I think this is the original intended for the movie. JD leaked it on an Atlanta radio station and people went crazy. In one day of airplay it made the top 5 of that station. I’m thinking Mariah got mad because it was pulled and re-recorded for the Olympics years later.
This ain’t the original. The pitch it lowered. The producers of “precious” felt this wasn’t the song for the movie and went with the song Mary J Blige did. But this song was used for the Winter Olympics that year, it wasn’t years later, it was literally that next month.

That whistle at 03:56 sounds SO beautiful, just like those whales swimming in the ocean in peace with their family. Those whistles are literally psychological therapy.
