On whether Mariah sings whistles live, she definitely has. Almost all of her whistles 1990-1996 were live. Afterwards she starting lipping then because as you mentioned they are inconsistent. Although I would argue that in many cases her belting range is as inconsistent on her tours. 1998-present she lips difficult whistles like in Emotions, but still likes to occasionally throw in live whistles. This performance in particular was weird because it was hard to tell what was lipped, live, or dubbed. Certainly they edited some things after it was recorded. Perhaps some other lambs want to add their input regarding this performance. Love your videos btw
From what I can tell with anything post-prime or after the 90s, Mariah definitely sings whistles live MOST of the time, it’s just because they can be inconsistent that during televised performances like this one she will lip the whistles (and sometimes high belts) or sing them live but dub the performance afterwards because it has to sound as professional as possible for tv.
1998 Emotions whistles were live except one. Charmbracelet and Emancipation tours had tons of live whistles. She actually continues to this day to do more live whistles than belts - she has several in her 2022 Xmas shows
I think after 98 is when she starts to lip harder vocals overall, not just whistles, but Charmbracelet and The Adventures of Mimi were the tours she was whistling the most, most of them live, she really delivered. I would even say she started to whistle more during these tours to compensate for the lack of consistence of her belting range (in comparison to before).
Not dubbed. Lipsynced - usually just bits and pieces, but there were a few full on performances. What's not fair is to call an entire performance lipsynced or even dubbed when only a couple small sections were and the rest were live. It doesn't acknowledge all the live parts and work she did. Mariah was the last diva left standing when everything switched from analog to digital. Media shot through the roof. Instead of 50 channels there were thousands. Instead of 30 magazines there were hundreds. Social media started happening. The amount of interviews and live performances that had to be done to keep the same amount of eyeballs was crazy. That meant more work and less vocal rest. That problem only continued as the new millennium rolled on.
Great video ! Could you react to Mariahs tribute to Patti (if only you knew / somewhere over the rainbow ) would love to get your analysis on that performance!
Wooow i really love your technical reactions, is worth to watch an analysis in that level when we are talking about Mariah ❤️ please do more. I would also love if you make the same about Celine Dion and Whitney Houston 🫶🏻
I adore Mariah, been a loyal fan since the beginning. But I gotta say, I never cared for this song... massive snooze fest for me, personally. Her worst lead single, imo 😕 Loved the more upbeat numbers on Charmbracelet though (You had your chance, Irresistible, Lullaby, You got me)

She does MOST of her whistles live
true, she lip syncs alot of the other parts that arent whistles but whistles are so easy for her tho
Great analysis as always. She does most of her whistles live

She was whistling a LOT (and I mean it) in charmbracelet era so I think some of them could’ve been live, but it’s all speculation.

most of her whistles have been live since 1990-2010. after the 10s she started lipping more of her whistles but she still does them live
Ye
Mariah always works with the best background singers in the industry
THAT IS NOT TRUE WATCH SOUL TRAIN MY SAVING GRACE 2003 OR BUTTERFLY DAVID LETTERMAN

You made the ginger tea properly. There’s no need for a bag. Add some lemon too. Nom! Great video. Thank you.
Omg thank you so much!!! I really wasn't sure
Mariah😍
During this era many of her whistles were live…. It’s just that during charm era sooo many performances were dubbed so its hard to tell😭

Great suggestion! I'll look it up
The quality of the song is really smooth. Can you share your setup?
Love the analysis. Mariah does live whistles all the time anyway. Most specially when her upper belts are not that in a good shape
Like the Mariah videos. You look like young Winona Ryder
Wow, thank you!
morissete fly like a bird so good
Love you❤❤❤
I love you too!!!!
Plz a Corinne Bailey Rae cover
You should look into reviewing Raye
Lara Fabian - Je suis malade (live) - check this out. One f the best live performances ever IMO
Excellent analysis/reaction. Also your humour has me chuckling like the piece of shit that I am. Brava.
HAHA this channel is a safe space for pieces of shit
Did you like the performance?! I’m commenting as I’m watching.

Welcoming Indie back from the writer’s strike

Wooow i really love your technical reactions, is worth to watch an analysis in that level when we are talking about Mariah ❤️ please do more. I would also love if you make the same about Celine Dion and Whitney Houston 🫶🏻
I’ve taken you to the store that she bough that ring from😊 Van Cleef #ShopShortHills❤️❤️❤️❤️ #memories
girl those were live cmon now
This entire performance is ~80% lipped.
@@Fr0zenPeanutoh u were there?
@@carsonstdennis309 No, but I have eyes and ears, and I've also seen a LOT of her performances over the years, so I can easily spot her lip syncing.
@@Fr0zenPeanut its more like 80% live, most of the climax is lipped but thats it
❤❤❤
i'm sorry but your cat outshines you for so many reasons.

So annoying! Reactions should be 80% them, 20% you. Not the opposite. Couldn’t make it past 5 minutes.
Lol you analysis this performance but it's almost lipped😂
