Please everybody give Tom Tom Club loads of credit.

@@lourencovieira5424 where is he? Where is the sky from? OK maybe the Wright brothers were the first to “fly a significant distance” No, they did not create an airplane that carries more than one person. But they are credited as being the first in flight and look at the back of 25¢ Quarters for Ohio and North Carolina. Both say “First in Flight” The Wright brothers are from Ohio and they first flew in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
@@eamonhanley9909 this isn’t copying its sampling… at least educate yourself before making dumb statements. Tom tom club were paid for mariah to use their song
@MotherClucker Um, she used it pretty good too. There's been other samples of this song that were MEH and frankly, he could be referring to samples in general of any song.
I'm reminded of the creativity and musicianship of Rick James being "enhanced" by the visual of hot-air-balloon pants and the high-minded sentiment of "can't touch dis!" 😐
@@williamlane8302 i mean to be fair they're not different versions of the same song, Mariah didnt cover it. she sampled it and wrote a new melody and lyrics over it. ofc its a lot more pop/r&b influenced so it just depends what kind of music you like better.
Personally I like Mariah's song better because its more of an actual song in my opinion, tom tom's version is an iconic sound one of the best in the world...however I don't really consider it a song because its just a few whispers and a sick melody in my opinion! But they're both GREAT!!
SORRY THE ORIGINAL TOM TOM CLUB GENIUS OF LOVE VERSION IS WAY BETTER THEN CAME THE GRANDMASTER FLASH and THE FURIOUS 5 VERSION CALLED ITS NASTY not no garbage ass MARIAH CAREY LAME and BORRRRRRRRRRRING 1980s THE ERA OF REAL MUSIC
Mariah Carey butchers a Great Song by walking all over it with just a bunch of stupid ohhhs and ahhhs. It's similar to when a DJ won't stop talking when the song is already playing annoying as hell. (former on-air DJ)
Tom Tom club is legendary, but I forgot how gorgeous Mariah was back then. That hair and that outfit 🔥

Orlando Drummond disagrees with the part about creating working planes. Drummond is the true father of airplanes.
@@AD3DuBs I never heard of him before. Is he also on the back of a .25¢ quarters, for the states of Ohio and North Carolina?
Santos Dumont invented the airplane

Mariah version: Lively, upbeating, vibe You could dance and get slayed by the vocals.
Tom Tom: Relaxing, the vibe, and chilling.
I’ll be the first to say both versions are good. Different sound to both.
Love how some people have to bring down other artists to raise their own faves here in the comments.
It's called giving credit to the people who actually came up with the idea, instead of giving it all to an American Idol contestant like Carey
@@draneym2003 nobody cares about some unknown band, it's Mariah Carey's Fantasy that is popular.
I think is the other way around every one now wants that beat
Coping other people's music is not cool.Shes better than that.
Too much Kareoke out there.

How to use a sample>>>>>>
…instead of wasted it like some artists do 🤷🏾♀️
Who you talking about? 😐
@@Uniquelysomething it’s very obvious

Quando eu criança me acabava de dançar kkkkkk mas festinhas
I'd love to hear a bit of 'Chewing Gum' by Annie thrown into the mix too.
Tom Tom Club all day. But Mariah killed it for the day and age
What a great cover!
Fantástico tempo bom
CARAIO JIRAYA MANDOU MUITO
Genius of love .... the most sampled song on the planet.
No. No, no, no.
She improved it! But both versions are great!
I'm reminded of the creativity and musicianship of Rick James being "enhanced" by the visual of hot-air-balloon pants and the high-minded sentiment of "can't touch dis!" 😐
Because of this song... it made me a LAMB 🐑.
Didn't she sample genius of love a 2nd time in her song Heartbreaker??.. i always thought so ..but its more down played under the beat
I just think that Careys version sounds like a guitar solo.. Without the song, it would never happen.. Just an opinion.
Tom Tom club 💪
tom tom sample I got it but damm Mariah made it into a a hot 100 #1 song tho! no cap back in 95 and with OBD made it a Blueprint y'all playing
Esse beat já foi usado em várias músicas.

Obrigada ☺️
Lol....there is no competition. This is Tom Tom Clubs song. They blow Mariah away.
Not versus in that context, it’s what they use when mixing or doing a smash up of two songs
@@CoExist64 ... well, Mariah is very pretty and she makes more money than me, so I have respect for her. I just like tom tom clubs better.
@@williamlane8302 Mariahs version and tom toms version are both equally excellent.

You are just bitter why Mariah's version made #1
Mariah is a good singer but she ain't no Tina.
She is a better vocalist but does not have Tina's style
Tina who? You must be talking about turner because there ain’t no way
She can sing better
Lmao this is a joke guys, Mariah is one of the best IF not the best vocalist in the world, along Whitney and Celine
@@w4ka997 Tina turner stayed getting beat like meat so no
Mariah Carey PLAGED🤣😂
Mariah has a very indistinctive sound ,every song sounds the same ..She robbed tom tom club
only one of them is a number one hit
@@w4ka997 Thanks to the tom tom club
@@w4ka997 with Tina W. still cashing the checks.
Why is this so nightmarish
Because you haven’t opened your third eye yet…

Mariah destroyed the song
you mean made it better? hence why the song was number one on the hot 100 and has been sold more than 5 million times in the us?
Mariah Carey sampled, hers is worse
Why don't you make a somg so you will know how hard it is?
No it’s not, genius of love is nothing without the beat
Simple is the best
