14 weeks at #1… the longest running song by a SOLO ARTIST IN HISTORY! No collabs, no 30 remixes, no payola… PURE TALENT AND SALES AND AIRPLAY! QUEEN! 🐐
Still sends chills up my spine every time I watch this video. I think every man would have been on cloud nine to have been her hubby or boyfriend back then.just imagine her uttering those words " baby please" at you.
She's the only one who can deliver a studio version live on stage EVERYTIME. I can't count how many times I got disapointed listening to artist sing a song that I loved live, and not hiting the spot. Mariah's so not the case. Legend.
Tyler Mills Utter lies; the "please" is in falsetto as well but it sounds different plus on Ellen she also transitions to falsetto with "When you left I lost a part of *me"* unlike here. No one forced you here; so leave with your fallacious lip-syncing claims!
So, on a cold and sunny afternoon, I was home early from my classes. I turned on the tv and Oprah is on. For a few seconds, I contemplated flipping through channels until Oprah introduced Mariah Carey. Now, I never really was a fan of Mariah Carey until she did this....an absolutely stunning and orgasmic display of vocals here. My initial reaction was: Holy Sh-t! I was literally blown away and jumped off my chair during the last 40-45 seconds of her performance...the palpable forcefulness, vigor, emotion, and energy exuded by her totally mesmerized me. Today, I am still taking a trip down this memory lane and wondering with envy who is the incredibly luck man whom she sings to at home.
I love to see Mariah go crazy whenever she sings the end of this song! It always cracks me up because you would act like a crazy woman if you’re in love and you’re trying to get your man back. She’s staying true to the lyrics and emotion of the song. It’s awesome. I’ve seen her sing it without going nuts and it’s not as good. I like the hand movements, hair flipping crazy girl vibes! 👏🌸
So was it playback or not, I saw people arguing both?! First I was like no way its without playbay, but I thought its not quite like in studio but not 80% so I was like damn if this is raw: incredible Looking forward to quality answers
THE BEST VOICE OF ALL TIME IN THE HISTORYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY... PHENOMENOM VOCAL MARIAH. QUEEN OF MUSIC MARIAH , YOU ARE INSPIRATIONS, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL.. YOU ARE, EXQUISTE, DIVINE, ELEGAAAANT, CLASSIC, LEGENDARY, PERFECT EVERTHING U R EVERYTHING! #1
the way she says 'thank you' with real sincerity - I can feel that - she may have been mega-rich but she's gone through things and the way she responds after the song I feel reflects that sense of 'coming through'
Yeah she did that and she knew it! She had smile her face even before the song wrapped. Well done Mariah! Wow. Her voice is astonishing! I don't care how many times you hear her sing it just seems almost unreal to hear someone with them kind of pipes.
And at 3:12, when she sings "who's going to talk to me till the sun comes up", there's a slight transition from chest voice to falsetto when she trails off "up"; it's sounds so natural and yet it is actually so controlled (I've seen her sing it the same way in other live performances), what an amazing juxtaposition.
lmaoooo at you thinking this was live. She moves her mic around during the song and the volume never changes while she does it. Its ok to admit she is lip syncing. Its not that serious....
She wrote this song to be so tailor made for her voice that I’ve never heard anyone sound right doing it. And don’t get me wrong-i love good covers and have loved many random covers of other Mariah songs over the years, but this one is oddly untouchable. I’ve seen vids of people doing their thing and matching it note for note, but something about the lyrical phrasing always makes them sound more constricted and nasal than Mariah even in more recent years. But sweet Jesus in 2005-2006, even on a raspier night, those E5s felt like they were bursting from the depths of her despair. And it really makes the difference between the song sounding almost whiny vs Mariah sounding like a literal force of nature almost demanding that her lost love return to restore the void left after his loss. Tbh, even though the lyrics fit a lost love/breakup storyline better-I’ve always felt like Mariah’s delivery on both the artistic and technical side conjures raw widow grief. Like softly expressing the loss and regret for getting caught up on small things and lashing out by telling her man she didn’t love him anymore, but then having to live with the burden of those being her last words. Building up to such desperation to take it back and have just a little more time that it’s almost like she’s trying to resurrect him, the anguish is so intense.
So well said, and basically all of her songs are tailor made for her because usually covers of her songs are not so good, with we belong together especially the climax, her voice soars, its beautiful, high notes are pleasant and open, she projects in such a resonant way that it sounds majestic, people tend to sound reallllly really metallic and almost like screaming, because its a long climax and she can handle it beautifully, people usually get exhausted and is 99% not pleasant
Não existe e nunca vai existir nesse Planeta 🌍 inteiro Uma Cantora e compositora tão Fantástica e tão Brilhante e maior Voz e Agudo Vocal espetácular que existe nessa vida ❤️😍😍😍😍 Mariah Carey Oficial Você é maior inspiração de e a maior Estrela Músical desse mundo ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ como eu Amo essa lindíssima IDULA MARAVILHOSA Mariah Carey Oficial ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This song brought my partner and me together after a terrible break up I heard it and I ran back to her arms thank you for that Mariah. Unfortunately we did not grow old together we still had that time together ❤
2:06 This is all I picture whenever I hear this part of the song. Lmao like what is Oprah girl doing with her hands and what song is she singing cuz it sure as hell ain't this one.
Its crazy to think that only 13 years before this she was performing Vision of Love and If Its Over on the show. How much she had changed in that time!
I don't have words strong enough to express my admiration so beautiful it is... Only Mariah can make such notes... It is sublime and thank you from the bottom of my heart for putting this video. I am a singer and it is a pure joy to listen to her often...
Damn, I stepped away from doing the dishes while listening to this. Then I heard the audience clapping and roar. I had to see what they were clapping for. She's a classic artist. That last verse the way she expressed herself was really the old school way to do things. Thank you to whomever uploaded this gem.
This is the most PERFECT regret love song of ALL TIME in the entire UNIVERSE! Nineteen years later (2024) & I can still picture the video & it still breaks me up. 💔
Oprah: "If you don't have it, you're so out of it!"
**proceeds to sing every word incorrectly** lmao what a queen
Robbie omg😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
T.E. V. 💯🤣🤣
I love Oprah. Watch it😠
@@dt6556 Nobody asked you... Who even are you to be telling someone to watch it? 😂
Lmao lol
2005 was such a special time. She was back on top, looked and sounded great.
musicguy713 you have to include 2008
She will make the greateast come Back 2019 ❤️
XxHey_Itz_JBEEExX I don't think she was on top in 2008. It was just one song..
'95, '97, and '05 belonged to MC...💕
NiñaPreciosa she has so far 😂
Crazy how many words this song has and how she just keeps it flowing
The best female singer ever.
Not even close
Mariah’s big sigh of relief at the end, “I nailed it” says that this definitely was live.
2:07 me trying understand and sing along with kpop
LMAO sameee
Hahahaha
lmfao
💀💀💀💀
BAHAHAHAHA
It's crazy how much I love every time she looks at the crowd with that smile after slaying everyone with her performance
The Lambest of the Lambs -listening in 2017 xxxooo love her xxxxoooo
The Lambest of the Lami ikr
@@doniellestenson5231now 2024 you see how fast time flew by?
That last note gives me chills every single time 😍
She still slaying this song with her voice a whole 16 years later! Yes she definitely is.
Red this and felt REALLY old 😪
The Best One❤❤❤
Love Her!❤
14 weeks at #1… the longest running song by a SOLO ARTIST IN HISTORY! No collabs, no 30 remixes, no payola… PURE TALENT AND SALES AND AIRPLAY! QUEEN! 🐐
*Longest run at #1 by a female solo artist (tied with I Will Always Love You by Whitney Houston)
@@mikayyyyyyyyyyy thats right ! As it was is now the longest !!
@@isaiasdemaurizio7337So fraudulent. Mariah and Whitney deserved to tie that record forever
One sweet day was 16weeks on top
Be Without You Mary J. Blige was 15 weeks
OPRAH!! Gurl, we love you.....but, who don't know the words to We Belong Together!?!?!?!!?
all the world and everybody know this song yes this song so famous because the singer is the best diva in the world !
howudoin135 I WAS THINKING THE SAAAAME THING. Lol!!!
Lol if you dont know it your so out of it Oprah girllllllllll.
howudoin135 LMAO
in fairness.. this was a new song duh. she was there to promote that new single
Absolutely incredible, that chest/head voice is just Magic.
Orgasmic effect from 2:54 onwards.
Still sends chills up my spine every time I watch this video. I think every man would have been on cloud nine to have been her hubby or boyfriend back then.just imagine her uttering those words " baby please" at you.
@WhatJoshHasToSay creepin ass jugga
@anna peroni what the hell are you talking about? Mad for what?
@anna peroni it’s all love!
Man that ending is insane. The attitude and craziness while she’s nailing it
This will remain one of the greatest performance ever !
I thought so when I first watched this performance live and still think so. absolutely stunning.
Oprah tried it lol acting like you she knew smh. 😂😂
James Vasquez 😂😂😂
I remember watching this as my mom did my hair and then she went out and bought the cd right after ugh I miss the early 2000s
That genuinely grateful "thank you" in the end with the glistening eyes such a diva moment ❤️
So much emotion in the way she said «Baby please » PERFECTION
She's the only one who can deliver a studio version live on stage EVERYTIME. I can't count how many times I got disapointed listening to artist sing a song that I loved live, and not hiting the spot. Mariah's so not the case. Legend.
Hayley Williams always delivers.
Well Check for Regine Velasquez. You will be in awed mahdear
Umm Whitney?
@@ew7859 No. Busca oficio.
@@yanlamoureux6805 I believe she’s the lead singer of Paramore
Oprah pretending she knows the lyrics is the funniest thing.😄😄
I know right!!! Oprah at 2:08 🤣🤣🤣 what’s happening here Oprah!?
She's always doing that. She did the same thing to a TLC song.
Kkkkk
Right !!
Cringey as hell
3:03 The way she said "baby please" should be in the studio version too lol
evooms right
evooms no there is not
Pandu Miharja read what they said. They said "it should be in the studio version" not that it is in the studio version
Tyler Mills Utter lies; the "please" is in falsetto as well but it sounds different plus on Ellen she also transitions to falsetto with "When you left I lost a part of *me"* unlike here. No one forced you here; so leave with your fallacious lip-syncing claims!
GarageStudio they said SHOULD
Her voice gives me chills!!!
I love Mariah Carey. Her voice, lyrics I mean she’s classic. Cant get enough of her.

Mariah is magical , Love her so much definitely one of the greatest artist ever.
It IS like a FAIRYTALE 🥺
Her hair was FIRE here!! Ohh she loved her extensions that era
Oprah. Sashay away.
Norielle Serrano I'm dead stop. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Norielle Serrano I’m fucking sick !!!! 😂
LOL
Fo'real!😂
GRABE GRABE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
She gave it all for this performance
What an incredible performance. No one will ever compare. 💯
I could listen to that ending climax a million times and never get tired of it
2nd Semester of 2024 and stil on the top of the playlist!

The fact that she sounded so much alike in the studio! Only Mariah could do that! She's the best😍 I love you forever Queen❤
It’s simply BREATHTAKING‼️‼️ she sounded the same as the studio version. What a VOICE ‼️‼️
@@man4shaki hmmmm gee i wonder why....
No ma'am Whitney Houston is the queen The Voice and nobody compares to Whitney
So was it playback or not, I saw people arguing both?!
First I was like no way its without playbay, but I thought its not quite like in studio but not 80% so I was like damn if this is raw: incredible
Looking forward to quality answers
Climax was live, her voice was a lot more raspier, i have the original in losses format and have studio speakers and headsets,
THE BEST VOICE OF ALL TIME IN THE HISTORYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY... PHENOMENOM VOCAL MARIAH. QUEEN OF MUSIC MARIAH , YOU ARE INSPIRATIONS, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL.. YOU ARE, EXQUISTE, DIVINE, ELEGAAAANT, CLASSIC, LEGENDARY, PERFECT EVERTHING U R EVERYTHING! #1
Song of the Decade!!!! 👑🎶🙌🏽💕
the way she says 'thank you' with real sincerity - I can feel that - she may have been mega-rich but she's gone through things and the way she responds after the song I feel reflects that sense of 'coming through'
THE NUMBER 1 most listened too song in America! --- I loved that intro by Oprah! 😂
And little did we know it ended up being the 2000s song of the decade
The coloratura in her voice is just out of this world…that’s what makes her so special and magical.
hhhh becuse mc awys lipsng qeen
@@mercedestada4028 You can’t even write in a decent way 💀…We all know Mariah’s voice is magical, go back to your playground
Yeah she did that and she knew it! She had smile her face even before the song wrapped. Well done Mariah! Wow. Her voice is astonishing! I don't care how many times you hear her sing it just seems almost unreal to hear someone with them kind of pipes.
She got it. Nothing but talent there.
3:03 that "baby please" DAMN.
And at 3:12, when she sings "who's going to talk to me till the sun comes up", there's a slight transition from chest voice to falsetto when she trails off "up"; it's sounds so natural and yet it is actually so controlled (I've seen her sing it the same way in other live performances), what an amazing juxtaposition.
CJ C It actually transitions into whistle register. Because of her nodules, her voice naturally goes into the whistle register when it cracks
The Lambianator That’s actually so beautiful😩
Thats what i want to hear but will NOT skip to that part😂
I agree you so much.!
Even her laugh at the end also harmonised with the music 😄😄
3:03 beautifully proves that this is *completely live!*
Yes I remember when this performance aired on television and it was completely live.
She sound amazing.
People should stop casting doubt on Mariah. Seriously. She's at the very top
That part is but the end is not. Her voice “fades” while the mic is at the same distance. Then they turn her mic back on for an adlib
lmaoooo at you thinking this was live. She moves her mic around during the song and the volume never changes while she does it. Its ok to admit she is lip syncing. Its not that serious....
@@dashhill443 that’s because she adjust the volume of her VOICE
Mariah's tone is unique !! Pure velvet, she's an amazing Singer!!!
With this performance i become a lamb. What a voice! 😍
wow that was amazing, she is the greatest female vocalist in history!
Reuben Wills I know it. Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion and Aretha Franklin are the best
And Ella Fitzgerald
U got that right!!
Ella Fitzgerald, Barbra Streisand, Judy Garland and Shirley Bassey also, but my favorite will always be miss Carey
Reuben Wills GaGa has her beat!!

Exactly! Mariah just sings this from such a personal place that it truly is untouchable.

Go listen to Joe’s cover…the best cover of this song and Mariah was impressed
I love how humble she is. She doesn't just pray to sing she prays in life in general.
A voz dela tava incrível aqui 💞 ela estava tão emocionada em ser ovacionada pelo público
OMG
Oprah: the number one most listened to song in America. if you don't have it, you're so out of it.
also Oprah: 0:53 , 2:08

One of the best songs for a road trip
What a presence this woman has. It is another level really. Captures all the attention wow
Mariah asked me " come back, baby, please", then I always come back here to see this stunning performance.

She has such a beautiful voice! You go Mariah!
Stunning performance
Of course we know how great she is on high notes, but damn! No one can do that low notes like she is rapping with such awesome tone...
Those whistles were EVERYTHING. She gave it that night ‼️‼️
When her voice is rested and healthy (she doesn't breathe whilst singing) she is the greatest voice ever ❣️✨❤️✨❤️💯❤️
The audio is perfect. I FOREVER love Mariah Carey. 🕊️🤍
3:48 the sweetest "thank you" ever 🥲

at 2:55 she looks at the crowd and tells them "get ready to bow down to the queen bitches" with her eyes xD
No
