I was lucky enough to be apart of this music video. I am the Asian girl in the beginning. It is so beautiful and heartwarming to see how much this song has made an impact on people to this day. Mariah deserves all the credit in the world for her music. This song will FOREVER HOLD a special place in my heart.

As a teacher, I think that I should petition for this song to become the anti -bullying anthem worldwide.

2024....I'm here

RIP Hydeia Broadbent the little girl in this video who was the youngest HIV activist 🙏♥️🙌xx

This song was released during a time when no one dared to talk about depression, racism, and other mental health issues. Mariah helped us through her song. This song was so special back then and still is today.

She saved millions of lives with this song alone

The fact that the media literally tried to destroy her only a couple years after this.....and then she came back and blew everyone away 👏👏👏👏👏👏

The reason why Mariah’s songs are so good is because she wrote it herself. You can feel and hear her emotions because of it.

I felt bad for those who grew up not listening to Mariah

People don't know how powerful this song is.

This song kept me alive, from all the abuse I was experiencing at a young age.

Mariah Carey, with her vocal prowess and deeply meaningful songs, is truly a Diva. This song still resonates.

17 people didn't have the light in them that shines bright-LY-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

I wish my son Anthony could have listened to this song , it might have changed his mind ….R.I.P. Anthony Thomas 02/29/1996 - 06/18/2018 Gone but not forgotten I Love You !!! Love Always Mom ♥♥♥

When people try to bring down show them how strong you are. Smile, Let them know you still here and you still standing.❤

Her music saved my life more than once. Her music is my therapy.

This song helped me a lot. Thank You Mariah for this song :)

*"When I wrote this song, I was- I had my days in junior high, in high school, in mind and I also had my own struggle, that I'm still going through, now, okay? It's about if you have peace within yourself, nobody can touch you, no matter what happens."* 📓🎙️🦋 *Mariah Carey* performing this song at her old high school in Huntington, Long Island on 30 October 1999. _(from 'Mariah Carey Homecoming Special')_ 🏫💭

Why this song didn't popular when it was released? This is a MASTERPIECE.

One of her most powerful ballads and that’s saying something.

this song is literally about her ABUSIVE MARRIAGE can yall childish ass tiktokers leave this amazing woman ALONE??

I love how she always mentions the Lord in a lot of her music.

Wow, when you realise that Mariah has always loved the Lord ❤

For a long time I’ve heard that Mariah songs helped people through rough times, I guess I never took that seriously until it happened next to me, my sister is going through a tough time in her life, she’s feeling depressed and anxious, she started at this new job months ago and she’s having a hard time there, feeling inexperienced, left out and bullied, she’s having anxiety attacks and she cries a lot. One day she was really down and I started singing this song in a humorous way, playing with her, it was the weirdest thing, she teared up, the words matched EXACTLY with what she was going through and what she needed to hear, almost as if Mariah knew. I know that’s impossible and it might sound silly, but I think that shows Mariah’s talent as a songwriter and her ability to connect with people.

Once in a lifetime artist. The one and only Mariah Carey.

I can't forget the first time I heard this song.. it was 1999, I was lying on bed, sick and thinking about my life, live in a crappy place, new in the city and kinda not fitting in at my workplace.. I saw a cassette tape on the table and played it.. I can still remember that after hearing this song, I cried and told myself I can get over and fight with all the challenges in my life... And it happened.. It got me through any hardships.. It is a gospel song for me as well as Mariah's other gospel songs that helped me through the years... That is why whatever people say about Mariah, they can never take away her soul in music.. deep, soulful, really a God's instrument...

To this day I live by this song…and oh how GOD has shown up, your dreams are valid 💫✨

This is the deepest and most meaningful song I've ever heard in my life. It makes me cry every time. Mariah will always be the best. No one comes close to her.

Last year i was diagnosed as HIV positive, I was about to gave up, n I finally found n heard this song, and it saved my life, Thanks Mariah

Listening in 2020 and this song even sounds better.

I played this song when i was suffering from severe depression growing up. It helped my through the times .I am now 50

I struggled with Bipolar disorder my whole life without knowing and this song came in the right time. Thank you ♥

Wait people seriously believe that this was stolen? No bby Mariah writes her own songs and she wrote this in 1999 thats 2 decades ago please think first. Plus the lady said 500 million views not 5 million. This is a really special song to Mariah, and the writing style is very Mariah why would yall even think she would steal this?

One of the most underrated single of all time. Sadly, the song was never officially released as a single, but this is the gem of the album.

I love her discography, but these types of songs have a special place in my heart.

Her music like a medicine treatment for my depression...

Dear Tiktok people please listen: you are not old enough to criticize or give an opinion on what you eat every day so, instead of coming here to accuse Mariah of being a thief, you should know this song alone is older than all of you. This song was written by her and Diane Warren in 1999 . Educate yourselves ok?

y’all know how much this song means to her? And to even accuse her of stealing this is beyond me-

Anyone listen 2024 ?❤

R.I.P Hydeia, you will be forever part of this song!🥹

Came here after her NYE performance. Those lyrics are so relevant today. People and the media try to bring her down,they say her career is over... Her performance was a mess but don't count Mariah out. She made a comeback in 2005. She can do it again

I wish more and more teens will discover mariah's music, it's like discovering a pot of gold!

We always compliment Mariah on her high notes, as we should, but can i get some love for these low notes in this song. Her low notes are full of warmth and insane! Wow!

Hurts me to hear people is shaming her because of her vocals now which is still good but this women gives and gave 500% in her music 1000% being the writing of all songs and back ground vocals

"If you have peace within' yourself, nobody can't touch you, no matter what happen." Mariah Carey.

"Can't Take That Away" They can say Anything they want to say Try to bring me down But I will not allow Anyone to succeed Hanging clouds over me And they can try Hard to make me feel that I Don't matter at all But I refuse to falter In what I believe Or lose faith in my dreams' Cause there's There's a light in me That shines brightly They can try But they can't take that away from me From me No no no Oh they they can do Anything they want to you If you let them in But they won't ever win If you cling to your pride And just push them aside See I I have learned There's an inner peace I own Something in my soul That they can not possess So I won't be afraid And the darkness will fade 'Cause there's There's a light in me That shines brightly Yes they can try But they can't take that away from me No They can't take this Precious love I'll always have inside me Certainly the Lord will guide me where I need to go They can say Anything they want to say Try to break me down But I won't face the ground I will rise steadily Sailing out of their reach Oh Lord they do try Hard to make me feel that I Don't matter at all But I'll refuse to falter In what I believe Or lose faith in my dreams 'Cause there's a light in me That shines brightly Yes They can try but they can't take that away from me from me No no no

That’s the Mariah Carey look and voice we love

She so legendary she puts 1000% into her music she deserves the world

I used to think that people were lying when they say this song saved their life until it happened to my very own self. I was suicidal, thinking about people's perceptions towards myself. I faced a horrible depression but surprisingly, her songs, her voice, her lyrics, cured almost everything if not all. Thank God for her. 😌

As a gay lamb, this song is one of the best gifts Mariah has ever given me

I remember when this song came out . She was getting beat up by her critics. She answer back with this song . I can relate to the lyrics they can’t take that away from me .

My parents always discouraged me and They told me that I can’t sing.and I will never be a singer.I Finally convinced them to Take me to a professional singing teacher and She told me:that I have a really Nice timbre and she would be more than pleased to work with me.After years of being told that I can’t sing and that I suck I was Finally told that I can do it.I knew it inside my heart that I can’t be wrong.Remember :No one know What’s inside of you except of you.Nobody will never Take away from you What’s yours.There’s a burning passion in your heart There for a reason.Lord never gives you a dream and a passion if He knows that you are not capabile of doing it.You just need ambition,discipline and faith in you.Work hard and never ever give up!

Can't believe this song is 20 years old! I remember buying the album on my lunch break in high school, then I had a math test that I couldn't focus on cause I was shit at it but mainly cause I couldn't wait for the end of the school day to go home and listen to the album. I'll always remember skipping Heartbreaket to listen to Can't Take That Away straight away. That was the first new album by Mariah that I ever bought as a fan. So glad that she's still around making music!

No one compares

Surviving through this song in 2024! Where you guys at?

Mariah writes her own songs unlike other singers. The tiktoker already said it was not Mariah and not a female artist stop accusing the greatest singer-songwriter of stealing, she’s not jlo.

Haters can't take away the fact that Mariah Carey is the best singer ever existed in this world. Timeless and forever in our hearts. ❤

I think this does not get the credit deserves. It’s superior to Hero

"Lord will guide me where I need to go" 😢 God loves us

Update: It’s 2022 and this song is still impacting lives!!

This song heals a negative feelings and depression 💖

This is not only Mariahs Theme song , this is my theme also . Love you forever mimi thanks for making music that makes me cry , laugh .. youre a icon .

I wish miley Cyrus who said that everything Mariah embodies is ‘all about her’ and ‘self indulgent’ would watch this. Those are true tears. I believe her struggles personally, but also her understanding of society and of mental health. This was just before her bipolar diagnosis too. Truly an amazing woman

i am one of the bullying victims this songs makes me feel new strength.. yeah can't take my life away from me... i will fight until the fucking last drop of my blood.. i will never give up until the end i will find the reason to live.

Not only the vocals, but the body language in the video, wow

Let's See How Many People Listening To This Beautiful And Inspirational And Powerful And Impressive Mariah Carey Song In March 28th 2024.

This is the first time I cried while watching a music video. This song really gets me. I really love Mariah and i wish I was born during 1990 when her career started. I am now 18 and I am never ashamed to listen to her old but gold songs. I don't give a fuck about them. Mariah is ❤

I feel for these poor kids 😔. Why are people always so harsh all the time??

Music videos were so simple yet powerful back then. No twerking here whippersnappers! 🙅🏻

For the people coming from TikTok: No, Mariah didn’t steal the song, Can’t Take That Away was released in 1999, written by Mariah Carey and Diane Warren The TikToker said she wrote the song a few years ago, so this cannot be it The TikToker was simply covering this song because it’s a song of empowerment She even recently clarified it vm.tiktok.com/ZMJrJch1x/ Now go enjoy the song

Born in 1992. Turning 30 this year and this song is so fitting for this time in my life! Love you Mariah. She helped me as a little girl and still helps me as a woman now!

This song always reminds me to pursue my dreams no matter what happens I always believe to my self and within my Faith to God will always find answer in every problems to be solve

Why there are unlikes? Such an inspirational song. This was our graduation song then.

I think this song is the most underrated in views and ratings, I know the LAMB knows this song. The fact, this is one of her most difficult song to sing.

This helps with the struggles in life and depression I face right now. This lifts my spirits

The inspirational anthem of our generation!

Didn't I order you? Be strong and brave! Do not be terrified or discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you walk ". Joshua 1:9

This is criminally underrated.

Rihanna on Mariah: "Anh her voice is an instrument, ahn it's unreal" ICONIC

Mariah you saved so many lives! We love you!

God works in mysterious ways. I have dimmed down because I blind others. I am giving up. Always pushed back in the mud.

marilyn monroe, elvis presley, beatles and mariah carey, they marked the history of humanity forever ... there is nothing greater ...

Surely Mariah sings this to herself after the 2017 NYE. Because no one can take her light away!

This song alone has helped millions of people, we can't thank enough Mariah for this ❤

2024??whos here!??all time fav...❤❤

This why artists like Mariah Carey made the late 90s early 00s such a great time for music because she added variety to her music and she was REAL, she showed skin in her videos but it was tastefully done unlike now. She had the fun hip hop and r&B vibe music for the clubs and the parties but also had powerful ballads with meaning and deep message to them. Now its all hip hop and twerk crap with fake women with fake ass, that have no added value to society but promoting stupidity and vulgarity to society.

no, Mariah did not “steal” this song , she wrote it with Diane Warren in 1999

Like Mariah's voice, they can't take that from her. God gave her a gift. She chose to use it to bring us joy.

being a victim of cyber bullying and found this song which really help me to get thru on this kind of situation. Thanks Mariah.

THIS SONG IS FROM 1999 AND IT MEANS SO MUCH TO HER BUT YALL STUPID TIK TOK PPL ACCUSE HER FOR STEALING

HER low notes are just so 😱😱😱 then as well as her runs,key changes and her power belts are just unique and hard to reach for those singers who wants to make a version of this song 😍😍😍 #QUEEN MC...
