Mariah Carey, Ariana Grande and Jennifer Hudson performing ‘Oh Santa!’ LIVE at Madison Square Garden. December 09, 2023 Merry Christmas One and All Concert
You can tell Ariana was nervous. This is her first time in yearrsss being on stage in front of this many people since her last tour. I’m glad Mariah was able to pull this off. What a treat!
Also nervous cause she is singing with Mariah…. That must be intimidating as hell. Singing to One of the greatest voices and most accomplices vocalist on the planet- her idol!
This was not about the audience, this was Ariana performing live with one of her biggest idols. The media and "commentary of the room" would have led you to believe there was beef between these two, but nothing could be further. Ari loves and admires Mariah and the fact that Mariah picked her to be on a record shows the love is mutual. The fact that Mariah kept looking at her shows they have a great bond. This performance also shows that just like Mariah, Ari respects her idols and doesn't use the opportunity on stage to try to out sing them. She was being cute and reserved. This is such a wholesome full circle moment for two divas to share the stage.
@@faithoffaith people think she can’t sing live. Recording your voice in a private booth and using them for a live performance isn’t the same as singing on a stage in front of thousands. Mariah has a history of having inconsistent vocals when singing live dating all the way back to the late 90’s. She can still sing, she just can’t deliver everything she can do in the studio on stage
Literally!!! I cried! Imagine doing a cover for a great vocalist who is not only that but a living legend and now you get to perform live and harmonize LIVE THOSE WHISTLES? Ugh I’m so proud of both, and not to mention Jennifer blessing this collab so much with her amazing touch of soul sounds and great vocals ugh, this Collab literally was made to be appreciated in every single way!
The way Ariana reveres Mariah reminds me of how Mariah revered Aretha. She’s so giddy and doesn’t wanna come across as taking the spotlight she just wants to bask in the moment. She deserves so much success and happiness! They all do!
I believe the similarity between Mariah and Ariana is that they both have the same whispery tones. Remember when everybody used to think that back when Ariana sang in 2013?
Not gonna lie it makes me a little emotional knowing Ariana and Mariah can sing together after all the media tried to do against them together 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@@THEE.apples I disagree wholeheartedly. As well as they sing I will never put them ahead of Mariah nor Whitney and I was not a Whitney fan. You be for real. Jhud definitely has soul but she is not on their level at all, nor above their level.
Only Mariah could have that many missed cues, note changes, melody shifts, adlibs, and extra harmonies with her singing partners and still be labeled as a lipsyncer. Unreal. They all did amazing and tbh if you zoom in on Mariah’s face you can see the mic is on and there’s just a backing track. Like literally every singer when on stage.
Pretty sure most of it was lipped except random parts but Jhud and Ari definitely sang live. Nothing wrong with queen lipping. She's already proved to us what she can do. No one can top Mariah at her prime. Everybody even haters know it
@@hearsay516I think is the other way around. That or Mariah rehearses her lipping very very well. Also Mariah's mic was equalized a different way for this tour.
Okay but the way their just standing there and Ariana is bouncing like the happiest girl in the world performing with them like let’s get a quick two step or sum 😂 it’s crazy we got this thank you so much Mariah and Jesus
These are people with very busy schedules. We are just thankful to Mariah to have them on to perform this song live since the first recording and the show. They did well to just sing and not do any two steps. They are not a girls group, they are each icons. Can we just love and respect what we got?
@@pe.... Um his voice is ok. Very whiney, but his whistles are impressive but he’s missing everything else tbh. Runs are botched, projection is ok, resonance is lacking, and no emotive quality either
@@sokimly1124Stop makin it a competition, Mariah is 54 and can still sing and do whistle notes and Gabriel Henrique is 27. Mariah is still better than him when you consider age difference
Oh Santa needs to go to No1 on Billboard Hot 100 - credit to all 3 artists and for Mariah's 20th No 1... please!!!! Love this performance! Love this song! Mariah Queen of Christmas!
I personally think it's 'Christmastime Is In The Air Again' that needs to get to number one. It's an incredibly beautiful song and sounds like it should be admitted into the canon of modern day classics. I won't complain if Mariah, Ariana, and Jennifer score a #1 together, though, for sure. @@AcairoeFourth
Literally Ariana and Mariah are like daughter and mother, Ari looks so nervous yet excited to be performing LIVE WITH A LEGEND!😍😍😍 Jennifer flawless as always, ugh she does not get enough recognition and respect!
@@mickboswell3484you half wit animal don’t come here talking about Mariah’s vocals when she’s been selling out arenas this entire holiday season. Also, oh Santa is not an easy song to sing anyways.
The respect that Ariana has to Mariah she bowed down to the Queen. I just really hope they will come up with a song together as big as When You Believe.
i actually cant believe my girl got on stage after 2 years. she looks so happy and excited like shes jumping and smiling all the time. 🥲 my christmas miracle, thank you mariah ! 🫶🏼
I remember being shocked Mariah and Ariana did this song together. But seeing them live a few years later still performing it is really heart touching. I’m glad they still want to try to collaborate together and make things work. They sound so good together
You can tell that Mariah is just a whole goddess! She’s been the Queen on the block of Hollywood and she’s bringing these newer acts up under her umbrella. I love Mariah so much! Such a Queen in this world! Hugs Mariah! ❤️🙏
Mariah Carey is truly the LIVING LEGEND! 🤩🤩🤩🤩😛 She is so talented and never shy away to share her stage and limelight with other singers. That is such a pure quality and no wonder she was so loved and well respected by so many people around the world. She is the QUEEN!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I really like how Ariana’s respect this legend Mariah Carey! Let’s appreciate how powerful jhud voice! 3 queen in 1 stage!! Those scream from the crowd is fantastic!
Finally!!! A LIVE version! Thank you so much for posting this!! Amazing performance by all!! I love Ariana, but I still can’t get used to the blonde hair on her. Yes, I know it’s for Wicked. Still nice to see all them together. ❤️🥰
I just woke up in the morning few minutes ago and saw this AND I WAS LIKE IS THIS A DREAM ?? thank u very much for this whole performance ARI LITERALLY ATE ATE ATE IT!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
I can’t stop smiling watching the whole performance.. you know mariah didn’t do duet/trio live performance with anybody unless they are really really special to mariah. This is showing that she really down to earth in a way to willingly having these talented ladies to the stage.. you see how respectful jhud and ari there, love love love this for her and these three dinamic ❤❤❤
Mariah is extremely choosy the music she makes and who she works with so it is amazing to see her being good friends with these two on both a personal and professional level ❤
This is what music is about, see Mariah, Jennifer and Ariana. Surely Mariah is a proud big sister because her work has continued to influence talents who are now also becoming legends and the music family tree continues. ❤❤❤❤
This was a sweet present from the two of them for Mariah and all their respective fans. It takes work and commitment to schedule around 3 busy people's lives and individual projects to gather in one place just for a 4 minute appearance. And this was in New York, Mariah's home town, so just makes it even extra special. I'm sure Mariah was greatly appreciative of Jennifer and Ariana, her "2 Christmas angels!" 🥰
Mariah Carey is absolutely Incredible 😮 I Love her since I was young 1990. She had never give up and she has STILL this Incredible voice like a bird's song ❤❤❤❤❤
Im speechless with awe! THIS IS PHENOMENAL AND MONUMENTAL! LEGENDSSSSS ❤❤❤❤ lets make this Oh Santa #1! JHud vocal is so powerful ❤❤❤ even mariah was wow-ing her vocal prowessness and ariana, where have you beem? we've missed you and your voice so much 😢
that was iconic and i see mariah is spending that coin to push the song because that song belongs up at the top with AIWFCIY for real because it is just as AMAZING A+ mazing
3 Amazing persons and singers that I love SO MUCH since their beginnings! :) Loved how Mariah gave us also a changed whistle tone and vocals partially! Also awesome to see how the 3 love each other and how Mariah also appreaciates them giving a WOW to JHUD during the performance and being all smiles and kisses towards both of them. You can really tell they all 3 loved being and singing together which makes the whole performance even more special then it actually is. Happy soon to come Holidays everyone around the world! :)
