She is indeed one of the greatest vocalists. The one and only Songbird Supreme. Her talent is otherworldly and incomparable. Such a blessing given to mankind.

the one live 2005 at oprah is better, people still argue if it was playback or not its so good

[@DarielAndre]

[@cadenceglass8809]

Nah this was better. When listening with headphones it's clearly live.

[@techview2834]

​@@cadenceglass8809i feel the end parts are pre recorded. Her best was in BET awards imo

[@debussy842]

@@techview2834 Which end part? The fade away of the last "together" is the only thing that sounds "pre-recorded" but it's much lower than the climax of the song which she executed. Anyone that has been singing for years would naturally build up their lung capacity to sustain a note for that long.

[@ChristopherMagnus-wk7lb]

The last minute of this performance alone shows why Mariah has been and will be the best singer in the world.

They also have very different voices and singing styles all together so the comparison falls flat, because Mariah can't be Whitney, and Whitney can't be Mariah.

[@andilamont]

Its surreal to think someone can actually sing this big and beautiful. Her voice is Olympic.

[@echobonx4118]

Sadly not full live bro. The high end part is obviously lipped. I can hear the change of quality during the end parts.

[@Amanda-sf3pj]

​@@echobonx4118Why do they say it's lip sync? Why does it sound like the studio version? She is MARIAH CAREY, not just any singer, she can achieve that and more. It seems like they want Mariah to completely change the tone and melody so they can believe it's live.

[@nenej12]

[@agentsquish]

@@nenej12 ill second this. you can obviously hear when she strains and you can see her pushing it all out in the last bit

[@JD-xd4sy]

@@agentsquish There is a change to the quality of her voice exactly at 2:54. I guess it could be the sound engineer that switches something with the levels - but it could obviously also be that it is when the lipped part starts. Who knows? She's that good, so everyone can only speculate.

[@user-in9fo9cu1k]

When everyone counted her out, years of no number 1 hits, a lot of harsh words has been said, then suddenly she release the Emancipation of Mimi and this song of the decade. She's just too powerful..
