The agility required to sing this song is insane. The fact that she sings this song while walking around, moving her hands, and looking at the audience is incredible! Her tone is flawless too.
I think she's a one in a millenia. I don't think we'll see another Mariah with such a beautiful voice an technique in 1000 years. Ariana came close, she's unique with her own voice - influenced by Mariah as well but not close to Mariah. Plus Mariah had an opera singer and vocal coach as a mom
with this song alone, she destroy all your fav catalogs and career... so please RESPECT this woman as a singer, vocalist, songwriter, producer and LEGEND !
why am I starting to appreciate singers like mariah now.. is this part of really growing up... as a 31 year old 😅... just realized how good she is and how hard it is to sing like that. the breathing alone.. is a killer.. and those mic techniques and phenomenal vocal. a metal head here 😅
Me too! 31 year old guy here and just now learning to appreciate Mariah Carey's voice. Got to have all her 90's albums for sure. Her voice is like butter!
Nate....i hear ya. I was only into heavy metal music back in the 90s, I didn't really know about Mariah. But now I appreciate her music, she had an awesome voice. I think it comes with getting older and more mature....haha.
I like when she sings the "never be ashamed, call my name!" so clean, so buttery, and emotional, these adjectives can only come together when mariah sings
This song literally takes my breath away, the way she goes from whisper to belt to whisper to head note and back again is just breathtaking. God, I need a tank of oxygen now lol
+chauncy primm timing, diaphragm control with perfect placement and musicality. What's really amazing is the vocal stamina. Most vocalist would be utterly exhausted by this arrangement but Mariah does it with virtual ease.
Belle Caroro Personally, I think this is the hardest one in breath control...everytime I tried to sing it my mouth would be filled with saliva, LoL. This is her most beautiful and my most favorite song of her, too. "Emotions" and many others because there's too much high notes and I don't have whistle range. And "My All" because of the crazily wide range...I can't reach her lowest part in the end, and I'm an alto for crying out loud. 😂
@@cruzlane9448 No. Beyoncé is in fact one of the best vocalist. You might not like her or think that her tone sounds boring and bland but girl her technique is almost as great as mariahs, her versatility in music is unmatched, she has more than 4 octave range. She can sing circles around artists like Ariana, Adele, Sia and even Lady Gaga. In addition to that she's been singing sing 1993 and her voice still sounds very great. And there is a reason why she's called the greatest performer alive. Not a single artist in the whole damn music industry can deliver a Coachella performance like Beyoncé did and if you watch her documentary "homecoming" you know damn well that you can't deny that. Now stop uplifting Mariah and dragging Bey. They are good friends and even Mariah said that Beyoncé is a gorgeous vocalist. I seriously hate fandoms. Mariah and Beyoncé are my queens but lambs can't stop to drag people like Beyoncé, Whitney or Celiné down.
@@cruzlane9448 ua-cam.com/video/iR6W1pKnQhk/v-deo.html Hate her or love her but the woman is talented unlike many people. She combined vocals and dancing and made it a thing in the 00s. I mean look at other female performers. Can Janet Jackson sing? No. Can Britney Spears sing? No. Can Jennifer Hoepez sing? No. Beyoncé is outstanding no matter what you say.
She was lucky to made her debut in the 90’s cause then people appreciate so much the power of the voice against nowadays when the voice is the last thing that a singer or people think about.
Man...if you do not have a voice killer like mariah, whitney, aretha, boys 2 men, or mostly dominated by black r n b, dont u ever wish became a singer....'90 is a hard time heheh
Faldi syah I agree that they are AMAZING vocalists.. but I disagree that was the only way. Madonna was arguably a bigger icon (whether we like her or not) with a pretty basic voice
Tyler Mills Usually I would agree with you.. but this is dubbed. Mariah is bad at lip syncing and would never the pull the mic away from her mouth when lipping belts
David Nick Mariah set the standard because she writes her songs like nobody. Whitney couldn't do a song like this and Mariah has the highest voice ever and inspired all the New generation
+Kingpablo so freaking true, recognize and appreciate all of the people that have paved the way but I think he was referring to the kind of newer generation that influenced the mid 80s to present pop and r&b culture. But you're so right
Hija DeDios .... 1st of all what made the 90s amaze ballz . ... My Mum was alive well and healthy... Mariah was introduced ... music was actually music none of this made in china bullshit (well not in my country ) ... so much positives i had in the 90s had a blast ... its 2018 and MC is still relevant .... Oct 2nd im off to her concert again ...
This album was released when i was back in second year highschool. Damn even the guys were jamming on her song fantasy and most of us students have a cd of this on our discman.!!!
Mariah sounds amazing here. I can't even believe she's singing live. I think her problem today is that she is her own competition. We expect her to be just as good as she was.
+werquin perez She shared her voice & gift w us for 20+ years. With the vocal strength like she graced us w on this performance, ofc it will not be in the same shape. Be thankful.
This song is so damn hard to sing. Technicality and emotional delivery must be 100%. From soft to powerful belts to melismas to projection to stamina to key change is required. She made it seem so easy. Mariah is Mariah 👑👑👑
You people will never give Mariah the credit & respect she deserves. Mariah is a music Icon. Who else produces, writes, and sings like her?? NOBODY! She is in a category of her own. #queenofmusic
I honestly believe she is the BEST artist in the business. Bc SHE decided to put forth the effort to be her own and other people's producer and writer and learn to keep singing better and sing runs like nothing. She is the hardest working artist who doesn't get half that credit. She gets credit for her success not the work she did to get the success.. Smh 😤😒
CassieJazz96 I can't fathom the thought of what the world would be without her. Half the artists from 00's to 10's wouldn't be on the radio is Mariah was never discovered.
There is something about the way she sings this song....I just cannot explain it, you would never find a LIVE performance w this much passion in a song today......sad but this is the truth, I have hope for music though.....good music.....Thank you Mariah for sharing your gift with us.....
90s Mariah set the basis for her style. Afterward, she built on it. She just got better and ridiculously accurate with her note choice and tone. Butterfly album is THE benchmark. NO ONE CAN REPEAT OR BETTER THAT. It's all sweet candy. I've got a cavity from it.
Children bashing MC singing live on stage, but their favorites could never have the vocal capability of this woman gracing the stage. AFTER 20+ years of performing LIVE. Don't judge people, pay resects, while this legend is still living. Do you see Mariah dancing around on stage with an act? Or in any ridic outfit to keep the audience entertained? No. Millions paid to come hear her VOICE, a talent, oops, no shade to your favorites today. But let that soak into mind. Could they ever????
+MIMI CAREY +MIMI CAREY - Even though this particular video's audio is the studio recorded version of the song - I still totally appreciate Mariah's talent :) wonder what she sounded like live here - more than likely flawless as usual :)
She will forever be the best singer/songwriter in history. Doesn’t matter what her voice sounds like now. You sell that many albums, travel that much, get used by record labels and give birth then try singing. She’s the ultimate, forever.
Regardless to what damage she did to her voice , what she gave the world cannot be matched , dismissed, and will never be forgotten, Mariah will "FOREVER" be the greatest of all time.
The "mic swinging" is a clever way to get dynamics right singing live. Controls volume, like a knob. And the hand waving? That is a mind trick she (and other singers) use to "aim" for melisma on pitch, kind of a form of mathmatics . Basically there is a lot going on in her and any good singers mind when they sing. The voice is truly an instrument that takes practice and skill, something many modern day singers have forgotten.
Don't confuse. Mariah carey actually didn't sing this song in her 1995 madison square garden concert. This video is filmed in studio: it is taken after the show. If you don't believe, let's just search and find her undubbed video on youtube!
노유찬 people like you get on top of my nerves. Can we enjoy a video without the trolls? Take sometime to actually appreciate the lyrics, music, and vocals before u comment
If only I were in that concert, I would be crying throughout the entire concert because of extreme disbelief that I'm actually hearing the voices of angels in heaven. Also, frustration because I can't find my wig. LOL
I was at this concert! We drove from MD to NY and I was only 12! She didn’t perform this, but this must have been rehearsal or after everyone left. I was requesting her to sing this and “Underneath the Stars” all night. Her voice was live and flawless all night and she’s is not lipping this. It’s definitely live, but they edited scenes of the audience to make it look like it was during her concert!
No one can compare Mariah's voice. This is one of her hardest song to sing, that no one or somebody can sing like what she did in live on in studio version. This is the only proof that Mariah is on top of the other artist from her prime until now. She's kicking every artist until now.
@@misshaiku_k2857 If we can listen to Mariah, what's the point of listening to an inferior karaoke singer. And anyway no one has ever sung this song with the same, low notes, transitions especially in the chorus, runs, resonance, perfect pitch and so on
Agreed! Fav. song & Forever my Idol!! I'm also a singer songwriter and I cover songs by Mariah, Whitney, Kelly, Toni, Celine, Beyonce, Leona, Alicia, Adele, Ariana, etc. Just posted a live performance at a festival. Would love some feedback. Thanks. (Forever Cover) ua-cam.com/video/EVo94j2neLY/v-deo.html 💖💖💖🦋🦋🦋 Crystal
I don't want to compare Mariah to other Queens like Whitney or Celine but you have to admit that Mariah has something more in her voice and her interpretation something that comes from heaven like an angel. The performance is incredible, we forget all our worries while listening to her. Thank you Mariah to exist and to have sung this wonderful song which will remain FOREVER in my heart ❤🙏
Sadly Mariah Carey's songs are one of the most difficults in the industry, Emotions is the most difficult song in the world, Vision of Love and Fly Like A Bird are impossible to cover perfectly well done. Forever is not impossible but extremely hard to sing as the breath technique has to be perfect, these long C5's aren't easy to hit specially if they are the chorus force.
Marlon Liendo Not to mention the fast accurate melismas, the smooth transitions, and the immense gorgeous resonance, nvm it's an impossible song too LOL 😬🙃👽
For those who are wondering why Mariah waves her microphone like that, no, she is not lip-syncing. Those are her vocals live. She's doing a performing technique . See, a lot of singers make the mistake in shoving the microphone to their face when they perform. They end up sounding loud and rough. The reason Ms. Mariah here can achieve a smooth and butter-like sound from voice when sings is because she knows how to control her volume and proportion the mic from her face. With this, she is able to control her low and high notes notes, her volume, and the amount of breath noise she sings into the mic. Its vocal perfection at its best. Hence the standing ovation throughout her performance.
Super super super trueee!!!! She knows when and when not to distance the mic from her mouth. Sometimes, even her whispery voice is too powerful she doesnt need to put the mic too close. That's how amazing she is!!! Forever love mariah!
To be fair, I think this version was edited for her DVD. BUT if you search the live unedited version of this song from MSG she sounds the same. She slays, always.
She has the most beautiful and angelic voice I' ve ever heard, It' s magic, unreal, heavenly. And this song is almost impossible to sing. Forever the unbeatable Vocal Queen 👑
yes, really truth mariah is the best International Queen Of music industry🤗😉😘😍 and I'm a fan of mc i love her so much, ☺️ I Have a request for you, u can check out the mariah carey of the phillipines a young man who can Sing it like mariah , U search in here in UA-cam KENNY CANEDO Forever she ruins and nailed it the song, and more song of mariah ☺️☺️☺️
what can u say😁 about him, he did the song of mariah and he's sounds like mariah also😉😊 he's also known as mariah Kenny of the philippines😁😅 .. I lOve u So much (MC)🤩😍😘 Forever and ever idol☺️
In order to be even considered to compare with Mariah Carey... you need to check the things in this list first. 1. Strong Chest Voice! Able to sing low and belt notes flawlessly without straining. I've heard a lot of singers who covered MC's songs, when it comes to upper belt, they are very weak at it and use falsetto/head voice to reach the notes instead. Some just strained the heck out of their voice, that's why they said "vocal suicide". Some could even do whistle notes but couldn't do justice to the upper belts. 2. Have a soft, full, dark, and melodic tone and able to have a clear diction. In order to fit with MC songs' mood, the tone need to be similar. Bright, light, sharp tone won't fit the mood, though bright tone tends to have much clearer diction. That's why practice.....! Produce those sounds and consonants clear. 3. Have at least 4-octave range! Able to sing low, mid, belt, high. And all the notes in between, no skipping any note! MC'S range is 5.4. And able to do a lot of stuff with that vocal range. If you have a 5-octave range with weak and untrained, then don't even count. 4. Able to write their own songs with meaningful/creative lyrics. Also superior to your own voice, meaning other singers when cover your songs feel pressure as the songs are built for your voice, fit your tone and range. We rarely hear singers cover MC songs, because they require tons of vocal acrobats! 5. Able to do vocal acrobats, like hit low, belt, high, whistle notes, shift register smoothly, sing in different register, run, riff, melisma, phrase, etc. All the things Taylor Swift can't do. xD 6. Stage presence, show emotion when sing, captivate audiences. Switch original keys to different keys when live, do a live version of the studio version and dont have to be exactly the same every notes. Mix it up! 7. Versatile, able to have fun with different music genres, dance and have fun, also a performer. 8. Able to act, direct, produce, his/her music video, be creative, artwork. 9. On high-maintenance of vocal because you know your voice is precious. 10. Be fabulous, be a diva/divo and shady as f**k because you know you're good! haha xD There, 10 things to be considered the next music legendary. If anybody is able to do it, let me know xD haha.
Fated_Child I think you're just boring quite frankly you need to find something else better to do than arguing. Anyway both singers won't see our comments 😄
I agree with the most, but why you should bring Taylor Swift, she's not a vocalist and most singers today can't do what Mariah did in her prime. If you want to make a comparison, please do better next.
no matter what people may say or think about Mariah, there is no denying that her voice was amazing and untouchable. Even today, at her age with her voice issues at times, she's still amazing.
One of the most difficult songs to sing in the music history by the greatest singer ever graced the world. This is a piece of God we’re witnessing! We are not worthy Queen Mariah.
Ron Isley Mariah can't lip perfectly, especially in her prime, it's most likely live, but people just assume it's pre-recorded since they don't have the undubbed version of this performance 🤦🏻♂️
Oh my GOD, its just PERFECTION, the song, the voice, no one could ever sing this song or any other her song but Mariah Carey herself. " She's incomparable, irreplaceable, she's " MASTERPIECE ". Did this song ever #1 on Billboard ? If not, well that's damn shame. I love her back then, now and forever, she's the #GOAT periodt.
TheXanderVan nahhh. forever is my song okkk and i hope on playing during y wedding. its funny cuzz i was born in 2001 and this came out in God knows when.....i love the video and m.c i just actually liked tht she does tht with hee foot everytime she sings this song
sheedy blu Why must kids always address their age? Like can't you just say you're playing this at your wedding which you're still very young to be even thinking about? Seriously do you think you need a standing ovation for being under 20 and liking this song? lol um no bye.
SuperDannyBoy95 Still too young to think about? That's the dumbest shit I've ever heard LmAo, there's nothing wrong with youthful people thinking about their futures, and no one's asking for a standing ovation dickwad, they're simply giving their nice opinion of Mariah's song, don't be such a grumpy bitch and kill the mood
Greatest woman singer of all time. Legendary voice, more #1 hits than anyone. Facts... and I am not a super fan, but going through her live concerts and videos. Deserving...
That voice was sent to us from God. Nobody can sing like that. She has emotion, breath control, range, and she flips from chest to falsetto to whistle like she was born with a piano in her throat. Whitney Houston had a powerful voice and it was hard to ignore but she had a range like anybody else it was just when whit sang it the song was better. But almost every song written by Mariah is impossible for anybody to sing without changing it.
I'm an atheist 100% but mariah's voice is the only reason I would ever believe in God. There's plenty of amazing singers out there but Mariah is just out of this world.
mariahfan999 i agree her voice is soo unique just riffs and runs and the melismas she does with her songs and on top of that she is such a great song writer and has soo many underrated songs.. Such a shame...
Those days of love are gone Our time is through Still I burn on and on All of my life Only for you From now Until forever And ever my darling Forever You will always be the only one You will always be the only one As long as I shall live I'll hold you dear And I will reminisce Of our love all through the years From now Until forever And ever my darling Forever You will always be the only one You will always be the only one If you should ever need me Unfailingly, I will return to your arms And unburden your heart And if you should remember That we belong together Never be ashamed Call my name Tell me I'm the one you treasure Forever And ever, my darling Forever You…

I always bite my lips on this one!
Me too I'm definitely envious right now
I envy to those who lived during this era.
I lived during that era.. I was like 9 years old and it was magical times.. Mariah was on the radio every time my dad took me to the school .. : D
Ikmal Ahjussi it was amazing living through the 90s
Gabriel Mohi What makes the 90s so amazing ???
Hija DeDios .... 1st of all what made the 90s amaze ballz . ... My Mum was alive well and healthy... Mariah was introduced ... music was actually music none of this made in china bullshit (well not in my country ) ... so much positives i had in the 90s had a blast ... its 2018 and MC is still relevant .... Oct 2nd im off to her concert again ...
This album was released when i was back in second year highschool. Damn even the guys were jamming on her song fantasy and most of us students have a cd of this on our discman.!!!
PERFECT. FLAWLESS. GODDESS.
Fsct😁🎧🎤✌💓
Mariah Carey' s voice... One in a 7 billion. Simply the greatest vocalist of all time. 👑
Agree
💯
The population of the earth when Mariah was born (1969) was 3.607 billion.
@@johnathantaylor5913 she was born 1970
She could never see Whitney Houston.
This voice is unreal. A truly gift from God
Mariah sounds amazing here. I can't even believe she's singing live. I think her problem today is that she is her own competition. We expect her to be just as good as she was.
werquin perez My thoughts exactly.
+werquin perez She shared her voice & gift w us for 20+ years. With the vocal strength like she graced us w on this performance, ofc it will not be in the same shape. Be thankful.
I love MC, but I hate when ppl keep saying all this. Haven't Aretha and Patti done the same... Celine too? Mariah is not that old!!
werquin perez But we're talking about just Mariah here, not those other queens.
+werquin perez They don't have vocal nodes like mariah does
☑️ Lyrics
☑️ Melisma
☑️ Heavenly falsetto/head voice
☑️ Creamy/Buttery/Light Tone
☑️ Resonance
Perfect representation of a perfect vocalist 💓
Angel
God's given TALENT
Whisper vocal
You forgot stylistics.
you forgot belting
One of the best vocal performances of all time. In the greatest voice that has ever lived.
Whitney and Mariah are both true vocal athletes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song is so damn hard to sing. Technicality and emotional delivery must be 100%. From soft to powerful belts to melismas to projection to stamina to key change is required. She made it seem so easy. Mariah is Mariah 👑👑👑
Mariah is untouchable, attempting to sing her song is suicide 😂
This song is beautiful even is not a top but for me is so hard to sing this song like Mariah ..is wonderful
Correct
It sounds SO DIFFICULT to me and she made it seem effortless 😍
nelson sailo .....true. Such an awesome voice.
One of her hardest songs to sing..nobody could sing this song like her..no one..she's incomparable..👍👍✌
only when i saw you can top it.
She wrote her songs like that. Hard to duplicate
the lungs on her...like girl what did you just do amazing ! hard work
@@a-bd1216 Had yeah this is a classic example of power belting above sound resonance no wonder people were going crazy at her live performances
And still is super luscious too!!
Performances like this are what separate Mariah from other singers. The greatest of all time, no one will ever match this.
Multi-talented, gorgeous, angelic voice. She's PERFECT.
The Best singer in the World.Fabulous voice.
You people will never give Mariah the credit & respect she deserves. Mariah is a music Icon. Who else produces, writes, and sings like her?? NOBODY! She is in a category of her own. #queenofmusic
I honestly believe she is the BEST artist in the business. Bc SHE decided to put forth the effort to be her own and other people's producer and writer and learn to keep singing better and sing runs like nothing. She is the hardest working artist who doesn't get half that credit. She gets credit for her success not the work she did to get the success.. Smh 😤😒
Danté Riccelli Same here, she's my favorite artist of all time.
CassieJazz96 I can't fathom the thought of what the world would be without her. Half the artists from 00's to 10's wouldn't be on the radio is Mariah was never discovered.
Danté Riccelli Yup, ha influence lol
Law This makes me so sad... that it's impossible that another singer like Mariah will ever exist
One of the most difficult songs in history, performed by ¡The best female voice in history! ❤ You will be eternal Mariah carey.
silky smooth and effortless. Love it!
Never heard this song before. One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.
There is something about the way she sings this song....I just cannot explain it, you would never find a LIVE performance w this much passion in a song today......sad but this is the truth, I have hope for music though.....good music.....Thank you Mariah for sharing your gift with us.....
+MIMI CAREY its too insane and effortless ...
+MIMI CAREY i love you
Mariano Minaj I love you too.
+Caprice Summers Yea,you've said it right.They never make such good music any more! Pity current lot of the so called singers/musicians!
+Caprice Summers 7y0
90s Mariah set the basis for her style.
Afterward, she built on it. She just got better and ridiculously accurate with her note choice and tone.
Butterfly album is THE benchmark. NO ONE CAN REPEAT OR BETTER THAT.
It's all sweet candy.
I've got a cavity from it.
Timeless. Legend. Iconic. I will cherish your music til the day I die. Grateful to have been alive during your era.
Children bashing MC singing live on stage, but their favorites could never have the vocal capability of this woman gracing the stage. AFTER 20+ years of performing LIVE. Don't judge people, pay resects, while this legend is still living. Do you see Mariah dancing around on stage with an act? Or in any ridic outfit to keep the audience entertained? No. Millions paid to come hear her VOICE, a talent, oops, no shade to your favorites today. But let that soak into mind. Could they ever????
Yes.
ikr😂😂👑👑
+MIMI CAREY +MIMI CAREY - Even though this particular video's audio is the studio recorded version of the song - I still totally appreciate Mariah's talent :) wonder what she sounded like live here - more than likely flawless as usual :)
indeed...
+MIMI CAREY Really agreeee with that. Mariah is a living legend.
One of the greatest Mariah Carey performances!! 1995 was her greatest vocal peak
Today, her peak period is still unparalleled, and she is still the best pop female voice.
Time has proved it.
She will forever be the best singer/songwriter in history. Doesn’t matter what her voice sounds like now. You sell that many albums, travel that much, get used by record labels and give birth then try singing. She’s the ultimate, forever.
PERIOD
PREACH!!
SINGING WITH NODULESSSSS! Don't forget this part of her instrument that could be both a huge blessing and a factor to the detriment of her voice.
Number of times Mariah switched her mic left and right: 29
Observant
😂😂😂😂😂
boredom is real😂😂😂😂
Peanut Brittle actually, it's 30 times
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤
Regardless to what damage she did to her voice , what she gave the world cannot be matched , dismissed, and will never be forgotten, Mariah will "FOREVER" be the greatest of all time.
So true.
No one is a better singer. 🫶🏻
period
The "mic swinging" is a clever way to get dynamics right singing live. Controls volume, like a knob. And the hand waving? That is a mind trick she (and other singers) use to "aim" for melisma on pitch, kind of a form of mathmatics
. Basically there is a lot going on in her and any good singers mind when they sing. The voice is truly an instrument that takes practice and skill, something many modern day singers have forgotten.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Mariahs hand movements are just as legendary as her voice Heheh 😝😊
well said.
It's an art we don't see artist do anymore. Mariah's technique is what really sets her apart from other legendary singers.
+Madison g
+Madison so true.
Mariah, I grew up with you, and I just wanna say thank you so much for all these beautiful songs...I love singing them. U r so special!
Don't confuse. Mariah carey actually didn't sing this song in her 1995 madison square garden concert. This video is filmed in studio: it is taken after the show. If you don't believe, let's just search and find her undubbed video on youtube!
노유찬 sorry, but is it relevant to her comment? She just shows her love with Mariah.
노유찬 Yeah. Is this relevant? Your provings looks like you're a hater. :) How dumb you are.
Actually this was filmed on MSG, after the audience had gone
노유찬 people like you get on top of my nerves. Can we enjoy a video without the trolls? Take sometime to actually appreciate the lyrics, music, and vocals before u comment
YOU WILL ALWAYS BEEE THE ONLYYYY ONEEEE
MARIAH CAREY WILL FOREVER BE THE QUEEN OF THE STAGE FRONT !!! ...
i envy those who have watched her at this concert damn it
yessss me too :( :( i would have done anything just.to be there
Seriously no one understands
Shania Enaje Amen! I wasn't even born yet lol 💓
If only I were in that concert, I would be crying throughout the entire concert because of extreme disbelief that I'm actually hearing the voices of angels in heaven. Also, frustration because I can't find my wig. LOL
I was at this concert! We drove from MD to NY and I was only 12! She didn’t perform this, but this must have been rehearsal or after everyone left. I was requesting her to sing this and “Underneath the Stars” all night. Her voice was live and flawless all night and she’s is not lipping this. It’s definitely live, but they edited scenes of the audience to make it look like it was during her concert!
No one can do, what she already did, same to whitney, they show us, how beautiful music is..
Prince Raeven Couldn't have said it better myself, beautiful sentiment.
CassieJazz96 thank you. well it's a fact.. :)
No one can compare Mariah's voice. This is one of her hardest song to sing, that no one or somebody can sing like what she did in live on in studio version. This is the only proof that Mariah is on top of the other artist from her prime until now. She's kicking every artist until now.
So hardcore...
If you love Mariah, check out PH's Morissette Amon, you might have missed someone in your yard...
@@misshaiku_k2857 If we can listen to Mariah, what's the point of listening to an inferior karaoke singer. And anyway no one has ever sung this song with the same, low notes, transitions especially in the chorus, runs, resonance, perfect pitch and so on
Agreed! Fav. song & Forever my Idol!! I'm also a singer songwriter and I cover songs by Mariah, Whitney, Kelly, Toni, Celine, Beyonce, Leona, Alicia, Adele, Ariana, etc. Just posted a live performance at a festival. Would love some feedback. Thanks. (Forever Cover) ua-cam.com/video/EVo94j2neLY/v-deo.html 💖💖💖🦋🦋🦋
Crystal
She cant sing like this anymore now
I don't want to compare Mariah to other Queens like Whitney or Celine but you have to admit that Mariah has something more in her voice and her interpretation something that comes from heaven like an angel. The performance is incredible, we forget all our worries while listening to her. Thank you Mariah to exist and to have sung this wonderful song which will remain FOREVER in my heart ❤🙏
Omg exactly!!I thought I was the only one noticing that😂💕
@Spilota13
Absolutely. Mariah Carey's voice is one in a hundred million.
no has mariah voice she one in 10 billion her voice is god like vocals
Only be and ever be one MC.
We are
So lucky
Exactly! Mariah Carey! 🔥👑❤️
Mariahs voice is what heaven probably sounds like
I always think that Forever is a good song for any singing competition contestant who wishes to showcase their singing chops.
Sadly Mariah Carey's songs are one of the most difficults in the industry, Emotions is the most difficult song in the world, Vision of Love and Fly Like A Bird are impossible to cover perfectly well done. Forever is not impossible but extremely hard to sing as the breath technique has to be perfect, these long C5's aren't easy to hit specially if they are the chorus force.
Marlon Liendo Not to mention the fast accurate melismas, the smooth transitions, and the immense gorgeous resonance, nvm it's an impossible song too LOL 😬🙃👽
For those who are wondering why Mariah waves her microphone like that, no, she is not lip-syncing. Those are her vocals live. She's doing a performing technique . See, a lot of singers make the mistake in shoving the microphone to their face when they perform. They end up sounding loud and rough. The reason Ms. Mariah here can achieve a smooth and butter-like sound from voice when sings is because she knows how to control her volume and proportion the mic from her face. With this, she is able to control her low and high notes notes, her volume, and the amount of breath noise she sings into the mic. Its vocal perfection at its best.
Hence the standing ovation throughout her performance.
Super super super trueee!!!! She knows when and when not to distance the mic from her mouth. Sometimes, even her whispery voice is too powerful she doesnt need to put the mic too close. That's how amazing she is!!! Forever love mariah!
To be fair, I think this version was edited for her DVD. BUT if you search the live unedited version of this song from MSG she sounds the same. She slays, always.
+Giovanni G she's perfect!first i thougt i was watching the lyrics video..
+Linda Kamphan OMOOO Where did you find the undubbed version of Forever in MSG? I can't find it now :(
PJ Greaves Yeah it was dubbed.
Mariah is everything.. no one can compete.. nor can they compare.. she’s unreal… 🫢🙌👏🙌👏🙌
still re watching in 2019, anyone else ? ❤️
Yes i did
Damn, yes!
Yess i amm
Me dahling ❣😍 MC is 😍
Meee,the greatest vocalist of all times
3:14 it sounds like HEAVEN OMG!!! WHAT A HEAVENLY VOICE!! 😭😭😭
I'm absolutely captivated by this angel.
The same
She has the most beautiful and angelic voice I' ve ever heard, It' s magic, unreal, heavenly. And this song is almost impossible to sing. Forever the unbeatable Vocal Queen 👑
I love how Mariah signature notes are so hard to achieve that no one can even cover her songs really.... Like C5's nonstop throughout the whole song.
078jordan1 Exactly, not the note itself, but the way she sings it, such technique, damn shes a beast
I wish Mariah acknowledged this song more it's a timeless classic
No-one can sing this song. If anyone can touch those high notes, it's still not great because it's Mariah's vocal.
yes, really truth mariah is the best International Queen Of music industry🤗😉😘😍 and I'm a fan of mc i love her so much, ☺️
I Have a request for you, u can check out the mariah carey of the phillipines a young man who can Sing it like mariah , U search in here in UA-cam KENNY CANEDO Forever she ruins and nailed it the song, and more song of mariah ☺️☺️☺️
Yaasss.....
what can u say😁 about him, he did the song of mariah and he's sounds like mariah also😉😊 he's also known as mariah Kenny of the philippines😁😅 .. I lOve u So much (MC)🤩😍😘 Forever and ever idol☺️
Katerina velarde...
are not as high duh
This is mariah carey in her prime❤❤
In order to be even considered to compare with Mariah Carey... you need to check the things in this list first.
1. Strong Chest Voice! Able to sing low and belt notes flawlessly without straining. I've heard a lot of singers who covered MC's songs, when it comes to upper belt, they are very weak at it and use falsetto/head voice to reach the notes instead. Some just strained the heck out of their voice, that's why they said "vocal suicide". Some could even do whistle notes but couldn't do justice to the upper belts.
2. Have a soft, full, dark, and melodic tone and able to have a clear diction. In order to fit with MC songs' mood, the tone need to be similar. Bright, light, sharp tone won't fit the mood, though bright tone tends to have much clearer diction. That's why practice.....! Produce those sounds and consonants clear.
3. Have at least 4-octave range! Able to sing low, mid, belt, high. And all the notes in between, no skipping any note! MC'S range is 5.4. And able to do a lot of stuff with that vocal range. If you have a 5-octave range with weak and untrained, then don't even count.
4. Able to write their own songs with meaningful/creative lyrics. Also superior to your own voice, meaning other singers when cover your songs feel pressure as the songs are built for your voice, fit your tone and range. We rarely hear singers cover MC songs, because they require tons of vocal acrobats!
5. Able to do vocal acrobats, like hit low, belt, high, whistle notes, shift register smoothly, sing in different register, run, riff, melisma, phrase, etc. All the things Taylor Swift can't do. xD
6. Stage presence, show emotion when sing, captivate audiences. Switch original keys to different keys when live, do a live version of the studio version and dont have to be exactly the same every notes. Mix it up!
7. Versatile, able to have fun with different music genres, dance and have fun, also a performer.
8. Able to act, direct, produce, his/her music video, be creative, artwork.
9. On high-maintenance of vocal because you know your voice is precious.
10. Be fabulous, be a diva/divo and shady as f**k because you know you're good! haha xD
There, 10 things to be considered the next music legendary. If anybody is able to do it, let me know xD haha.
Noone can do these. can I make these into a video?
AGREE
unfortunately Ariana fans don't think the same, they disrespect Mariah using her 2014-2016 performances as argument to say she can't sing.
Norma Di Pardo And many of her performances during this period are amazing.
Fated_Child I think you're just boring quite frankly you need to find something else better to do than arguing. Anyway both singers won't see our comments 😄
I agree with the most, but why you should bring Taylor Swift, she's not a vocalist and most singers today can't do what Mariah did in her prime. If you want to make a comparison, please do better next.
this song is just made for her, no one can sing this song the way mariah did she just slayed this song perfectly
kookienochu's noona like yeah!!!!
kookienochu's noona of the song is made for her when she wrote it 😊
Duh... She wrote it
no matter what people may say or think about Mariah, there is no denying that her voice was amazing and untouchable. Even today, at her age with her voice issues at times, she's still amazing.
1/3 of the vocal trinity. What a voice man.
One of the most difficult songs to sing in the music history by the greatest singer ever graced the world. This is a piece of God we’re witnessing! We are not worthy Queen Mariah.
She is definitely the best singer of all time in my point of view❤️
She really is, no one can touch her
Thank you😀
GREATEST VOCALIST OF ALL TIME !!!!
When the live version is better than the studio.. only Mariah!
It's the same here....
Krystian Kozłowski No there's parts she didn't do in the studio version dahling 🌝
Truth 100%
Ron Isley Mariah can't lip perfectly, especially in her prime, it's most likely live, but people just assume it's pre-recorded since they don't have the undubbed version of this performance 🤦🏻♂️
Daydream look 2:42 she is lip sync
Oh my GOD, its just PERFECTION, the song, the voice, no one could ever sing this song or any other her song but Mariah Carey herself. " She's incomparable, irreplaceable, she's " MASTERPIECE ". Did this song ever #1 on Billboard ? If not, well that's damn shame. I love her back then, now and forever, she's the #GOAT periodt.
PERIOD
THIS IS WHAT SINGING TRULY MEANING ..
not just wooo wooo huu .. wok wok wok .. and other just catchy tunes that get boring for two or three months ..
well said you are so right
TheXanderVan nahhh. forever is my song okkk and i hope on playing during y wedding. its funny cuzz i was born in 2001 and this came out in God knows when.....i love the video and m.c i just actually liked tht she does tht with hee foot everytime she sings this song
sheedy blu Why must kids always address their age? Like can't you just say you're playing this at your wedding which you're still very young to be even thinking about? Seriously do you think you need a standing ovation for being under 20 and liking this song? lol um no bye.
SuperDannyBoy95 Still too young to think about? That's the dumbest shit I've ever heard LmAo, there's nothing wrong with youthful people thinking about their futures, and no one's asking for a standing ovation dickwad, they're simply giving their nice opinion of Mariah's song, don't be such a grumpy bitch and kill the mood
Greatest woman singer of all time. Legendary voice, more #1 hits than anyone. Facts... and I am not a super fan, but going through her live concerts and videos. Deserving...
it s crazy how her voice resonnate like a cathédrale !!! damn !! savage vocals !!! :p and what an emotion ^^
That voice was sent to us from God. Nobody can sing like that. She has emotion, breath control, range, and she flips from chest to falsetto to whistle like she was born with a piano in her throat. Whitney Houston had a powerful voice and it was hard to ignore but she had a range like anybody else it was just when whit sang it the song was better. But almost every song written by Mariah is impossible for anybody to sing without changing it.
You comment just covered almost everything.brilliant.😀 couldn't agree with you more. BEST TECHNICAL SINGER TO EVER HIT THE MICROPHONE.😀
I'm an atheist 100% but mariah's voice is the only reason I would ever believe in God. There's plenty of amazing singers out there but Mariah is just out of this world.
That is just a gift from God
mariahfan999 i agree her voice is soo unique just riffs and runs and the melismas she does with her songs and on top of that she is such a great song writer and has soo many underrated songs.. Such a shame...
I only can sing GTFO from Mariah. Or "Obssessed "
One of her best live performances ever. Her voice is amazing. Forever love you Mariah.
A beautifully tragic love ballad..I remember..most people will always recollect such an absorbing piece of stellar music and vocals...
Yes! While i love tons of Mariah songs, Forever will always be number 1 for me. Melt Away would be second best.
The best vocalist of all times ❤
Those days of love are gone
Our time is through
Still I burn on and on
All of my life
Only for you
From now
Until forever
And ever my darling
Forever
You will always be the only one
You will always be the only one
As long as I shall live
I'll hold you dear
And I will reminisce
Of our love all through the years
From now
Until forever
And ever my darling
Forever
You will always be the only one
You will always be the only one
If you should ever need me
Unfailingly, I will return to your arms
And unburden your heart
And if you should remember
That we belong together
Never be ashamed
Call my name
Tell me I'm the one you treasure
Forever
And ever, my darling
Forever
You…
Thank you so much
