Mariah Carey NEVER TOO FAR/HERO live @ NY City Hall Park

[@maximhamley6662]

That moment when Mariah's "lowest point in her career" is higher than everyone else's peak

[@zgsanpedro]

17 years after, the album Glitter soar high in iTunes Chart!

[@thefamilitchichannel1341]

And she was battling bipolar disorder her mind wasn't fully there but still she had more brain power and creativity than half the music industry put together

[@huytran5193]

Gary Manuel well, believe it

[@hadiolav851]

Gary Manuel why not? The first song is never too far away.

@@hadiolav851 Because is very beautiful 😍❤ I'm crying😢😢😢

[@hadiolav851]

[@KuyaBJLaurente]

Nudge me, guys, if this is really the time of Mariah's "career decline". This is a million-fold better than the career peak of any artists today!!

[@Cc7618]

Yes and Its the time when she made the most beautiful Songs. Albums "Charm bracelet and Glitter"

[@krist.t21]

Salvador Laurente Jr ikr she's really underrated😢

[@nicky5548]

Salvador Laurente Jr this is late but Glitter/charm bracelet was her second prime..... some of the best live performances of her career

[@seerpou]

period!!!!

[@HS-sr3go]

This album sold over 5 million copies most artists can never do that with 1 album.

[@DjDarkrace]

she is the ONLY one who can sing like this , perfection, wow

[@Guest-wb8gx]

Agree all the way. I wish she sang this again.

[@anastasiahromanova6529]

2001-2004 were great years for Mariah vocally.

[@jaybeetv5808]

Anastasia Romanov Extremely great. Only years that were better were 1993-1996

[@thedivasofsupreme6190]

+JayBeeTV 1990-1997 Mariah is the best Live vocalist in the planet. 2001-2006 was a great years for her vocally.

[@SomewhereOnTheOutside]

@@thedivasofsupreme6190 Yess But 1993-1996 Was her prime

[@lennykohen]

I love how airy the whistles were in that time

[@SomewhereOnTheOutside]

@@lennykohen From 1997-2004 her whistles was very airy

[@kristyparker4147]

she sounded amazing, her voice was so clear and she sang with ease. I miss that Mariah 😢

[@NickMcOjoni]

You're absolutely right. I love her so much but it seems like she's afraid to hit some notes. Too many times,now,her throat closes.

[@clydeclyde2901]

every singer are changing because of aging, that's their voice was change

[@sevaelacoc]

+Clyde Clyde Actually vocal changes caused by age are results of bad technique (there are a lot of singers whose voices didn't change at that age), her voice hasn't changed that much, but she probably finds it harder to reach some notes (because of age, but that's not vocal change), she should just take some time to rest and improve her technique and she would be as awesome as she used to be (in terms of technical singing), 'cause she still can slay. I think she should try to get rid of these awful nodules, her whistles have lost some of their quality, but she could relearn them, just take time and find the right vocal coach. PS. Forgive if I made any mistakes, I'm not a native speaker.

[@andresahatsidabutar4711]

Is that because drinking wine?

[@merayahcarey9390]

Mariah is the best singer in the world‼️ Her talent is incomparable

[@lesterjames6829]

This Performance should be in Guiness World Record.

[@bclislife]

I wish she would perform this again.

[@polobaluyut6816]

Same. There is a 0.001% chance now because she finally acknowledged Glitter with Loverboy.

[@justinlevon327]

Lambily Loft you got your wish

[@StevenSenjaya]

No hate but now I wish she would perform this again 100% live acapella

[@grandintart6358]

Is no one gonna talk about how beautiful and flawless that whistle was transitioning into Hero!!! 😍😍😍😵😵😵

[@Neonlike0]

She improvised that part on top of it!

[@StevenSenjaya]

In my opinion, this was her best performance surpassing all of her performances in 1997-2000. Even though her belt wasn't that high here, her singing was very comfortable and her tone was really gorgeous here

[@butterflyera]

She was almost 100% rested here after what the horrendous rainbow era did to her voice

[@NotyourDad54]

That's why her whistle was really strong here, when her nodules are bigger she can whistle easier and harder to belt, vice versa

[@ParkerSpears]

Im personally a mariah fan but think mariah and whitney are apples and oranges. mariah is more sultry and melodic and whitney has more soul and rhythms. Both are timeless

[@polobaluyut6816]

Soul is completely subjective tho

[@iago07]

Vulnerability it really isn’t tho... 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@aenmyeoljong1768]

Sorry. Mariah, with her vocal characteristics and capabilities, is like fruit cocktail while Whitney can only pick one fruit to be.

[@thefamilitchichannel1341]

Soul is objective in a sense but not completely. Mariah has proven to have soul with her ability to convey emotions regardless of whether she sings exactly like the record or hits every single note perfectly. In this version for instance she significantly lowered the key of hero but still managed to touch our spirits

[@honestperson3042]

@@aenmyeoljong1768 Well said

[@tredom03]

At 3:13, the way she sings "hope" gives me chills.. I've probably watched that part 20+ times in one minute..

[@neworleans504fresh]

That "never too far" in the whistle register is hauntingly beautiful. Amazing performance

[@RafaMedinadaydream]

Look inside you and be strong, And you'll finally see the truth, that a hero lies in you (:

[@pieropinoo]

Rafa Medina OUOOO UOOO LOOOORD KNOOOIW

[@migueltaylor266]

It’s a masterpiece, and she is a legend.

[@krist.t21]

i love this era. sounds better than daydream to me, her tone, the raspiness, the angelic whistle, i love this era 😔💓

[@SomewhereOnTheOutside]

Rainbow + Charmbracelet = Glitter. Rainbow - *Glitter* - Charmbracelet

[@Guest-wb8gx]

Yeah, the only thing is that it’s harder for her to high notes since she’s aging and her voice is maturing in this era especially. Which explains why she’s dodging lots of notes

[@honestperson3042]

The tone is a preference but overall Daydream is superior vocally

[@allthingsmusic2024]

Daydream's ability to hit high notes + Rainbow's agility + Butterfly's raspiness amd sultriness = Glitter

[@AgentAO7]

Vocal gymnastics at its finest! The transition from low to high to low to high notes is just insane!

[@matheuscataneozamparetti2257]

that whistle in Never too Far it's so Beautiful, pure magic.

[@iorlanch6290]

1:55 this part make my cry, she will always be perfect

[@Andrea-cp8ng]

This was just pure magic. Her whistles, the quality if the upper belts, the runs, just magic. How can somebody say that her maximum was till 1997? I mean, I just love her belts in this era! The intro of Never to Far, that a capella part is wow😍

[@thiaguspoga]

i love the elegant way She place her finger on to her ear to hit a whistle note , so beautiful

[@go2mac]

So beautiful. Mariah is the greatest among them.

[@jfrnz1703]

i love her tone during this era.... so clear

[@DaniloStrever]

+Marco Chessa - How right you are Marco, and I adore how it was meshed with Never Too Far. I have a newfound appreciation for that song thanks to this.

[@MarcoChessa94]

yes they blend beutifully :) and those whistles make it more magical!

[@seanmm3959]

They do indeed! :)

[@RogerNichele]

Nobody is ever going to sing like her, her voice is gift...she's unique.

[@rubyred93chev]

_This is the Mariah I know, and fell in love with. Consider this: 911 had just happened, plus MC was still reeling from the Glitter debacle, and her emotional breakdown, yet she comes out singing deep from her heart, leaving it out there on the stage. Talk about legendary!_

[@ricobhi]

She's one of a very few performers who can vocalize in her whistle range. And she was PERFECT on this performance. Stellar!! She's #1!!!

[@0928calmshadow]

She gives me faith and security of myself...of the things i need to achieve... Bless her music and Bless the one and only Mariah carey

[@Bleuxman]

This is what I mean when I say a lot of people can hit whistles notes and maybe even higher but only SHE can SING in whistle tones and make it sound musical. Beautiful. Peerless.

[@StevenSenjaya]

1:55 that whistle runs is too beautiful

[@fernandom.6534]

[@rudwiljohnamaro905]

*LYRICS* You're with me Till the bitter end What we had transcends This experience Too painful to Talk about So I'll hold it in Till my heart can mend And be brave enough to love again A place in time Still belongs to us Stays preserved in my mind In the memories there is solace Oh Never too far away I won't let time erase One bit of yesterday 'Cause I have learned that Nobody can take your place Though we can never be I'll keep you close to me Always remember Love There's a hero, if you look inside your heart You don't have to be afraid of what you are There's an answer, if you reach into your soul And the sorrow that you know will melt away And then a hero comes along, with the strength to carry on And you cast your fears aside, and you know you can survive So when you feel like hope is gone Look inside you and be strong And you'll finally see the truth, that a hero lies in you Lord knows, dreams are hard to follow But don't let anyone, tear them away Hold on, there will be tomorrow In time, you'll find the way And then a hero comes along, with the strength to carry on And you cast your fears aside, and you know you can survive So when you feel like hope is gone Look inside you and be strong And you'll finally see the truth, that a hero lies in you That a hero lies in you Nobody can take your place You’re never too far

[@KevenTalks]

It's so interesting to think the years when her voice was in its prime were also the years when her personal life was turbulent (1993-1995, 2001-2002). It's like she could never have her cake and eat it too...

[@AJBSONIC]

the way she works that whistle register live is a true gift

[@larrydiaz253]

At 2:00 when she whistled "so" and transitioned into Hero, I melted. Love her. We are Lambily!

The best singer Mariah and the othe rone is Whitney Houston

I can't get over the way she sounds after the whistle at the start of HERO... "When you feel like hope is gone", her voice sounds warm and spectacular! Mesmerized!!

[@eigen1255]

This is one of her most gorgeous performances. They've only done this arrangement of 'Hero' about three times (love the "you've got to, you've got to..." in 2:37).

There may be artists who can whistle higher (e.g., Adam Lopez) and longer (e.g., Georgina Brown) than Mariah, but I guess the only one who can do "lyrical whistles" like 3:49 is Mariah.

[@ddKingz-gs8jc]

What did u say...whistle higher. I think you should clear your head again. U ever heard all in your mind by mariah Carey. The only person who whistled higher than her is goergia brown and mini i think - not sure but don't ever say Adam lopez. Not even close

It amazes me that people say that mariah has done nothing to contribute to society, she has done a ton of things that contribute to people! Her voice was really good in this era, i dont get why everyone said her voice had deteriorated, its there and is still here today!

[@ciarrajohnson3849]

Just read her book and here’s what preceded this performance: Her mom calls the police on her (in an altercation with her mom, in the house MARIAH BOUGHT)❗️❗️SHE HAD NOT SLEPT IN 6 DAYS and, rather than telling Mariah to shut up and go to bed, she calls the fkn police and has Mariah COMMITTED! That was the “breakdown”! Then the artistic miscarriage happened (Glitter), so to think that her voice withstood all that stress is a miracle

[@justinsamaroo8880]
