@@connorcoleman0379 Mariah has been a singer for decades longer than Ariana, so yes obviously she can do whistle tone better. That doesn't invalidate the fact that Ariana, who is 25, can hit those notes so well live.
Irishrugbyfan 03 how is she trying to be Mariah? Are whistle notes copyrighted by her? I don’t think so. Many artists did it before Mimi did. Haters are always gonna hate smh.
@Saul Gland honestly though why compare two songs with two different meanings? Lennon's version was, in my opinion, more of the ideal world, a world where people don't need to be afraid of what they are and where there is unity and love among all of us. Ari's version spoke something personal and deep within her. Of her wish to have a normal relationship without the constant influence and intervention of media. She is literally imagining what kind of life it would be--the life that she wants with her lover--if everything was just chill and there was no pressure. Two different songs with two different meanings. Remember that.
When asked by a fan what the track was about, Ari tweeted it was about “a simple, beautiful love that is now (and forever) unattainable.” Such a beautiful tribute to Mac Miller.
she was struggling soo much not to cry and i expected her to skip the whistles cause she wasnt emotionally okay but she did them flawlessly at that. This shows how even celebs are human and experience emotion and i love ari even more for being so strong, i hope Dalton treats you well

@@MarcusGondhai all of singers who came before 90s even didn't know autotune. So mariah whitney etc didn't. back in the day unless they trying new, like mariah song obsessed 2009 it was autotuned. And I dont think she used autotune here. But the whistles are clearly prerecorded
@@juliacochrane9754 omg i'm saying umm cause its like Ari's catchphrase like yuh, and it just like thinking because im afraid im wrong so people could correct me lol i never had any intention for being rude to somebody who asking nicely :)
Admit it or not, this performance surely goes down in music history, just like what Mariah did every time she hits whistle notes perfectly. Mariah loves Ari because aside from seeing the potential in her, they both went through their own consecutive struggles in life, yet has still managed to shine, even brighter. Protect them both and appreciate their music at all costs while we still have them.
@@Constrigun No, wtf, mariah She did not invent the whistling voice, it's like saying that she's copying another high note from another artist. Your question does not make sense. Any artist is free to make the kinds of notes that they want.
Poor girl was hurting while singing this. Apparently she was gonna skip past the whistle notes because she wasn't emotionally prepared to control her vocals, but she did flawlessly!
This song is about Malcom, who had recently passed away. She wrote this after his death. You can tell she's not performing at her best, and there is a lot more strain on her voice.
The raspy-ness of her voice in this particular performance is so good and soothing. Fits the song and the situation perfectly . Bitch knows how to transfer a VIBE. I got the chills and those whistle notes were just out of this world.
@You Tube Omg they're not even talking about Mariah. Mariah may be better but so what? There's always gonna be someone who's better. That doesn't mean Ari is nothing. She's one of the best young singers we have today. They didn't say anything about Mariah so can you people stop comparing?? For goodness' sake. They're both great but they didn't even compare themselves with each other saying who's better. Mariah may be better but Ari didn't say anything about her and they're both different and unique. Just stop. Omg.. You Mariah fans are also not really helping Mariah with your comments. People are just gonna hate fans like you and maybe also Mariah even more because you're so annoying.
3 years later, and this is STILL and forever will be my favorite live performance of Ari! I love her vocals and although you can tell how hard this was to sing for her, she stood strong and sang her heart out. That's what I love about her
the fact she still sounds so beautiful whilst holding back tears, she’s been through so much at such a young age especially. she deserves every bit of happiness
Those tiny cracks in her voice show how truly heartbroken she is. Her pain is something no one must experience. And she is such a beautiful, talented young woman who has had the world throw things in her path that are straight out terrible. But the fact that she has remained strong through everything is something that has tremendously increased my respect for her. Here's to hoping her life will only get better from now
The fact she was hurting so so bad and gave us this 🥺 so grateful for her, it brought a tear to my eye watching this back knowing where she’s at now and where she was here. So glad she found her peace and happiness, she deserves it 🤍
I always come back to this live performance, because even though I love the studio version and I'm not a big fan of the arrangement here (no shade to the Roots though), I love what Ariana does while the song goes out. The original just has her ambiently speak the final "imagine" parts, while here she belts it out with the peppy horn and sax as a background, like it's building up to something, but the last "imagine" almost like the song is cut, like a desperate plea. It's so abrupt, and sad, and amazing.
This would actually be a nightmare. I am not spouting nonsense off, I know what I am talking about. If you wish to know more just tell me in a contact below.
Eh it’s hard to tell if they were faked or not because often times artists will pre-record high vocals with little imperfections to make it seem real. so they’ll hit the notes but leave in little parts they did wrong to make it SEEM like it’s natural... so ari obviously did this live at some point during the day but whether that was right there on stage or before she went on is hard to say.. she’s also doing that thing she did back in the honeymoon tour where she holds the mic super close to her face and moves her arms awkwardly which indicates lip syncing.. so basically we don’t know but i don’t care because we all know she can do it!
To think that she really was just coming off the heels of being attacked on social media and dealing with what was going on with Pete and still being able to perform and absolutely crush it. Man I just want to give her a hug she's been through so much this year but I see her as an example to keep fighting. She's just one person who is still growing and learning. Pain doesn't last forever y'all keep fighting (that was corny but still lol)
Dude, I know. I've just watched this knowing that this song is for Mac, and I just wanted to freaking hug her. I'm so glad that there are people in the comments not just talking about freaking whistle notes. And actually see how hard it was for her to sing this live. Prayers to her, mac, his family, Pete. Everyone. It's so tragic.
I didn't either. I'm kinda happy tho. I'd be heartbroken to come look it up and it be gone. One of my favorite vids.It's the only full performance of Imagine live we have. 🥺♥️
@@gm.8805 no. it’s about how hard her and macs relationship was and how she wishes they just could’ve lived in a perfect world. she says “can you imagine a world like that”
and at the same time she was stressing like she never had before because she was going to do those AMAZING whistle notes. You cam clearly see that after doing them, she felt a lot more relaxed :)
I also remember when she said in a interview that she wanted to take ghostin off of thank you, next and that she would delete the whole album if she could.
i really hope she’s ok. of course she sounded amazing as always, but u can hear the sadness/drain in her voice. i hope she’s doing ok. the sparkle in her eyes is gone. & all the hate on twitter/instagram isn’t helping. the poor girl has gone through so much, yet people keep calling her “attention seeking.” i just hope people understand that’s not the case at all, & i hope ari is ok & has lots of friends & family around her at all times. love u ari, get well soon xoxo
This song probably reminded her of her EX'S.Your right when she sang this she sounded sad and everything you said in your comment is right. I hate it when people call her a attention seeker.SHE IS NOT and Cummon u have to agree with me because she isn't.
It made me so cold. I had to pause the video, make myself some hot chocolate, and turn the fireplace on. After that I came back to play it and she did whistle notes and now my house is on fire. Thank U Ari 💙
At least I'm not alone in noticing that. She won't look at the crowd and only shows the left side of her face at the end of the show. She seemed super uncomfortable. Her voice is still incredible though, and that whistle note 😲
_she works so hard.... us fans know how sad she is in this performance... holding back a breakdown but she wants to give us this art so bad because it heals us AND her. ugh._
Theo Troger at least he died knowing ari was happy but i hate when people talk about him AND ari like i cried sm when he died and that wasn’t because ariana was his ex
it’s so sad that she’s performing this while her life was literally falling apart... i think this was the first performance after mac died .. two months after or something like that
@@eternallymeowin it was actually recorded on September 6th, a day before Mac passed.. she seemed happy in those performances. Crazy how everything can change in seconds.. so glad she is healed right now and in a much better place
can we appreciate Jimmy Fallon's reaction to this? his genuine shock and joy were probably the only things that prevented her from bursting into tears. you can tell they are good friends.
As much as I love the whistles and her voice is being great as normal...I've realized the relatable/ realism she has. Her voice isn't just superb, clean, and understandable but you can feel every emotion in her voice. It expresses so much and I have so much respect for that. Some singers do weird stuff just to be over the top and be the center attention. You go Ariana!
aww she sounds so sad :( she killed those whistle notes and belts though! i hope she doesn’t do them frequently on tour, i don’t want her vocals declining. i hope 2019 is good to her, she’s been through enough shit already, give her a break, internet. Edit: woahhh thanks for the likes! merry christmas by the way ❤️
@joethepokerpro People have blamed her for the deaths in Manchester, she broke off her engagement with Pete, MacMiller died (people blamed her for his death too), has dealt with loads of rumors from the media who say really hateful things, and recently just dealt with some pretty big twitter drama. That's all we know, but I'm sure other things happened that were too personal for her to share
Ash Ketchum1318 I thought you were saying that this comment is underrated and I saw that it had over 1k likes so I thought it’s not so underrated anymore idk it wasn’t funny

Ikr!!! I feel so bad for her, and yes I know that she's been having a very rough year. Hopefully she gets well soon 😏(song from her album heheehe)
Dude, I know. I've just watched this knowing that this song is for Mac, and I just wanted to freaking hug her. I'm so glad that there are people in the comments not just talking about freaking whistle notes. And actually see how hard it was for her to sing this live. Prayers to her, mac, his family, Pete. Everyone. It's so tragic.
yes ;((
She was sick, thats why it sounded like that.
Fr tho
Am I the only one who never knew this was taken down😬
I didn't either. I'm kinda happy tho. I'd be heartbroken to come look it up and it be gone. One of my favorite vids.It's the only full performance of Imagine live we have. 🥺♥️
Same😂
Me too
Same gurl😀
You're not the only legend, dude, it's me too
baby is so talented yet hurting so bad. sending you nothing but love ari.
she sounds beautiful but you can tell she’s struggling trying not to cry. this song is ofc about mac so i can’t even imagine how hard this is for her.
wait i thought it was about pete
@@gm.8805 no. it’s about how hard her and macs relationship was and how she wishes they just could’ve lived in a perfect world. she says “can you imagine a world like that”
@@moonlightbae1695 oh my god that’s so bad, it really must be hard for her
and at the same time she was stressing like she never had before because she was going to do those AMAZING whistle notes. You cam clearly see that after doing them, she felt a lot more relaxed :)
I also remember when she said in a interview that she wanted to take ghostin off of thank you, next and that she would delete the whole album if she could.
A small girl with a big voice. Absolutely incredible!!!
Already happened when Christina Aguilera was a New artist
jonathan coto i didn’t say she was the only one....
@@amillieamillie i got it.. She has a poweful voice
jonathan coto yup powerful and small 🤪
All the 🍩 she had made that voice
ugh, the way she opened up her throat on that belt at 2:03
3:48 Her little dance when Jimmy's complimenting her is the cutest! PROTECT THIS ANGEL AT ALL COSTS!
ITS SO CUTE HER LEGS OMG
I got cat valentine vibes when she did that and i loved it❤️❤️❤️
Something like a little cute penguin omg
Damn I was expecting her to skip the whistle notes but damn she went all in haha.
❤❤❤
me tooooo! love ariana so much!
I was expdcting falsetto lmao
I was expecting falsetto lmao
Why did this sound even better than the official version wow
Thats a stretch sis. She sounds sick or like she was crying. But she still sounds 100x better than most "singers" true lol
Hayley yeah i think she been sad this whole week and crying
SFX in the studio record makes it not as clear as live sound.
Considering the last year she’s had SHE SOUNDS THE BEST. SHE MAKES YOU FEEL IT 👏🏼👏🏼
@@HB-ey2dk Hello can we support each other channel by sub to sub?
She murdered this performance, like comfortably, i love her
She sounds sad... omg im crying
It’s cause it’s about Mac. Remember he died and it was her bf
Ik ik ik.. that’s why it makes me cry
Wait he died like I know who he is but what
She banned it from her tour set list 😭
@@chawanantambu3679 ye he died
i really hope she’s ok. of course she sounded amazing as always, but u can hear the sadness/drain in her voice. i hope she’s doing ok. the sparkle in her eyes is gone. & all the hate on twitter/instagram isn’t helping. the poor girl has gone through so much, yet people keep calling her “attention seeking.” i just hope people understand that’s not the case at all, & i hope ari is ok & has lots of friends & family around her at all times. love u ari, get well soon xoxo
This song probably reminded her of her EX'S.Your right when she sang this she sounded sad and everything you said in your comment is right. I hate it when people call her a attention seeker.SHE IS NOT and Cummon u have to agree with me because she isn't.
Shea Fullett true and i realized that her signature smile whenever she sings isn’t there anymore
Sounds strained and airy but effortlessly hits whistles mmm imagine that being possible
omg i just realized this and now im scared
I love Ariana's red sweater it gives me the chills
when i see sweaters i think of Mac Miller
Andrea Umba calm down
Don't forget them boots.... sooooo fukin sexy ....good southern Italian blood.
Y’all need to calm down. It’s a sweater
It made me so cold. I had to pause the video, make myself some hot chocolate, and turn the fireplace on. After that I came back to play it and she did whistle notes and now my house is on fire. Thank U Ari 💙
This is why Ari deserves all the fame and recognition. She’s been through so much and has worked hard through it all 💖
Her Whistling is something i have waited all my life
bella charles yass
bella charles same
it's so horrible
Mila Nista who cates it horrible least we know it’s live though
You mean, that same thing Mariah Carey has been doing since.... forever?
Ok
i can feel that she's not okay :"(
richell yeah you can hear it in her voice
yeah its like she's crying inside😔
can we say shes actually killing people some way,manchester ,then the ex boyfriend,now the new ex boyfriend,not her fault but damn .....
@@TablossAF No we can't say that.
At least I'm not alone in noticing that. She won't look at the crowd and only shows the left side of her face at the end of the show. She seemed super uncomfortable.
Her voice is still incredible though, and that whistle note 😲
That whistle note is all i need for Christmas
I love how Jimmy praises her for how incredibly talented and amazing she is. ❤
I love how personal thank you next and imagine is, but I don't want her to cry :(. It's like she's always at the tip of crying since forever
Fluffy Alpaca that’s a whole MOOD
The live version wows me more than the studio one!!
I searched for a comment like this! You're so right.
_she works so hard.... us fans know how sad she is in this performance... holding back a breakdown but she wants to give us this art so bad because it heals us AND her. ugh._
Right !!!
FETA ZADAH thanks crying
Right :( in the beginning she sounded like she was about to break down right there.
I know:(
FETA ZADAH ugh yes
this performance makes me cry everytime i watch it. want to give her the biggest hug. one of my favorite performances by her
SHE DID THE WHISTLE NOTES THIS IS NOT A DRILL
popchip oh yea yea
As a Mariah fan this feels weird seeing Whistles being done by someone besides Mariah lol. But Ariana SLAYED That shit!!!!
popchip check out my reactions and whistles attempt ua-cam.com/video/T9CwBePBcKQ/v-deo.html 😂
I feel like she’s been hiding her whistle notes from us and saving it for something special. THIS IS IT 🔥
Roxanna Hernandez yes it is chief.
malcolm, you just don’t know how much love that ari has for you.
also he died thinking ariana is going to stay with pete and that is awful
I wish this was true 💔
Theo Troger at least he died knowing ari was happy but i hate when people talk about him AND ari like i cried sm when he died and that wasn’t because ariana was his ex
I agree. But you know what makes it even more sad? Malcolm left this world thinking that ariana was gonna marry pete.
@Cloud Ariana *yawn* yea yea we been see this everywhere
Ariana: can you
Arianator: YES WE CAN HONEY!!!
it’s so sad that she’s performing this while her life was literally falling apart... i think this was the first performance after mac died .. two months after or something like that
the first performance after mac passed were the bbc giaw, only 1 and stuff. but she didnt know what happened to him until she was going home
@@h.f6364 that was the same day he died tho not after
@@eternallymeowin oh yeah.. oops
I think her wizard and i performance came before this one but I could be wrong though.
@@eternallymeowin it was actually recorded on September 6th, a day before Mac passed.. she seemed happy in those performances. Crazy how everything can change in seconds.. so glad she is healed right now and in a much better place
2:45 Microphone stand falls down to take cover from whistle notes
Faisal OMGGG 😂😂😂
Omggggg Ik 😂❤️❤️
How did I miss that
We love a talented queen
Dyinggg #loveari
she needs to release a studio version of this song with this band omg the build up at the end was so chilling!!!! tHE INSTRUMENTALS SERVED
uwotm8 I can’t listen to the recorded version because I heard this one first and I love it🙊💕💕
EXACTLY i haven't listened to the studio version since this video came out
Awwww Ariana's little dance at 3:46 was so cute 😇
Night Owl ikr
LOL OMG
Ikr🤔💓
A dance?..shit with a voice like that..who noticed a lil dance!..
E Lo! Shut up
can we appreciate Jimmy Fallon's reaction to this? his genuine shock and joy were probably the only things that prevented her from bursting into tears. you can tell they are good friends.
i hope she performs in the grammys
Same and new years eve
Hopefully not this sing this song was disappoint ing
armybabe no,grammy issa underrated rn
Thatis bayu agree!
For sure👌
When she whistled. I felt that the old ariana just came back!😭😭😍
Mickaella Nadado honestly in love with her 😫
Devin Taradalsky ikr! She is like THE most lovable person in the world!!
Mickaella Nadado r and b ari yessss honeymoon avenue vibes
me too
When was the whistle
When she sings “imaaaagine a world like that” I tear up bruh 😂
Same and its not funny she misses Malcolm this song is for him D;
@@eat7230 I never said it was funny. I laughed because of my dumbass tearing up 😂
Listening to her over the years and this gurl been continuously improving on her vocals and voice control. Unbelievable honestly❤
Waits for the whistle tones with great anticipation...
Update: she KILLED it
trha2222 ugh yet here u r not even 15 mins after this was posted
Yaasss
trha2222 yeah yeah those were awful and there’s something wrong with your ears, go to the doctor
SAME!!!!! ME ASF ASFHJUDFMOTWS
I wasn’t ready for them 😭😭😭😍
As much as I love the whistles and her voice is being great as normal...I've realized the relatable/ realism she has. Her voice isn't just superb, clean, and understandable but you can feel every emotion in her voice. It expresses so much and I have so much respect for that. Some singers do weird stuff just to be over the top and be the center attention. You go Ariana!
Remember when haters said she sings without emotions. Now, nobody can say that.
aww she sounds so sad :( she killed those whistle notes and belts though! i hope she doesn’t do them frequently on tour, i don’t want her vocals declining. i hope 2019 is good to her, she’s been through enough shit already, give her a break, internet.
Edit: woahhh thanks for the likes! merry christmas by the way ❤️
Antisocial Cacti yeah, I think she has to rest sometime 😞, I love her
I think she's hidding from ghosts when she's working. That's why she's a machine this year...
@joethepokerpro People have blamed her for the deaths in Manchester, she broke off her engagement with Pete, MacMiller died (people blamed her for his death too), has dealt with loads of rumors from the media who say really hateful things, and recently just dealt with some pretty big twitter drama. That's all we know, but I'm sure other things happened that were too personal for her to share
Amethyst.Glade Srry, what was the ‘big twitter drama’?
Antisocial Cacti she really seems sad 😔😔
that “why cant you ???” at 2:19 just hits different.
*studio version has left the chat*
edit: thank you guys so much for all the likes ❤️❤️❤️
Underrated accurate comment
@@johnroebetvista1992 I have good news
@@clockworkalmond1032 what is it?
Ash Ketchum1318 I thought you were saying that this comment is underrated and I saw that it had over 1k likes so I thought it’s not so underrated anymore idk it wasn’t funny
So true
