Yes, she was struggling, but "the waaaayyyyy" (from 3.07 to 3.10) transformed into a downward run is a stroke of pure musical genius and extraordinary vocal skills. Amazing!
I guess this was the last time she sang this song in the original key. Don't know why she made the key higher here when she lowered it during the incredible Daydream era...
Is very odd how she didn't lower the key considering she did struggle, but her tone, agility and power is still impressive. It's even odder how nowadays she doesn't have that elasticity or power, but attempts the higher notes?? I know the key is lower now, but even still.
I don't know a singer with such respect for her fans as Mariah. ALWAYS showed affection for all of us. A great artist, an unparalleled talent. Until today!
I love this performance, it's very raw and sincere. It doesn't sound dubbed, because her dubbed performances are flawless and here there are a lot of "flaws" like the run at 3:46. I believe this is completely live, and the notes she hits at 2:38 and 3:12 are surprising considering her voice's condition this night.
Both the notes you mentioned are sadly dubbed… but it does look like she hit the eb5 in ‘lord’! So if we ever find the undubbed we will probably hear an amazing ‘lord’
After watching her Music Box performances, it's really sad to see her how she struggles singing this song here, but it was smart from her to ask the audience to sing along since she couldn't handle the entire song by herself. She would have gotten really tired. Love MC
Tone is beautiful. But it just seems so weird to randomly go back to singing it in higher key when it was even lowered in her prime years. She dodged basically the whole song
I watched this decades ago...this in japan live..HERO IS ALWAYS WONDERFUL RAW LIVE🎤🎵🎶👍👍👏...doing promo of CANT TAKE THAT AWAY ( that was dubbed though )
This performance was so weird!!! Why did she sing it in the higher key but dodged all the high notes? I guess they couldnt find the track with the lower key
I’m guessing she was planning to keep it in original key permanently after the Pavarotti show but then after struggling with this and then her voice tiring out even more from other songs she decided to keep it low, it’s the only thing I can think of
Maybe because at this point her voice was more comfortable with singing more parts in the original key rather than the lowered ver. idk sometimes when I sing too its like this where dending on the day my voice will need a different key but at the same time i would sing better parts of another key.
@@ARlANACAREY how do u know if this performance is dubbed and not just lipped? why arent these vocals the raw undubbed vocals that the audience witnessed and heard?
@@DarrenHazel it's very tricky tbh. At some point the performance sounds like it had dubbed studio vocals over it , and there's a possibility Mariah only did a B4 in 'lord' bc the B4 improv would fit with how she sang 'knows' then they just dubbed it with the studio E5.
sweetheart MARIAH SOUNDED 1 BILLION PERCENT AMAZING WHEN SHE STRUGGLE SINGIN COMPARE TO YOUNGE VOCALIST TODAY KATY PERRY? TAYLOT SWIFT? NAAAAH NOT EVEN CLOSE!
Is it just me or does it seem like she is suffering from a sort of manic episode during this performance. Her antics and all over the place and kind of random.
This was also during a very difficult time in her personal life You may find a few similar performances of other songs during the 1999-2001 timeframe (not all songs, just a handful). She was very tired at this time and was not getting adequate nutrition nor rest. I appreciate the performance and I appreciate her stylistic choice to "the way" in a descent of notes. Many artists do not have the range to have that option so kudos to Mariah for that and for giving her best at the time. I enjoy all of her performances.

Ela cantou essa música 100% live, mas a edição cortou alguns pedaços e colocaram a versão de estúdio
"Just hold on" 2:54 I love how she lowers and raises her body in sync with her voice that lowers and rises.
That "just hold on" at 2:54 is AMAZING.
"I like when I hear you sing..." what a beautiful soul
The way she dodge high notes is so amazing. The different tone she mades is like no other.
She is a good musician and know how to arranged melodies especially when she tired
3:07 - 3:10
2:39 the playback on "Lord" blends so well with her voice
0:23 "heart" does too.
Fervid Amid the Dandelions I didn't notice "heart" is also playback😂
Japan is so good at TV editing 😂
Lol 3:13 "comes" is also playback.
SHE NEED TO LIVE IN JAPAN LMAO
I guess this was the last time she sang this song in the original key.
Don't know why she made the key higher here when she lowered it during the incredible Daydream era...
She sang hero in the original key also during the Pavarotti and Friends, but in a better way.
I think she lowered it so she can do more vocal acrobatics
@@mariakorrey1875 Exactly
I think she lowered it so she can hit the G5, otherwise it's risky for her to sing a G#5
@@OmarHawari im confused. Why is that?
@@thekarlberonio2139 because the G#5 is higher thus harder

Also Mariah is majestically beautiful here. I still love her look during the Rainbow era.
She wanted to sing like this until she couldnt. :(
700gsteak lmfao. shut up
@@akosiiannn 💀💀
Even though the lower track is lower, I think this key is easier to sing, I don't know how to explain it, but this key is easier 🌟🌟
Mariah on her worst day destroys most on their best 😍
Jack Walker not really
Jack Walker Definitely not in this performance
Destroys all
She was tired here, look at her preformance with that guy with the different language
But the question remains why did she not use the other hero track with the lower key
I like this version, His tone is beautiful and the climax lower wow.

I noticed that most of MC’s performances in Japan are live. I envy all of the lambs in Japan who were able to watched her performed live. 😢
That’s because they adore her there unlike here in the US where we scrutinize her for everything.
She sounds so beautiful on the original key
I love "the way"
I think this is my favorite performance of Hero. I like they way she sang in the climax in a downward run. Amazing!
I have to agree 100%
Her tone was incredible❤
2:38 well that clear E5 was unexpected. The playback kinda blended in with her live vocals
Relik_star22 I think it’s dubbed (the studio vocals appear to random for it to be lipped). She likely did a B4.
Solo12313 yeah probably but like it blends really nicely
Relik_star22 I agree, it reminds me of the “Hold on” attempts in 1998
It’s live, Mariah tends to hit random high not like that, even her vocals tired.
@@martygonzales615 i feel like its dubbed with studio E5 though idk
the bridge was a surprise :O
Legend says Mariah still haven't brought a person up on that stage to this day.

2:34 the ascending runs inspired many singers today.
Descending runs in the "the wayyyy"
She looks absolutely pretty her skin FLAWLESS and hair silky shiny

癡風迷也愛聽Mariah Carey唱歌😍😘🎤🎵🎶
2:55 issss perfect. 💗
I love how she lowers and raises her body in sync with her voice that lowers and rises.
For me this is being smart. Mariah already proved herself since the 90's that she can SANG the phonebook.
thats what i love about the queen MARIAH CAREY when she struggle she sound extra ordinary unlike other vocalist
On her worst she sounded much better than me on my best days :((
before the climax was so epic :3

I watched this decades ago...this in japan live..HERO IS ALWAYS WONDERFUL RAW LIVE🎤🎵🎶👍👍👏...doing promo of CANT TAKE THAT AWAY ( that was dubbed though )
Climax "the WAYYYYYYY...." has been lipped for many years.....this LIVE lower register is GOOD!!!infact....
2:39 wtf just happened. That woke me the fugg up lmao
She gave a verbal cue in the beginning after "there's a hero" there's a verbal letting out of air she was pissed
She's so funny dodging the high notes by letting the audience sing it lmao
...yet clever...
Hahahhaa love it
yet smart and compassionate
2:41 is sooooo goooddddd
Back to the original key.
Nanding Antonio ...that she just performed, which is difficult to do, not everyone has that ability to their credit.
That voice 😭😭😭😭
Ended 2006 Mariah

What show was this?
Is it me or she's already sick of the song already that she had to ask for audiences participants to sing along....
1:21
The tone was great but that's about it. She's struggling. At-least she looked great.
All singers have weak and strong points. Mariah has given more than enough great live vocal performannces to prove she is one of the greats.
I don’t see and feel any struggle here. this is 1999-riah’s brand... dodging notes in exchange of creative runs, her musicality is great haha
I see this more as changing the original, which I like. Her voice and tone is sooo soo beautifully

Nope just you. Your biased view is leading to delusions and paranoia.
No, but she is nervous and tired. she starts sighing at 0:20, because the key is original from the studio...
Wkwkwkkwkw she couldn’t reach the high notes 😅
Singing is not about high notes. Singing is about interpretation of the song. Singera choose notes which they think suits the interpretation.
she cant even hit the high note, What problem with her voice?
Her voice was really exhausted then
