[@mikejustin5437]

I was there !!! I cant believe shes truly coming out from the door !!! Her voice is so angelic I swear !!! She is pretty at close !!!!

[@taufththingy3673]

OMG Which One is u in The video I'll die if i met her

[@tamlynn786]

I would have spazzed out! Lol you are so lucky to have seen her in real life!

[@nakharinrueangritkul6857]

OMG ❤️

[@danisetherley2582]

What is it like to have her walk in and be that close?

[@lukashprince9887]

You are a lucky man.Good health.🇵🇱🦋

[@msJessyFrance]

2:31 the blond woman with closed eyes! Priceless facial expression! a few seconds later when she realizes MC is there!

"Am I dying? Are we dead?" Best quote ever.

[@leeway1331]

i replied outloud to my computer when she said that was: "naaah _itch, you're in heaven."

[@lauracorbett4577]

That's how I would be if Britney Spears surprised me

Because she has anniversaries, dahling.

I'm crying right now. I really can't take all the hate for mariah right now. they all forgot how good mariah is as a singer and as a person. I still love you mariah no matter what! #L4L

[@zaimonatalia6757]

Norielle Serrano you’re Filipino right?? I’m also a big fan of Mariah. I really want to be a friend of yours

[@annlu9839]

I feel you 😢

[@metaldreams3595]

You should do a Leave Mariah Alone! video like the gay dude

[@maretijewel1470]

Norielle. There 's people who are professional haters & hate EVERYONE along with their own guts & this includes Mariah who tortures them with her beauty & talent.. So don't bother... 😋

[@ISANJEEVME]

Soul mates & friends are the biggest & rarest treasures.

[@CalexanderJ]

Best parts 0:46 Jimmy trying not to crack up 1:36 "Am I dying?" LMAO 2:33 Girl grooving with her eyes closed not realizing Mariah's in the room 2:34 thinks her bf is just feeling the song 2:37 finally realizes it.

[@bilalc4415]

That delayed response was the best!! 🤣🤣

[@ambrosialsongbird9313]

I love how she sounds better singing it live here than the studio version.

[@shnitzellink4833]

unlike so many other singers, she sounds just as good live as she does in the recordings!

[@ShuukeiHakutenkei]

***** Awful? You know what you're saying? Not every singer with nearly 25 years of career that can sing so much like the studio version. Her voice changed, the tone has changed, but she continues to sing as well as in the 90s, but with limitations of her "new" tone.

[@taeydream]

Renan PM it's more than just her tone. her voice has become severely hindered in comparison to her voice during her prime, but she's still singing pretty well. i mean, even after over two decades of singing in the studio and during concerts, her voice is still so much better than that of so many pop artists these days.

[@DJQTUBE]

Renan PM Very well-stated, Renan.

[@twinsylvia17]

shnitzel link I know right!!!! New singers are suck, Mariah could actually sing!!

[@BassByTheBay]

@@ShuukeiHakutenkei You mean nearly *30* years. "Vision Of Love" (her first hit) came out in 1990!

[@whirlaway05]

I wish I had've been there. I love her. She's the only celebrity I'd wanna meet. She seems like such a hoot to hangout with.

[@lalalaunstar]

Youd be a hoot too;p

[@minagerges1992able]

This made me cry, did this make anyone else cry?

[@diegosv1979]

to me... no doubt about it

YES!!

I sure did! lol

[@nhuquynhnguyenbui5531]

Mina Gerges I keep on trying to stop crying every time I replay this

[@JavierRojas-wt2uz]

Me too....I love that woman...God....

[@2bposedny]

don't understand why people hate on Mariah, i think is beyond jealousy.

[@2bposedny]

so is not you taste in music why are you watching this video...?

[@daesuke2538]

bum4evr everyone can have their own taste..But hating on someone just because it doesn't suit your own taste?

[@RafaMedinadaydream]

***** she already redeemed herself at Beacon Theater though ( :

[@RafaMedinadaydream]

***** I loved this emotions performance watch?v=5yLR-phFxh8. And some people say she can't whistle anymore...

[@bum4evr]

i regret my comment about Mariah... because in the grand scheme of things... nobody cares.. seriously.. if your life revolves around Mariah Carey - then you are a nutcase who needs to find something else in life to focus on.. cant do that? then u are a nut. sorry.. someone has to tell you.

[@niltash4ever]

Every line in this song is as deep as an entire paragraph. The more I listen the more other aspects of me connect to the song. Only Mariah Carey can be able narrate the entire art of letting go in one song. So good.

[@lordalchemis]

This was so awesome

[@EngrJA_RMP]

🥹

[@broccoli8944]

Mariah doesn't need to proof anything more. Now what she's focusing is her connection with the Lambily. She makes music for them, on tour to meet them. I just hope I'm one of them in there. She's just far more than perfect. Way beyond descriptions.

[@Kessie4102]

I never even considered myself a Mariah fan, but I was crying watching the pure joy on the faces of the superfans. What an awesome idea. Thanks Jimmy and Mariah.

[@reiAYANAMI1992]

I just want to say that i´ve been a huge fan of Mariah Carey since i was a baby! My older sister used to sing songs to me of Mariah. And everytime i used to feel sad, i listen to one of her songs and i became happy again. Now keep in mind that if this would have happened to me i probably would have either pee my pants, cry like a baby, faint, or scream so loud till my throat hurts. I love Mariah so much!!!!!!!

[@reiAYANAMI1992]

Anna Laitinen page not found

[@terragaia86]

Me too

[@sentfromupabove]

So jealous of the fans. DAMN her vocals!!!!!!!!!!!! She did THAT RIFF @ 2:20 and did that sustained C#5 at 2:53! Then belted Eb5s onwards 3:27 faaallin..sounds better than the studio falsetto note :)

[@BassByTheBay]

Yeah, she was in good voice that night. She has had some not so great live moments in the past few years -- glad she sounded good here.

[@baileykurlov5110]

i was crying of jealousy... i love mariah.

[@taufththingy3673]

Correct

[@watchout81]

This is what you call PURE TALENT! No one in this world comes close to what Mariah has become! She comes with a new single that is bound to be a CLASSIC MASTERPIECE of a TRUE LEGEND. Mariah you have made this track incredibly and amazingly in any aspects. No record to date can be a compared of! Combination of highest notes and lowest notes. Congrats to MARIAH! Can't wait for the album to come out! Love Mariah's look so simple and she still look like a Diva

[@magicalandgay]

oh honey... do you realize how much effects are being used in that studio while she's singing?

[@rksu747]

Rikki Loyd Oh honey...you do realize that having a real life is so much more fulfilling than hating on people through the internet, right?

[@falconer]

Rikki Loyd She's singing this live and it sounds better than the record. What's your point? Try again. You can't deny her voice.

[@watchout81]

yes

[@markmenez4097]

Rikki Loyd do your research this was live not studio version . Just hear and the background singers. It’s people like you that troll that don’t know what you’re talking about .

[@gisellefendi5793]

I would've honestly cried my eyes out! She's amazing!

[@RafaMedinadaydream]

Cried a river watching that haha I mean, her songs really inspired me and helped get me through difficult times.If was there I'd probably faint.

[@randyrocha6069]

I can relate because her songs have literally saved my life a few times I found myself in very dark places after life-altering experiences managed to break me down. But then I'd either hear or remember one of her songs and she in a sense was the helping hand that gave me purpose and reason to refocus and start living again.

[@Pandalover22331]

The people that cried= amazing fans.

[@richardbpuentes]

Kristen Soto: she gracefully hugs her fans all the time... Gentle and Diva like... Plus her security wasn't there so maybe she was nervous. Many artist don't even get that close to their fans because fans get ruthless and the Artist don't want to deal with all that animosity. I've met Mariah 3 times and she makes sure to give her fans attention. This was an A+Mazing surprise!

[@mikel4161]

This was so touching. It makes me think about how much her music was apart of my growing up. I can understand how these people felt when she walked in the room. They were truly blessed that day

[@ajrlaws]

When u think u have seen every surprise possible, just wait and hold as Mariah Carey is still alive. This little skit is so moving (tear jerker), she touches people in the strongest ways. She is such a moving force/inspiration. I love her. True talent.....

[@fhm1330]

@ 2:32 that blonde girl was like: "this sounds live, wait let me close my eyes and feel it", 😁😁😁😍

[@HeatherCrouch]

Jimmy... you rock. I've listened to Mariah Carey's music since her very first single. You made ME squee just seeing the surprise and intense emotion on everybody's faces. You deserve a hug. I wish I could give you a hug.

[@franciszorammuanahlawnchhi4687]

The guy with tears @3:00 when Mariah was at her high note was priceless and made me shed my tears.

[@garyc]

i've met her before, but i would still totally lose my mind! gahhhh! so happy for them all

You've met Mariah Carey? Thats's like awesome and intense at the same time...

From American Idol, Facebook and now this, its great to see Mariah Carey reaching out to her fans. Go MiMi!!

[@trybeeMUSIC]

this woman is phenomenally talented. seriously, people who hate on her have NO real reason to try & degrade her other than jealousy, it all stems from jealousy.

[@RobertoRubyio]

For those who say that Mariah doesn't sing anymore, watch this at 2:55

[@mic-shellcrackson3800]

Her singing gives me goosebumps

[@Jon-bv8ut]

Loving this seriously, the impromptu-ness, her sense of humor and how she connects with her fans. And would really love to watch her live in such small intimate session with just the real lambily. I met her 3 times, charmbracelet world tour 2003, MIAM 2014 and the butterfly returns 2018 concert

[@TechnoTina56]

If Jimmy invited me there i'd fill buckets with my tears. like no joke, if i ever get to meet her i'd be crying that much. Mariah is the best!

[@trybeeMUSIC]

aint it crazy how at the time this was to nick and NOBODY knew?!!?!?!? it gives me the chills. mimi was hurting & NOBODY knew. accept me. i swear i told me friend "omfg i think this is to nick imagine?!" & she was like fuck no yeah right.. & come to find out this is when they were going through their initial separation. mariah is a woman who SPEAKS, lives, grieves, & prays through her music. she's gifted from our heavenly father. she's untouchable,

[@richierichit]

+hahahahahagaha babaha I think people still don't realize that -- maybe because the song wasn't a big hit and it wasn't heard by everyone. But I'm sure she wrote this about her marriage. I remember when it came out, I thought, "Um, she and Nick are breaking up."

[@ajreyes1262]

No, i think this song was for Tommy (Her ex-husband) "I no longer live in your dominion"

[@miguelvvvgp]

This song is actually pretty amazing. I cried.
