Tommy is a man with class and had a good of classic taste. He wants Mariah to stay classy, sexy, timeless classic beauty, ladylike back in the day. I really missed her 90s music era and how she used to sing so incredible amazing.
Its not just the fact that she looks beautiful and radiant here, and not because the arrangement and her voice is breathtaking, but she literally name checks the Edwin Hawkins singers, The Clark Sisters, Aretha Franklin, and Stevie Wonder SINCE THE BEGINNING. Its the consistency for me. Its talent recognizing talent for me.
So weird that this is three years before the xmas album and when she started having straight hair for everything. She manifested it all in this one performance.
I still think this is one of her most incredible performances. Her voice is the best it had ever been, she was in her prime, total control , gorgeous looks, this has soul, incredible tone color, etc. It was just flawless, peaceful, soulful and perfect. I wish there were more of these.
Although Mariah is so beautiful here (as always), she looks sad. Hearing what she said about her mother and growing up hits different after you've read her memoir.
you can tell she had to give certain answers due to the marketing around her image. she had to say in very general terms "I listen to the radio" coz she could never say she was listening to someone like Big Daddy Kane
She sings it much better here than she did three years later when her voice lost that heavy husky tone and became lighter and more girly. Will always miss the darkness and heaviness of her tone from the first three years of her career.
This is such a new one! Omg what a weird foreshadowing after so many people spoke about how no one ever did Christmas music as young artists. There’s probably so many unfilmed or lost performances we don’t know about.
Good interview. After reading “ The Meaning of Mariah Carey,” it’s interesting to read between the lines of Mariah’s answers. She seems to really be trying to be honest about her relationship with her mom without throwing her mom under the bus. And the music she carries with her: Stevie, Aretha, the Clark Sisters and a lot of gospel. She absorbed incredible musical influences.
@@charfree6888 Mariah has since revealed in her book, which I referenced in the first post, and in subsequent interviews that her relationship with her mother has been problematic.
I'm glad that I found that interview on TH-cam. Last year, I relived the interview on December 23rd 1991. I've found parts of it One in black & white & another in color. 31 years later & still the best. Like I said, the legs of hers IS my favorite body part in black stockings🦵🦵. She look gorgeous then, now, forever. Great facial structures, beautiful smile, & nice legs when she crossed it.🥰😍🤩❤❤❤❤❤
Just beautiful and cute. Adorable. Over-looked too is her talent as a song-writer. Amazing that such a singer/writer is combined in one person. Ashame though what life has done to her.
I wish she did a 30th anniversary version for Emotions like the new Music Box one so she can include this and other live performances/scrapped songs from this era on streaming :)
Love her hair, looks like she just finished filming the video for Can't Let Go. It was quite a radical change from the big curls she had before. Love the performance too - Obviously she wanted to do something Christmas related for a good while before she recorded the Merry Christmas album!
Strange, I've always thought she was much older during these times. It's hard to believe she was only 21 years old here. She and Whitney Houston dressed like they were in their 40s.
Oh my goodness.. I've never seen this before.. stunning vocals and such a beautiful rendition of this wonderful Christmas song.. mariah we love you ..❤😍❤😍❤😍xxx
Mariah is the best singer in the world because she has the best sing vocals in the world and one of the most beautiful woman in the world. We love you Mariah
I never knew where this performance was from until now. “A lot older” was still under 16💔💔Patricia ruined those kids and they’ve always been jealous of Mariah (just for being home with Patricia. They thought she was living it up and passing {for white})🤨🤨Reading her book put a lot of shit in prospective❤️❤️
She did *not* have a good relationship with her mom, and that must've been so difficult for her to field these questions in a not very honest but still respectful way not to garner the negative attention 💓
She had a complicated relationship with her mom. She never said it was bad even in the book and even so the worst events that occurred between them were after this interview. So she wasn’t being dishonest here.
Mariah was so amazingly beautiful when she was young. We're has the time gone so fast it's scary I miss the 90s I miss being young again. I was 11 in 1991 I hated leaving my 20s I wanted to be 25 forever I looked really good when I was 25 I miss being 25 wish I could be 25 every year getting old sucks.
I was too 11 in 1991. I am a huge fan of M C since my 13 (1993). I miss so much the 90's (comparing now😷...). I also start my age in 2005 (25). God bless you bro or sister 🛐
It's sad how she lied for years about her relationship with her mom. I always noticed it. I always knew she was being untruthful about her mom (I think a lot of lambs knew it, too).
There’s a weird bad quality thing that kinda sounds strangely good with her voice? Like it sounds more vibratory than usual. Not sure if I’m making sense

THIS IS NOT 1991 THIS IS 94. MARIAH NEVER TOURED UNTIL 93 MUSICBOX TOUR. THE INTERVIEWER ASKED WILL YOU BE GOING ON TOUR AGAIN @ 2:30 I could be wrong but it sounds too much like the album version for MERRY CHRISTMAS but I'm trying to figure out what TOUR she is talking about.
Yeah, I heard that too, but maybe the interviewer misspoke? Mariah corrected her by saying she wanted to tour _eventually_ , and talked about not wanting to just put something together to tour, which wouldn't make sense had she toured prior to her saying it.
This is December 1991, she was planned to do a tour for her next album released excluding MTV Unplugged, which is "Music Box" in 1993, and she did tour 2 years later
No, this has to be around 1991 or so. The Price Sisters and Melonie Daniels started singing background with her with Music Box (and they're not back there), if I remember correctly, and the legendary Billy T. Scott and Patrick McMillan ARE back there, so this has to be Emotions era.

If only TH-cam is created in the 90's, I'm sure most of Mariah Carey's songs have 100 billion views.
They tend to think they're more popular because of this fact. But she would rule had it been available
@Day 👍
Interviewer is a very gentle woman. I love this interview.
I thought this as well, I really enjoyed her questioning
Joan Lunden, she was great.
People used to speak softly before 2000, you'll notice it in every video before that year.
The fact that she is now the queen of Christmas now 😊
Probably during this time she already has Visions for a Christmas Album!!! Mariah Will Always be Above Any Artist in the Music Industry!!!
How can be possible to sound this mature and beautiful at 22?
Only legends can do it.

Strange, I've always thought she was much older during these times. It's hard to believe she was only 21 years old here. She and Whitney Houston dressed like they were in their 40s.
She was 22
The dress was very flattering actually. The pair of tights/stockings were unnecessary. But her label executive/ex-husband controlled how she dressed.
Ladies back then were more mentally matured
The mature look was the early 90s style.
Oh my goodness.. I've never seen this before.. stunning vocals and such a beautiful rendition of this wonderful Christmas song.. mariah we love you ..❤😍❤😍❤😍xxx
Mariah is the best singer in the world because she has the best sing vocals in the world and one of the most beautiful woman in the world. We love you Mariah

Beautiful.
I miss the girl she was .. yeah she was easy to kill. But i do like her in the 90's , her speaking voice n laugh , talking about her dog... So sweet.
In this song I can hear her sounding similar to Whitney, rip!
Oh my god now you mention it I see it!!
Yes, that's what most critics said in the early days of her career.
I def hear the Whitney, especially in the beginning. Its a wonderful thing
Maybe it's their common denominator...gospel influences.
