Lyrics:
You've got me feeling emotions
Deeper than I've ever dreamed of
You've got me feeling emotions
Higher than the heavens above
#MariahCarey #Emotions #Live #MTV #Unplugged
OK but that PIANIST was killin it!! Geezus that wrist strength, they're definitely a powerhouse!
The Pianist Is David Cole from C&C music factory. They made house/techno music. He died back in January 1995 from aids. He co-wrote and produced this song with his music partner Robert Civiles.
One sweet day was dedicated to him
@@balls_down_ya_throat456 Wow, that’s sad. Such a beautiful musician. He accented Mariah’s voice like no other!
He was very underrated. Plus he could sing. Check out C&C music factory ohhh baby that’s him singing lead. It’s a shame he died so young.
I always noticed that in the video I always liked how he played fitting with the emotion in the song!
the fact that she sang this while smiling and laughing all around at the same time made me kinda wonder if that girl still even a human.... lol
She was like this throughout this concert, pure joy and passion and rising above her stage fright, definitely not human lol
The notes themselves are effortless so she just plays around with it
@@Ciclopea2 other artists also have no stage fright 😂
@@adrian-lf2ei some artists don't, but Mariah does, and still has to overcome it to perform live, any fan of hers knows that.
Lip sync?
I love that people said she couldn’t actually sing live so she did this performance to prove she could. Wigs snatched
James Kardashian she absolutely could then but not as much now unfortunately :(
Wig?snatched
Edges?scraped
Hotel?Trivago
@Marlan Benning yes she can,but it’s hard for her to hit some high notes she could before.
Is there anybody who can sing like that in their's best days?
Who the heck said that?
It's f*cking ridiculous how good she was in her prime.. unbelievable
Yup
I really do not understand how a human can produce that sound.
She’s still at her prime, specifically at Christmas 🎄 lol
@@VenusManTrap-777definitely not. Still appreciate her anyways though
@@ProCloud-k9rGabriel Henrique he’s insane
People who desperately try to sing this song always fail to realize that this song is not about Mariah showing she can sing so high, she already did that on her first album. This is song is about Mariah showing the world what she can do with her immense range scaling up and down her vocal register with such agility and precision over and over. She will descend from the lowest of the lows and then in an instant soar thru stratospheric heights. Her voice is absolutely out of this world. The Greatest vocalist to have ever walked this planet.
Amen 🙏🏻 I agree 💯 percent!!! It's good to know that someone can see what I see..... A large vocal range with excellent control. Mariah is one of the best singers ever. Long live the Queen!!! 👑
Agree... Mariah and Whitney are both the greatest singers ever
Word💯
I have the whistle and i can do her whistle, but the Highnotes? She is effortless.
Plus she has a beautiful tone, something most people forget about when analysing voices. You can have all the technique in the world but if your voice is not pleasant to listen to, I don't really care
*In 1992, Mariah decide to release this MTV Unplugged Live EP for prove to everybody her voice was real and 100% talented*
My english is not good, sorry.
Your English is perfect!!
@@daniellakaran5760 thanks😌
Rhonetta Johnson can u tell me whats wrong lol
how could it not be real? auto tune did not exist yet, all voices were real (don’t count milli vanilli)
Imani Alexander lol dude we know dubbed takes a lot of takes so whats your point? Didnt u like it geez
imagine being born with that much talent and knowing it
Actually, she said that she almost gave up on her dreams because of other people's criticism to her. But her father said she should do it because she can sang.
@@daydream10.18 wow amazing!
Imagine being born with that much vocal talent and then being one of the most successful song writers of all time! Unprecedented
Ok i love mariah for real no doubt extremely talented singer but being a co writer or credited for a song is different than fully writing your song
Mate its not all genetics... its not fucking bodybuilding here lmao..
maybe the vocal talent is genetic but songwriting ability is learnt
I think she’s probably the only artist ever who had to purposefully book a live gig like this to prove that the vocals were real. People just could not believe she sounded that good.
A lot people would but they can’t, and there are so many good after effects these days that they can fake it live too.
And she opened with this song just to warm up her vocal chords...What the Fuck!!!
@MichaelLopez HANDS DOWN 100% of everything you’ve said!! 🎶💃❤️
Yes
And she came out the gate SANGIN!!!! She said “hold my purse….AHEM!”
When Mariah came back with her second studio album Emotions, the critics felt it lacked the feeling and meaning that her debut album had. On top of that, because she limited herself to television and award show appearances, people and critics felt that she couldn’t sing as brilliant live and felt that her voice especially her whistle register was gimmick made to sell albums. So she and her label booked this MTV unplugged to show the word that she could actually sing and she showed tf out in deed.
Yess..She has proved if she wasn't a studio singer
IN DEEEEEED
Omg, I cant believe people said She couldnt sing well. She is one of the most beautiful voices from all the times.
@@TheJazz182 oh yea. Back in the day especially during the time Emotions was released, a lot of people became skeptical because she didn’t go on tour after her debut album.
Mariah was too pretty then and they thought she was faking it. Didn't think someone who looked like that could sing like that. They thought wrong.
She said in an interview: "I make my music hard so that I, only I, can sing it." Lol. I really love her attitude. Straight to it.
Edit: Thank you so much for the LIKES! LETS SUPPORT MARIAH! MUWAHHH!
When did she said that?
@@juliocesarfernandezcampuza8760 In a Interview. But, i'm not sure when.
I'm a Filipino and i love Mori. I respect both of them. I wish they would have a duet... SOOON.
The joke's on her then. I guess she couldn't have predicted just how much her voice would deteriorate over the years.
@@V_-._.-_ No, she didn't carea about the risk, AT ALL. She was just TRYING TO AMAZE US. She did all the risk for us.She didn't predicted it because she just want us to hear her best.
Even when you're not a fan, you've gotta admit, this woman is the embodyment of slayage
Nick Reichwein Yas! 👌
EMBAWDYYYMENT
Nick Reichwein my friend said she was trash and she sounds horrible, they said that she’s not even close to the best singer alive. They’re not my friends anymore I want to kill them. Mariah is arguably the best female singer ever and most successfull too. People these days don’t know what singing really is. Yes, I will give it to Whitney that she is the queen of vibrato,resonance, and power but except from that Mariah wins everything. Technically her vocals are untouchable and that’s why she’s the best still up to this day. (This is coming from a die hard Mariah Carrey Stan btw)
@@MsHalle-kg9ny
Mimi's belts, albeit short, are as resonant as Whitney. A testament to her almost perfect technique.
Naomi Osho Killing them is a little too much 💀💀 skss
I love Mariah Carey’s curl hair era. The best era ever!
Sounds racist.
@@RAW_GHC02 which part?
Growing up as a marginalized minority, Mariah faced unrelenting racism and oppression. Some would argue she still does, since critics claim she "only has a studio voice." Which is exactly why she did MTV unplugged. To have to prove them wrong. Critics didn't say that about Melissa Ethridge or Courtney Love.
Your comment about "curl hair era" is getting close to a typical demeaning comment about African American women's hair. It's a very sensitive topic, and rightly so.
@@RAW_GHC02 really? So commenting about curly hair is offensive now? Man, can't speak anything at all these days!
FYI, I have curly hair too so is it racist for me to have curly hair?
@@RAW_GHC02why so pressed? mariah is literally black haha lol.
You know. I’ve never seen any comments like “oh I was there that night”
Cause they all were dead after the performance Mariah Carey gave them
Lmfaoooooo
AHAHA
Shoot that took a hilarious/dark turn.
2:57 they all died
😂🙌🏽
Idk why people disrespect her, she WALKED so y'all could run
no she SPRINTED so everyone else could walk
What mariah walked? Thought she always fly and didnt know nobody lol
Adit Pratama fly like a bird dahling
@@alainamaas1906 say it louder
People run but no one will ever catch up to Mariah's prime
there is something so youthful and innocent about this Mariah. she is so free
Absolutely, she is sooooo free and having fun
Sanchita Chakrabarty that's how her image pre butterfly was put together
João Vitor exactly
Haha .maybe bc shes young and innocent from the corruption of the music industry, and or life, here 🤔😂. No, I tease but I feel ya
So true. Now she sings in corsets with high heels barely walking most of the time.
I will never find the best live version for this song other than this one! She just slays it like it's nothing...
Arsenio Hall show from 1991 is better
The sync?
the music box era ver is better
Hits that whistle register like it's nothing. Her Mom had her hitting notes as a child that only dogs and elephants hear
@@vincentwhitley1119 Mariah's notes also resonate with dolphins now.
The fact that there are people who don’t see Mariah as one of the greatest vocalists to grace this earth, clownery. She had a five octave range not to mention the best whistle register of all time, and could sing as low as the second octave. She’s one of the best because she didn’t just sing soaring high notes and didn’t only sing low notes, she could specialize in every facet of her voice, whether high or low, all starting at 20 years old being compared to the likes of Whitney and Celine. A true icon
Celine got in the game in US after Mariah tho.
Yeah, my thoughts exactly, Mariah was only compared to Whitney, as Celine despite starting her English album the same year as Mariah’s debut didnt really breakthrough until the Beauty and the Beast soundtrack in 1993. Celine started to be included in the Big 3 (before Celine, it was Whitney, Mariah, and Madonna) as far as I know is in 2002, when Randy Jackson included her with Whitney and Mariah as the Big 3 meaning top selling female SINGERS who have sold an upwards of 100 million records worldwide, for some reason Simon got the credit for the vocal trinity when in fact it was Randy that initially grouped all 3.
So many sopranos dream of reaching the second octave lol
check out Ima Sumaq she is also at the top with Mariah, with 3 octaves
@@paularamos2623 Yma Sumac got 6 octaves, not 3
You can feel the immense passion of this young Mariah. 😉😊
jocriss she was so pretty and when she moves her hands you can see she has passion !
SHOOK BITCH she was a young woman here like 18-19
@@angeljohnson6665 She was 22, still so young
Yes it is.
Mariah:first of all I’m still young
She sang this better than the recording. Gotta be top 5 voice of all time.
I can't think of 4 better
@@thomasdavis3359Whitney!
“Emotions” is dubbed ‘Vocal suicide’ by many music critics around the world, being Carey’s most vocally demanding and hardest song to sing out of her extensive catalogue. The track showcases 4.8 octaves out of her impressive 5.2 which already proves not many singers can pull this song off considering the huge range needed to sing it.
It’s become a standard for Carey to perform this throughout her tours and live appearances, critics believe it defined Carey as an artist as it really shows off the vocal power only she has been known to have. Many singers have attempted to cover Carey’s iconic classic but it’s universally agreed the song should only be sung by Mariah Carey.
Thanks to David Cole him and Mariah co-wrote the song him and his music partner Robert Civiles produced it he’s the one who pushed Mariah to sing that high on this song.
*sadly found out today: I have to mention ariana grande (who i was no fan of 5 minutes before )
@Stevin13 While Ariana Grande can sing the song very well, and better than most of her peers ever could, she still can’t sing the song as well or effectively as Carey did

I loved her hair back then. Wish she would go back to the curls.
Irene T it would never go back to that. Once you dye , straighten or anything else it’s gone forever.
@@jacksters19 what? whoever your hair stylist is they're lying to you sis
Brianna B hair changes as you age. It’s a low chance of getting the exact same curls as when you were younger or before chemically damaging the hair.
@@jacksters19 yes but it's not like her curls are gone?
Brianna B @brianna , most likely yes. If she were to go natural again the curl would be wavy
The way she hits the high notes that easily impressed meeeee amazingly
It's not her actual voice, vocal chords aren't vibrating, just producing a whistle.

Yes she was I don’t know why they keep comparing her to Ariana grande, I mean she’s a really good singer but not on Mariah’s level
That's what I noticed too. Good ol' days.

@@xorih1089 not really, it sounds good but forced, she doesnt know how to sing properly technically speaking...
Okay but the guy going ham on the piano. I’m equally impressed with his skill.
He was one c of c&c music factory
@@75marres and unluckily he passed away a couple of years later 😔
he was who one sweet day was written about.
May he RIP (Billy the background singer too)! This whole f'n performance was better than THERE WILL EVER BE! Mariah, Randy, Kelly, AND EVERYONE??? They shit on that stage!
TennileF1: He was David Cole (from Civillés & Cole music production team) that co-wrote and co-produced this song for Mariah. He (they) was responsible for C&C Music Factory's "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)", 1 of the most known songs of the 90's and controversial too, because the girl that appears on the video is lip synching the legendary powerhouse soul singer Martha Wash, who threw them a law suit for that...

Louka Deshaies 16 weeks on number one ❤️ rest in peace to the pianist :(
vanishing yes❤️❤️
It's hard to focus on anything else happening other than Mariah's singing. Well spotted. Too bad he's dead
Irene T it's the late David cole. Mariah was so lucky to had been surrounded with very talented music producers / songwriters such as David cole and Walter afanasieff in her prime.
Only Mariah Carey can make live performance sound better than the studio recording. This is what talent really is.
Celine and Whitney too
@@Rayquaza676 the vocal trinity 🛐
YESHSH SO TRUE!!!
Even Celine and Whitney
Ariana grande too
Correct it the vocal trinity.
Whitney Mariah and Celine Dion both make the live sound better than recording
The critics were so mad after this. Before this concert they kept calling her a studio singer, and that she couldn't sing live like she does on the album. They couldn't fathom that this beautiful young woman could be the one behind these songs and this voice. Then Mariah does Unplugged and sings these damn near impossible songs live even better than they sounded on the records. You just know they were stewing in that anger 🤣🤣 Then the petty bastards decided to block her from winning anymore Grammys for the rest of the decade. But she really won in the end cause the people bought and loved her music enough to make her one of the most successful artists in history. This show was straight up Queen shit 👸🏽 👏
She didn’t needed a Gram my to become an icon and a legend! The female with the most number ones of all time! Now take that Grammys!
Mariah "Songbird Supreme" Carey DOMINATED the 90s decade and only have 2 Grammy from then to show for it. They robbed her on several occasions. She "returned" in 2005 (went on to slay for the rest on the 2010s) and they still robbed her. The Scammys are too busy rewarding mediocre talents OR up a certain group of people's a$$. The Beyonces, Kanyes, Jayzs...it's like they must reward these people or there will be consequences 😒
Crazy thing is Mariah is still making magic. Her Caution album was A1! But she's still criminally underrated..more so now because of ageism and the landscape of music now. Never seen such a mega star still be so underappreciated/underrated in their career.
HAHAHAHAHA!!!! SHE LITERALLY A LEGEND!! TAKE THAN YOU JEALOUS WORKERS !!! 🤣🤣🤣

The way she effortlessly transitions between low notes and high notes is insane!! The range of this performance was C#3-D7 WOW more than 4 octaves in one performance!!!!!!!
The gospel intro sent shivers down my spine
It's a gospel styled soul intro. With Jazzy influences instrumental wise.

”Emotions”: could be labeled as her ’signature song’ for being perhaps her best known song among the general audience that showcases the use of whistle register.
Nope it's 'All i want for Christmas' but yes emotions is the best song that showcases her whistles
@jocriss yes it is Mariah did THAT
Bliss shows her whistle too
@@Everythingisromanticass bliss, all in your mind and angels the prelude exists

D Cole the best
what a control of her voice... My god...
first reply after 3 years
Second replay after 8 years lol
This song is literally one of the toughest in history and she sang it like it was nothing!!!
Well it's a song designed for her voice (her level of range + agility) so I'm not really surprised.
It's hers x)
mariah said she makes songs that she can sing so it makes sense 😭. probably why i never really see mariah carey covers as often.
Im guessing the reason why its tough cuz she did what shes not supposed to do because of her nodules?
Its 2 semitones lower so its not really tough anymore

I'm trying to do a whistle register like her during the qurantine
Let's admit that there's a lot of young, up and coming singers who can also do such high notes (whistle), but let us also accept the fact that NOTHING could ever top Mariah. She is often imitated, but never duplicated.
Before Mariah there was Minnie Riperton. They're both amazing but Minnie was something else!
She couldn't control OR switch from chest ---> Whistle nearly as well tho.
J-Hxrris-14 Who couldn't...Minnie?
Yes.

can't imagine what was it like
2:56 I love the transition from whistle to chest voice!
I find 1:10 and especially 2:02 more amazing, because those are instant transition.
This is a unique skill that only she could do flawlessly.
Amazing!
I was about to say it too lol
That was not a transition Lol
Correct me if i am wrong but i think there was a miniscule break so that she could descend. Not sure though and please dont hate me.
Crazy how innocent and natural she looks here.
Believe it or not, she still looks very natural. Have you seen what some of these other celebs do to their faces? Her lips, eyes, etc. have remained natural through the years. Only plastic I noticed were the implants. That's nothing compared to what the others get done. A lot of 20-somethings today get all kinds of lip fillers, Botox, etc. much less at Mariah's age.
Yes she looks so cute (not me being gay and falling for another women)
it's funny how you place the word innocent there lol, but I guess I know what you mean
Because this was before her ex husband Tonny tried to destroy her career :)
@Shawn Mendes Bussy I think what he/ she meant by innocent is from the look in her eyes, clearly if you look at her right now you'll know she's not the same as before, and that's ok it's part of getting through the years of hardships, you'll get your crazy time and then one day, they just learned how to live day by day with all those vultures around them.
This video is a trap. Every time I start playing, it takes me an hour to stop and get back to real life.
🤣 I'm on that track right this second. She's a legend. ❤️
How many times did I watch her sing Can't Let Go. I love this one and that one too! Wow

LOOKING UP TO TONY BENNET AS JAZZ IDOLS
The way the FINAL WHISTLE ECHOED through that room!!!! Yes many artist can do whistle register even higher than Mariah... But NO ONE can bring it like Mariah Carey!!! If you disagree you're just bias or misinformed.
sorry but i have to agree with u even tho i love the other artist who can do whistle.
Let’s be honest, the only people who disagree are the kids who are too young to have heard a lot of Mariah, and who think that Ariana is a black diva 🙄
@@vihaze6725 EXACTLY!!!
Like idk why ppl keep on comparing both!! They both have a great voice, but I'd rather choose Mariah. She has passion for what she does, she has worked hard to get what she has now!
And ppl still dont appreciate and respect her!!
@@carolinafernandes8685 FR Mariah is Mariah,ari is ari. id rather choose Ari though but Mariah is such a queen ugh
She can do melisma in whistle... A fucking melisma in whistle!!!!!!
In 1992 Mariah had to do an mtv unplugged because people thought she was a studio production. She really showed them all. How cool would it be if she did the same now and laugh at them all. Forever locking her legacy. Love her ❤
There already were comments that explained so this was useless
@@JiafeiProducts6969 yet here you are replying to my wonderful comment.
I ABSOLUTELY 100% AGREE WITH YOU 💃🎶❤️🙏VOICE IS AMAZING LIVE IN CONCERT ( SAW HER LIVE IN CONCERT WITH MY BABY BROTHER AND WE GOT HIM INTO HER AND MY FATHER WHO LOVED HIS VOICE AS WELL AS WE STILL DO! MY DAD LOVED ALL MUSIC AND TAUGHT US SO MUCH FROM HIS ERA ALL THE WAY UP ). God Rest your soul daddy.🙏🎶💃❤️MY DAUGHTERS LOVE HER AS WELL AS MY NIECES ARE AND NEPHEWS. WE AS THEY STILL LISTEN AND DANCE TO THIS SONG AS WELL AS MANY OTHER OF HER SONGS 💃🎶💃👍❤️
Do not understand How people can give dislikes to this video that probably is one of the best perfomances ever ... Nobody can achieve her voice, range, power, richness, techniques in one song when she seems she is going high she just goes higher
+Alejandro López Probably those jealous Ariana Grande fans.
Alejandro López
becoz they jealous
Alejandro López maybe,she's not better sang live than studio
Tracy Ramiscal you easily get jealous. lol
Akhue Amey hahah!!
ANGEL VOICE, NO ONE CAN DEFEAT HER, SHE SINGING IN EFORTLESS WAY, WHISTLE LEGEND
check out Ariana Grande's cover of Emotions...
+KDkitty101 no she sucks
+KDkitty101 you may think it that way but you DID realize that Ariana's was not Live right? Mariah did it live, so you cant do anything about it now. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT PEOPLE.
+69The lone wolfess69 i wasn't talking to you about the "get your facts straight" thing. I just meant to say it to all the people out there who thinks that Ariana's cover is better.
+69The lone wolfess69 i can't say "get your facts person" to all the people who thinks that Ariana's cover is better. Because the word "people" is the plural form of "person".
How many notes you want to hit?
Mariah: yes!
Didn’t just destroy the vocals but also a writer on the song! Everyone knows MC can sing but she rarely get enough acknowledgement for her incredible writing! Hit after hit!
I absolutely adore her. She should be in a Bible.
-Adele
Sandra Smith is this quote true?
TG T True, I watched it before
J MC good to know 😆
The Pop Bible
Mariah and Adele are both of biblical proportions... Truly ♡Matty Deeply ~♥~xoxo
Her range is mind boggling.
In case someone needs a drum transcription of this song please check it out on my channel
8 octaves apparently. The only person who can do that
3:28 that side glance before the slayage
Seductive stare to the right
That moment right there was when I fell in love❤
She shut all the haters down who said she was just a studio creation.
This is QUINTESSENTIAL Mariah. The hair. The outfit. The NOTES.
The bird voice she made at the end no ones talking about.... its amazinggg!!! 3:29

Technically, Mariah Carey of the past
I'm sure you'll be disappointed to see her on live stage these days.
@@liopfai7002 we-
I'm living for those people saying "higher" in the back.
The World Of Lyna kelly price and her sister
It’s crazy to think that Mariah felt compelled to do Unplugged because no one believed anyone could be so talented.
Verdade
The level of disrespect to the Queen Mariah ugh but turned out that was a good idea. At least we have something to slap in the people's faces who degrade Mariah
It's not crazy, people love to pull bright strong people down. You think thry grow out of it in high school, but no
that's insane! is there an article or link i can read about this?
@@blancasolar5548 wow so you know how mariah sang that time.. I believe you're a vocal coach to even say that.... Unbelievable!
She is smiling while singing. What an energy
That intro broke records and your fave could neva!
Jennifer hudson could for sure
Whitney Houston.. lol fail!!
Critics Thought That Her Whistle Register Was Fake And She Had Very Limited Vocal Capabilities, So Her Label Booked This Performance And She Shut Every Critic's Mouth.
3:27 Are y'all ready?

As far as pure vocal talent in the 90s, it’s Whitney and Mariah and there’s no use going any further. They’re just light years more talented than anyone else.
Celine Dion and probably Toni Braxton are in the next tier.
Whitney can do anything like this, she's great, the best of the rest but Mariahs in a league of her own
vocal legend
She is totally relaxed while singing. It costs absolutely nothing for her to do what she does in this song.
Yup because her voice was still young and naturally high to reach these whistles..but now she tends to raise her larynx to be youthful
Her vocal techniques were perfect and smooth back then, but she drained her voice with the overuse of it
She literally lost her voice recording this. She said herself.
'idk'....the last time she went 'emOTIuhuhns, yahh...' right before the rolling high note barrage sounded a little....masochistic
Girl what you on-? If that was true she could've been able to do this nowadays
I would always say Ariana is the next Mariah but Jesus no one can touch this woman at her peak. What a fucking flawless voice.
Greatest singer ever my god❤️😩
You must be 21 or younger and didn’t grow up on Mariah. We been knew lmao
@@VizWorld_SIA100 Ariana is Ariana, let her do her own legacy. Not based on comparations, is better like that.
Karla Alfaro lol I never said nothing bad about ariana💀 I love her as well💯
Glad u know! No one...could touch her...except whitney...that's it!
This is the best UNPLUGGED EVER.
This is the Mariah I fell in love with. And I think most others too. The hair, the innocence and that voice...oh lord, that voice. The 90s Mariah was on FIRE! No one and I mean no one comes even close to her in that decade. Not even Whitney, with all due respect, she is a distant 2nd, even though I loved her music and voice a lot. But Mariah was something special and unique. That range, that whistle register.....is like she is communicating with the dolphins. 90s Mariah was a force of nature like nothing else, man.
I respectfully disagree. Whitney was known as “The Voice” for a reason. I will always love you should be enough for you to know that if Whitney IS second. She’s a very close second.
FACTS!!! 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
She forgot that she is a human
200th like go to me.
IF IT'S OVER 1992 GRAMMY !!!

David Cole (CnC MUsic Factory) on the piano. May he RIP. Randy Jackson on bass guitar. The Price sisters on background vox.......and THE SONGBIRD SUPREME. TOO MUCH TALENT here on one stage!!!
Talking bout David Cole is he the person on the piano in Whitney Houston's video I am your baby 2night?
Wow Thomas Farmer, thanks for that info. I did not know much about the background artists on this video..
Melanie was in a Tyler Perry play😩😩😩😩I died when it dawned on me that that was her. Mariah always introduced her BG as “The Price Sisters (and Melanie)” Kelly Price 🎁🎁🎁
So true!
Amen! Bless everyone on that stage and in that audience...
92년도에 인터넷이 있어 뭐가 있어, 겨우 겨우 LD 얻어서 보면 그날이 최고의 날인데 이렇게 유투브로 너무 쉽게 보네
For a live performance, this is absolutely stunning. She was on her game during this session. Even more-so than the studio version, it seems.
There are better performance of this song, Arsenio hall 1991, MSG 1993, Rotterdam 1996 remastered and maybe others
@@DaniloStrever I don't like her Emotions performances in 96, her tone is too light and her whistles here are better. I love the intro and ending of the Unplugged.
The important thing is, Carey hit those high octave notes LIVE!! My flabber is still gasted.
@@DaniloStrever Also London and Worcester
3:15 those growls tho 🐯
And let's give the brotha on the piano his dues too! 👏👏👏
Loved his skills.
That’s David cole from C&C music factory. He’s dead. Mariah and David wrote this song together. David and Robert Civiles produced this song.
Smilin’
Only she could sing this song so perfectly. No one dare to touch her register ❤❤❤
Mariah was the best vocalist of her era, and MTV Unplugged was Mariah on her absolute prime.
No Whitney Houston was
@@manamiwashington9558 key phrase "of her era". The title of greatest vocalist of all time is still arguable between Mariah and Whitney but it is definitely Mariah who was the best vocalist of her era (90's) as was Whitney the best of hers (80's).
OF ANY ERA * And this is not her absolute prime are you kidding? Music box is the best era technically, vocally is daydream, I mean MSG 1995, Rotterdam 1996, unmatched
I just wanna say that Whitney was in Mariah's era and she sang "I Will Always Love You" in the 90's, sooooo... Yeah
@@bossking6796 And as much as emotional and spiritual I Will Always Love You was, it's far behind the level of difficulty of Emotions. That's why people on singing shows sing IWALY, not Emotions. I love both songs though.
Best live everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
kardeşim jssjjsssjsjsjjjsbs
Abi ya hahakaldldşx
If It's over Grammy 1992,. MSG 1995 REMASTERED, ROTTERDAM 1996
Omg this deserves more likes and recognition..legendary whistle!!
2:55 those high notes are clearly prerecorded, when she says "higher" in her low voice, the high notes haven't fully ended.
nil - lol It's all live. She often sang that way.
***** What do you mean with dubbed?
***** Ohh thanks, I´ll check it later.
nil - What? nooo. Mariah dont use playback / pre recorded vocal in before 1994. U could do your own research before u say anything. Like this one. maybe u can search on youtube the Undubbed version and see no different except sound quality. she had 2 take of this song. and pick the best of them i think. or the second take.
