Mariah is heavily inspired by gospel music so a lot of her music, especially her early work, has gospel elements to it. This performance was 1990. This was her first single she ever put out. React to her performance of Can't Let Go on SNL 1991.
Her singing live is pretty epic, but generally speaking, live performances of early 90s were better in general. The instruments were real, less eye catching gimmicks and real performances.
This is not her debut performance, but it's one of the first. Her first was on Arsenio Hall on June 1st, this one was on October 27th. Vision of Love is her debut single. It's one of the songs that were on her demo tape that went to her first album, which came out in 1990 (30 years ago). I think she wrote it at 17 yo and Mariah says it's about her getting a record deal. She's also releasing her memoir this year to celebrate her career milestone/anniversary, and rumor has it it's gonna be called "I had a vision of love", which makes sense. The song was also, in my opinion, the perfect showcase of her talent to the world because it displays her lower range, mid belts, high belts, her whistle register and incredible ability of doing melismas (lotes of notes within the same syllable). Two fun facts: She never lipped this song, not a single note, till this day. Beyoncé said this was the song that made her want to become a singer.
shes the first and probably only singer to refuse to lip sync on soul train; I think it was cheaper to have the artist come on and lip sync or something lol
@@MsLuvmusic81 I just watched hervon Soul Train. I knew Soul Train normally lip sync, but after your comment, I'm not surprise she choose to go only live.
Beyonce and Christina took vocal lessons after this song came out, they both wanted to sing like that but they were already singers. I wouldn't go as far as Mariah I has never lip-synced this song because she use vocal stems during her life performance on her day dream tour for vision of love.
Beyoncé said in one of her early interviews that Mariah's "Vision Of Love" is the song that made her want to become a singer and pursue a career in music. Mariah is an true inspiration for many singer of nowadays !!!
You give such positive vibes. I like the fact that you have featured Mariah quite a bit and it seems like you are understanding why people become fans of her. 1990
90’s. Back then it was about VOCALS. Today’s is more about beats and visuals. Mariah and Whitney would sing one song and that was it. People were happy and satisfied.
The reason Mariah Carey became such a phenomenon is Bc she could give a performance like this everytime. For years! It’s amazing the music she gave us for so many years.
Man, I'm loving your reactions. I mean, the way you manage the details. So good! This night SHE also performed a song called Can't Let Go. She killed it as well! Go take a look! Love and peace from Brazil! *search for Can't Let Go at SNL
@@ThatsSoKatie44 I don't really like the Arsenio performance that much. She seemed a little tired, but the whistle in the end is really angelic, the best by far.
Young Mariah was a VOCALIST! She could hit all the notes perfectly live. That was her claim to fame. A lot has changed since then but we all remember those good old Mariah days. ✨
This is really emotional for me seeing someone so young enjoying the music of 1990 . - its quite validating and is refreshing this generation seeing WHY she has a legacy rather than focussing on the persona she/the media has created since this performance over the last 30 years.
This was in 1990 and there were a lot of good live performances back then but when she came onto the scene with this song she blew everyone away. She took things to a whole new level and left everybody else in the dust. She had at least 1 #1 hit in every year of the 90s (60 weeks).. so 12% of the decade she had the #1 song and then there was everybody else.
Now you should do BET vision of love blueprint performance lol Also listen to the one by Mariah and then watch the one live shining through the rain concert. You will not be disappointed!!!
I miss this Mariah, when she first came out. Natural, beautiful curly hair. She was very shy, and humble (way before she turned into a Diva). Oh my Lord! This was her first song. Unreal, the talent! Fyi, her Mom is an opera singer, so you know where Mariah gets her voice from!
This was Mariah’s debut song, the one that put her on the map, this performance is beyond epic and heavenly, her vocals are perfection. Actually this song was the one that put the melisma technique on the mainstream pop scene, R&B scene and although the gospel scene as well. Even this song was the one the influence a generation of singers of today in their singing skills, she really is a game changer
her first single and first hit - been in love with her songs ever since 1990; everyone would stop what they were doing to hear this song when it came on the radio with that first hard hitting note!
Another great female vocalist from the 70's: Minnie Riperton. Her first big hit: "Loving You" My favorites were several tracks from an earlier album: "Come to my Garden". Her daughter is the comic: Mya Rudolph
I remember the first time I heard this song, well technically saw the video. I looked at my then boyfriend and said that girl is going to be a superstar. It's still my favorite song of hers.
The 90s was a legendary time, only the greats! Most people consider the Vocal Trinity to be the GOATS and they all came from this time period with Witheny being first, Mariah second and Celine last. You should react to Lisa Fischer - How Can I Ease The Pain Live she's also one of the greatest and again from the 90s lol
Her debut performance was on Arsenio hall show . This was the debut era . I’m glad you enjoying Mariah her vocals are out of this world . Could you react to Another great r&b singer Tamia stranger in my house . Mariah Carey, Whitney HOUSTON , Celine Dion are know as the vocal trinity they are the best to do it in the last 32 years. This performance was 1990
I hope you listened to the studio version of this song. It’s the first song I ever heard of hers and I still remember that moment to this day. The way she sings with herself on that track is amazing FIRE 🔥
You should check out Mariah's performance joy to the world, Live at st. John the divine. She went beast mode in that performance. And i also think you should do a reaction to whitney houston, live performances as well. She was a good vocalist too.
She actually wrote this song in dedication of God, the sing itself is about Gods grace in her life. She was heavily inspired by gospel and hip hop throughout her early life, those are her roots, the record label wanted something else though.
How dumb can you be lol. That’s not what it’s about and even if it was she’s saying God let her down 🙄She also very specifically said she never wanted to do a full gospel album. She has her own style quit acting like a crazed Bible thumper.
If you think nobody mainstream is giving vocals, you should really react to Beyoncé sing Halo live at Global Citizen Festival in 2018. this performance is amazing and Bey is an outstanding vocalist
This is an iconic song did you know that this song inspired a lot of singers to song including beyonce who said this song made her want to sing they are good friends in real life also if you could react to a non singing Mariah video called the legacy of Mariah Carey it will inform you a lot about her influence to music
This was 1990-91. In this era, If A Singer Sang Live , They Better be able to Shanggg. Mariah has the Uncanny Ability to Have her Live Performances sound Like it was Studio Session, Especially during the 90's 🤯🤯
react to "it's like that" music vid !! its a great song & you'll surely like it btw buce reaction !! this is her first no. 1 single :)) she has 19 btw 💌
I think her first performance was Aresenio Hall in 1990. But I believe this one was from 1990 as well. Also you should react to her singing If Only You Knew/Somewhere Over The Rainbow
Live performances were like that back in the day: Boyz II Men, Whitney Houston, Luther Vandross, Celine Dion, Michael Jackson among others were great performers and vocalists. When record labels were looking for insane talents to sign and promote rather than "good looking" sex-sells type of artist for mass appeal.
Can You plz react to visión of love live at madison square garden , its one of the most iconic performances ... And its during the peak of her prime You will be even moré shook than Now, promise, her high belts were at its best

T Lo Brown YES
She was blessed to grow up in a house with black music, so the fact that she’s an artist is a blessing👊🏿Her mom should have sang BG like Cissy did💕💕
Her singing live is pretty epic, but generally speaking, live performances of early 90s were better in general. The instruments were real, less eye catching gimmicks and real performances.
💯, I'm so grateful to have been there when all that music was happening! ❤️❤️❤️

Listen to the vanishing rehearsal video! And please, dont pause it during the climax cause you might miss out on phenomenal things

Yeah she came out swinging. I like that you appreciate & understand the talent she has. Bro, you gotta hear MC's "All I Ever Wanted" 🔥
That song is my favorite as well, it seems that only 3 people have reacted to it so far 😭

Whitney Houston Celine Dion Mariah Carey. Are the best vocalist of all time.
de n barbra streisand, aretha franklin, lisa fischer, beyoncé etc.
@@butterflyszn2342 in 90s
butterflyszn definitely not Beyoncé. She screams a lot. The other ones yess.
Only Mariah. Because she is the most complete vocalist to ever walk the planet
This is my request, finally you’ve seen this legendary performance. She’s young but sings like a pro already. Thank you so much 😭❤️
Many live performances in the 80s and 90s were amazing. Examples are ofc Mariah, Whitney, Celine , George Michael
I've seen all these mariah videos 5+ times tbh, just watching your reactions as an excuse to see mariah sing again lol.
The reason Mariah Carey became such a phenomenon is Bc she could give a performance like this everytime. For years! It’s amazing the music she gave us for so many years.
This was like 90/91 artist back then had really good live performances because you had to have quality
She know she killed it😂 and that's on period💅🏼
Man, I'm loving your reactions. I mean, the way you manage the details. So good!
This night SHE also performed a song called Can't Let Go. She killed it as well! Go take a look!
Love and peace from Brazil!
*search for Can't Let Go at SNL
Can't Let Go was a year later, when she was promoting Emotions, her second album.
@@jolennon8629 you're completely right. I kinda messed up the appearances. Thank you!
@@luisalmeida53 but yeah, the performance is fire
love the little changes she did, with higher notes and such
He should watch the Can't Let Go performance at Arsenio Hall! That performance is better than the SNL one!
@@ThatsSoKatie44 I don't really like the Arsenio performance that much. She seemed a little tired, but the whistle in the end is really angelic, the best by far.
If it’s over grammys her best performance pls
Mariah set a whole new standard for live performing. Definitely check out "Without You (official version)". Another fantastic live performance
Young Mariah was a VOCALIST! She could hit all the notes perfectly live. That was her claim to fame. A lot has changed since then but we all remember those good old Mariah days. ✨
react to Mariah Carey “ It’s Like That “

Ariana’s Sweetener & that’s on what? 🙈✨💅🏽
F A M love the vid and the live performance with the grand entrance where she wears that red dress
Señor Loco right! He needs to react to the VH1 Save the Music performance. 😭🙌
React Mariah Carey Madison Square Garden in 1995
Make it happen.❤️❤️❤️
This is really emotional for me seeing someone so young enjoying the music of 1990 . - its quite validating and is refreshing this generation seeing WHY she has a legacy rather than focussing on the persona she/the media has created since this performance over the last 30 years.

Are you just discovering this music for the first time? I'm so jealous. Especially Mariah Carey
React to "Make it Happen" by Mariah Carey at Madison Square Garden!

Another great female vocalist from the 70's: Minnie Riperton. Her first big hit: "Loving You" My favorites were several tracks from an earlier album: "Come to my Garden". Her daughter is the comic: Mya Rudolph
Her performance of Vision of Love in Grammy, 1991 was the best.

You need to get on to her R&B/Hip-Hop joints like "its like that", and songs on her new album Caution like 8th grade, caution and giving me life 🙌
An early live performance of her on good morning america in 1990 was 🔥
I've never seen this live performance. You could tell she was really singing unlike other singers who "performed" on SNL.
No one compares to Mariah
Her debut performance was on Arsenio hall show . This was the debut era . I’m glad you enjoying Mariah her vocals are out of this world . Could you react to Another great r&b singer Tamia stranger in my house . Mariah Carey, Whitney HOUSTON , Celine Dion are know as the vocal trinity they are the best to do it in the last 32 years.
