Mariah!!! This was terrible! I know 12 year olds that can make better videos that! What is going on?! The Glitter era was better than this by far!

Cheap!!!

I know I sound like a hater but i'm not. Im just worried about Mariah. She is so much better than this. It is just hard to a legend not even scrape of full potential at this point. It would have been better had she just lipped the whole performance! Its just frustrating because this has has happened so many times now with the sound etc

I'm gonna get killed for this, but she seems to be becoming a parody of herself.
Between being absent during most of her song and then the awkward video, posing and bad sound, there aren't many arguments to defend her as a fan.

When I watched her perform Triumphant on TV yesterday, only one thought went through my mind. It wasn't "OMG she's lipping" or "the sound's awful" or "wow this song doesn't translate to a live performance." It was, "Damn. Mariah is completely out of touch." Between the song itself (which, don't get me wrong, I think is a great Rick Ross/Meek Mill song that I listen to all the time), her stage presence (which is way too stiff and stale and the same tired dancers doing the same tired dance routines while she stands in a skin tight dress and lips), and the overall presentation of her material (i.e., her consistently recording songs that are way too high for her ever replicate live in a manner that would WOW an audience - which is what she needs right now to cement any sort of comeback), she's just out of touch. As a tried-and-true fan for the last 18 years, I know not to count Mariah out AT ALL and I have full faith that she could release a song that would SLAY and revamp her image...


All I know is that this song won't do it. She needs to regroup.

Yeah Mariah is completely out of touch. She really needs to bring it next time around... otherwise she might as well kiss her career goodbye. Its not hating, its fact.

i hope Mariah is ok personally. She has a lot on her plate right now and lots of pressure that we cannot even begin to comprehend. A good manager would not have let this happen. I mean this was hardly a "major TV performance" I love Randy. I love that he and Mariah are so close. It says alot about Mariah for having him and several other people on her team around for 20 years or so. Randy is incredibly talented but is he really qualified to be a manager of an artist of Mariah' s magnitude? Maybe he is. Has he worked as a manager for other artists? It just seems like ever since the whole #MCSummer2012 was posted everything went to hell. Also, did Mariah appear a bit out of it maybe tipsy in these other youtube clips we have seen? she just seemed really tired and a bit overwhelmed.

THIS! That's exactly how I feel about her lately and I feel really really bad about myself for feeling this way right now! smiley: embarassed  Am I getting bored at Mariah? I want to hear the voice... not just to see the face! (or body... LOL) *CRIES*

I also feel that way right now. But I believe she will get things together. I honestly think this is just a misstep, rather than a sign of things to come.

It's hard to believe that an artist that started out so confident and exuberant on stage would seemingly regress this much to theatrics with backing vocals, lipping and an otherwise very awkward, stiff and stale stage presence. Even with all her accomplishments, it still seems like she has so many insecurities when she's performing live.

It's a bit sad that great live performances have become the exception rather than the norm, especially for an artist of her caliber.

I love the DIVA'ness..i live for it! smiley: laugh
I love everything even the tacky moments
As long as she just SINGS..I felt Morocco was sort of a step in the right direction
She really needs to SING at this stage of her career to maintain or even REVIVE interest
People truly expect her to be an exceptional singer. If you decide to mime, at least get the sound folks to ensure embarrassing moments are avoided.

I hope in this era...the VOICE gets 70% focus and the other 30% goes into the rest
Its what the world fell in love with in the first place.
Correct me if I'm wrong..

Well, considering 16 million tuned in, I'd hardly call it a "minor" TV performance.......

But Triumphant has barely moved on iTunes smiley: indifferent

Um, Mariah Carey is here with us (and singing) and the David Budway Trio! The Carlyle is boppin!


 No. Way. What did she sing?


 lullaby of Birdland and summertime


 she sounded good. And she looked GREAT!


smiley: eeksmiley: eeksmiley: eeksmiley: eek
Now this I'd like to hear!
As she grows older she can really try to be flexible with her setlists
Do a few covers, show off that versatile voice..
Instead of these half lipped performances

I love Mariah to death but she really does need to regroup. Get intouch with what the public wants from her and mix that into what she loves. She's the biggest selling female artist ever she can afford better stage shows then anyone. She's an amazing singer and if she writes songs she can deliver live on anyday like Vision of Love, I'll be There and Make It Happen people would notice her again for the reason the fell in love with her in the first place.
