CELINE DION, MARIAH CAREY & WHITNEY HOUSTON - Runs, Riffs, Inflections (REACTION)

JustTheVoice this video did not have Whitney in her pre prime and prime runs... if they were in there you’d change your mind for real for real young Whitney when she was singing in 1985 and 86 had so much more flexibility in voice then her prime you must find those videos. A good example is her 1985 opening performance for Luther band Ross she sang 2 songs greatest love of all and nobody loves me like you do. Also do the Nelson Mandela’s concert she has amazing runs in the gloa

It’s because of you that I am now put on to the vocal beast that is Celine Dion. I’ve always known of her, but I NEVER knew she was basically a sista in a white body with all that agility!! Seen many of your reactions to her and I’ve been shook every time! Her power and resonance is absolutely filthy!! WOW!!! Thank you for this! She, Jessie J, Michael Buble, and David Phelps are the kings and queens of resonance for me. So proud to call myself a musician.

[@Sttephy30]

Celine and Whitney are powerhouses. Mariah was a light-powerhouse (if that makes sense) but created a louder sound with her resonance.

[@farismazhar7748]

Stephon Jackson Mariah and Celine are both lyric type voice. Whitney is a spinto which means she can sound as powerful as a dramatic and soft as a lyric. But celine has more volume and clarity so she is more powerful than mariah. But all of them have incredible resonance

[@Sttephy30]

Mariah is not a lyric soprano like Celine Dion tho. She honestly sounds like a lyric coloratura with an extended range. Her lows crushes both Celine's and Whitney's.

Celine definitely surprised me when I initially watched this video. I never knew she was this agile, but I watch this video all the time just to hear how fast she really is.

[@VangelisPolydorou]

My favourite is Celine Dion, she has SO much precision in her runs, you can hear every single note and I just love her tone and clarity in her voice and her ability to sustain such long phrases effortlessly! I think Mariah has so much versatility throughout her range and really is superhuman when it comes to vocal range and transitioning between registers also I know it's nothing to do with the video but Mariah has written on every single one of her original songs. Whitney had such a well full rounded powerful voice, there are plenty of powerful singers but not with the richness that Whitney had. They're all amazing in their own way.

[@marckinnier6929]

[@imqsqs]

Why would you say something he already said?

[@mijalakis3]

Kinda agree but she is not the best when it comes to agility she is powerhouse star, long sustained belts and yes agile but the arpeggios both ascending and descending are definitely Mariah, her range is so connected that she can star as low as and F2 all the way to a B4 or A5 .and transition between a fuller more round sound into her head voice in the space of the syllable and also Mariah Carey has done thrills in the 6th and seventh octave and then makes a run in whistle register of 54 notes and both diction are impeccable. No hate on Celine or Whitney whatsoever. The three of them are very different t but a lot closer than you think.

Mariah's runs focuses more on the transitions between registers and she is mostly agile in her whistle and falsetto register and how she goes down after doing agile runs is just impressive as hell...

We can all agree that Celine Dion shocked us here. We know she's great but we don't get to see these live unbelievable vocal stylistics much. What's most amazing is that she still can kill it at age 50 now.

[@minmcgonagall9190]

I don't understand when people say that Celine Dion shocked them, ppl, she's been doing these things forever! I think ppl maybe haven't really followed her career... What I think is amazing is her ability to still do that at her age...saw her las summer in Europe, what an amazing experience that was!

[@youtuber-vb7qi]

sizzlersphinx Anyone who has closely followed Celine’s career are not at all surprised.. she’s been doing these things from the very beginning of her career.. people need to follow her French career as well to fully appreciate the agility and acrobatics that she’s always done.. she’s the best at it in my opinion.. she can scat and mimic instruments and do absolutely anything with her voice that the other ones can’t

[@sizzlersphinx]

I'm a fan of hers and have lots of her CDs. But I still get happily surprised when I watch vids of her that I havent seen. For instance, I'm still just discovering her Unison era live performances where she's doing those crazy riffs and runs. I'm seeing her concert in Manila on the 19th July, btw, so I'll finally get to witness her vocal majesty live!

[@lilymccann5329]

Didn't shock me. I been knew she was a beast and assumed it was well-known.

[@3b0o0dblacksecretes]

the best things in each one of them in my opinion. Celine Dion: 1- Crazy belting range. 2- Versatility (going through multiple notes very fast like it's nothing to her). 3- Small fast runs. 4- Resonance, power and breath control in holding the notes. Mariah Carey: 1- Whistle register. 2- Control (she controls her registers effortlessly to do some amazing transitions). 3- Powerful low notes. 4- Mid-speed long runs. Whitney Houston: 1- Perfect vibrato (very strong and stable vibrato). 2- Phenomenal support (even her tone doesn't change a bit when she sings very high... her throat stays super wide opened). 3- Angelic tone. 4- The most soulful singer ever.

[@GarageStudio7]

3b0o0dblacksecretes Spot on apart from Mariah's *"mid-speed"* long runs and Whitney's *"perfect"* vibrato. Mariah's riffs and runs are actually very fast but most people miss it, due to her use of Legato. Whitney's vibrato is definitely the most memorable of all singers to me but it's not "perfect" since she uses her jaw. I think she does this for dramatic effect but technically speaking, it's regarded as a flaw.

[@3b0o0dblacksecretes]

GarageStudio Well said... but as i said “in my opinion”... i know that Mariah riffs and runs are very fast... but what i think is really amazing is that when she does consistent runs for about 8-10 seconds in a mid-speed to make every note clearer and much enjoyable to listen to... as for Whitney... thank u for pointing that out... sorry I didn’t phrase what I meant in a good way.... it may be considered that her vibrato is not completely perfect due to the jaw movement... but I meant to say that it’s perfect to listen to regardless of taking it from a technical point of view... her vibrato is extremely powerful that sometimes it sounds like it’s adding more power to the belt itself.

[@3b0o0dblacksecretes]

Fioratura Showcase MariahCarey Ur missing the point... this is what i *love* about Mariah carey... i’m not hating or comparing or judging :)

[@graysang5386]

GarageStudio: Whitney DOESN'T use an excessive jaw vibrato, or anything else like Jhud or anyone does. Her vibrato is the most natural actually. The "movement" in her jaw is just an outcome of her belt's vibration, corresponding to Mariah moving her head or hand when executing a melisma. People mistakenly notice that, but if you would only clearly listen to her vibrato then you would know how natural, open, and stable it is.

Ugh the vocal trinity! The songbird supreme Mariah’s runs are so fast and is very agile. Her runs in whistle register are UNMATCHED. They sad she is able to run in chest and then transition to whistle register is just amazing. And she can do 55 note with in like 15 seconds in WHISTLE REGISTER. Ugh the way she goes up and down scales it’s like high notes one minute and BAM she’s hitting Eb3s. The voice ms Whitney Houston can RUN, ugh them runs in head voice are great and her vibrato is just wow 😮, not as agile but is amazing, she gives me church vibes. And ms queen of the power ballad really surprised me here she the 2nd fastest with her foreign scales and her runs using her upper belts, her runs at times can be overused like the one with Aretha but she is just amazing! Long live this amazing trinity!

[@oke00306]

Interm of this video about run and riffs. My order would be : 1. Mariah has the fastest and effortless run and that transition was out of this world (and i'm not gonna talk about her God gifted various register here.. lol). i love how she knows when and where to put her run in singing. 2. Celine, most acrobatic run, impresive, up and down. Backing forward. The most complex run. 3. Whitney, gospel run and scaling with her powerful voice. And that tone, just one of the kind. Out of that three divas, whitney is the one who mostly i can feel emotion in her runs.

[@federicoraggio252]

oke00306 You're absolutely right, but actually Mariah has the most complex runs!! That is a known fact, insane what she does. The famous Lead The Way run, for example, is something that nobody in thew world has ever been able to replicate... UNBELIEVABLE!!

[@ranbruce3109]

Federico Raggio Yes, I heard that, but I think Celine's Can't help falling in love live in 1993 is more complicated

[@federicoraggio252]

Ran Bruce No, it's not, cause it's the same melody executed gradually higher. Mariah's Lead The Way run has not even one pair of notes equal to another one, it's one of the most complex and hardest runs of all time

[@ranbruce3109]

Federico Raggio Of course Celine can do that too, you can watch her voice practising on Ellen show in 2005. Let's face it, I can sing the lead the way part without losing a single note, just in lower key, can you say that's most complicated? You can also try the Celine's part of Can't help falling in love and you can see you will give up in the middle.

[@bpforever5094]

Federico Raggio It's no competition becuase mariah can't sing that song live. You can't improve that mariah has the most complex run but her run and riffs are the most beautiful.

[@danielbenitez6985]

1. Celine’ riffs/runs for resonance, clarity, precision, agility, lung capacity, hence, ease of effort. Her R/Rs are so intriguing to listen to. What sets her apart is her blood-pumping, powerful, ringing tone that’s makes her notes literally sound like they’re bouncing off the walls in an echoey chamber and pierces the soul like lightning. On the other end of the spectrum, her angelic, smooth, flute sounding tone can make you feel as if you’re swimming with whales or entering the gates of heaven, sure to bring you to tears. If the universe had a voice, it would be Celine’s. 2. Mariah’s riffs/runs for the transitions to extreme lows and highs.. rich, silky, more vulnerable tone. What sets her apart is her ability to easily & expertly navigate through the whistle register which is why she always remains the high note queen of the world. 3. Whitney’ runs/riffs for easy transitions that incorporate her iconic, strong head voice, always executing with what can only be described as soul. She also scores high in agility which is what riffs/runs is all about, while her often raspy tone adds something special to the mix. I’d say her only setback is that she didn’t engage so much in riff/run techniques as the previous two, that would’ve given us more variety of R/R content as they did. What sets her apart is that she was first to hit the stage in this era of obscenely technical vocals and set a standard that brought out the best in the rest. That and of course her thunderous voice that still shakes the world.

[@romanarts6645]

We also need to take into account that Whitneys voice was much larger than the other 2, making runs physically much more challenging for her (because of her voice type) than Celine and Mariah. Yet she is still unbelievably agile. Its funny because in a comparison like this about runs, Celine and Mariah are undoubtedly technically superior to Wwhitney, however in belting, Whitney knocks them both out of the park technically (not shading any of them, just showing some perspective).

[@schnitzel1024]

GarageStudio I think Celine is by far the fastest and has the most musicality with her runs. Mariah is the prettiest and most agile through registers. Whitney is the best sound and accentuates the runs most. She is a singer and her runs are what a singer would do. She doesn't too often imitate instruments. She is THE VOICE.

[@Eddy6159]

Carl Briggs the most musicality with her runs? I’m sorry but that is indisputably Mariah’s territory.

[@schnitzel1024]

Eddy6159 I disagree. Mariah definitely has great musicality. But, Celine has runs that move with music in unexpected ways and for many people, unexplored ways. Mariah can definitely do runs that are brilliant, but Celine does runs that are fit for a musical genius. I can't say the same for Mariah. I'll say the she definitely uses her voice like an instrument but Celine uses it like an instrument being performed by a composer.

[@Eddy6159]

Carl Briggs Hmmm I don’t know about that. Mariah can compose songs and improvise lyrics on stage just by hearing the piano. She can also supplement hard runs with equally appealing runs that are easier for her current vocal condition. Her relationship with music among Celine and Whitney is second to none. Mariah’s ability to shift through registers at the flick of a switch is unprecedented. To go from mid belts to sliding into the whistle register in under a second is astonishing. If you’ve seen any of her band intros where she’s creating harmonies and full on melodies by will then you’ll know she’s a genius.

[@schnitzel1024]

Eddy6159 I say it's hard to decided between agility though. Her voice is incredibly agile moving between registers but Celine has more speed with her ability and her voice is so fluid to where she doesn't generally have breaks in her voice.

[@christopherdavis5593]

I also think Mariah’s performance are so familiar they are almost unimpressive to him and others. Her music remains wildly popular, regardless of what narrative the media devises. There’s also the issue of Mariah not being able to explore in her live performances because her work is so popular people want to hear the recorded version the most. There are recordings of her scatting in every register. They also failed to include her unique ability to demonstrate agility in lyric baritone notes, unlike any of the other two. She’s also demonstrated the ability to change the color of her tone in every register, including whistle which is uniquely her own gift in popular music. Exploring Mariah’s riffs, runs, inflections, colors and such could take the entirety of this video honestly. 😂

[@cloverland193]

Christopher Davis well said. Basically Mariah doesn’t do the “most” when it comes to her live performances, although most of her live performances are better than the studio versions, she doesn’t add the extra parts of her voice, like riffing and running all over the place or etc 😂.

[@justjuven4846]

well that's not what I hear my friend. Her runs are unique just like what the commentator here says all the time. I think Celine's greatest performances however were not those found in live videos but during her rehearsals. I think the real magic and gem with how she improvises and how good she she really is uknown to the world because they are 90% during her practice and rehearsals.

[@franciscojr.5383]

@@farismazhar7748 true…I usually don’t like overdone riffing and runs after one another, I feel like it’s just too much but somehow I loved when Celine do runs/riff

Céline has never stopped seeing her vocal cord specialist and remains completely silent a day or two before a show when she can. I remember seeing David Foster say that Celine had discipline and Mariah only had a humidifier and she neglected herself as she got older.

[@ricardo19986]

All three are in the trinity for a reason. Mariah and h er amazing whistles and runs, transitions. No one can change that for her. She's one of the greatest and ill always be. No matter what. Sure her voice has lowered or whatever and lost certain power, but she still kills it even today. Whitney, Rest In Peace, was one of the best. Her ability and power. Will always be the best, even after her horrid vocal fall, she will always go down in history. Celine, the only artist I've seen who can run in such uniqueness. Her scale is completely different from the western scale. Celine has done even more amazing runs that has not been shown here, but I think you get the point. She runs so uniquely, that no one else can. She runs the fastest out of all, and the clearest. So quick, you can keep up, but still so clear, you hear every single note. She's the only one that has kept her voice the best and is still slaying up to today. I hope fandoms can realize that both Celine and Mariah are amazing, and not push untrue facts. I respect both artists and they can still slay any common artists, including Ariana. Thanks for the reaction, loved it. Celine runs are the best, quick, fast, little fast, just amazing. So is Mariah. Whitney is amazing as well.

[@GarageStudio7]

René Chèvaprâwatdumrongsoü Celine is definitely the most unique but Mariah is more agile. She utilizes legato so most people miss the distinct notes she covers.

[@lizatsurkan4323]

This was a great video, showed great stuff from everybody! 1:12 - 1:22 is one of my favorite runs of Celine's. loved Whitney's headvoice runs as well. 1:29 "what even is that?" - let me explain: that is proof that when people assign her the water element they are making the correct choice - it's a question of fluidity

[@soritualimbong4544]

[@dannysimion]

This video is awesome because you really react to them in a manner that lets us know you definitely are sensitive to their vocals- these women are legit in their own rights!

[@jaycastro07]

Celine is the most unbelievable and the most surprising of the three given the fact that Mariah and Whitney are master users of melisma. Celine is definitely the champion of melismas in fact. Love her or hate her, she has proven herself time after time (even today) and that's what you cannot take away from her.

[@jikookietings2507]

I think Celine was most surprising because she has always been considered a belter. Mariah and Whitney have always been known for their agility, so seeing Celine's agile feats really surprised everyone because it wasn't expected.

[@dioncarey3630]

[@preciousmaneke8213]

Much respect for Whitney.. She's got the voice.. Best when it comes to vocals... Argue with your Data.

[@MrSoulshock44]

When you wanna do a video compilation, the problem with Whitney is that her best runs/riffs/transitions are audio footage from the 80's and none of them were included here.

[@razrv3lc]

MrSoulshock44 I wish that the channels that specialize in each of these singers would come together to make a compilation so that the best of all three could be included. If one person makes it, there’s going to be one that’s better represented just because the singer is that person's favorite of the three and they know their material the best. That way we could get someone who loves Celine to include all of Celine's best, we could get someone who loves Mariah to include all of Mariah's best, and we could get someone who loves Whitney to include all of Whitney's best!

[@d.srandandreassen1705]

Three Queens. I love that these three are INDISPUTABLY the three greatest and best vocalists in history and we get a treat of being able to see them here in one clip to see them shine in their areas they are strongest in. I agree that Celine is the most underrated vocalist of the three. It might be because she is not American and therefore is not as celebrated as much as the other two that were born in the states where “global” pop music comes from. I love all three but if I had to pick the greatest amongst the three, it would be Celine not only because of her abilities but also because of the three, she has remained the most consistent throughout the decades and I think that counts for something. No shade though, I am a MEGA fan of all three and all three have special places in my heart. And Christmas is around the corner so I’m going to be listening to probably only Mariah for a while lol
