She doesn't age, i mean she's doing this for almost 3 decades. Respect this Legend

[@thefamilitchichannel1341]

Yeah this year we're celebrating mc30

[@thernrplace3424]

2:14 She nailed the "my soul" riff. Incredible agility :)

[@mezmerized4lifejay654]

3:13 onward 🤤🔥 i love when she improvises. I want more moments like this, go mimi!!!

[@brando_taurus]

[@robcanz7508]

Yeap. Mariah is about to hit another prime I think. I feel, hear and see that she’s finally realizing who the fuck she is. The Songbird Supreme. She’s an Aries honey. True Arians never give up on their dreams lol. #TeamMariah😩 #imwithher ❤️❤️❤️ I’m just so proud to see her still doing her thing 30 years in the game. A living legend!

[@gwbiii]

I been saying that she needs to come into her present day voice more. She kills her mid range these days, especially those B4s. I just want her to be comfortable and LIVE!!!

[@IWeasel]

Huni she’s been realized and knew who the fuck she was. I think she’s just carried so much dead weight until she lost touch of herself some but this here was beautiful. Honestly she can still sing and her vocal nodules is sometimes her only true limitations because here for example you can tell she really wanted to kill this song 💯 percent she felt it so deeply it’s just those vocal limitations was kicking her butt but she worked around those I love this new version she recreated without even knowing it lol

[@thefamilitchichannel1341]

I'm an aries too! We aries are about to rise up and shake the world lmao

[@kimbellabailey3863]

And just like that 10 months later she got her 19th #1 💜🐑

No singer in this generation can reach Mariah Carey's level of vocal slayage in her prime.

[@adamjones6371]

Don’t f**k with Mariah. The queen is still reigning and ain’t nobody worthy of taking the crown. We are not worthy

[@christopherstreet2214]

I miss these kind of songs ... they just ooooz class and elegance

I love the falsettos in the beginning. Hope she does those tomorrow bc I'll be there.

When I get a job in a couple months I’m so going to save up money for me and my mom to go see her

[@christopherstreet2214]

It’s so worth it ... her live shows are do nice

[@BubbasBathWater]

Update, I never got a job but I used my fafsa to take my mom and we want this last February and we had a blast

[@Daydream30583]

@Adrian Campbell Seen her in London and Detroit the work she has put in considering she had 2014-2017 terrible years vocally that's why she's untouchable

[@ce3540]

[@jairocordova3448]

2:56-3:00 is everything to me.... I love that part...

[@crystalmorisson4810]

I hope she revisits more of her classic songs like If Its Over, So Cold, vanishing, All in your mind etc. This is beautiful

[@crystalmorisson4810]

@2023 Geoffrey Aptt nah I think it'll be fine if she pitches/rearranges it around her current voice. Of course not every night tho 🙂

[@mylesthomas6631]

All in her own time. She needs confidence!!!

[@faithoffaith]

God I just love her tone here. Just beautiful x

[@damianjo910]

Awesome Mariah. .!!!. you have worked your butt off to get your voice back on track...I'm amazed as you worked tirelessly over the years for us fans !! It makes me so mad when people bash your voice... you gave your amazing voice to us all these years!!! I Still love listening to you now and old times.. love you Mariah. Xxx . So glad you have found happiness xx

[@EduardPerez27]

The whistle is just heaven

[@trongnghiahuynh1903]

I'm shocked. Absolutely beautiful 100% live. She attempted every note in studio version

[@vanillaoverdosed7398]

No the bridge is lip sync and "here I am still holding on." +whistles

[@audreyf9092]

Vanilla Overdose whistled are not lip synced

[@vanillaoverdosed7398]

@@audreyf9092 usually if she shakes her head it's lipsynced cus body language (shaking as in No i didn't do it.)

[@HallOfMimi]

Vanilla Overdose Well, I’m guessing she pre-recorded it. Last year, her she had this whistle as well but lower but also lighter. This whistle is much higher and lighter as well, so I guess that’s two versions. But, it depends she didn’t shake her head much unlike Emotions now.

[@vanillaoverdosed7398]

@@HallOfMimi yes. If you see her live whistles she enters this frozen state where she barely moves her head but can move her body. Even in her legendary heartbreaker lip sync performance, she was pretending to force her notes out by exhaling and moving her head since she was lipsyncing but when the audio cut off she just stood still and squeezed the notes out live.

[@smulemaster]

She sounds so brilliantly now...

[@atorwbmax5867]

30 years later and she still the best singer in the world!

she should sing this song more, she killing it !

This was MARVELOUS and MAGNIFICENT! I’m so glad Mariah is getting her confidence back and getting comfortable with her voice! Her rasp that she developed later on in her career is one of my many favorite parts of her voice.

This Bitch is singing again. I am Team Mariah for real now. The most noticeable part is that she is connecting her notes in a smoother transition. The choppiness of the sound seems to have been lessened. Most important is her confidence. So happy for her.
