I LOVE that she changed the styling of her voice for this song to sound like her her voice is fluttering like a butterfly. She is not only creative but her voice is gift that can reflect her musical styling.
I've never noticed until hearing this acapella, but she literally flutters her voice through every phrase on this song. Even the belts like "I I I (will know you're mine)" @ 3:04 but it's literally [e v e r y w h e r e]. It's not even just vibrato but an undulation. "It's e-e-easy to-o-o su-u-cumb to o-o-overhwhelming fears i-i-ins-i-i-i-i-ide." Beautifully executed.
i totally get this. i've become so used to her hitting E5's, F5's, F#5's so effortlessly live that i forget that these notes are high and hard for others to belt, let alone phrase it like how she usually does.
At 3:47 you can hear her whistle slightly come through when she sings falsetto!!! Even the rasp, breaks and slight cracks in her voice are heavenly! A gift from God and a once in a lifetime kind of voice! What other singer possesses the ability to sing in every register and actually execute them, plus the effortless runs and melismas! My God Mariah's voice is truly an angelic instrument and the fact that she writes and cowrites and coproduces most of her own music makes her a true artist/musician! Her songs are timeless classics that touch the heart and soul! There will never be another Mariah Carey❤️
IMO this is her voice at its prime. Not to mention the silky breathy voice, and how her whistle register can be heard occasionally without her permission. Lol.
Exactly. Her voice is building up at this point in the song towards the bridge, where she truly unleashes vocal gymnastic skills, namely her sustained notes, intricate runs, and the whistle register. She truly showed all the layers and texture of her voice here.
I think this song has the simplest background vocal arrangement. Knowing Mariah's skills in arranging music, and comparing this song to others which had complex arrangement (i.e. Fly Like A Bird, Without You, Anytime You Need A Friend, to name a few) I think she intended the background vocals to Butterfly that way, which allowed her voice to truly flutter and soar in this song, and it did. She truly showcased all the layers and texture of her voice here, and IMO, I think her voice truly shone in Butterfly, and I think her emotions were truly highlighted in the way she sang the song: her quiet longing which was apparent in her ethereal voice in the First and Second Verses, and her strong resolve to carry on in her belts, sustained chest voice, and ornate runs throughout the Bridge and the Last Chorus, and finally her resignation and optimism in her whispery tone in the last few remaining lines of the song. In one of her interviews she did mention that this is one of her most personal songs, so I think its only appropriate to hear her voice above the background vocals. After all, this is her story she's telling in a song.
Mariah’s voice is in constant vibrato. I don’t even think she realizes it. I noticed this about ten years ago. They are very very subtle and very quiet, but she doesn’t ever produce a straight flat sound.
Navyforeveryoung Jean-Philippe I find that she does tend to now. For example when she sings "I'll Be There" and sings the "juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuust call name" the sustained note is much flatter than when she used to sing it.
her voice was super polyphonic in this recording due to her vocal nodules. I'm sure she used her nodules to her advantage to sing this song. Further proof of her musical genius
ZoeyRush I agree I can hear the effect of the nodules but idk how she belted so clear without strain with the nodules present! It seems she uses the effect the nodules have on the voice to help her whisper since nodules usually make a persons voice more quit. I hear the effect of the nodules most in her falsetto. I feel bad that she has them!
Christine Donley yassss! She started doing that technique a lot during and after this era. Almost like when she does to runs like she partially singing through her nose
Her voice sounds like an orchestra, so melodious and I can hear like a harp and a flute, there are so many different colours and textures in her voice and when she hit that flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy note it was just so perfect and effortless WOW! 🤗💖

It's like she's doing a run within a run, right? Like there's the main run and in between those runs, she layers another run underneath it, only they're like two separate runs but executed together flawlessly at the same time.
A true gifted woman. What a voice! What a talent! God bless you, Mariah. No matter how your voice may be today, you have done so much for music and so much for mankind that you will always be a legend. ❤️
3:45-49 Love the restrain she put on her voice, but her voice won't have it, 'cause you could perfectly notice how her whistle register peeps through the melisma.

Thank you for this wonderful video. Mariah is the best Singer forever. The best singer off the all time. 💗💫💥🙌🏻🙏🏻💝 Fly like a bird acapella? It's a dream! 💗💫💥🙌🏻🙏🏻💝
You've inadvertently solved a mystery for me - 3.10 has always sounded like a stutter to me ("sp-spread") but it's actually just very clearly enunciated ("sp-read") and just sounded funny with the fully-layered version. Now I don't have that nagging thought of "did the cd skip?" in my head anymore when I listen to this song. Thank you!
One could argue that her real talent lies in her ability to arrange the music and her voice into whatever she likes I’m not trying to discredit her vocal cord here but it’s her brain that’s can came out with such a truly masterpiece of music like this.

There will be no other voice like Mariah's. Such a gift!
Ok it was clearly a loaner and not a gift. Cuz it was repossessed 💅
Ommggggg i watch ur vids and I’ve been browsing her music and i didn’t know you were a lamb ilyyyy
Incredible
Yeah, we have Celine Dion
@@jdm0186 girl…. You thought you ate lol💀😭😭😭
I LOVE that she changed the styling of her voice for this song to sound like her her voice is fluttering like a butterfly. She is not only creative but her voice is gift that can reflect her musical styling.
ikr its stunning
Its intentional. Skillfully executed
You’re an actual idiot. I can’t even disect why. Idiot, or SUPER young…. Same shit. 💇🏼♂️

ur an idiot. mariah is the fucking truth and u know it. u suck and u know that too.
justin isbell What are you even saying. lol Did you even read what I wrote?
Just fuck off dork!!!!
justin isbell You must suffer from severe literacy issues but you know what? You love Mariah so you get a pass.
The One Called RJ that might be it! At least, looking for examples of it, it certainly sounds like that's what it is.
This is the voice God worked the most on,
britneyfatale Maaaaaan You Feel Me
Effortlessly
indeed!
jajajajajajajja so much yesssssssssssssss jajaj
One of the best sentiments to Mariah that I ever have seen.
Her E5 doen't sound even that high in her voice. It just sounds so natural for her.
i totally get this. i've become so used to her hitting E5's, F5's, F#5's so effortlessly live that i forget that these notes are high and hard for others to belt, let alone phrase it like how she usually does.
@@mindstone6883 You'll just know how hard it was when other singers sings it.
At 3:47 you can hear her whistle slightly come through when she sings falsetto!!! Even the rasp, breaks and slight cracks in her voice are heavenly! A gift from God and a once in a lifetime kind of voice! What other singer possesses the ability to sing in every register and actually execute them, plus the effortless runs and melismas! My God Mariah's voice is truly an angelic instrument and the fact that she writes and cowrites and coproduces most of her own music makes her a true artist/musician! Her songs are timeless classics that touch the heart and soul! There will never be another Mariah Carey❤️
Love everything you said!!!
Will you be releasing any videos?
At 2:49 her voice is unreal. She flutters through those notes with so much ease. This is the pinnacle of perfection in the human voice.
u r so right about that!
She fluttered... It's over... It breaks my heart, every single time I realize what she's done to her voice...
Omg it's like heaven
IMO this is her voice at its prime. Not to mention the silky breathy voice, and how her whistle register can be heard occasionally without her permission. Lol.
"This is the pinnacle of perfection in the human voice."
Lol chill
The husky parts in 1:45 - 1:49 and 3:45 - 3:49 are so perfect that it can't be real. Love Mariah
Exactly. Her voice is building up at this point in the song towards the bridge, where she truly unleashes vocal gymnastic skills, namely her sustained notes, intricate runs, and the whistle register. She truly showed all the layers and texture of her voice here.

Mariah Carey - Butterfly acapella
I love her breathy voice her whistles
I think this song has the simplest background vocal arrangement. Knowing Mariah's skills in arranging music, and comparing this song to others which had complex arrangement (i.e. Fly Like A Bird, Without You, Anytime You Need A Friend, to name a few) I think she intended the background vocals to Butterfly that way, which allowed her voice to truly flutter and soar in this song, and it did.

In one of her interviews she did mention that this is one of her most personal songs, so I think its only appropriate to hear her voice above the background vocals. After all, this is her story she's telling in a song.
amazingly summed up!
what note is the flawlessly belted "flyYYYYYYYYYYYYYyyYyyy"?
E5
Luigi Mazzini E5
E5 and it's honestly incredible
E5
Mariah’s voice is in constant vibrato. I don’t even think she realizes it. I noticed this about ten years ago. They are very very subtle and very quiet, but she doesn’t ever produce a straight flat sound.
Navyforeveryoung Jean-Philippe I find that she does tend to now. For example when she sings "I'll Be There" and sings the "juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuust call name" the sustained note is much flatter than when she used to sing it.
love hearing her breath so strong and raw at 3:30.
you can hear whistles in her whispers
OMG i thought i was the only one! Its so magical!
hotstuff400 indeed!
her voice was super polyphonic in this recording due to her vocal nodules. I'm sure she used her nodules to her advantage to sing this song. Further proof of her musical genius

It seems she uses the effect the nodules have on the voice to help her whisper since nodules usually make a persons voice more quit. I hear the effect of the nodules most in her falsetto. I feel bad that she has them!
I heard them the first time in the original, but I figured she just geniously decided to add them as background harmonies.
Vocals are impeccable.
Perfect, fascinating, amazing, unique, EVERYTHING!! I love her voice so, so much!! Her tone voice, chest voice, falsetto, whistle... etc.
I love the raspy whispers. That what I love about this era.
They are due to nodules
2:47 OMG! Unreal E5 *.*
Ignacio Vogel kinda sounds like sia for a second
3:31 "*inhales* GOOOOOO-oohoooohoooooooooh" #life
Christine Donley yassss! She started doing that technique a lot during and after this era. Almost like when she does to runs like she partially singing through her nose
ON BIG CHRIST!
This made my day😀. Thanks for the work you spent on this. Mariah's voice is sublime and truly unique!
Aw you're welcome xxx
Nobody sounds like this. Idc how hard they want the next Mariah. Nobody has this connection to the music as well as the notes.
Her voice sounds like an orchestra, so melodious and I can hear like a harp and a flute, there are so many different colours and textures in her voice and when she hit that flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy note it was just so perfect and effortless WOW! 🤗💖
this is paradise. 😍 her voice pierces through your soul.
this is flawless
2:55-2:57 That was so fast.
***** I can only dream to be that fast in singing runs. xD
It's 2 different takes merged together...
that was really fast and hard to duplicate
Only mariah can
That's why the background singer sings that part. Because it's overlapped in the studio
The climax alone blows away any version of the song!!!
The Greatest Vocalist in The World! The Most gifted Songwriter of all time!
i'm here for this. what a wonderful vocal..
색우 here for you :)
When you love someone so deeply
They become your life
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
Blindly I imagined I could
Keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you
I must open up my hands
And watch you rise
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly, oh
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled
Or their spirit dies
You have given me the courage
To be all that I can
And I truly feel your heart will
Lead you back to me when you're
Ready to land
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly, oh
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were ment to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly, butterfly
I can't pretend these tears
Aren't over flowing steadily
I can't prevent this hurt from
Almost overtaking me
But I will stand and say goodbye
For you'll never be mine
Until you know the way it feels to fly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly, oh
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly, oh
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
So flutter through the sky
Butterfly
Fly
Spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
The intervening whistles though... just how seductive just a voice can be.. :D
Small correction, Mariah Carey is also a writer in the making of this song. Thanks for sharing! Love this song!
I've never noticed how fast that run is 3:20
It's like she's doing a run within a run, right? Like there's the main run and in between those runs, she layers another run underneath it, only they're like two separate runs but executed together flawlessly at the same time.
I recently noticed that the end of that run is cut together probs from different takes, very unnoticeable in the original. so smooth and pretty.
This should be Mariah's signature song
IT ABSOLUTELY IS MY 'SIGNATURE' SONG FOR 'GOLDEN MARIAH' 🏆🏆💯%🧡☄🎵❤
Her voice is PERFECT!
A true gifted woman. What a voice! What a talent! God bless you, Mariah. No matter how your voice may be today, you have done so much for music and so much for mankind that you will always be a legend. ❤️
Another planet.. Unreal.. Her voice is a gift from God!
I simply have no words, I'm blessed
This is just PURE MAGIC. Mariah is the BEST. I love her voice
Shes really amazing!
can't believe a "human" did this entire session. MARIAH IS UNREAL
03:47 it sounded like a whistle register appearing without her permition lol
24111009 there is!!!
24111009 Thats head voice not whistle
24111009 yes it was i think it’s polyphonic notes due to her nodules
Yanniek H her nodules make two voices so it is actually is a whistle note
@@ynnkh girl u r wrong dahling it's whistle . Head voice is thicker n that was whistle
Haja fôlego e técnica pra cantar essa música
Simply pure beautiful vocals ❤️❤️❤️
And this should prove why she's the best female vocalist of all time! 👏👏👏
amo a voz dessa mulher 😍😍😍😍
she is just DONT EVEN have words...so amazed but when she whispers she strains her voice...
Her voice is an instrument!
3:45-49 Love the restrain she put on her voice, but her voice won't have it, 'cause you could perfectly notice how her whistle register peeps through the melisma.
you’re right. i think it enhances the whole “butterfly” concept though. those kind of overtones make me think about butterflies. and nature in general
Her voice is just so angelic.
Simply divine 👸🏼
She’s a wonderful interpreter. Her voice mimics a flying butterfly 👑
I don't know enough to much to say! MARIAH is MARIAH! She's the greatest for me. 👏🙄
Puta que pariu que voz maravilhosa!!
this is so relaxing
I love accompanying her as I play piano and strings!!
God did the best job on this woman. He created perfection. Other singers stand far behind...sorry
