She wrote this song over 4 years.. such a masterpiece.
The album version is even more vocally reserved than this live version. Equally as emotional. Lambs love these Rosie O’Donnell interviews and performances. She also did Petals on this show a couple years later. Another Mariah recommendation would be Vision of Love (2005 BET Blueprint).
YASSS TO ALL!!!
Hello TRAMPY dress!
👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY!
I always found her Rosie interviews much more real than other talk show hosts apart from Oprah maybe 😀
@@CJWahanui Aside from her Oprah interview about her Memoir, I always feel like Oprah isn't really listening and eager to cut her off talking over her. Which I don't understand because during her interview with her and Whitney, she was much more respectful to Nippy and allowed her to finish her fucking sentence and would respond to it as opposed to going off on her own tangent.
She’ssssss back, been missing the Mariah Reactions 🙏🏾
Same!!!
This is one of her most favourite song out of her entire discography according to her ❤️
This song right here is the reason why she was just inducted in the songwriters hall of fame. She can draw out the most painful and excruciating emotions all the while singing like a songbird.
It's her most introspective album and song in my opinion. This song
helped me go through a difficult period in my life. Butterfly
is very close to my heart.
Me too
Same.
I love this song. She looks and sounds so angelic. Wow! Butterfly is hands down my fave Mariah album. Not one bad song on it. IMO
Tbh I used to hate her cover "The Beautiful Ones" but now it's actually one of my favs ☺
Yaanna Brecka same
@@maryamtara2934 Like I'd think like... if a song has more than 5 mins I'd get bored and not to listen to the whole thing, but one day I decided to give it a try and I ended up enjoying so much and so now I always wanna listen to everything from the beginning till the end
Yaanna Brecka OMG!!! I swear that’s exactly me😂😂 the same happened to the Fourth of July (now it’s in my top 20)
@@maryamtara2934 Ok sis I see you
👁👄👁💅, actually I always loved Fourth of July tho, it's like butter in my ears ☺ and loved it bc it kinda makes me remind of Underneath the Stars
Edit: This will kinda blow your mind but the song I hated the most/didn't enjoy much from her was The Roof 😳 I actually enjoyed Mariah's parts but the rap part in the Official Video wasn't it, but now I mess with it although I prefer the solo version 😅
It's bittersweet that such a brilliant and beautiful soul got hurt many times since she was a child, but like she said "... To anyone who's ever told me a song i wrote helped save your life, i thank you, because you saved mine."
I was missing the Mariah Carey reactions good to see ya back bro 👌🏻
I'm glad you love Butterfly as much as I do! This is one of my favorite songs on that album. "Still I feel like a child as I look at the moon, maybe I grew up a little too soon.." line gets me everytime. 😢
The writing process of Close My Eyes happened when Mariah was leaving the house she used to live with her ex husband, Tommy Mottola. She even jokes when referring to this house as "sing sing" because that was the only thing she used to do and the only thing she grasped to it when living there. When thinking about the song, she first was reflecting on her life and the first part of the song represents that. What we could certainly say is that Mariah was exposed to lots of things that most children do not encounter while growing up, so Close My Eyes is definitely a compilation of the emotions and situations this woman has encountered throughout her life. Also, Mariah has said that this was the first song that she started the writing process, stopped it and came back to it after a while. So this song is a representation of some years of growth and maturation.
If I’m not mistaken, it took her years to finish writing this song.
The song is actually a few seconds longer. It's a very personal lyrics. It's kinda picture of herself and her childhood. I think somehow Mariah will always have a song that is a mirror of some moment of our lives. That's why I stan!
Love and peace! 🇧🇷
Love the reaction. Definitely a very personal and intimate song.
I just love this song...
Yes yes yes. This is one of my favorite Mariah songs especially this live performance. This was in 1997. Great lyrics. Can you react to "I am free" and "Looking in" it's from her Daydream album.
Love the fact that she changed the lyrics from "Thankfully I" to " Thank God I". ❣❣❣
With songs like this and lyrics like this, “And I learned many things little ones shouldn’t know”..... The anticipation for this Memoir, “The Meaning of Mariah Carey” is just sky high. She may have been writing about watching her sister prostitute herself. Later she writes in this song, “I left the worst unsaid”. Huh. Her music. Her words. And now we are getting, Her Story. I just can’t wait. 🌻💜
Mariah killed this performance small performances are normally very intimate and the crowd is amazing and chill🙏🏻💙 I was waiting for these reactions glad you got to them thank you jack❤️
Have you done "Joyride" yet?!?! That song is PERFECTION!!!!!!!!
This is one of her most beloved songs. She actually sings it in head voice in the original record but in here she belts most of it. Lyrics are perfect and the producing of the song is unique you don't hear many songs like that. The bridge is very unique. The way she sings it makes it sound a bit like Daydream album. Her whisper register became more evident after Butterfly so the original version fits better with 4th of July, The Roof and Beautiful ones.
Even hoarse her voice is angelic!
Do her version of Beautiful Ones by Prince
Omg her and sisqo LITERALLY killed this song!! One of my faves of all time
Pretty sure that the lambily is proud that you've gotten to know Mariah's discography at this point. Love that you love her. :)
I agree, I def think her best singing is done where it’s a small venue or very intimate!!
I LOVE CLOES MY EYES FSDLKADSFF thanks for checking this out!!! I really believe you should also check out "It's a Wrap" and "Subtle Invitation" by Mariah reading the lyrics. Those songs are their own genre to me, honestly. Such art! lol
Jack, your facial reactions are the best!... when you were liking the lyrics!! 😂🙌🏻
One of my favorite most personal songs from her.
Hi! In the studio version she originally used all falsetto/whisper voice while here she did mostly in chest voice here
And I understandood why she rathered that way because when I tried to cover it it was really difficult to sing in all falsetto and around the near end my voice was kinda tired already!
THATS WHY I LOVE MARIAH SO MUCH BECAUSE CONTROL !!! IMAGINE SHE'S BEEN USING ALL THESE REGISTERS IN DAYDREAM ERA!!!
Next live performance by Mariah you should react to is I don't want to cry, tokyo dome 1996! An experience!
One of her best songs. Just poetry in every sense of the word. Great video, glad you finally heard it. Mariahs "Al I Ever Wanted" next plz
Check this out

And oh yeah Mariah does thrive more in an intimate setting. She is more comfortable and more vocally relaxed especially when she is singing for the lambs. Glad you were able to notice that.
One of my fave songs ever! MC is always superb! 25th year anniversary of the Butterfly album this year!
One of her most beautiful songs. I particularly love the rendition of this song from her butterfly tour. She sings it looking at some pictures of her childhood on a big screen. ♥️
Mariah’s Daydream album is the vibes... butterfly could never!
Lyrically, Butterfly is better.
Vocally, Daydream is better.
THAT WAS GORGEOUS, Even better than the studio performance. Thanks jack for reintroducing me to this gem!
HI JACK YOU can purchase her book her memoir that she has written it will be out and available in September or October this year. Just imagine how much we will all learn from her. It's already available for pre order. Pls support our Queen and know her better through her story.
Butterfly is my fave album of hers too, followed by Daydream. It's also Mariah's favorite album and Close My Eyes happens to be one of her favorite, if not her favorite, song she's ever recorded
Please react to "Long Ago" Jack! - Im begging you! 🙏
yes Long Ago and When I saw you the two he hasn't done from this album
@Haiji Toro yes long ago and the roof do sound alike
This is my favorite song by her hands down
Yasssssss the butterfly album is my favourite too. The taste darling👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽🦋🦋🦋🦋
This song has saved lives!!!! Mine included!🙏🏾
This song makes me cry, I relate so much to this song. Thanks for this, Jack
I love the butterfly album too
All of her songs in this album is the best
Adult, introspective, soulful, bittersweet, grateful, profound, wistful, focused, brilliant Mariah found in Close My Eyes ....
The lyrics things a child should never learn she is realeasibg her memoir in September where she will reveal a lot Mariah has lived a hard life but she has overcome
She started writing the song in 1993
This is one of my favourite songs of all time!!
This is my favorite MC song EVER. Great reaction!
Yeeees!! Mariah Carey again 💪🏼✨
Hey Jack! react to Till the end of time! it's such an Amazing ballad
we love your Mariah reactions so much! Thank you and keep up the amazing work.
I love this performance and butterfly is really something untouched
I love these lyrics
I really love this song.. So so much.
Please react to " angel's cry" ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very good Jack, you’ve taken on board about the voice which I said in a previous comment. You’ve mentioned about the different types of registers, well done.👍🏽😊
Love you kiddo.... please keep reacting baby doll. This is my fave song
Mariah is just amazing♥️
Butterfly may not have been the "Blockbuster " that Daydream or Music Box were BUT it is her MAGNUM OPUS. Mariah herself also stated that the Butterfly album is her personal favorite ( and arguably she was at her most vulnerable after her divorce from Tommy Mattola)
Imagine Walter Afanasieff had the nerve to say the album sounded unfinished production wise. He was and is salty Mariah ditched him I guess. The album is a masterpiece
Just noticed, you haven't done a reaction to Mariah outside your car lol
This song saved my life. Literally. I played this song over and over again. I cried everytime. More so tears of relief because I felt like “Finally!!! Someone who feels like exactly the way I do.” NOW, Jack, Jack, Jack! Lol 😂 May I suggest not pausing during live performances. It’s kinda takes away from the feeling of the moment.
Have you checked out her recent debut release? It's sooo good!
One my favorite from the Butterfly album!!
Jack, I want to watch you react to Mariah’s music with earbuds in that way you can get the FULL effect!! Great React!!
Yes, Jack!!!! Butterfly is likely my favorite album ever!!!!
Check this out

This is one of the most beautifully written songs in the Butterfly album.
Those are her OWN backing vocals being played in the back and her background singers are taking harmonies but Mariah is the lead texture in the background vocals !!!!
The "what's up UA-cam I'm Jack" always gives me chills!!!
You should react to petals/rainbow interlude live
You should react to Christina Aguilera’s live performances as well. Her Walk Away performance at The Late Show with David Letterman in 2004 in particular is a one of a kind.
Please react to Diamonds and Pearls by the Legendary Prince 💜
Or Gett Off 😏
Rainha da Voz
❤️❤️❤️❤️
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 you need to review Music Box and All I’ve Ever Wanted too. Pure masterpieces !!!!
Yesss jack tnx more plzzzz
6:10 - 6:20 OMG MARIAH MADE YOU SING!!!!
The power of the Queen.❤️❤️
I love how Jack loves Close my eyes, it’s one of my favorites, also the butterfly album IS my favorite album (because it’s amazing and it was released in 97 the year i was born)😂
Could you please react to Till the end of time (curly haired Mariah) Please 🥺
Hello from Canada. Bro, you must check out a song called "Don't stop funkin for Jamaica" is from her movie soundtrack. It's a A+ song. The beat is insanely good.
😭😭😭😭...👑
You gotta gotta gotta get to the MUSIC BOX album. 90’s recording sound, so good, and if you want to hear her sing the very definition of a power ballad (that she wrote of course) listen to “All I’ve Ever Wanted”. Nobody else could sing that song like that. I hope you find time to react to it 🎶❤️
I love her makeup and ensemble here she looked like a snack 😍
i think its very good for him to react to Mariah once in awhile now...
Love it! ✌🏼
My favorite song and my favorite CD....Whitney the greatest female singer. Mariah the greatest female artist.
So when are you reacting to boy i need you by mariah, king?
Yesss
Mariah live performance suggestions: Against All Odds (The View, 1999) & Petals (Rainbow Tour, 2000). It’s the one labeled “Mariah Carey - Petals (Live)” when you search it up.
Love this one ❤️ Also if you can react to The Roof from the same Butterfly album
We really need a MC album reaction series....I wanna see a Betcha Gon Know reaction
Omg can you react to Mariah Carey My All (live in Italy) !!! So effortless!!🙂🙂🙂
Nice reaction, Jack! I'd love you to listen to Camouflage made by the queen MIAMriah 😍🤧
Vision of Love live - BET Blueprint? :)
Charlene Anthony Hamilton 💯
