIVING!!!!!!!!!!!

This sounds like Ms Mariah Carey was always up there brilliant born for music smashed it & we are “ eternally grateful “
the first time I heard vision of love I was blown away.
She came out totally a Megastar... Very humble and full of visions ❤️
I remember this like it was yesterday. I was 10 when I saw this and I crushed on her so hard. Asked my mom to buy me her album and my mom freaked out lol
Why did she freak out?
Why did she freak out ????
Camilizer back then people thought it was "gay" or weird if you were a guy that listened to female artists
@@malibupromqueen they still do
@@malibupromqueen thats changed now at least in more progressive places (i live in Southern California)
Her first performance professionally, woooow, such a star 🌟 🤩
So much fire in her eyes, focus, dedication and spirit. And The Voice. Beautiful.
The greatest vocalist of all time
Jeff Buckley gets that title for me I think
♥️
No stop. Whitney Houston is the greatest
Listen to whitney houston sing "didn't we almost have it all" Live. Mariah is good no doubt but what a powerful and beautiful tone Whitney had.
@@Drew-be5dh No she never was
This might be her best 1990 "so faithfully" F5 attempt. So free and clean
I watched this live, 12 years old. I remember it exactly, everything about these few minutes is as clear today as it was then. I was speechless for a long time. Absolutely phenomenal.
Mariah sounded brilliant, her timing and interpretation was on point, a great performance
Why can't you just watch the performance without judging it🙄
@@kennettabradford6566they said it was good????
When I heard her do this I was smitten what a beautiful voice. she took my breath away
I remember this. I remember seeing this song debut on MTV and knew she was going to be a HUGE SUPERSTAR!!
She made her national television debut singing “Vision of Love” on Arsenio’s show. It wasn’t MTV.🙂
I think her first appearance on the was when she sang america the beautiful
Ginx Mesalaz that was her first televised whistle note
the america the beautiful performance wasn't until about a month later in june.
Rashaad Perry hajaajhaah im sorry XD i barely remember that i replied on this
According to the dates. America the Beautiful was second.
Man i was only 7yrs old when she did this performance😱 and til this day she still 🔥🔥🔥
you can just imagine hearing this beautiful voice for the first time i would faint in the audience- 😭
I saw this and was blown away. I’ve never heard another breakout so phenomenal.
having a self titled debut album is so risky cus nobody knows you, but i totally understand why she named herself after the album. everyone was gonna know her name after that album because it’s extremely a strong debut. really impressive.
THE BEST DEBUT.....EVER!!! by any artiste....better debut than even Whitney, Céline and Xtina. Simply mind blowing!!
@@royestondsouza4069 It's not better than the Miseducation of Lauryn Hill as far as debut albums
She named the album after herself, not the other way around. 😅
But she was sheer perfection here! My favourite Mariah Carey song ever!
the magic happened because she could back it up all the way to saturn
Her music makes you feel
Shes very special
The legend started from there.
at 2:42. that sweet destiny..... amazing
incredible!1!!~`
So many talented people out there, but every once in a long while someone comes along that turns their talents into magic. I'm so thankful that i got to grow up with this amazing woman's voice and music making life more bearable, thank you Mariah 💖
Mariah Carey's is great
@@Daffyduck1988 yup,you are a duck and MC still is a Queen.
Jessica Anastasia her newer music is trash and her performance is trash too because u know she lip syncs now she has a talent of destroying American idol but either then that she ain’t talent no more
Milo Pas the queen of what ? Lol
Jessica Anastasia how I’m I disrespecting women when I’m stating an opinion
@@Daffyduck1988 I bet you couldn't outsing even her worst vocal performances
I remember watching this as a little girl I was so lucky to experience this 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Saw this sitting in my apt in high school on Sunday night. Always knew MC gonna be big star after this performance. Wow ! Been a huge fan since to say the least. Love you MC !
When I first heard this song and the video. Mariah always been one of my favorites ❤️
A once in a lifetime voice!! My all time favorite voice
And the world was never the same
The living legendary icon was born
2024 still a fan ❤
Seeing her nervous behavior from being so new to performing really does put a smile on my face
The greatest singer in the world ❤❤❤
Incredible ♥️
My queen LEGEND!! Omggggg yasss!
❤❤❤❤ the best singer ❤️❤️❤️❤️ forever Mariah Carey

She came out the gates our head with vision of love
I’m here wile reading her beautiful memoir 🥰❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻☮️☮️☮️☮️😘😘😘😘love this lady with all my soul 💋💋❤️❤️❤️

Was by far her best ever be4 all the managers agents and blood hungry record executives
THIS is her FIRST TV APPEARANCE?!!! Christ, whoever watched this must’ve had a heart attack.
Despite all high level in musical abilities of hers ... Carey has proven so many things very difficult to come at this point of time. Only time has already proven that she just has had true spirit of legendary.
Her first appearance shookt me im on her I'll be there on thanksgiving im one of the kids there
Lucky you! I always wondered how was it to be in there seeing her sing so close!
TELL ME YOUR EXPERIENCE! 😍
First Tv appearance was America The Beautuful. 💕 (first talk show & live performance of Vision though)
ynnhojhairam nope the first appearance was this, america the beautiful was in june this was in may
Her voice is so fresh, like no nodules ever existed?
You can see her nodules take place already in 1991 more so after Daydream tour :[
She had nodles since she was a kid
She has nodes since a child maybe it aggravated so easilly because of poor lifestyle and demand in Hollywood for her.
i swaer im making a making a meme about thee misspelled serious conversation ☠️
Her nodules actually sound very visible in her first year imo
The. ACTUAL. FUCKING. G.O.A.T! Why She gets no Love in the Hall of Fame... I'll NEVER understand.
She will be inducted.
So many artists, after Mariah came out, have also had their first Albums with only their name or at least their first name. 🥰
Mariah + Whitney + Paula Abdul, Boyz II Men... this is what I grew up listening to.
Plus Celine Dion. I Miss this era so much 😢
She just wanted to sing and she got it❤️
She came to slay!!!! Love you MC!!! ❤️
Arsenio Hall was talking with Howard Stern in an interview 2 days ago about this moment.
It's been 30 years today!!
I remember him introducing her saying your a great crowd you deserve Mariah Carey - another time she really brought it on his show I love her so much
I will always love you mariah
3:36 how her lips move
It's a vocal technique. Barbara Streisand use that. Well, mariah's mom is a vocal coach.
@@reinas9666 It’s just a lip twitch due to her intense focus for hitting that note. (It does nothing to benefit her voice, technically)
@@jazznotes3802 nope. It a technique to produced vibrato
@@Funky32g There is no technique with the lip, as vibrato isn’t created like that.
So effortless
i love her completely
Audience was already cheering loudly before she even finished
thank you for sharing :)
Legend
Very beautiful, tremendous, stupendous, 👍, and 😊
marvelous
Она одна такая!!❤
unbeliev.......
Espectacular 👌
Reading her memoirs. East coast rich snobs are the worst. They are the manure this beautiful flower of talent rose above and beyond. Good for you, Mariah.
Happened to catch this on TV at the time: Time Stopped.
30 years in the game
Good performance, I enjoy the mid belts here the most. The one she did with the red dress on this same show was better in terms of the melisma's near the end tho.

Awwwww
Really.....Awwwwww! Lol
This should have more views
MARIAH.. 🌺🌺🌺
I was in the U.S. Army stationed in Uijongbu Korea when this came out. Missing home just like that
Amazing.. can't wait to see you for the first time in Manila
Such a talent
Meu orgulho!!!!! 😍😍😍
One thing even her haters would agree “The girl can slay/saanggg the whole planet down”
I watched this live and thought holy shit. The vocals are amazing.
Queen
Iloveyoumariah
Damn the slayage was real!!
Phenomenal.
❤my angle
I think every living soul was blown away when they first heard Vision of Love.
If they had 1v1 singer battles, nobody would want to battle Mariah.
Whitney Houston. Patti LaBelle. Those are her heroes,tho.
I miss this Mariah.
Wooooow!!
MARIAH
WHITNEY
CELINE
VOCAL TRINITY 💅
As a woman I don't give two nickles what she wears or how her body looks. Gladys, Aretha, Patti (and all others)... just sing and thank you ladies!
WOW!!
