Correction: Aretha, the anointed one, is still untouchable. The greatest voice of all time. There will never be another queen but lots of princesses have followed. And yes, Mariah and her beautiful octaves, is one of the greatest princesses of all time.
@@mariawarren8575 I don't know who that lady is and I'm not interested, we don't know her in my country, Mariah is THE GOAT. The standard. So get out of the Mariah videos.
One of her songs"Hero"all my friends thought i could commit suicide at anytime, because a lot was happening to me, One of them confessed "that i have a heart of stone, because it seems to him i don't feel pain"I do feel but Mariah Carey saved me.
Trina Dee mariah said on the recording of this song for the background vocals it was only her with melonie daniels and the price sisters but walter afanasief make it sounded like a full on choir
Trina Dee kelly price did a lot of her vocals she has the platinum recording in her house and grammy to prove it too awesone!!you should watch her video of MTV CRIBS she shows it
The climax of this song is insane! Your fave could never. Projected, powerful mid belts, supported, resonant, and powerful upper belts (9 supported, resonant, powerful G5's) and then that piercing and powerful whistle note in the middle of belting, her whistle note was soo powerful that it almost sounded like a belt! And she did all this in 1 climax!!!!!!!!! And she WROTE this song herself too! WOW!
@@DeLucaSou It's a compliment. I think they meant that Mariah has a unique and creative way of thinking/outlook in life that she used in writing her music.
The best song in Mariah Carey's career. She puts forth her whole soul into the song. Great choir! Mariah and Whitney we're the best singers in the 90s. True talent from God.
I wasn't a choir. It was Mariah, Melony Daniels, and the price sisters. Mariah duplicated and stacked their vocals to make it sound like a choir... sheer talent
@Pedro We have our own beliefs. If you don't believe in God, It's your belief. But let me say, you'll regret you that in the Day of Judgement. Just saying.
@Pedro, if I'm an idiot because of my belief in Christ, so I think it's a good thing to be an IDIOT IN CHRIST... You dont believe until you experiment His power... Oh yes, He is almighty!
I literally skipped over this song. Today at work, God told me to listen to this song and when I heard it, I bust out into tears. He was talking to me through this song. Thank you, Jesus, for being my friend and being there for me when I doubted myself.
Me too. We all have our struggles, and everyone's struggle is different . This is a song of hope and knowing, there is ( even when it seems NO one is here for us) someone always is. Even if it's a stranger that made a comment of hope, love.,,, AND I know God is on our side! I love you all, with all of my heart., live your best lives! 👌👍💜
If you think this is incredible , and it really is, it's a masterpiece, then you have to listen to "Jesus what a wonderful child" and "Anytime you Need a friend Club remix" these are the best vocal performances ever recorded in the studio, they can puts everyone to shame. If you've never heard them, you will be SHOCKED. And no neither Whitney nor Celine can replicate this climax and song in general, where do you live on the moon? when have they ever phrased 10 G5s with this support and resonance? On Mars? Not to mention the airy powerful whistle

Except for Whitney, Celine and Lara Fabian. Mariah is a great vocalist but she's not the only one who can sing on this spectacular level though she has an unique style for sure

3:34 "Don't you eever be lonelyyy!" wheww, you can't touch Mariah in her vocal prime, you just can't, she just reaches into your soul and keeps a piece of it forever.
Exactly. I'd easily call this woman the best female singer/songwriter of all time. She is comparable to the Beatles( not in music genre of course) but In talent and popularity.
These people talking just to talk. Useless haters. We all know Mariah MF'in Carey and her unparalleled catalog, influence, voice, stats/numbers and overall artistry. Haters are MAD that their favs could literally NEVER...like EVER. A league of their own. And this easy ass streaming era and payola era. You get many forgettable hits and inauthentic numbers.
I'm so glad I was a teen in the 90's. We had real singers with powerful vocal ranges and atmospheric music videos. The early 90's was a fun time to be alive in. God ,what happened to music!?? How did we come from this to Cardi B and Lil Nas? Imo the 90's was the last great decade.
I've been saying this for the longest. Yes last great decade. The sitcom's were 🔥 too. The best . Now we have Rhianna, Chris Brown, Beyonce, Cardio B ughh
Vocally Maria's performance is inhuman. One of the most vocally challenging songs. She performs in such an absolute unparalleled way. Even after 30 years, we have not heard a cover that scratches Mariah's performance. The words have nothing to say, tear the soul.
am I the only person who thinks this is one of her best songs ever and should have been huge? The vocals, the piano riff running through the verses, bridge and chorus pulling the song together and making it super catchy, the lyrics.. This should have been #1. I think it was better than Touch My Body tbh.
My God, those belts! that's actual resonance, support, real talent ! And that whistle just sounded like a guitar, her vocal talent and control is just out of this world !!!
Vocally If you think this is incredible , and it really is, it's a masterpiece, then you have to listen to "Jesus what a wonderful child" and "Anytime you Need a friend Club remix" these are the best vocal performances ever recorded in the studio, they can puts everyone to shame.

I always like to recognize Whitney Houston, Mariah Carrey, Toni Braxton, Celine Dion, Christina Aquilera, Beyonce Knowles, and Jennifer Hudson. I Love all of them! The magnificent 7.
@@easye5653 Toni Braxton, Christina Aguilera, Beyoncé and Jennifer do not reach the level of Mariah or Whitney. I would remove those names and put that of the great Céline.
@@santiadame6781 yes, did you watch the divas live? Celine dion outsing mariah carey, mariah good if she is alone but to compete she is not the best, imagine she sing live with christina aguilera now, 🤣🤣 you wouldnt hear her voice
She wrote this beautiful, empowering song, AND sung it executing impeccable vocal technique and color... This woman IS everything and deserves so much more respect than she gets.
No better song to uplift one's mood. That choir in the background makes emotions. This song keeps going and going....Ohh my..i just can't have enough of it!!
Everytime this song plays I remember my mother, she is the same age as auntie Mariah. Im alone and she is so faraway but with the part that says " don't you ever feel lonely" she is there
Madonna's "Like a Prayer", Gloria Estefan's "Coming Out of the Dark", Rick Astley's "Cry for Help" and this song wouldn't be the same without the amazing Gospel choruses.
***** In my opinion, Mariah is Mariah thanks to her powerful pop ballads. She began destroying her career when she began singing Rr&B, Hip hop and songs featuring rappers. Now ther'es nothing left but the memoroes of her iconic ballads. The other songs are simply forgetable tunes that have not stood the test of time and no one cares about.
My favorite song from her. She has so many great songs, but this one touches my heart. The strength of selfless love is the most powerful emotion..........
Many years ago I remember sitting at my desk writing a letter to God asking Him to send a friend into my life. About 10 minutes later I got up and went to the Office Tuck Shop which was up in the Lobby of our office building and this song came on as soon as I walked in the door. Immediately I knew it was God answering my letter❤, He is sweet & so loving❤ & so comforting❤
+Guss Aguilar Believe it or not, her song she redone "I'll be there" helped me survive some hard times in a far away land doing things nobody should ever experience. I just thank God for her songs and most beautiful voice. This song also made things easier for me to make it home alive. Thank you Mariah, thank you from the very depths of a heart heavy with memories and thoughts, without you it would be forever down in a dark place never to see the light of day again.
Imagine having such an incredible voice, writing, composition and production skills, and such timeless beauty... Ladies and gentlemen, the one and only Mariah Carey.
I used to sing and cry my eyes out to this song when my sister was in the hospital. Even after my sis passed and till this day I still cry when I hear it. I miss her 💔
Condolences to u n family... stay strong n motivated girl...life goes on...hope u will be able to find the courage to accept what is fated in this life...
So sorry for your lost...I understand completely, I lost my sister also and I spent many nights in the hospital with her. This song gets me every time.
This song has touched my soul way before i could understand English. Growing up in a village (Africa) listening to the song playing in a national radio station. Indeed, music is a universal language.
THIS THIS THIS!!! The agility, control, support and DIVA CONFIDENCE of this son is extraordinary! IT's a song slept on by so many, but it really is one of the greatest vocals ever done by a female in contemporary music history
Pop Land this song convinced me she’s arguably the greatest vocalist of all time. Freddy Mercury, Whitney Houston, George Michael.... hard to put them in any kind of order but these are my favorites.
She has had criticism for warbling too much and I can understand that in some of her later tracks. But this sung to perfection, I love her earlier stuff.
One of the most powerful and underestimated songs of Mariah Carey.
so powerful Alaska had an dogequake
totally agree!
No, it wasn't underestimated. It was a huge hit. After "without you" this was the next huge hit from "music box" somewhere in May or June of 1994.
This song was larger than life and still great
@@arsenjaho8854 it actually was her first single to not be in top 10. So it wasn't a huge hit
she’s singing from God’s perspective which makes the lyrics even more profound.
So true and God just gave me this song. It really ministers 🎵

Mariah Is the best of all time
This is one of her most underrated songs. It's one of her best ballads. The lyrics, the message, THE VOCALS, the belts, the choir, the Synergy
So many of her earlier songs are underrated.
The most underrated of all Mariah Carey songs.
I love it
This song goes in on many levels ... its a total package
I love to hear. M Carey sing
THE BEST SONG REPRESENTS JESUS YESHUA!! JESUS IS THAT FRIEND!!

Just call His Holly Name, He'll be there!!

Im a music producer but no one in the music industry has ever even got close to mariah's 8 octane music vocals. It's out of this world
Mariah is more like 5 octaves which was comparable to Minnie Ripperton. Rachelle Ferrell had a 6 octave range.
Mike patton from faith no more has a higher range
Except for Whitney, Celine and Lara Fabian. Mariah is a great vocalist but she's not the only one who can sing on this spectacular level though she has an unique style for sure
I wish she hadn’t drastically changed her sound. Most of the rnb hip hop stuff she has done sucks.
where u get 8 from
This song isn't mentioned enough in the Mariah discography convo. She ATE this
Yep, this and other songs on the music box albun
She wrote it as well.
I dont feel her soul in this, her Thanksgiving performance was outstanding soul burst version that i really like
And then shat it out on us!

Nivre Aled Asor because she’s named THE VOICE ...?
@@achosenvessel6563 or celine Dion
She wrote the song herself. I don't like people who think that she is only important on Christmas. She wrote 19 No1 hits.
Well said.
What?!? She’s a legend! Not just at Christmas.
18**
Exactly. I'd easily call this woman the best female singer/songwriter of all time. She is comparable to the Beatles( not in music genre of course) but In talent and popularity.
These people talking just to talk. Useless haters.
We all know Mariah MF'in Carey and her unparalleled catalog, influence, voice, stats/numbers and overall artistry. Haters are MAD that their favs could literally NEVER...like EVER. A league of their own.
And this easy ass streaming era and payola era. You get many forgettable hits and inauthentic numbers.
She sang the heck out of this song ! My goodness !
OMG!
Like Mariah Carey can be the new Aretha Franklin or Teena Marie.
Xxx
I have never heard vocals like this yow this shit is sick go Maria need more song like these
@@danielsamuels5857 There's no comparison whatsoever...Mariah is Mariah...
Nobody should ask who’s still listening in 2024 coz we never left ❤
True😂❤

Mariah Carey had the midas touch. Everything she touched turned to gold.
yessss
Just like Chris Brown
+DeAndre' Flyboi what??? No
***** thank you...I was wondering the same thing
Damian Jo You cute
Can we give it up for the gospel choir which is backing Mariah??? A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E!
They are fantastic
only the best for the best
It must be a church Choir but from where
Simplemanplan the choir consists of the best singers from different choirs from New York
Price Sisters, Melonie Daniels & Mariah Carey stacked their voices to make it sound like a massive choir.
I'm 59, and I still get a little emotional when I hear this song. 🥹
❤❤
Mariah is proof that God exists. She's a healer through her music. God bless Mariah Carey ❤
True
🖤🙏🏼🖤🙏🏼
That is true.
Angel Mariah 💋 🌙 🦋
It was God who gave her this talent❤
Those G5's give me the chills every time. Really the last minute and half does , honestly.
I'm so glad I was a teen in the 90's. We had real singers with powerful vocal ranges and atmospheric music videos. The early 90's was a fun time to be alive in. God ,what happened to music!?? How did we come from this to Cardi B and Lil Nas? Imo the 90's was the last great decade.
So true !!!!!!
Absolutely 100%!
azamorph: Indeed...and we had TRUE diversity in the music industry...
I've been saying this for the longest. Yes last great decade. The sitcom's were 🔥 too. The best . Now we have Rhianna, Chris Brown, Beyonce, Cardio B ughh
so true!!!!!!
Vocally Maria's performance is inhuman. One of the most vocally challenging songs. She performs in such an absolute unparalleled way. Even after 30 years, we have not heard a cover that scratches Mariah's performance. The words have nothing to say, tear the soul.
That whistle at 3:39 :o.
Such a powerful performance with gorgeous backing vocals.
Back in the 90s, we had vocal Actrobats like Tevin Campbell and Mariah Carey on the airwaves!
Matthew Imp
am I the only person who thinks this is one of her best songs ever and should have been huge? The vocals, the piano riff running through the verses, bridge and chorus pulling the song together and making it super catchy, the lyrics.. This should have been #1. I think it was better than Touch My Body tbh.
Clearly better than Touch my Body.
i like touch my body better
Exactly! You’re 100% right!
Justice for Touch My Body!! hehehehe
Cause this is like a spiritual song.
And how about that choir, huh? It's just a gorgeous song.
Better than what we keep getting today.
God is Faithful
Yup-
Check out her performance on David Letterman, it's Magical, she kills!
💪🏻😆✌🏻🌈🌎
It's not a choir. It's just Mariah, melody daniels, and the price sisters. Mariah doubled and stacked their vocals to make it sound like a choir.
Why does this song make me cry?
Dude this is amazing. Her vocals are on point and the choir too!
Brandon Andre absolutely
I FEEL I CRY😥😥
Pose really said we got budget this season.... Janet, Toni, Aaliyah and this Mariah masterpiece all in one episode!!!
Oh yeah then they added Warren G Regulate omg I loved it!!!!
@@ccurtis5380 Brandy & En Vogue too, they weren't messing about. I'm excited to see what's in next few episodes
@@Willlll1m Yeah they Killin it in the last season, I hate to see em go but eager to see what's next!!!
Yo I almost cried when she drove off to that song
Bruh right? That show always wins with the soundtrack
This song is so fucking majestic
I know she makes you feel like she’s singing directly to you
Majestic is the right word
Mariah Carey is the greatest female singer of all time
My God, those belts! that's actual resonance, support, real talent ! And that whistle just sounded like a guitar, her vocal talent and control is just out of this world !!!
Love this
ur pfpf ios a heart ur
GOAT
Just breathtaking. In my opinion one of the best vocal performances of all time.
The BESTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Vocally If you think this is incredible , and it really is, it's a masterpiece, then you have to listen to "Jesus what a wonderful child" and "Anytime you Need a friend Club remix" these are the best vocal performances ever recorded in the studio, they can puts everyone to shame. If you've never heard them, you will be SHOCKED
And That's The Truth
A swear its like this song was written by God himself.❤
A message to the future generations..Don't let this masterpiece song die.🙏🙏❤️
De sentimentos, ela entende
This song is timeless.
Yep
We cant afford..
Please read Deuteronomy 28 you are the Hebrew Israelites.
The best female vocalist ever imo
I always like to recognize Whitney Houston, Mariah Carrey, Toni Braxton, Celine Dion, Christina Aquilera, Beyonce Knowles, and Jennifer Hudson. I Love all of them! The magnificent 7.
@@easye5653 same❤😊
@@easye5653 Toni Braxton, Christina Aguilera, Beyoncé and Jennifer do not reach the level of Mariah or Whitney. I would remove those names and put that of the great Céline.
♥️
Who is still crying to this in 2022? Thank you Mariah & you Gospal singers! 🙏🏼 A clear message from above.
2024❤
I always come to this song on those dark days when I need perspective.....❤
The choir really gives this song the uplift that it needs
@Ugh Yes they do. The choir is everything!!
Just mariah carey kelly price shanrae price and melonie daniels singing backup no choir.
Indeed
@@bronwynnkyledonson1266 Yeah, they stacked their voices so it sounds like more people.
@Oh It's a church choir. Probably them. Musically you can hear the difference between 3 voices and a mass choir.
There's no singer in the whole world better than Mariah Carey. She will always be a legend.
Whitney and christina
Nash Mangigin key word “better”
@@santiadame6781 yes, did you watch the divas live? Celine dion outsing mariah carey, mariah good if she is alone but to compete she is not the best, imagine she sing live with christina aguilera now, 🤣🤣 you wouldnt hear her voice
@@nashmangigin2039 LoL I hope for your sake that was just a poor attempt at comedy otherwise well, best of luck to you
@@nashmangigin2039 she sounds nasally
Who came here after Pose with tears streaming as Pray Tell walking into rehab..❤️❤️❤️❤️. #anytimeyouneedafriend
I did and cried after his break up and going to rehad.
Yes Pose brought me here💜💜💜💜
😢😭😢😭😢😭
So sad but the tears won’t flow
I'm watching the episode right now
Me!
She was so good - beautiful voice, beautiful face, a true music power of the nineties.
She wrote this beautiful, empowering song, AND sung it executing impeccable vocal technique and color... This woman IS everything and deserves so much more respect than she gets.
+Antwon Powell Amen to that!!!
Mariah Carey is just timeless, i will never get over her
fr
If I was a teen in the 90’s Mariah would of been my celebrity crush but sadly I was born in 1999
@@maxpalmer3212 ur lucky you was even born in the 90s, I was born in 2006.
I agree, I'll never get over her either, I love how she always stays consistent with her music.
Never ever
I like to think Mariah is taking about Jesus in this song.
She really singing about Him.She wrote and recorded great gospel songs.
+Abilio Campos yeah and also Can't Take that Away from Me, Fly like a Bird, and Make it Happen
+Mark anthony :)
+Mark anthony this proves that shes not in the illuminati
+The Conrad that was my first thought- it sounds like what He is saying to those of us who believe-
No better song to uplift one's mood. That choir in the background makes emotions. This song keeps going and going....Ohh my..i just can't have enough of it!!
Mariah + choir + backup singers are the vocal holy trinity
Best comment
There is no choir they just use a choir for the video but studio vocals are just mariah,melonie daniels,kelly price,shanrae price.
Bravo girl m🦾
Yep
Mariah + Gospel choir = LIFE !
it reminded me of the Like A Prayer video.
"Just remember to keep the faith and love will be there to light the way". This song turns 25 yrs. today! ❤❤❤ One of the best🤙🏼
Stephanie Derecho amen queen mariah
Amen.
Everytime this song plays I remember my mother, she is the same age as auntie Mariah. Im alone and she is so faraway but with the part that says " don't you ever feel lonely" she is there
I grew up hiding in her music from depression... her music kept me alive ❤️❤️ Thank God for being so many way of escape
Same here, I eventually took up a therapy and it helps a lot :) But Mariah's music will always be my close friend :))
Me too! :)
God given talent, straight from God
Me three!
me too ❤️
One of the best vocalists ever lived. thank you Mariah
+irma irmi One of the best vocalist with inspiration songs too!
One of . Don't Forget whitney Houston she is the best one. The top
Prince Igor Essodina Solim dude no. Whitney is one of the best singers in history, but Mariah was always the SUPERIOR vocalist.
King Crowley no the best
+Prince Igor Essodina Solim can you read? He clearly said "one of"
Madonna's "Like a Prayer", Gloria Estefan's "Coming Out of the Dark", Rick Astley's "Cry for Help" and this song wouldn't be the same without the amazing Gospel choruses.
juan rodriguez you forgot Foreigner "I want to know what love is
juan rodriguez so true for so many top pop songs... hmmm!
***** This is a pop gospel ballad. Mariah was a POP artist, not anymore sadly.
***** In my opinion, Mariah is Mariah thanks to her powerful pop ballads. She began destroying her career when she began singing Rr&B, Hip hop and songs featuring rappers. Now ther'es nothing left but the memoroes of her iconic ballads. The other songs are simply forgetable tunes that have not stood the test of time and no one cares about.
***** What does madonna have to do with this comments. Madonna's ballads are just nice accidents.
Mariah Beautiful Woman and Singer 👍🎶❤️🔥
My favorite song from her. She has so many great songs, but this one touches my heart. The strength of selfless love is the most powerful emotion..........
Divo 1966 same here
Me too...👍
Same for me. 😊
One of my all time favorites from Mariah. The Gospel soul feel takes this to the top.
the organ was beautiful
AUGUSTALLEN28 The actual writer got that chorus part from The Hawkins' "When All Else Fails" - th-cam.com/video/HeVg2WUm3aY/w-d-xo.html
3:10 when she starts with the adlibs for "it's all right! it's all right!" chills everytime
Who is listening in 2024? ❤
me my friend!!!

Me from ivory coast in africa i love maria carey 😍❤️😘
Thirty years in may !
1994 - 2024. 😮 🗓️
(Written and produced by CAREY & Walter AFANASIEFF). 🙂
Many years ago I remember sitting at my desk writing a letter to God asking Him to send a friend into my life. About 10 minutes later I got up and went to the Office Tuck Shop which was up in the Lobby of our office building and this song came on as soon as I walked in the door. Immediately I knew it was God answering my letter❤, He is sweet & so loving❤ & so comforting❤
Oh my goodness yes he is. I love him dearly 💛 💗
Amen 🙏🏼
Amen...HIS goodness is incomprehensible
I'm sure mariahs music has helped people get through hell and back. Listening to her gives hope and prosperity.
For that, thank you Mariah.
Guss Aguilar It's been the case for me, she gets me through life, love her so much.
What a smart comment!
+Guss Aguilar Believe it or not, her song she redone "I'll be there" helped me survive some hard times in a far away land doing things nobody should ever experience. I just thank God for her songs and most beautiful voice. This song also made things easier for me to make it home alive. Thank you Mariah, thank you from the very depths of a heart heavy with memories and thoughts, without you it would be forever down in a dark place never to see the light of day again.
She's defiantly helped me and I hope one day I'll be able to thank her
Agreed
Mariah Carey ruled the 90s
Am seeing your comment after 9 years 😂😂 a u still ok

Can't spell MUSIC without (M)ariah (C)arey
FACTS!
She is literally what holds the word together
Amethyst Maries can’t spell Christmas without her either
Imagine having such an incredible voice, writing, composition and production skills, and such timeless beauty... Ladies and gentlemen, the one and only Mariah Carey.
I used to sing and cry my eyes out to this song when my sister was in the hospital. Even after my sis passed and till this day I still cry when I hear it. I miss her 💔
Sorry 💔
Condolences to u n family... stay strong n motivated girl...life goes on...hope u will be able to find the courage to accept what is fated in this life...
Covid taken so many
So sorry for your lost...I understand completely, I lost my sister also and I spent many nights in the hospital with her. This song gets me every time.
Stay strong girl.....your sis would want you to
Just when you thought she already hit the high notes, she whistled. That beautiful airy whistle. 😍😍😍
the whistle sounds better in one of its remix versions. more powerful
This song has touched my soul way before i could understand English. Growing up in a village (Africa) listening to the song playing in a national radio station. Indeed, music is a universal language.
Which country from Africa do you came from??
😊😊😊
Her best song. Hands down.
What a song, what a vocal. Truly one of humanity's greatest. Takes you someplace else.
THIS THIS THIS!!! The agility, control, support and DIVA CONFIDENCE of this son is extraordinary!
IT's a song slept on by so many, but it really is one of the greatest vocals ever done by a female in contemporary music history
makes u wanna JUST EAT IT
A M E N
Pop Land big deal she cant fly like superman
Pop Land this song convinced me she’s arguably the greatest vocalist of all time. Freddy Mercury, Whitney Houston, George Michael.... hard to put them in any kind of order but these are my favorites.
She has had criticism for warbling too much and I can understand that in some of her later tracks.
But this sung to perfection, I love her earlier stuff.
