    Here’s the thing about Mariah: She’s one of the few artists who dislike signing off key. Either she sings on key mostly or not sing at all. Unfortunately, it has taken a toll on her voice. She’s a perfectionist...

    • @chanellopezzzz
      @chanellopezzzz 4 роки тому +8

      wym? She has vocal nodules... and when you’re the biggest artist for 10 years your voice obviously will be strained. All that being said she still sings better than 98% of the industry and has a better technique than all of them

    • @entrainson7208
      @entrainson7208 4 роки тому +9

      Sarah Parker Yea. Constantly singing mostly in original key is going to take a toll especially if she’s doing it 2 decades years. Our voice changes as we age. And so her trying to stay on key will definitely put a lot of pressure on her chords. Most singers improvise or drop an octave when singing their earlier songs simply because they can’t do it anymore like before. Regardless, that’s Mariah Carey. She hates singing off key. There are clips of her correcting her background singers even at the beginning of her career. Wish she didn’t have to push herself too much.

    I love that she used a fellow mixed race actor as her love (Wentworth Miller). She always knew how to do it right. And the older handsome AF dude is Eric Roberts (older brother of Julia Roberts). She's wearing the dress she wore to her wedding to Mottola, and her leaving him at the altar is a reflection of what she felt she SHOULD have done instead of marrying Mottola.

    I saw in one of your videos that you like old school rnb! Well Mariah Carey has essentially a trilogy of 70s rnb inspired, Minnie Riperton-esque ballads entitled “Underneath The Stars”, “Fourth of July”, and “Bliss.” They all don’t have music videos but I highly recommend them. The atmospherical and ethereal songwriting + vocals on those songs is heavenly! I’d recommend starting off with “Underneath The Stars.” 😊

  • @captainbryce1
    @captainbryce1 4 роки тому +1

    Fun fact about this song: the last sustained note that she hits in the song came about because after she wrote it and tried singing it the first time, she didn’t know how to end the song. She wasn’t sure what kind of ad libs or outtro would work, so she just held the last note until the song faded out and that became the song.

    Biggest comeback song in music history. Put Rnb atop of the charts and she made it stay in #1 for 14 weeks in the Billboard hot 100. This song also blocked her third single from the album Shake it off. That made her the first artist in history to hold the #1 and #2 position at the BB hot 100 simultaneously. This is technically considered her most successful song with All I want for Christmas is you and One Sweet day. Hahaha the old dude in this video is Julia Robert's brother. It also has one of the most complicated arrangements in her entire repertoire. Fun fact. The wedding dress is her first real dress with Tommy Mottola former head of Sony Music. She was gonna burn it but then decided not to for the nostalgia. You need to watch the live performance of this song at the Bet awards (different arrangement than the original) and at the MTV movie awards

    JD was also ome of the writers of the song...I can not recall the third person name who was the third writer on it.
    MC comes from the era where the build up of the song all the way to bridge on a song is gospel and the song can not go without that,even on her ballads....every verse every note is felt...the words mean something,its speaks to the listener and lingers.
    She is definately my second favorite writer after Babyface...just for the way they write the songs, where the songs take preference over the artist singing it.❤
