    Can we take a moment to notice that Luther is so skilled that he knows Mariah’s ability to run in time with the song and he lets her go off and follows thru with an answer back after almost every line. It’s such a huge testament to her ability as well to make any song that isn’t written by her, sound like she wrote it and sang it herself originally. A POWERFUL union of two elite minds

      @JoE_Songs 4 місяці тому +12

      Dude. Don't be overly dramatic and ridiculous. Mariah Carey's debut album came out in 1990 - 4 years earlier. She was already a huge star. It was a collaboration on eye-level at minimum. One could even argue that Vandross refreshed himself with this collab. He was 43 and she 25. Nobody introduced her to the world in 1994 - she did that herself in 1990 already. She entirely wrote the album together with Ben Margulies and was even a co-producer, which is - to this day - very unusual for a 19 year old.
      She was already a HUGE superstar in 94. She had already written and published 3 albums that (in '94) had sold 48 million times. Vandross sold in his entire lifetime 25 Million.
      So calm down with the pathos. lol

    You can tell Mariah is an Alto here with her first verse . She truly have learnt to sing higher than her natural voice which is remarkable. Her vocal placement here is also out of this world. You can feel her resonance from her upper face during the climax of the song.

      Mariah is really respectful when she is with someone on a stage she would never overshadow Luther at his concert, she deeply respected Luther, her microphone is also lowered a semitone from his for this reason. But I noticed that instead if she is at one of her concerts then the music changes, and sings normally without holding back, aside from when he was with Michael Bolton at his concerts, totally outsing him without even trying, but I think she wanted to get noticed there, and her voice was so big that it would have been impossible not to overshadow Michael.

A stunningly handsome man with the smoothest beautiful voice who was taken far far too soon. A long time fan, live I was overjoyed to fine he sounded exactly the same as, if not better than, on CD (shows you how long ago it was 😂) and he moved me to tears. Undoubtedly, my favourite male artist of all time. This duo was a dream come true for me as Mariah was one of my favourite female artists.

      That's why she is the golden standard. And she's also the reason why we have pop hiphop collab. She's the ultimate crossover artist. Well it's because she was early exposed from classical to hiphop.
