Mariah Carey Stuns with Powerful Rendition of ‘Without You’
Mariah Carey’s Butterfly Medley Performance
We’re aware that this album holds a special place in Mariah’s heart. However, the surprise of a full album overview, featuring tracks like “Breakdown” and “Babydoll,” last performed live in 2016, caught us off guard. Similarly, tackling the vocally challenging “Butterfly,” last performed in 2006, was unexpected. Set against the backdrop of a “Butterfly Lounge,” this setting perfectly highlighted how Mariah’s vocals remain melismatic, effortlessly reaching high and low notes, without the mishaps of past performances.
The Celebration of Mimi
In Act 4, the Emancipation era came to life. Mariah kicked off with “I Wish You Knew,” last performed in 2006, before delving into the album’s singles and beloved cuts like “Your Girl” and “Circles.” Notably, “Circles” was fully performed live for the first time yesterday.
Not only did she encore with “Fly Like a Bird,” but she also revisited the iconic low-cut dress from her 2006 Grammys performance, in upgraded fashion.
Mariah’s vocals, hitting golden notes rather than shying away, make this a truly unforgettable show. And have we mentioned that new ending to “Without You”?
