still curious WTF mariah was thinking while making this song lol. she should be arrested for destroying everybodys vocal chords who attempted to sing this song in the original key.

eb5 Is her breakfast E5 is here lunch F#5 is her dinner Whistle : Her Chips.

Not to mention, if you want to replicate the studio version exactly, she riffs down to C3 at the beginning. The song’s whole range is an insane C3-G5-E7, so lowering or raising the key won’t help you survive it😭 Great video!

It’s the fact that she wrote this and produced her own vocals when she was only 20 years that does it for me

The difference between Mariah and her imitators is that when she first began singing the song those belts were RESONANT and supported. Too many of these new girls just show up yelling and think they're the next Mariah because they put all the effort into pitchy whistles and nothing into dynamics, stamina, vocal transitions, agility, etc. No one else has ever come close and even the next closest is not in the same league when it comes to technique.

*Mariah kills her voice by extreme vocals for 30 years *the public..mArIAh cAn’t sINg aNyMoRe 🥴 *Mariah.... oooh daaaahhhlingg pleeeeaaassssee🙄

She riffed and belted out every word on the song. She’s insane

for many years I thought that "Emotions" was Mariah's hardest song, but you ever heard "Heavenly"? Man, that song is a rollercoaster of runs and whistles and belts and everything else it's crazy

*The* Vocal Suicide Song! A virtuosic and extraordinary vocalist; truly one of the best 👑

No one would be able to re create this 😩 Even Mariah lost her voice while recording this, not to mention she took Emotions off her setlist for nearly 10 years. She still handles this song really well live and it’s amazing how she recorded this vocal suicide song whilst having nodules 👏🏽🙌🏽

And some people dare to question her technique when she has been singing this song for 30 years. 🥴🥴 Amazing video ❤️❤️

I dunno but this song is extra af but not when it's Mariah who is singing this. Listening to most singers covering this makes me cringe as they make this extra af song even more extra, they would just scream and scream I dunno how to describe, it just sounds off when not sang by Mariah

She proved herself over and over again through the years so for me it doesn’t matter if she can’t sing like that anymore. Voices get worn out over time, just like it happened with the amazing Whitney Houston and all the others. The important is what they gave us in their prime and that will last on records and videos forever

This song requires 4 octave range for you to handle it. She's a legend for no reason ✌️

The fact she sings this song while having nodules is insane. When I had my tonsils, I was so raspy and could barely speak. The amount of skills and control she possesses to sing with nodules must be immense.

It's not JUST that she hit those high notes.... it's also her depth and strength in EVERY REGISTER. NO OTHER artist has this. She is a vocal anomaly. I almost get offended at other comparisons to MC's voice.

5:32 is definitely my favorite performance of emotions. The whistles and belts are so CLEAR

..and Mariah is just literally smiling as she is hitting those high notes, those effortless Eb5s.

I’m trying to find the ability to get the whistler register without sounding like a broken pipe

She make these notes sounds so easy and effortles at the same time, the resonance is unmatched😫

The fact that everytime Mariah sang this song. She looks so effortless. She's just dancing, walking and smiling throughout the song.

SHE IS THE QUEEN OF VOCALS FOR ME

5:23 I LOOVE that trill that she adds to the first note!

To me what makes mariah different from any singer is her tone..its so buttery..i love that..

Mariah had a high tessitura and she definitely used her soprano to the fullest. She could carry chest high up to f5s creating fat, powerful, resonant belts, no twang. If only the other high voiced girls had the technique or developed chest voice...

Even if you strip the song of everything, Mariah’s tone is still glorious.

She did 4,9 octaves in only one Performance of that song in Worcester, what a Queen, there aren't many people who can call five octaves of their range in only one song and sound so nice...

Studio version goes down to C3 like 5-6 times. Everytime the "deeper than I've ever dreamed of" comes.

Damn @5:10 its like shes just laughing high up there! Also the thing i noticed with her is she really does take time to pronounce the words while phrasing, especially on the "higher than the heavens above" part. It doesnt sound slurred, i can understand every word. Amazing gift she has.

I love Mariah but as a vocal instructor who has studied the voice for 25 years, I don’t think it’s reasonable for someone without nodules and the ability to “sing around” them as she has- to attempt singing her songs as is. Mariah herself has said in interviews that the nodules not only aid in her whistle register, but also her lower register as well. Let me repeat: I love Mariah, but what you’re hearing is voice damage and an incredibly creative and talented artist who used their damage as their strength. If you don’t have that ability you are so likely to be injured and I don’t want to see any singer go through that. You can find your own strength in your own voice and improving your own stamina and range that’s achievable by YOUR body and voice. I care about people’s voices as an instructor, and I hope singers will study with a good voice teacher before attempting this kind of singing. Estill voice method is the most therapeutic modality and recommended by vocal pathologists. Also young people need to be cautious trying to whistle- usually it’s safer to attempt after puberty. Focus on head voice first. You can always add whistle later.

Those G#7-Bb7 adlibs were ethereal’

Queen riah, her effortless face expression made it easy to look.

The title of this song shouldn't be "emotion", the accurate one is depression song cause god dang those ranges!

Queen Mariah slaying all of those D5s, Eb5s, E5s, and F#5s!!!!

MARIAH ONCE SAID THAT SHE INTENTIONALLY MADE THIS VERY HIGH SO THAT THE MEDIA WOULD TAKE HER SERIOUSLY AS A SINGER AND NOT JUST A ONE-ALBUM WONDER.

At her peak her range was Insane, but it took its toll on her voice over the years and many of her higher register and whistle notes are now usually pre recorded and lipped ☹️

One of my fav songs ever! The melody and lyrics and the executions are perfect

The original key.. UNTOUCHABLE

Most of her song are hard to sing, but Whenever you call requires a Power that not everybody has.

Emotion, outside, fantasy are super hard!

Your channel is so entertaining!

It doesn't look like she is belting F5's and G5's. Which is amazing.

2:57 I’m here as I should 😌💅 On a side note Mariah said almost all the vocals in the song were from the first recording attempt, she got pretty caried away and started playing around with her voice amd this was the result👀

When people talk about the most difficult songs to sing, Emotions by Mariah Carey always comes out as the answer to the discussion. I just saw the vocal range ranking of singers and found that most of the singers at the top of the list were trying to sing Emotions to prove their vocal prowess. Disregarding all the allegations of autotune, lazy diction, etc., I must say Ariana definitely made a good modern version suited to the pop standards of the modern generation. Live I would say Morisette did a decent job.

In every Mariah video (literally every Mariah video), comment after comment is discussing how she "can't do it anymore" followed by responses of "well of course her voice changed over multiple decades so blah blah blah." It's such a tired conversation that doesn't need to happen. Mariah DID this. Mariah WROTE this song. She put it together and arranged the lyrics. She SANG it. This isn't pitch-edited because that wasn't a thing. Mariah RECORDED this song and she SANG it live time after time in ways that sounded amazing and were all unreplicable. Nothing else matters.

Definitely in my top 5 songs to sing, tho it’s prolly the hardest one I can do, half the time some of my whistles sound off but it’s still so so so fun to sing

Ur channel is DOPE! Love ur videos!

02:31 slay !!! 🔥🔥🔥🥰😲🇨🇱

Because this song wasn’t made for others to sing. It was written and produced by Mariah Carey for Mariah Carey. Even without the whistle, the melisma and riffs are vocal suicide.

O god I never realized that was a Eb5!!! I thought it was a C5 or something

A man, yes a man, has tackled this song and did it justice and more! Look up Gabriel Henrique. He has done many Mariah Carey covers as well as Whitney Houston! It's incredibly insane how good he is. He needs recognition due to the fact that he speaks Portuguese and is still singing American classics and nailing them.

Exactly, thank you finally someone with some knowledge on how she truly losted her voice instead of just saying she can't sing no more, no boo she scarified her voice to give us classics thats why I respect/love Mariah so much

Lead The Way and My All are two very different songs but are way more difficult to sing than Emotions which sounds so absurd since Emotions is already so hard to sing. But the breath control my all asks for and the accuracy that lead the way demands is just on another level

I shouldn't have sang this song during my high school years. At the age of 15, I always imitate Mariah's whistle even though idk about techniques and such. Now I'm 20, whenever I sing, my voice always cracks when I reach a certain note. That happens when you're feeling DIVA. Hahahaha!

love mariah no one can compare to her will always love ❤ her

Amazing Video!!!! ❤️❤️

My whistles get quite uncomfortable at around A6, so my usual highest is a C7, and here is Mariah being able to sing as high, if not higher than the piano

2:05 2:10 agility kween

I love singing emotions but when I do sing it (alone in my room) usually about half the whistles r hit or miss, I’ve never done all of them at one but I’ve done them all on diff occasions, it’s so fun to sing tho, and I love it sm!!! The whistles r so fun when u hit them right lollll

Oh, I so miss this joyfull, absolutely flawless, CONFIDENT, HAPPY, Mariah. I don't see this joy coming from her now when performing, & her body even goes tense. I know she has trouble, like we all do, and hope she can heal herself; that gift is absolutely still there

Mariah Carey has so many if not all her songs are so hard to sing...

I would think her hardest song would most probably be Bliss🌈 the whole song is 👌 in whistle register perhaps you could do a vid on that!

Mariah = Tone Quality + Skills + Musicality + Soul

Thank you for putting Respect on Mariah’s name. 👑🎙🎶

Why is ms. Amon in the beginning of this video? And ms. Grande in the thumbnail?

The only one I know who successfully did this song without struggling is Ariana Grande she really killed it like without hesitation I think thts why Mariah did a collab with her Mariah sung in whistle register with Ariana

The Intro Part of Emotions is my fave!!!

She always said she wanted to sing her songs the hardest she could so no one else could sing them. Saw that interview a long time ago. She can barley sing them but that’s my girl no matter how she sounds and she always sounds great to me!❤️❤️

This is a vocal suicide song! One of the hardest songs right next to Love On Top.

This might be very unpopular (and people will probably lynch me for this) BUT... I've never found this song to be extremely demanding if it's not for the whistle parts, at least not more demanding that a lot of Mariah Carey's songs (if we are going to replicate the studio version without changing it). I'm not going to disprove anything that is explained in this video at all, what I'm going to say is that this song doesn't require anything more than a great stamina, a consistent technique, a decent agility and a sort of range, all things that are always necessary when it comes to replicate at least the half of her discography: "If It's Over", "Anytime You Need a Friend", "Outside", "Can't Take That Away", "Yours", "My Saving Grace", "Subtle Invitation", "Circles", "Fly Like a Bird" and "Heavenly" are for example just some of her songs that display a lot of range and especially demand a very solid technique to be well executed and most of them don't even have a whistle part (and these are the ones that comes to my mind at the moment but we all know that there are so many other songs that can be mentioned). Don't get me wrong, this song is truly demanding but the killer part of this song are the whistles because it's probably the song that incorporates them more than any of her songs and if they would be replaced with another register it wouldn't give the same artistic impact and the same musical vibe that Mariah gave to this song. Let's be honest... Take it as an opinion if you don't agree with me but I think this is the true. Great job as always by the way! ;)

As someone who practices this song (Imperfectly) as an exercise for register changes, runs, and whistle notes, on the second line, on the downward rift on the wore "of", if you extend the run and drop into focal fry on the last one to three notes, it sounds really good.

Starting the song with belting chorus, half of the first verse already has belts, the pre-chorus is also belting, the second verse opened with belting, ending the bridge with belting, the alternative outro is belting. So Mariah decided to write a song heavy on the belting and we're not talking about the whistles yet, this song is mostly belting and runs/riffs, extreme highs and lows.

Morisette amon la canta super!!!👏👏

And Mariah singing this like nothing in her prime

MC has a million things that make her unique. To me, one of them is the way she was having fun with the notes (low, high, chest to head voice, jumping between 2 or 3 otacves) with a pretty smile on her face like it's nothing my dear until you try and see how bad you can hurt yourself and may never be recovered.

One of my fav songs to sing, tho the whistles r tough, lol but so fun to do when they come out right ahha

How come you had to delete the other "Emotions Analysis Vedio"? Well, anyways, I really enjoyed this one (as I enjoyed the other video)! 😉👍

ahmm i could suggest morisette amon singing live in a big arena in Korea with this song...

The Queen!

It's funny that most people who sings this song, really puts effort on making their whistles sound good, but not caring about how they sound wheb belting or singing the lower parts. Like Mariah literally does them all, and has been singing this song for more than half of her career, so nobody has the right to judge her because she already has proven her skills.

There's a lot of range in the octove.

0:03 Beauty Queen🖤🖤🖤

I’m exhausted watching that omg she’s one ☝️ of a kind

She is a beast!

You need to watch Morissette 2017 Asia music festival 2 song performance. She sang Emotions live and will blow you away.

And while mariah singing it very effortless xD

She is a freak of nature! ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

the high notes are super high, the low notes are very low, incredible vocal agility required to execute the riffs and runs time to time throughout the song, and sudden whistle notes, even long notes or riffs and runs with whistle notes. even with the range and skills, the song also needs insane energy to complete before short of breath or a sore throat.

To me singing or even mastering this song isn't about how you could hit all the high and low notes, it's about keeping your larynx relaxed when switching lots of hell different notes and doing all the runs precisely and make sure the speed still pretty much accurate. 1 to 10 the difficulty level is 1000000!!

Not for MOTISSETTE AMON She slayed that.song' EMOTIONS' jumping and dancing while singing in 2017 ASIA SONG FESTIVAL and with high whistle note at the start of that song! SHE's PHILIPPINES fast rising PHOENIX! wanna see pls! react to MORISSETTE renditions of 'EMOTIONS' Thank you!

Love the thumb nail 👍🏼

this song is famous for its high notes but the starting riff goes LOW as well!!!! lowering the key doesnt even help 😭😭😭 definitely one of the hardest songs ever!!

YES!! Nobody can ever cover it correctly

I can even sing this song in the original tone, with all the whistles, after warming up my voice. But I don't guarantee that after that I will have more voice, but ok ... lol

I have exactly your voice, I love her voice, I hope to be able to record soon,i love you Mariah and( I love your videos

Ugggh. Love it!

omggg I saw Morissette hahaha

Morissette Amin nailed this song during the Asia's Song Festival!

Mariah ! Damn ! ❤️🥰

mariah has the best singing voice in the 🌎 amazing
