Mariah Carey's "My All," [LIVE on SNL 1998] - SINGER REACTS

This is my reaction, analysis and breakdown of Mariah Carey performing “My All,” live on SNL. This song is so good, such a powerful, feel good ballad with a very 90s aesthetic. I love how she starts with a lot of air in her sound, the minor sounding runs, and how the song builds to a belty power ballad typical of Mariah. Her sound is a lot brighter here, which was commono in this era for her, and she gives us some good moments of switches between registers, which she is great at.

I love this video and thought she looked great. Mariah is a great performer in addition to being a great vocalist. Though there were a few moments that indicated her voice may have been tired or irritated, she still sounded great and did a great job of powering through.

I am a jazz/R&B vocalist, baritone saxophone player, music educator, and vocal coach local to New Orleans. I have two degrees in jazz/music education and work professionally playing music. Thank you for all the support on these videos! It is such a joy to create educational, entertaining content for you. I’m looking forward to making more reactions, as well as expanding on ways to create educational/music related content for all of you. I’m so grateful for every one of you!
