      Exactly, but I love Whitney, but lets face the fact Mariah 's songs are harder than Whitney's.Not only the whistles, the frequent switch of registers in and out: forever (does not have whistle, but requires a lot of stamina and agility),if it's over (requires almost all your belting range like doing F#5 chest dominant belts then immediately switch into an A6 whistle in a second then go into a whole series of 4 consecutive F#5 belts with precision (she did perfectly only once and that was the Grammy's 1992), vanishing, Make it happen (you incredible belting range unless you would faint before you finish the song, Emotions (belting range from C3-G5 adding the the whistles(E7) makes 4 octaves, and she only did the G5 belt once in 1992 in "you got me(G5)"it was in des Connor (but she did not do the final whistle) and many others....

      Well, you're right, among all singers on the list her most difficult songs are the most difficult to sing, and the others on the list couldn't. But as always (and it's kinda understanable of course) that list is only about the most famous (mainly US) pop singers. And there are literally millions of singers whose discography Mariah couldn't sing. And some of them could sing hers though.
      Just a few examples: Dimash (who's mainly a classical crossover singer but sings in basically all genres, whose range isG0 - D8), Kyo from Dir en Grey (who's mainly an avantgarde metal singers but sings in almost all genres, whose range is E1 - G#7) and Adam Lopez (who's mainly a pop singer (and voice teacher at university) but sings in several genres, whose range is Bb1 - Eb8). And all of them have an amazing whistle register, a significantly bigger range than Mariah and use many vocal techniques (or in Dimash's and Kyo's case a really enormous amount) that Mariah cannot do). And fun fact: Adam Lopez actually does sing Mariah's most difficult songs at his live shows, but makes them even harder by e.g. expanding their range even more

    I would still rather put Mariah #1. Though difficult, Whitney songs are more singable than Mariah's due to myriad of techniques agility, and melisma. It's not just the whistle which make her songs more challenging, but the constant switch from airy to high melodies that make them quite unique. But I don't want to discredit Whitney, just that this list was about most number of songs that are challenging in the artist's discography.

    I feel Amy Lee should have at least been an honorable mention. Not only is she an absolute powerhouse, she has the most hauntingly beautiful voice. I don’t know many singers that put every ounce of emotion in all of their songs. I feel that makes her songs difficult to sing.

    Yes, exactly. I completely agree with this list! Whitney Houston has the most difficult songs to sing. The way she sung her songs so casually and with ease makes you think it's simple to sing along, but really, it isn't.

Comedy aside (and she *was* hilarious!), her vocals were stunning and matched both of those singers.

      You’re not bright either. This list is definitely not about how legendary your songs are. It’s about singers whose songs are hardest to sing. Songs of the singers on the list are definitely hard. Especially Mariah Carey’s songs that are like unnatainable to sing. Mariah and Whitney are surely way more legendary than Freddie who had never won any Grammys.

      She's not popular enough, and she doesn't have many hard songs other than How Can I Ease the Pain. Although she's one of the greatest singer of all time, the technique, vibrato and agility, the stamina... It's beyond mainstream singers such as Mariah, Beyoncé, Adele, Christina, Ariana, Aretha!

    With all due respect to my American friends, I think the Celine Dion case is a typical "American" misunderstanding. The average American audience, are the same people who believe Europe is located in France and the World Cup is an American event, among many other misconceptions. This is clear in many American talent shows, where any singer who belts, screams, or wails is deemed a "good singer," regardless of technique, emotion, or texture. As soon as a singer hits a high note, even if it's squeaky or shouty, they push their buzzers or turn their chairs. The focus is more on the "entertainment" rather than "talent".
    In my opinion, for the majority of the superficial American audience, Celine Dion's magnificence is simply incomprehensible. To be fair, this isn't the case for all Americans, but it certainly applies to many. I'm confident that most maestros, especially Celine's peers in the Vocal Trinity, would agree.
