It's not the hardest for her. There are harder songs.

Butterfly? Forever?

During the Mariah Carey, Emotions, Music Box eras.. she sang her songs live and made it sound more difficult on every tour. In her Daydream era, her voice started to become mature.. she had more control over her vocal agility.

@@vg6761 if Butterfly and My All were recorded on one of the earlier album, it could've been as difficult as other songs like If It's Over, I Don't Wanna Cry.. and she would probably sing it live with so much growl... 'Forever' is hard for her to sing as it is.. she recorded it so smoothly and it's hard to replicate the smoothness and exhausting riffs and runs at the end part of the song..

This song (like FOREVER) is a bitch and was made possible only for her. Only she can use what He gives her (BREATH CONTROL) how she does. Her GOD rocks and is holding this song’s piano player tightly💔💔🤎🤎

I would add that up to 1998 it was a stylistic choice, onwards it was a necessity in order for this song to be performed decently

I'm thinking of mariah Make it happen live 8 'finally found mah WaYayeh-eh-eh-eh-eh-yeah-yuhyuhyuh 🥴🤣

@@ryanallen8455 broooooo 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

was it stylistic or was it an adaption to her changing voice? with her nodules, it takes less effort to sing staccato, especially due to her nodules, she doesn’t have a lot of vocal stamina, which only decreased with age.

Also she grew with age you sing like this you. have to train your voice it doesn’t happen overnight also a lot of other things can add to it. Look at Celine ruin prime example stunning range and great voice now she’s resting herself her body if you don’t take care of your gift or talent you can loose let’s face it 00s she was finally free from things but she never recovered herself.my family is my aunts where singers but not string singers and as they aged their voices to need training it’s all about taking care of yourself even Christina Aguilera has the range she’s 40 she’s got talent her voice never struggles and it shows she takes care of it and herself

nodules were never a blessing they were always a problem… even whistle register can be achieved without nodules… nodules only give you unintentional rasp, but Mariah could do it on purpose, she never needed nodules

I'll never ever understand in my life how she doesn't have a vocal coach like the singing athlete she should be. Even in the recent documentary in the part where she talks about her voice she just says: "My mum was an opera singer, very disciplined, doing all of these exercises from bottom to top...and I just rest and use humidifiers" 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 Thats like going to the gym to do proper workouts VS having walks from time to time, voice is made of muscles after all.

No, don’t be sorry! That’s what I’m looking for, people expressing their opinions and I thank you for watching ❤️

@@TheQueenOfLambily I listened to Mariah from her 1st album in 1990 vision of love. In 1997 on butterfly because I had listened to her voice continuously almost daily for 7 years I heard very microscopic changes to her voice particularly on the song butterfly. It was like hairline fractures. I also noticed every album after that the deterioration seemed to be a little bit more profound until it evolved to where we have arrived today with the demonstrations that you have in this video. I really did listen to her incessantly so that's why I was able to detect such small vocal changes as early as 1997.

I think that was on purpose, since showing how vocals changed over a course of a few years instead of 1-2 shows more of a difference

Wheew I didn't notice this was 13 minutes long I watched everything!

idk what the problem with her voice is because her voice starts to crack if she tries do use vibrato or do runs

@@cynixie8862 because she doesn’t have good breath support so she uses her throat to sustain notes, where it’s really hard to use vibrato from.

@@Solo-vh9fm can't she get her support back?

@@cynixie8862 of course she can. but she’s never been a technical singer, contrary to popular knowledge, it’s just the way she naturally sang produced this lovely resonant, sometimes buttery, sometimes gritty sound but from a health pov, it’s not a healthy way to sing and she didn’t always place her sound right and that can blow your voice out. The problem is she still tries to sing this way up to now so her condition gets poorer and she has less stamina to push air out properly. If she got a vocal coach to teach her to sing with her vocal health in mind and with a bit more diaphragm action she probably could get that support back. I think the only era she’s ever tried to sing more technical is Charmbracelet but as you will notice there’s not a lot vibrato or running in her vocals which is a sign that her approach in that era was not developed.

@One Mariah can say what she wants, but just like her age, technique is another thing she's not the most truthful. Nodules affected the timbre and range of the sound, it does not give you asthma. She shouldn't be having difficulty singing the first verse of A No No or the chorus of Shake It Off (and before you point out the songs being too far, she had sung the latter before when it first came out). She clearly has had poor phrasing for a long time (discomfort sustaining notes, chopping lines containing mid to low-mid belts up, getting out of breath at speaking range) and I can give you countless examples at least post-2004. Another symptom of bad breath support is how she had to switch a nasal style in 2018 when she clearly has a much darker voice as shown in 2017 (which if we're being honest her sustained notes were shouty) and prior. If you want to blame nodules, fine, but then ask yourself why has the situation with nodules changed, because nodules don't just naturally flare up and down, they're a vocal injury. Also, resonance is heavily overused term, let's use the word open. If Mariah's learned to sing like that through vocal training (spoilers she wasn't and she even said her mother discouraged her from singing in certain ways) Plenty of singers have naturally open voices, Barbra Streisand being the most famous of examples.

thank you!

I think the general fluidity of runs ect went down as she got into her mid 20s but ye especially make it happen

Yeah, I’m thinking of doing this with VOL, Make It Happen and maybe Dreamlover

@@TheQueenOfLambily Those would be great to see! Especially VOL and MIH

That is one thing she never really had amongst her many gifts, she was poor dynamically

You can't get forte or fortissimo airy voice tho....thats mean controlled airy voice ≠ good dynamics control

Yeah i can do this type of video with Make it Happen, Vision Of Love depends if you guys like this one a lot

@@TheQueenOfLambily YEAHHHH WE LOVE ITTT, Please do it 🙏🙏

That's from tokyo night1 tho we have like 65% of emotions audio

@@musicboxerathankyoufor100s2 It is from Tokyo but the audio is in chinese, I hope that's what you meant lol

Beacuse your undubbed vocals are 😬.....

Yesss! I want to see Vision of Love with this video context too, it's annoying when she chops phrases in Vision of Love.

@@imthatchickyoulike98 Right? It doesn't work with songs like VOL that she herself has signed off with incredible connected runs and riffs. I was thinking how her concerts would have sounded if most of her number one songs were in the format of VOL.

I looked on google that her first performance of The tour was on 31st of December 2009, but yeah I guess you’re right

@@TheQueenOfLambily I’m sorry if I’m rude and I love you but if you know that concert you know that after Auld Lang Syne it was 2010 and Mariah performed Emotions almost as the last song❤️🤓

@@thelambilychannel8812 ooooh that makes sense, well 2009 is close to 2010 so at least there’s that 😂

@@TheQueenOfLambily yeah you’re right

yes

Is a decline and a personality change too. I mean, she can find ways to move her voice even tho it actually resists to the agility in form of rasp. Examples: her quarantine performances, where she actually sings in a more legato style instead of doing staccato, but her voice shows resistance to the agility, and that’s mostly bc her voice is thicker now. IMO, she should find ways to move her voice with slower runs, and changing the arrangement of her songs to slower ones, the whole 2010’s decade is a proof of her voice sounding better in slow arrangements.

Yes but sometimes singers use their whole body to support a difficult note, and engage all of their muscles in order to get the right sound

You’re right! Just as in 1995-1996 there were some moments where merry Christmas era tone was present , so does 1997-1998 have Daydream influences sometimes

It's emotions

@@Dz-gw9dy no, the usual intros like the one where it says queen of lambily

Hi, it’s called “Underneath The Stars”

@@TheQueenOfLambily THANK YOU SO MUCHHHHH AAAAAAA

@@ghafar4383 yesss ❤️❤️

How could she if her voice wasn’t in the best shape to do so?

Beyonce does not sound the same luv

That was her girly tone

It was through high larynx
