Finally! Someone who truly realizes Mariah's ARTISTIC use of her whistle register. It's definitely what separates her in a whole different level from the bunch that can do the said technique. She never shows off this method but rather infuse it musically in her songs which makes it more appealing and just simply satisfying to listen. With that said, her basically singing in different methods, as what you have mentioned as well, is all about musical approach.

[@krissy9128]

@@ciarrajohnson3849 there's a clip of her in a black dress on stage (can't recall the year) where she jokingly does operatic singing. She sang "I can't hear you" because her monitor wasn't working and she was waiting for the sound people to fix it...so she was playing around on stage.

[@ciarrajohnson3849]

@@krissy9128 Which has what to do with the period to which I referred (before 12)❓ Nothing! All ANYONE WILL EVER SEE is post-signing, not before. The dress you referred to is probably the “all I had” she mentioned a few times (and might still have). All I’m saying (always said) is she was robbed of footage. I have a camcorder in my house and can’t sing, yet Patricia’s goofy ass never considered one and she’s such a “premier diva”. Many singers can go back in video, but she can’t and that fux me up because she’s a natural artist. Not many of those out here💔💔💔💔💔I love how he puts words to her in his videos and turns her into a musical instrument dissected, though💖💖

The best performance in mainstream music. Impossible to replicate, there is no cover with the original arrangement, not even remotely close. Flawless technique

[@LesageSinging]

her technique is completely an utterly ludicrous. her musicianship is also really really strong

[@theshowmustgoon4287]

@@LesageSinging And you still have a lot to see !! Her musicianship and musicality are literally unmatched by anyone

[@mijalakis3]

She wrote this song with Carole King. Mariah uses her whistles smartly, they arenot there just to be sung. She uses them as an exaltation like in this song and Visión of Love. She can mimic instruments like a guitar solo in Bringing on the heartache, a Piccolo in Music Box and also uses it as a background, just to give the song a better ambiance like her songs The Wind and her live performance ft John Legend of I'm born again, anger in Don't forget about us. She can also manipulate the texture of her whistles: Piercing: Theres got to be a way, breathy: Never too far, metallic: Bringin on the heartache and You need me, Crystalline: Underneath the stars, melodic: Loverboy etc. Everything she does has a musical or an interpreting purpose on her songs, they are not there to wow, they are they to enrich the production value of her work.

[@ciarrajohnson3849]

Carole the Diva❤️❤️

[@VI.VIII.V]

This is a perfect description of how she utilizes her whistle register. Other singers (not shading anyone specific) imo tend to just whistle for the sake of proving they can hit it, whereas Mariah's whistles have so many different textures and it fits perfectly with the song. As Rihanna once said her voice is like an orchestra.

[@ikexbankai]

Mariah is known for her hand movements but, if you pay enough attention to how her hands move as she singing, you can see that they sort of display what her voice is doing. She also uses them to sort of direct herself in a certain way vocal. It's like some sort of language she developed with her own body and if you spend enough time watching her, her hands most of the time hehe certain movements they correlate to certain vocal techniques that she uses.

[@Cactusfruitsquisher]

It's just an interesting display of how connected her body is to her singing

[@jonathanm.9801]

A lot of singers move their body in a certain way especially their arms and their hands because the voice follows the body. Singing with arm movement can help move the voice easier than if you were just static.

[@loudeillunzaga4476]

She's been doing breathy sounds since day 1. Fun fact: She said her demos are full of breathy sound. It was recorded in a 25 dollars machine. And when she was re recording it for the album in sony, the weird thing the machine (cost thousands) unable to produce it. Mariah started singing at 4. One time she even corrected her mother (an opera singer) a right note when doing a rehearsal. That's how keen is her ears. Their house was full of music from classical, to rnb, hiphop, pop, country, rock.. dance tracks.. almost all genre. And all of these influenced her. She also thought that all singers she heard in the radio are all also their works/writings. That triggered to mariah to make/write songs on her own. Fun fact: One of her songs from the demo that included in debut album "Alone In Love" was written in her teens (14yo) Her demos are full of RNB and the management told her she won't do that. Cause RNB that time is not strong compare to genres of whitney/aretha/celine which are more on ballads/gospel/full of belts. She started to talk and became more crazy about hiphop after this 1992 era.

[@ciarrajohnson3849]

Mariah said before when making songs. Melody comes first and since she's an rnb singer. All the instruments just came end. That's why you cannot easily sing a mariah carey's song if you can't do all of her signature melismas..
