Mariah Carey - Hero (Through the Years)

It's taken YEARS, but here it finally is! Thank you for 100 subscribers :D
Special thanks to TDOMC and CreativeMCTube, a lot of us and this wouldn't be here without your takes on this edit! Also, to everyone who's screencapped, remastered, and filmed each piece of footage, and most of all to Mariah herself.

[@kwaziness]

Thank you for 100 subs!!

4:46 transition was SO genius!

[@aljohnlaid8203]

This is 30 years of her voice, but if you listen to it you don’t really notice the “change” even if the clips transition to 20 years ago to 10 years forward then to the recent years and back and forth, etc. Not to mention the many reinventions that she has done to this song that only her can do. Her vocal agility is unparalleled.

[@alrightyalan3939]

THIS IS LITERALLY WHAT I’VE WANTED A TIME TRAVEL TO LOOK LIKE!!!

[@AchillesandArtemis]

Kwaziness don’t play with Mariah vocals 😂

[@kael6723]

Mastery of editing. The transition from 2013riah to DaydreamRiah was seamless. 4:46-4:50

[@alrightyalan3939]

i love how this is also not biased to one era. you literally included EVERY SINGLE ERA!!!!!!!!! a TRUE time travel!

[@kwaziness]

I TRIED MY BEST i think i missed 95, 97, 04, 05, and 08 (and technically 02 - she sang one line in a competition group performance, 07 - e have like 3 seconds of a performance, and 2011 - didn't sing it)

[@alrightyalan3939]

its okie tho, it’s really inclusive and that’s what matters!

[@kwaziness]

@@mariahcareyunited LMFAO

[@mohamedhaikal829]

@@alrightyalan3939 unlike people who put 85% of it mostly 1993-1996 eras because post prime isnt worth mentioning

[@dolphinriah6590]

its like all the eras are doing a group project it’s emotional 😮‍💨

[@DaydreamCarey1234]

[@butterflyera4628]

3:53 TEAR THEM AWAAY

[@kwaziness]

i was debating on putting london 96 for the "AWAYY" but i still feel like the repeated note does kinda sound more epic in paris than the vocal break (WHICH I STILL LOVE)

[@rosemont2283]

3:39 - 3:46 wonderful job

[@mariahcareyunited]

4:37 PURRR I loved that note change from 2022riah

[@bakica_vangica]

this is really good editing, you've gotta be a real lamb to be able to know which performance to insert according to the melody and arrangement changes.
