In this video I watch Mariah and Michael sing. They do it quite well. I talk about what they are doing that I think is successful. I hope this observation on how they sing helps you figure out how the voice works better, so you can learn how to make smart choices in your own voice.

Mariah was on fire in this performance. She will always remain one of the best, her vocal creativy and musicality is just out of this world.
I agree
Period!
...that last run 🥰🥰
In 2012-2013, she was incredibly agile and fluid. And let's not forget that jaw-dropping surprise performance on the Jimmy Fallon show - she totally went crazy, leaving everyone in awe!
Yes ❤
That surprise performance lives rent free in my head at all times.
Which one was that? I want to see :)

2013 was such good year for her vocally
SPILLLL underrated year
I think in terms of speed and vocal agility when it comes to head voice, Mariah it’s literally a robot beast! She sounds almost auto tuned because that kinda robotic fast sound, it’s almost weird how FAST she is. I love it ❤
True! I believe the whistle & sometimes the chest voice (back in the 90s) as well. She's highly versatile with seamless transition, sometimes while performing melismata at the same time.
Whitney Houston always reminds me of those powerful belted runs while Céline Dion is highly agile in both belts & head.
Love this analysis - I think what we've learned with Mariah over the years is that nerves really get to her, so when she's uncomfortable on the stage/occasion, or nervous, or maybe not as well rehearsed as she'd like, that's when her performance slips a little bit, but when she's prepped and ready and comfortable, she can still sing miles above most other performers alive. I think Michael understands how, even though he's recorded a version of it, *she's* the one people want to hear singing this song and so he chose to play a supporting role and let her be the protagonist. I like his voice and I like his Christmas songs, but there's just no reality in which (most) people would prefer a cover of All I Want over the original, and he totally knows that.
I love how he’s not afraid to fairly critique the literal vocal Bible that is Mariah Carey
The vocal bible is Brandy. Mariah is the Songbird Supreme.
@@whitneyhouston1122Brandy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@whitneyhouston1122never thought the vocal bible was brandy. Wonder how she got that name
@@whitneyhouston1122 what? brandy is a vocal bible? hahahahahah
Love Mariah’s musicality
I appreciate Michael Bublé’s stylistic staccato to contrast Mariah Carey‘s agility/voice acrobatics -they complemented each other very well. Two talented professionals, knowing their strengths and complementing each other. No egos here!
Excuse, my miss use, of the terminology; my technical knowledge is limited to elementary school music class and these videos.
In the bridge, I think she flipped to falsetto in the "please" was just a form of expression. Like "please!, bring my baby to me". A beautiful way of bringing that begging and girly quality.
omg that is such an interesting way of interpretation! im stealing that! 😍😭
Mariah has sang so many different Christmas songs live people have no idea
The greatest vocalist of all time Mariah Carey
She sideyed the band several times lol they started too early and same for the end she must've been pissed, her ending was so cleverly improvised.
If you catch it in the ending she switches when she hears the musician change direction. Her ear is perfection.
Mariah's musicality is indeed to die for. Love your honest reaction as well❤
I like that Mariah did the backgrounds for the first half of the bridge because we never get to see that live but in the duet she got to do stuff she would otherwise not do live!
Underneath The Tree by Kelly Clarkson is definitely getting there in terms of being a modern classic. For me anyway ❤
I was going to say this as well! Its a good one!
It really is starting to become more popular AND so as Rockin Around The Christmas Tree.
Mariah always my #1 but I agree, underneath the tree is deserving. Way more than Santa tell me. The latter sounds more like an anytime pop song than a holiday song
Even though I cant sing and I dont understand much of the things you´re talking about, I just love that you still explain vocal theory and practises, different to many vocal teacher channels on youtube, who changed to only reaction content
She was in a fantastic vocal shape in 2013! The agility was insane. I actually believe if she went slower on the constant singing during the past decade she could’ve stayed in this shape til today
Their voices are so contrasting, it makes this a really interesting collaboration. Her voice is so big and dynamic, and Michael's is so soft and almost robotically consistent sounding. I can't quite describe it lol
Mariah Carey and Michael Buble Christmas songs are always the best. I feel like I received the best gift by being able to listen to their songs on Christmas Eve.
Today I'd like to introduce you to the Korean crossover male quartet “Libelante“. They are a group that formed through the Korean singing program Phantom Singer 4 last June, and consist of a musical theatre actor (Kim Ji-hoon), a tenor (Jin Won), another tenor (Jeong Seung-won), and a baritone (Noh Hyun-woo). They became popular not only because of their spectacular songs, but also because their average age at the time of debut was 25.7 years, making them the youngest among Korean crossover groups. Besides the musical theatre actor Kim Ji-hoon, the remaining three are still college students.
Since their debut, they have covered songs from various genres including pop, Korean idol group, Italian canzone, etc. through more than 20 concerts, various broadcasts, and self-produced programs. Finally, on the 12th of this month, they released their mini album La Liberta.
Today, I wanted to ask you to react to two of their songs: their cover of “Fria Como El Viento “by Luis Miguel and their original release “On Your Way”. The styles of the two songs are slightly different. This is because Libelante aims to popularize crossover music in Korea, where the crossover genre is not yet popular. So, their song “On Your Way” is of a genre that is more familiar to the general public. I want to know how you feel about this rookie’s songs.
If you decide to upload Libelante's reaction clip, I would like to share it with the Libelante fan community in Korea so that more than 10,000 of their fans can see it.
Sam, I hope you have a happy Christmas.
With love from Korea, Bia
On Your way

p.s. I'm adding this just in case. If you plan to react to Libelante's song video, please blur their video and react to it. Recently, there have been a few cases in Korea where videos were taken down due to copyright issues.
She has given a lot of her voice over the years since she first appeared in the music world. Like, it's crazy to think how she explored all the possibilities of her voice, in so many different ways, even with the problems of nodules, aging... she was reinventing herself. A true vocalist. All applause for the QUEEN
Love that she is caring for her voice, and fetting the help she needs. She will akways ve a legendary vocalist!
Her 2020 apple special version I believe is even better than the original
One of the greatest vocalists ever❤
two christmas icons! there's no holiday season without these two.
I do really like Tory Kelly's 25th, really catchy and soulful. Fairytale of New York I often hear people have as a favorite if that one counts. Oh Santa! by Mariah Carey is great also, especially in the version with Ari and J Hud. We also gave Taylor Swift - Christmas Tree Farm. One that I for sure think counts as a christmas song is Roxette's It Must’ve Been Love, it was a christmas song in it's original version before it was in Pretty Woman and in the original version, Marie Fredriksson sang "And it's a hard Christmas day" instead of "And it's a hard winter's day" that it was changed to for the movie. This one is lesser known, but musical theatre artist Linda Eder has an absolutely beautiful song called The Bells of St.Paul that just has amazing storytelling - one of my favorites for sure and I wish it was more known.
I have been waiting for you to react to this!!!!😊
This is a lovely live version. Thanks for reacting.
check out "Mariah Carey - Joy to the World (Live at St. John the Divine)" !!!
The Queen legend with one of my fav Male singers ever👑❤️
Amazing performance and great reaction
Listen to underneath the stars by mariah carey in tokyo dome
Please react to Mariah Carey- Joy to the World- at St. John the Divine.
I am a massive Mariah fan and I adore this song and will never tire of it.
A modern Christmas song you should listen to though is Underneath The Tree by Kelly Clarkson. It's seriously amazing and whilst nothing will ever top All I Want, Kelly's song is pretty close!
Merry Christmas, Sam Johnson, a Voice Teacher.
thank u for doing my request sam ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 merry xmas and thanks😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
When i watch your videos i try to analyze the parts myself before you analyze to see if i'm hearing the same sounds and vocal choices as you, and that has trained my ears a lot!
Ooo! What are the main things that you anticipate me saying?
@@SamJohnsonVoice the main things are the production of the sounds and how they approach belts, also singers like Mariah Carey that have such similar tone in chest voice and falsetto i try to listen for when they seamlessly disconnect registers!
The Queen legend with one of my fav Male singers ever👑❤️
Amazing performance
Love this song, love Michael Buble’
Carey sounds so comfortable and crushing her runs
Not 100% confident I love these two voices together
But who am I to say 😂
I definitely agree. Their voices together just don't quite gel for me.
Can you please react to Mariah Carey, Jennifer Hudson, and Ariana Grande perform “Oh Santa” at Madison Square Garden! It was such a good performance and the first time they’ve all performed the song! Great video, I’ve been subbed for years!
Going slightly off beat is a deliberate musical style used frequently by soul singers. Patti LaBelle and Aretha Franklin do it all the time. It feels like ad libbing a song.
"how good the original version is" YESSSSS! 😂 same!
Some honourable mentions for Holiday songs with the potential to become classics:
Leona Lewis - One More Sleep
Kelly Clarkson - Underneath The Tree
My only wish this year by Britney Spears! She does a live version of Silent Night. I’d love for you to analyze her voice. It’s nowhere near the levels of Mariah, but I love it all the same for her emotive qualities.
Great video and super interesting..
Want to hear you review “Oh Santa” , the version with Mariah, Ariana and Jennifer Hudson.. wish this one had’ve hit the charts big ❤
Kelly clarkson underneath the Christmas tree and Ariana Grande Santa Tell Me are definitely the ones that have landed in recent years.
I really enjoyed the Ava Max one, Christmas Without You.
Here in Britain we do Christmastime (Don’t let the bells end) by the Darkness which is trying to bring back the glam
Christmases of Slade and Wizzard
My choir sings a rendition of Christmas in LA by Vulfpeck which is all the fun and really goes hard on that Jackson 5 Christmas vibe
Should you enjoy harmonies and want something generally wintery then my choir also does Winter Trees by The Staves, which is gorgeous (at least the original is)
Edit: ooh, Inalso hear 8 days of Christmas by Destiny’s Child a lot but it’s only in the last few years. Like, it took 20 years for it to stick for some reason
Edit edit: oh, and, of course, weebs be listening to Holy Night from ToraDora
Hi! You should react to Gabriel Henrique. He’s a self-taught singer from Brazil. Amaaazing voice, one of the best male singers I have ever seen. Check him out if you want to be surprised. ‘Something Beautiful’ is his last release on CZcams and its breathtaking
Please react on her recent concert “Merry Christmas One and All” she performed really well ❤️
And this was in 2013😌way out of her vocal PRIME♥️
A vocal analysis/reaction of Mariah's Merry Christmas album, please! 🫶🏻
You should do Fairytale of New York. It is hands down the most popular christmas song and even more impressive, Shane MacGowan who passed away either this month or last, wrote it, recorded it and performs it absolutely drunk. Man manages to sing like a drunken angel 😂
Even better than Santa Tell Me are Kelly Clarkson's Underneath the Christmas Tree and Mariah's own Oh Santa and Christmas Time Is In The Air Again. Kelly and Mariah are the only modern pop artists who can pull off a timeless, classic holiday sound and stretch it over an entire album.
please react to miss you most at christmas time MARIAH SOUNDS AMAZING ON IT LIKE OUT OF THIS WORLD❤
Awesome react! Would love your reaction/vocal analysis to Sleep Token's vocals on Rain, Fall For Me or Ascensionism. Thanks.
You should react to her american idol performance 2013 , Or the most recent that i love and really good is Mariah Carey My All from singapore 2018❤
Loved this Sam 😄. What about oh Santa Mariah?
Nothing beats Mariah's Christmas song. It's just so good! But in terms of new songs I like Kelly's and Ariana's "Santa can't your hear me" & Little Mix's "One I've Been Missing"
and also "Oh Santa" by Mariah, Jhud and Ariana ❤
The riff and runs at the ending was so amazing
The Legendary MC ❤
Please watch Vision of Love, live with Regis and Kathy Lee... Her low notes are amazing,
Please react and analyze her live performance in Bet Blueprint 2005 singing vision of love❤
hi sam, if you have doubts of she sounding a bit mixed you should react to her singing with jimmy fallon. was acapella
queen
Faith Hill - Where are you Christmas- which was written by Mariah.
Hi Sam, this is your doppelganger. You need to adjust the focus on your camera. It might just be me, but it seems the last couple of videos you've put out all have the focus set on the wall behind you.
Thank you for all the great content, marry christmas.
I really like thank god its christmas by Queen, War is over by John Lennon and Power of love by Frankie goes to hollywood (not really Xmas themed but it was on the christmas CD haha)
Oh yeah and Driving home for Christmas by Chris Rea
I really enjoy cee lo greens christmas album. I love his voice for those songs
You give the highest level overviews of these performances. I love when people actually KNOW what is happening physically with the voice also. Youre superb!
How about Last Christmas or George Michael vocal reaction?
My favourite is Last Christmas by Wham
Can you react to Christina Aguilera and Brian Mcknight singing Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas? Or Christina Aguilera's version of The Christmas Song?
A Queen that knows music isn’t going hold back 😉
You should listen to Fall in love at Christmas by MC!!
No youre right abt the beginning being off. The band started going to fast at 0:30 and then michael had to rush through his part to get back in time.
Edit: you should react to her recent performance of all i want for christmas at the billboard music awards. She sounds great with her recent voice.
I know it’s been a long time since you’ve reviewed vocalists, but can I request for a video for Cynthia Erivo’s tribute performance “Alfie” ? Thank you and I hope you see this!
Please react to Christina Aguilera and Brian McKnight have yourself a merry little Christmas live performance.
Sounding like a stiff robot man is Buble's entire schtick. He just sounds like that all the time.
❤❤❤
Mariah gotta lot of outstanding Xmas song other than AIWFCIY. Can you react to it? She perform "One Child" live at White House. Or maybe Live performance of "Chistmas time Is In The Air Again"
Underneath the Tree by Kelly Clarkson and Santa Can’t You Hear Me by Kelly and Ariana Grande.
oh santa by mariah, jhud ND ARI
Helping the Algorithm! 😂
Mariah and jonh legend react please ^
You should react to Santa Claus is coming to the town live with Ariana and Michael Buble !!
Mariah the best ❤
This video is about 10 years old so I’m curious is Mariah capable of this now
Brooo! Why are u always getting on Mariah's case. Like I saw another comment of u talking abt how Mariah can't do that and yada yada yada. Like leave her alone.
She doesn't have to prove herself to anyone. Her presence is enough!
@@whitneyhouston1122You should ask yourself why you’ve reacted so emotionally to a simple question on her vocal health?
@@popland1977 You should ask itself why am I always picking on Mariah.
Any Kelly Clarkson xmas standards ❤
Please react to Lara Fabian - Je Suis Malade!!!
hello can you react babymonter cover of christmas without you? thank you
Love your reaction and analysis! ONE OK ROCK, Japanese band, has a phenomenal vocalist, Taka, he covered *HELLO and Easy On Me - Adelle, he can sing it in original key* check them out!!
I guarantee you'll be surprised by his unique voice!!
Also check their original *Take What You Want - LIVE Tokyo Dome 2018!* their LIVE performances are always top tier. I'd really appreciate it! Thank you, and you'll thank me later
Damn
Sam, Last Christmas by Wham?
Celine won’t be able to sing on stage anymore. We still have mariah, plz protect her at all cost
shes 52!!!
Also, have you seen Billie Eilish's performance of Have yourself a merry little Christmas on SNL? I remember you saying how you wished she'd do different things with her voice and play with sounding less breathy etc and I thought she shounded really good in this! I'm not familiar with her music outside of the really popular ones but it seemed to me like she did something a little different with this song.
Is she not miming?
Mariah slaaayed Buble did nothing
Sohyang did this song justice she sang it recently and it was AMAZING. I love the one and only queen Mariah thanks for your reaction
i do not think he is up for it.....she has back up singers who are much much better.
I’ve never been a fan of Michael I’m sorry. Nothing special about his voice
Its live pitch corrected ..no comment on that ?
Well, sure. But pitch correction can't do those clean runs and it might help the high notes an pitch but there were some moments that were a little pitchy and if it wasn't pitched then why didn't some notes sounded a little pushed and tensed and throaty. Pitch correction usually takes less tension off of the note.
almost every artist does that.. like huh
I'm kinda sus about the live aspect of her singing. It's well-known that she lip syncs often
