I never got how some could say Lionel and Diana's version was better, neither of them can sing. I think those who say that are just nostalgic. Clearly Luther and Mariah took an almost unlistenable song and made it good with their great voices.





Mariah was overdoing it with her vocal gymnastics. It's rare I say that she oversings, but she did on this song. Holding those notes on the word 'care' were just unnecessary. Nostalgic or not, the original version sounded more natural without trying too hard.


I can't tell you how many people were asking me(because I was a fan), why was Mariah shouting on those parts. I couldn't even answer the question because I agreed with them. laugh.gif




Diana couldn't hit or hold those notes even if she had nuts to grab.

I disagree with the word 'oversing'. Oversing gets thrown around all the time by people who can't sing.




Well I'll just agree to disagree with all of you. I still don't think they should have touched that song and their version is very forgettable compared to the original one.
