Mariah Carey must have known she couldn't mess about with tricks and backing tracks when performing at the 81st Annual Rockefeller Christmas Tree Lighting in New York City. After all, she was on the bill with Leona Lewis, Ariana Grande, Kelly Clarkson and Mary J Blige- all singers who have cited her as their own inspiration. Even still, I wasn't expecting this level of vocal health from the songbird!
It was evident from watching Joy To The World- which was a brave choice to sing, fully live, considering how full on it is- that the Diva's stamina is in better shape than it has been in a long while. It was because of this improvement that Mariah was sustaining belts and switching registers like the glory days.(Okay, a tiny bit hyperbolic, but it was still impressive to watch).
In addition to that, it was refreshing to watch Mariah not try to recreate the studio versions of the songs. Instead she switched up the arrangements for Joy To The World and All I want For Christmas on the fly. Something a person (me), who has watched too many live performances of these songs, really appreciated. Hopefully we'll see more of this approach from now on.
Is this a positive sign for the next chapter in the book of Mariah Carey's ever evolving voice? Only time will tell. But I sure am pumped for her next live showing!
Thoughts?
Cheers DD! I was waiting for a review of one of Kelly's many appearances lately.
ReplyDeleteI initially wasn't taken much with Underneath The Tree either but have come around a bit after seeing her sing it live a couple of times.
And you should definitely pick up that album!
btw Blue Christmas I believe is a staple christmas song in Country . Elvis being a southern boy just also happens to have covered it but many many southern singers did.:-)
And it is definitely my favorite on Kelly's christmas album.
But that Run Run Rudolph was also awesome. Thank heavens for Kelly going around proving it is indeed, in pop also, possibly to sing live and sing well! Love her! :-)
Wonderful to see Mariah sing live for real!
ReplyDeleteAnd in the spirit of christmas..I am just going to ignore what is sure to be posted by her fans. :-)
Hmm. Her voice is a lot thinner now, and dare I say, chipmunk-y even (especially at All I Want for Christmas). And kind of rough around the edges but still a nice performance. Those random placements of whistles is fun to watch.
ReplyDeleteit's interesting that both of the new-comings of Mariah also performed.
ReplyDeleteThe whistle tones are most certainly lipped, but the rest is perfection
ReplyDeleteIn "All I want for christmas" her larynx was going higher and higher, she should get some vocal coaching to keep her voice in top shape. I know she stopped taking voice lessons in the late 90's. The whistle tone was great also.
ReplyDeleteA nice rousing performance. Didnt blow my mind though. Her vocal quality isnt the best but shes certainly a capable singer.
ReplyDeleteLMAO that's the fanatic for ya. No sense of humor.
ReplyDeleteIf anybody is a troll it's you. Or to say it in language you understand...Take an auditorium of seats! :-)
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
My recycled lines eh? Glad to be an inspiration. Lacking in execution but you did well for an old troll trying to be down with the kids :) Me a Mariah Carey stan? Hell no. The chicks a has been. What i am is a bullshit detector so it goes without saying i was drawn to your posts :) A post that was a transparent attempt to initiate a war of words with stans. What a lonely existence you must have. I hope some stans fall for your bait and bring your boredom to an end. Do try and enjoy your evening ;)
ReplyDeleteyes, that is what I meant with "language you understand". I know you are fond of that ridiculous expression.
ReplyDeleteI btw never called you a Mariah stan. I called you a fanatic. I meant about me hon. (as is evident from you obviously following my haters. And btw dear, stop recycling Primo's attempted insults)
And my post was a joke relating to the previous thread on Mariah.
But if it was an attempt to initiate a war of words...guess who just fell for it?
Alas, you are not entertaining enough for me to bother for more than these two posts.
But you keep trying now! :-)
And what exactly do you think a stan is? :\ I merely replaced your reference with an interchangeable one. In hindsight it seems I over estimated your mental faculties. Spinsters just aint cut out for the net. Probably best for all concerned if you step away from your laptop and find some other form of entertainment. Go play with your pussy...cat :) Primo? Who's that? If i sound like him during the act of highlighting your bullshit then he/she sounds like someone i need to befriend. Youve been allocated way too much of my attention today. Get gone --->
ReplyDeleteWell, okay Mrs. Carey-Cannon. Her 'J.T.T.W' performance was far more, vocally, superior to that of 'A.I.W.F.C.I.Y'.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I have finally discovered why 'Ariana Grande's' tonality is so, unbelievably, nasal thus why, at times, her diction and intonation can be so awful. I found an excerpt/link of an interview she did two years ago where she confessed to having suffered from "Asthma" & "Allergic Rhinitis" all her life - the latter of which is, basically, a 'persistent nasal allergy' that causes swelling (polyps) of the tissues on the inside lining of the nose and can block the sinus drainage channels. This polyps cannot be surgically removed, without leaving severe scarring, but the infection can be controlled via. 'Pills, Healthier foods, Healthier Immune System' etc.
She said that if she were to get surgery when she was younger, there's a chance she wouldn't be able to sing, or speak properly, again.
THERE WE HAVE IT, FOLKS... Clearly, i is something that she can't help. : - D
...Kelly always delivers.
ReplyDeleteShe is definitely one of the most, highly, capable Pop singers of our generation.
A lovely, talented, Woman; I respect her so much.
Well done Mariah. JTTW was far better than AIWFC. JTTW is in a far better key for her and her belts were solid especillay 1:26 very full and resonant. All I want for Christmas shows how thin her upper range has gotten. But her whistle has remained intact and solid even after all these years.
ReplyDeleteI've always found her too hit-or-miss for me to truly consider her "great"
ReplyDeleteAnd she has this quality about her voice that when slightly pushed sounds to fragile, like it will crack at any moment.
I assume so...
ReplyDeleteI think that is why her enunciation can sound so blurring at times and you cannot understand a word she says, especially when she's singing certain styles of music. But if you watch any interview of hers, her modal/speaking voice sounds just as nasal.
What she has, clearly, will not be cured by any vocal teacher/lesson. It is a 'sinus cavity' infection that, primarily, affects the 'ethmoid sinuses' which is located between the eyes and the nasal bridge. It can also affect the septum - nasal wall and cause air obstruction, though not to much. Also, taking into account her asthmatic problems, it must be hard for her at times.
It's sad really. : (
I don't really hear nasality in Ariana's voice, it is a small/thin voice, but not particularly nasal. On the other hand, someone like Celine Dion or Heather Headley can be truly, truly nasal.
ReplyDeleteIgnore her, she's like, so fucking obsessed with me. Poor child.
ReplyDeleteI love her pop stuff but come on, rock is where she truly belongs. That performance of Run Run Rudolf was AWESOME! If my poor college-student economy allowed me, I'd buy her christmas album right away
ReplyDeleteTrue... Her voice may well be 'small' in terms of size, naturally speaking, but, now, I don't doubt that the reasons for her weak vocal projection, extremely thin sound and the reasons why she doesn't resonate so well is, as well, a result of her nasal/respiratory illnesses. You know?
ReplyDeleteNow I feel like a dick for making fun of her annunciation. Sorry Ariana. :(
ReplyDeleteI've heard her sing some broadway songs and she sounds very clear though. Like her Wicked covers.
I know right. That part confuses me also.
ReplyDeletePerhaps, stylistically speaking, only certain genre's of music suit her voice the best.
Maybe the 'straightforward' aspect of Broadway singing/phrasing brings out a purer sound of her voice as opposed to 'Melismatic- bound Pop/R&B/Soul' music.
: - /
Surgery for an foremost if nodules is her primary problem. Cut all drinking, and good ole vocal trainning with a quality coach.
ReplyDeleteHer 'Joy to the World' sounded excellent. And from what I heard, two of her belts were lipped, though obviously recently recorded. Those whistles sounded spectacular, however. 'All I Want' sounded...bad. No other word for it. Her belting register has thinned out to a ridiculous degree. Her head voice at the end sounded good, but I almost wanted to shout 'MARIAH, YOUR LYRIC-SOPRANO IS SHOWING!'.
ReplyDeleteShe would have to remove the nodes at this point - her voice is on the verge of collapse, despite her good technique. Her larynx shoots up when she belts high because she no longer has the option to belt high with an open throat.
ReplyDeleteShe always has the option, that's 100% bullshit
ReplyDeleteWhat happens is very simple: Nobody can listen to themselves and criticize themselves objectively unless they are willing to rip themselves apart each and every time, and sometimes that's what it takes. That's why we have to look for a second pair of TRAINED ears. Mariah stopped with voice lessons in the late 90's, since then it appears she hasn't had solid guidance for her voice. The voice is still there, it just needs to be reigned back in.
A lot of French-Canadian singers I know suffer from nasality, I think it has to do with their accent perhaps. I mean, Canadian french is kinda nasal, but french from France is even more so.
ReplyDeleteIn my personal opinion, based on what I know about the voice through years of private study, and what little I know based on Mariah herself has told some people, this is what I believe has happened:
ReplyDeleteMariah had a singing style before she became famous, but when she was famous she was asked to sing in a different way, similar to that of Whitney Houston - She was basically asked to imitate Whitney's vocal placement - which is the Mariah from the early 90's. As soon as she gained some control over her career, she decided to start using more of her "real" voice/style and stopped taking voice lessons (which were Tommy Mottola's idea). She started using the whisper-singing more and more, which can be as damaging to the voice as screaming because overtime it irritates and dries the vocal folds and bends them in a way that they cannot properly close anymore, creating a weakness in the singing muscles.
Without anybody to tell her "how to sing" she started to go by instinct, which is not always the best as we always need an extra pair of trained ears to help us out, so then we have albums like "Charmbracelet" that are 90% extremely nasal whispers and 10% belting. In recent years it seems her voice has continued its decay, requiring more and more processing to the voice in the studio which is a very sad. Of course, the voice is still there and she gives occassional GREATNESS, but for a day-to-day basis it seems to me her voice needs rehabilitation and someone to strictly guide her back to a "safer" (technically safe, not "without risks") sound for her; a neutral low larynx and open throat, well projected, etc.
R.I.P NELSON MANDELA!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy heart is so, enormously, full right now.
*Sigh* : - (
I am so sad. :(
ReplyDeleteThe songs felt, as it often does with Leona, like they dragged on for ages. And the version of White Christmas was a nice effort to change it up, but it just felt boring and uninspired. And the more I listen to Leona, for more I actually find her voice to be unimpressive, sure it's a decent voice, but she sounds like she always has a stuffy nose, and there's nothing particularly interesting or impressive about her voice that makes me want to continue buying her songs.
ReplyDeleteWhy would she need voice lessons if her mother is an opera singer...?
ReplyDeleteOn point as always. I think Run Run Rudolph sound better is that it's a little more country than her most popular material is, as she's trying to take her career in that direction (I've noticed you haven't covered Tie It Up yet), and it's definitely fitting to her voice. She also seems to be positively glowing after her wedding and pregnancy. Nothing really needs to be said about her voice, I mean we've praised her enough, this is just another great show to add under her belt.
ReplyDeleteNot in her best condition at all, not even close, and she still managed to deliver an awesome and vocally competent performance. Pregnancy is definitely putting a weight on her voice, and while one would mistakenly think of that as a deterrent, Kelly makes it seem as thought it's a paper weight. Child's play lol That, to me, is a testament to how truly talented she is and how great a voice she has.
ReplyDeleteThe first part of Joy to the World was a little meh to me, and the low-mid range seemed a little shaky from her, Joy to the World was never my favorite christmas song, and I wasn't even really a fan of her dancey version either, but it definitely got better in the second half, where she went up in her range and sounded stronger, and the riffs sounded a lot more interesting.
ReplyDeleteI actually didn't think her performance of her own classic song was inspiring as others. She sounded a little weak and thin at moments, especially in belts. She definitely didn't sound as bad as certain performances on GMA and American Idol this year, but I don't think it's anything to bow down to just yet. I don't wanna say she did worse than everyone in the show, but maybe at least on par.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkt0BLaOkXY Here's the performance better than WC at least.. XD
ReplyDeleteThat's the funny thing, though - Mariah's an absolute perfectionist. So she probably DOES rip herself apart every time she hears a bad note, or something doesn't sound right. But she needs those nodes gone for good - they impede her voice now more than ever. It's INCREDIBLY difficult to get proper cord closure when you have nodes (I would know), especially as you belt higher, and the more you go up, the harder it is to get your larynx to stay down, because unlike a regular set of vocal cords, they have to be curbed to even stay together, much less belt in the 5th octave. Any voice teacher would probably tell her point-blank to get those nodules removed.
ReplyDeleteThought these performances were quite good (as opposed to her last showing at Rockefeller Center). Chest notes were overall consistent. Had some nice falsetto and whistle. I liked her new sound - as you mentioned - with more interesting melisma and not more of the same.
ReplyDeleteYes, a few pushed/weak notes and inconsistencies, but I'm happy nevertheless.
The best part was that I detected ZERO - that's right, zero! - lipping or pre-recorded bits. I applaud her just for that because it seems so rare these days that I catch her without any studio tricks in her 'live' performances.
Hoping to see more of the same!
Sorry Mariah, these were just meh for me. Not a bad performance, but just....lacking.
ReplyDeleteHer voice has always been thin. Even in some songs of her first album, her voice sounds really thin.
ReplyDeleteDon't dance around it lol. Mariah's voice is not what it used to be, and I'd be lying if I tried to say that her live singing now is as good as most of the other performers. Her voice is still there, I think, but she's lost a lot of the ease she used to have maneuvering it. Most of her singing sounds rough.
ReplyDeleteI second the stuffy nose reference. I feel like Leona's voice lacks the ability to direct emotion in her performances. Even for fun-go-lucky-with-a-cup-of-holiday-cheer songs like One More Sleep I feel like Leona delivers with so much technical skill that it's boring.
ReplyDeleteOpera singers at the top of their level (far more than Mariah's mom ever achieved as far as career goes) kept taking voice lessons till the day they retired, and many of them kept up their vocal and breathing exercises till the day they died. It is extreme ignorance to think that studying some when one was very young is enough for the rest of your life. It isn't. As I said, one needs an extra pair of trained ears to keep the voice in check. The singer cannot objectively judge himself/herself the way a voice teacher can.
ReplyDeleteI don't know - her Joy to the World sounds better than any performance I heard at the AMAs this year besides Ariana. Her voice isn't where it is, obviously, but it's completely unfair to say that she doesn't still trump everyone but the top artists today who are in their primes. Those nodes, I will agree, need to GO.
ReplyDeleteThe thing of vocal nodules is 100% bullshit excuse. Sure, with them her voice might require more rest, but it doesn't cause her voice to decay. Nana Mouskouri was born with uneven vocal cords which gave her voice a raspy sound and made it difficult for her to phonate, and she kept her voice mostly intact by keeping up voice lessons till she was into her 60's.
ReplyDeleteMariah's vocal decline is not the nodules, it is the whispering and other small vocal bad habits that with time have caught up with her.
I figured that was the only option.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. She needs rest as well.
ReplyDeleteGetting them removed could mean losing her upper register though, as it happened to Natalie Dessay (famous soprano).
ReplyDeleteBut no, actually singing whispery all the time ends up bending the vocal cords and preventing them from closing properly.
When have I called vocal technique a farce? You are being ridiculous. I've had nothing but complimentary things to say about vocal technique since I started posting- you can check my disqus posts if you want, they keep a history of that kind of thing.
ReplyDeleteAs for your claims of knowing people who have 'asked' Mariah such things... well, such claims are hardly verifiable and are dubious at best. Not accusing you of lying of course, just making my point that no one will ever take such statements at face-value.
Please don't ever end your statements with something as juvenile as 'and you will deal', especially when it doesn't even work the way you are trying to use it. You come off as a self-absorbed individual trying to lord over others by acting overly condescending.
I notice you have a history of picking fights with people all across this website. You've made digs at Opie for stating her own opinion, and now you've reacted very defensively to a very mild post I made. Frankly, your hostility is unwarranted, and please try to understand that DD wants to keep a friendly environment.
Now, responding to your post itself:
Of course styling and technique are different. But, if an artist wants to deviate from standard technique to achieve a desired styling more easily, well, that's their own decision, isn't it?
Nodes are miniature bends in the vocal cords, so to speak. When you have nodes, it's much easier to sing breathy than it is to sing full-voiced. Before I had nodes, creating breathy sounds was physically difficult, but once they developed, that breathy 'hiss' became difficult to get rid of. And, to be honest, I'd rather she sounded amazing in 3 octaves rather than somewhat alright in 4.5. Besides, Dessay can still pull an Eb6, so she only lost the stratospheric notes - it's not as if she can't sing lyric soprano roles.
ReplyDeleteNodules are not a bs excuse. By definition, nodules are growths on the vocal folds. This will certainly impair vocalization, which is produced through the folds that now have growths on them. Of course, with good vocal technique, one might retain their voice, but changes are inevitable.
ReplyDeleteNot saying that the nodules are the only issue. Mariah has aged and does have some bad vocal habits. But to claim that physical impediments to singing are a 'bs excuse' is just a fallacy.
She has some good moments, but consistency is what's important. I can't sing very well, but once in a while, I'll be able to do a good run or a good belt. Does that make me a good singer?
ReplyDeleteSo while Mariah has had some performances that are indeed above and beyond, the majority of them are subpar.
A few of her belts unhealthily cracked and it was apparent that the performance was far from effortless, but it's refreshing to see Mariah sing live without completely exhausting herself.
ReplyDeleteRead again what I said "nodules might require her voice to have more rest, but it doesn't cause the voice to decay". Nodules alone won't ruin a voice. And usually they affect a specific area of the voice, in fact, for some people it affects a specific note, not a whole entire register.
ReplyDeleteOnly when she's at a vocally tired moment. Unfortunately, that seems to be more and more the case. I mean, people are saying 'she just needs rest - just rest her voice, and she'll be fine'. However, that won't cut it anymore. She hasn't had a live performance in months. She needs to get rid of her nodes before her voice falls apart completely.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, the comment I had seen was by someone else who also had a japanese sounding name.
ReplyDeleteIf you state your opinion believing it to be facts and the facts are simply wrong, I'll call you out on it. I don't see how that is wrong at all. If you don't like being called out when you are wrong, then you shouldn't discuss musical issues with people who have actually studied music, it's plain and simple. I wouldn't go discuss heart surgery with a physician.
And sure, if an artists wants to sacrifice healthy technique in order to achieve a more rough/less beautiful sound, it's their choice. But everything with time accumulates. The voice can handle abuse and one can sing on talent alone till age 25, after that the voice begins declining really fast if one hasn't taken care of it.
Singing on talent or "style" is like living on capital, sooner or later it will be all used up. Singing on technique is like living on the interest, if you take care of the capital it will only grow.
I don't mind being called out when I'm wrong, so that wouldn't be an issue. I don't see how I'm wrong though.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I think it would vary from case to case, but I admit that I have only some rudimentary knowledge on the subject.
ReplyDeleteYou are wrong because you seemed to assume I was attacking Mariah, when actually I'm a huge fan, have all her albums and I consider her one of my top vocal influences.
ReplyDeleteAnd you are also wrong because you seemed to claim that she doesn't need voice lessons, when actually even the greatest of opera singers keep taking voice lessons and doing their vocal and breathing exercises throughout their lives.
The other stuff about if Mariah was trying to sound like Whitney or not, I can't confirm, I was only speaking about what I was told by someone else who has worked with Mariah, that's all, I haven't personally met her.
I never postulated that you were attacking Mariah though.
ReplyDeleteAnd I never said she didn't need them. I just didn't understand why she would be made to take them, and found that part rather questionable. Given her mother's profession, one would assume she could learn the basics from her mother.
Hmmm. At times I feel like I enjoy the raspy, rough singing. But it definitely doesn't sound healthy. I also think her voice is there, but what you mentioned below about consistency is the key topic here, she's been rough a lot lately so maybe this was a "good" day for her. I think what's keeping people still aboard is her tone, which is still pretty gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteIt's Mariah. Who doesn't?
ReplyDeleteI also think that accent has a lot to do with one's sound. Many italian non-opera singers also suffer from nasality, Tiziano Ferro is a great example, although he's kinda fixed it lately.
ReplyDeleteYeah that makes sense. Her voice is very bright and pure while singing on broadway.
ReplyDeleteWE ALL KNOW BETTER THAN DOUBTING THE QUEEN OF CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe did learn basics, but taking voice lessons when little doesn't set you up for life. Again, for the 5th time, every singer needs an extra pair of trained ears to keep the voice in check and even the greatest of opera singers keep taking voice lessons throughout their careers till they retire, and they keep up their vocal and breathing exercises till they die.
ReplyDeleteI am actually pleasantly surprised. Only because I expected her to sound much worse. :p
ReplyDeleteAnd am I the only one who hears her sounding flat on more than a couple of occasions here? Too much by 'Mariah Carey' standards. The whistles sound pre-recorded too.
Also, these videos re-affirm my belief that Mariah's falsetto and head voice is one of the most generic sounding in pop music (there by to me, the weakest part of her otherwise amazing vocal repertoire).
what grammy nomination?
ReplyDeleteMariah needs to stop drinking, start exercising and take vocal lessons...
ReplyDeleteHey, he was 95 years old, that's quite an age. He died peacefully and he's in a better place now, that's all that matters :)
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't cry for him but rather celebrate his amazing deeds :)
French from France is not nasal at all compared to Canadian french and American English. Latin languages are not generally considered as nasal: the pronunciation of the letter "r", for instance, makes the sound almost "from the throat" when speaking frenc, the placement of the sound is lower-located: it comes more from the chest and the throat. Overall, french voices are "throaty" (I'm not talking about every french singer). Canadian french is different because of the accent which makes the pronunciation more nasal.
ReplyDeleteBut of course, it depends of the person: you will surely find some french singers with a nasal diction, especially the high-pitched ones.
But I don't think the language is the cause of the nasality
Have you heard Dessay recently? After the surgery she lost the notes above Eb6 but the notes above C6 required more effort than before, and now her voice is pretty wrecked. She quit opera and is singing jazz now.
ReplyDeleteEros Ramazzotti is immensely nasal as well.
ReplyDeleteJust saw Mariah perform All I want for christmas is you at the National tree lighting. The belts sounded rough and she cracked on the head voice notes at the climax of the song. So depressing. She needs rest or those nodes removed because there is still a voice there.
ReplyDeleteWhen I heard her voice crack my jaw DROPPED. She sounded relatively okay up until the climax and then everything from there on went downhill. That head run was so bad. :(
ReplyDelete"All I want for Christmassssss isss Youuuueurgh-Crack*-eurghuuuuuu"
Not only that but she also did it again! XD
As much as I LOVED these performances OMG did anyone watch her National Tree performance?! It's like watching a horror movie for the gays.
ReplyDeleteShe's been sounding stuffy ever since her nosejob. Before that it wasn't so obvious.
ReplyDeleteI thought the beginning was pretty good. Her lower range sounds pretty good to me. When I saw that she didn't go for the initial high belt in the beginning of the song I got worried. I thought maybe she was going to downplay the vocals a bit but no. When she got to the climax the belts sounded strained and the head voice notes cracked. I almost wanted to exit out of the live stream I was watching.
ReplyDeleteI always get really nervous when I see her perform nowadays. What the hell happened between this and the Fallon improv?
I don't think anything happened. That's just what I meant with using the improv as a cop out...you call it an improv and you can simply start talking when you feel you're not going to be able to sing the note.
ReplyDeleteIt's smart and it's okay to use it like that when you don't have a choice but it does create, in some, unrealistic expectations.
The beginning sounded overall good albeit a bit shaky. I got worried when she avoided the high belt in the beginning of the song. I thought maybe she was toning down the vocals for the song but she didn't. When she reached the climax she strained a lot of the belts and the final head tones cracked. What happened? What happened between this and the Fallon improv vocals? Was her breathing also bad?
ReplyDeleteI get nervous when I know she's going to perform.
Her voice is just so delicate nowadays. Depressing really. You're right about the improv thing but she sounded better there then today. Her head voice was much better at fallon.
ReplyDeleteI honestly think that she was running late or something, and was rushed on stage. You could see her hurrying to get to her place and she was completely out of breath after singing. though I wont deny that its still not much of an excuse. She also probably didnt get to warmup for whatever reason. But Im hoping that shell get it together before she hits serious promotion for her new album.
ReplyDeleteI noticed her breathing issues. That wouldn't surprise me if she was completely rushed. Plus it was cold out and her voice is just naturally delicate. I sincerely hope she gets her act together for her new album.
ReplyDeleteLady Gaga can hit that note effortlessly. Mariah lipped that song. Gaga always sings live.
ReplyDeletewhich note?
ReplyDeleteBORING to death...
ReplyDeleteRebember when Josh Stone and Leona were media's "New Mariah Carey"? Poor Leona! Watch out, Ariana Grande, you're next! Not even a Grammy nomination for New best artist? The new Mariah Carey project is starting to fail.
