Madonna is a real legend. Nobody will ever come close. I saw Madonna in concert 4 times and she blew me away each time. This is exactly why she lasted for three decades. She does not have a strong voice like Mariah Carey but she definatly has more star quality and is a real entertainer. MADONNA RULES!!!
She's so gooooood... Bless her... I love her performances especially how she did "my saving grace"... It's live... You could hear the mic feeding back... She's just amazing... Aaaaargh!!!
Considering this is a NBA crowd, and she didn't get boo'd like most other performance, I think that says ALOT lol. She even got a positve response, which also says alot lol In general, most performers get boo'd by NBA crowds, let alone get a positive response. Mariah's voice sounded to be in really good shape here.
mariah is the best singer ever! she has been singing her brains out for over 20 years...obviously her voice is gonna change a bit but even on her worst days she is better then most.
it's totally live and make Michael Jordan Crying....... i always listening every day this song compilation Hero........ Yes. if we listening sentences "THEN A HERO COMES ALONG" like Voice whitney
maybe you are right.she changed but it is life and everbody changes.she is greatest voice ever.but l agree with you sometimes she can't sing like she used to.but this one is good performance.l love you mariah...
At 7:34-8:00 she sounded just like she use to when she was younger with the curly hair when she use to sing that song hero. That was scary lol. My favorite was when she sung my saving grace, remarkable.
I agree with you. not too mention its always obvious when she lipped cos she always hold the mic so close to her mouth.. technically when you hit a big note you do the opposite. (see mariah circa 1990-98).
Y cant people accept tht she is sining live clearly she was in a good vocal condition 2day just coz she sounds like the CD dosent mean its lypsinc a lot people sound like the CD version and r still live thts just how amazing she is and her voice is, so wots the point in watching her vids if u hate her just get a life
benj0924: I'm also a singer and I don't think this is lipped at all. Either she is phenomenal at lip-syncing or the entire thing is live or the entire thing is lipped. It is extremely hard to just grab the right note out of thin air and most professionals cannot do that. She would be forced to do that if she were stopping in the middle of a phrase and it would be harder to lip that way than to just sing the song.
@RebelXSi no its all 100% her she's never lipped hero y cant u just accept she can still sing ur all just jealous if ur only gunna watch her vids just to criticize then wots the point
this is the example that it's partly lipped...listen to 7:33-7:49. the line..."in time" is live then she lipped the "you'll find the way" till " and then the hero comes along" and " with the strength to carry on" is back to live... take a closer attention how her voice changed in the lines i mentioned. I know her style. cause i am also a singer and i know if a singer sings live or not...in adiiton to that, i am her big fan, so i know her voice. i have her cd's. i love mariah no matter what!
ella es super alta, y con tacon debe serlo aun mas xD aun asi michael jordan es capaz de hacerla lucir pequeña! xD debe ser un gigante en persona GO FOR MIMI!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No this one is live. look at her neck. Yo can tell she's singing live. This was to beautiful. She was the Diva paying respect to the King of Sport. Its like a Royal Event. SO Beautiful. Michael Jordan is the friggin King.
the instrumental at the endd where mariah is introuducing micheal jordan is what brandy used in her intro for her human tour , does any one know where is it is from??
yea, but sadly in 2006 her sound was chippy when she wasnt hitting the high notes. trust me. been to one of her tours. shes been on the smokes too much or something. i just wish she could go back to this
whatz with her hand she is always moving it ! ha ha makes me laugh when she sings hero if i was there i would call a ambulance cause shes hasing a fukin panic attack lol !
hello...the way Mariah do her performance is by playing the recorded version in a low volume n then she sings it....LIVE...tell me..how the hell do u expect her to sing exactly the same way she sings at the studio when there r voice overlaps n all that?? TELL ME!!!
Cut Mimi slack...if you had an amazing voice/range like she did, your voice had to wear out sometime or the other. Even if she had the best treatments or voice lessons to maintain that voice, it still would've worn out. She can still touch anyone 17 years later, and that's all that counts: passion.
i dont care wat yall say... she can sing yeh but they best ever no. ever is a long time and she dont sing better than everyone who is out. and if she does where da hell she at?
we always compare mariah to regine!! regine is the asias songbird while mariah is the world songbird!! regine knows that mariah is far far better to her!! mariah is the multipurposed singer and the doctor of music!! no one can impersonate mariah's vocal quality!! regine had so many impersonators of her voice!!! mariah was multiawarded!! mariah is the inspiration of regine!!!
Mariah was every bit FLAWLESS in these performances...what are yous talking about loosing her voice, have you got ears of arses on the side of your heads!? And damn she looked HOT haha no wonder Michael Jordan was checking her out as she left!
omg, when she makes a mistake all these ppl laugh their head off and point at the tiny human mistakes, and then when she is perfect, you think she's LIPPING. poor mariah, just because her talent is beyond normal human comprehension doesn't mean its impossible.
Anyone else notice the players laughing when she sang Hero? About every other line was lipped. She alternated from live to prerecorded to live to prerecorded and I think seeing that up close was funny to them Sidebar: still a fan but it’s hard not to notice
okay. why the fuck yall still talkin bout the shit. i den forgot all bout this video. point blank they said mariah is the best singer of all time. and i said that definatley aint the case. damn case closed.
Yo, there are some sick vocals on this performance, but half of 'Hero' falls flat. Though, I still can't believe that was only two years before 'The Emancipation.' Meaning, that her voice should still be booming, but it's not = (.
popovers1000 will you plz watch mariah cary's best bits!!! regine can beat hat song!!! pang mabagalan lang namn c regine!!!! ska di lumilipad ang ibon na ostrich!! haba ng leeg!!
I don't know. She use to be so good. Her voice was amazing for the first 4 albums. Things went downhill from there. Her voice is not as strong as it used to be. Her image was a lot nicer. Now she's too made up. She just looked so sweet before with a powerful voice. It's not the same Mariah and you can't deny that. SHE CHANGED.
i can say that this is partly lipped...you can easily see the difference when she does singing live and not. when she does falsetto with a raspy voice she can't hold it longer but if she does in this condition of voice then it's not live...remember she never sings her song the way she recorded it....so it there's no difference then it's not live, pre recorded maybe. but the good thing about her, she brings out the best whether live or not.
Yeah shes won more awards cos shes been around longer. I doubt she has much input into her albums, she probably just sits there deep throating a bottle like she usually does or maybe working out how she can adopt another child for the sake of publicity in time for her new album.
Your comparing those ediots (Hilary Duff and Lindsay)Lohan to Madonna. If Madonna did not have talent and sang like shit, she would have not lasted this long. You will not hear of Linsay and Hilary Duff in 25 years. Madonna is a legend, A true performer. History proved her long lasting talent. You should see one of her shows. I promise you will be amazed.
i didnt say i could sing. and i dont think shes the best of all time. so be mad all you want to. its america i fuckin right to an opinion and i also have a right to post w/e the hell i want. so in MY OPINION SHE AINT THE BEST EVER. FUCKIN sue me!
the MC fans wanna c a real voice, a real artist, if i wanna c entertient prefer see a clown them Madonna, madonna is alla about coreography, ligths, and show witouh all of that its nothing
mariah is a cheater cause in this performance u can hear 2 voices singing, mariah AND MARY ANN TATUM a backgroung singer especially in hero at "you'll find the way"
Yeah but she doesnt write her own music, her voice isnt as powerfull as Mariah's. Plus Madonna has been singing longer, so wait another 5years or So and Mariah would have sold more.
