    Mariah Carey Unleashes Powerful Voice At Monaco Concert

    Written by Trent | Filed under Mariah Carey
    Mariah Carey Monaco TheLavaLizard

    Mariah Carey

    If you thought Mariah Carey’s rendition of ‘Hero’ at Sporting Monte-Carlo in Monaco was great then you haven’t seen anything yet! Indeed, the legendary singer, who was once accused of losing her vocal gifts, showcased the the full power of her voice at the intimate event by belting her hits ‘We Belong Together’, ‘My All’ and more.

    Carey floated across the Monaco stage as she scaled through her range and wowed the crowd with her incredible voice. Yet, the best part of the show was the fact that she didn’t lip-sync a single note! Watch the footage below to see what I mean:

    ‘We Belong Together’

    ‘Can’t Take That Away From Me’

    ‘My All’

    ‘Love Hangover’/'Heartbreaker’

    ‘I’ll Be There (with Trey Lorenz)’

    If the anticipation for Carey’s new album wasn’t already high then it just hit the roof! Her voice sounded spectacular here and she took us back to 1999 with the clarity of her voice! There really isn’t anything negative to say about this show so just let the tears of joy flow.

      @nasjei aasanti

      The end of WBT sounds like NONE of her previous performances and it does NOT sound like the track. Are you saying she did a live track for this and a different one for Morocco? You are SO PRESSED. You say the same hateful shit in EVERY post. I’m surprised you didn’t bring up Whitney this time.

      LEAVE. Whitney would be ASHAMED of you.

      @nasjei aasanti: If you really feel that way about Trent, please explain to me why you’re still browsing his website. And it’s OK if you don’t like Mariah, just don’t click on the topic just to troll the ones who do. Go out. Get a hobby. Get a life.

      YES!! LET THEM KNOW Ms.Carey!!! Eat them all!! Please!!

      She gave me Donna Summers with Love Hanger and she sounded amazing!!!!

      Show the world them again vocals Ms.Carey!! I loved this concert, her tone sounds great, her flexibility is back in place, her dynamics are getting back to true form and she seems so much more fluid on stage! Forget your nerves Carey and just slay, slay, slay! I love her vocals so much!

      Trent, you’re being biased. This wasn’t that great. She’s still pitchy, inconsistent and cracking. Somehow, Mariah has done irreparable damage to her voice and it’s very obvious. We’re applauding her “legendary” status as opposed to solid vocals. If Beyonce sounded like that or Kelly Rowland, Jennifer Hudson and the rest you’d have every gif and adjective to describe their poor showing.

      What I can’t understand is how Mariah’s normal voice is so inconsistent. She can’t sing the verses which are the easiest parts of the songs? Her belts are good, but I think she should just take a long time off, raise “dem babies” and return once every so often. 2 albums a decade is enough considering she’s done SO MUCH music, She can’t really reclaim that 1990-97 reign. She’s had her time, given us her best, she should let music be secondary, tertiary even.

      Mathew & the other hater nobody is here for y’all weak azz comments. She did her damn thing. Her vocals were amazing. F*ck off somewhere. Keep celebrating y’all. GREAT JOB MARIAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    15. theeriq says:
      June 4, 2012 at 3:55 pm

      “My all” was MY ALL!!!!! The voice is back. She learned the Morocco lesson, she rested her voice and she understood live is best in “Can’t take that away”. She did a great job. She needs to trust herself like this. She’s gonna slay in 2012!

    16. DOMOdotSCORE says:
      June 4, 2012 at 3:59 pm

      She sounds great! If she keeps doing whatever it is that she is doing, she’ll keep sounding great.

      Never been much of a fan but she sounded FANTASTIC

      Matthew Charlery-Smith: “She can’t really reclaim that 1990-97 reign. She’s had her time, given us her best, she should let music be secondary, tertiary even.”

      That’s insulting to say about someone’s art and talent that they greatly treasure and have been doing their whole life. Music is everything to Mariah. It’s not some thing to do on the side. She does’t need to be putting out albums every other year (and she really hasn’t been) but she can definitely still give us great music. People need to stop trying to count her out. She doesn’t deserve that. And who said she is trying to regain the ’90-’97 reign? She is at a different point in her career now. She doesn’t need to do that.

      We know that Mariah’s voice has changed and that she doesn’t sound like the early-mid 90s but that certainly doesn’t mean that she is not amazing and one of the best female vocalists out there.

      i give props where props are due and that was the best she has sounded in 10 years

      Queen Mariah is doing her thing!

      Thank God for this musical being we like to call Mariah. She has touched so many lives with her music and she is forever entertaining.

    22. Theman4u says:
      June 4, 2012 at 7:27 pm

      But one good performance out of the last 10? I wouldn’t say her voice is back, this just may be a good night

    23. Kayla says:
      June 4, 2012 at 7:49 pm

      Go MC! Make your haters your motivators! U better werk!!

      June 4, 2012 at 8:29 pm

      LOFL this was sooo pathetic, if you fools honestly think that screetching and trying sounds good, your stupid and bias, go watch my booboo bee’s show, see what a real voice can do, with real power and octives

    25. Theman says:
      June 4, 2012 at 10:45 pm

      @Theman4u she’s had many great performances. Shut your mouth & stay out of her post if all u do is complain. You’re a hater as it was stated. @Beyfan you’re a complete utter joke. Everyone has heard Beyonce’s singing and it’s nothing special… Period…………………

    26. Beyfan says:
      June 4, 2012 at 11:46 pm

      THEN WHY MA QUEEN GOT 16 GRAMMIES AND YO TIRED BITCH ONLY HAVE LIKE 5, I mean damn, she’s just a voice, and the voice is tired and horse and sounds shitty. I mean real talk she dont even sound as good as Rihanna, and I hate that retard, but she sound better than Mariah, fo damn sho, want me to send you some of the queens music so you can know what a voice is supposed to sound like?

    27. Titan says:
      June 5, 2012 at 12:00 am

      Every time Mariah gets on stage these days, she improves…this is the best she’s sounded in a very long time.

      She also performed Honey at this concert: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XT0E40ESBOs

      June 5, 2012 at 12:56 am

      OMGGG!!!! MARIAH SOUNDS INCREDIBLE IN MONACO! GIRRRL YOU’RE MY LEADER,ALWAYS AND FOREVER!VOCALS WERE ON POINT!!!!!!!

    29. Theman says:
      June 5, 2012 at 1:19 am

      @Beyfan you are a loose cannon. Save the music for yourself. Her music is regular, nothing special. Stop trying so hard. Beyonce is a basic artist, nothing more. Half those grammy’s Beyonce has are gimme awards. Mariah has sold over 200 million records & has eighteen number ones. Thats way more success than Beyonce could ever dream of. She’s also a real songwriter and great artist. She’s not a fraud like others…….

    30. Sisqo says:
      June 5, 2012 at 6:17 am

      Wow!!!!!!! What voice! Mariah is amazing, her vocals where very impressive. She really is back and in a BIG way!

    31. Crissy says:
      June 5, 2012 at 6:20 am

      Mariah really does hold her own I don’t think their is anyone in her league! She is phenominal!

    32. LMAO@u says:
      June 5, 2012 at 7:54 am

      @Beyfan Please bitch, I saw Beyonce on the Ladies First tour….and A. Alicia Keys ate her up! B. I walked out before she even finished the last song “Dangerously In love” because she was trying soooooo hard with her vocal runs that she sounded like a complete mess! She is nothing special…just another artist making it big emulating other artists before them. Funny how she even tried to make her “Star Spangled Banner” sound like Whitney’s. What a joke. And she can’t even write a decent song to save her life…she has to sit around and wait for someone to give her a hit and then claim she wrote it. Anyways, next!

      Are we watching the same videos, because these performances was so dull and boring. I would never pay to go to a Mariah concert. Her stage presence is so falt.

      Her voice sounds very winy and her notes are flat. She sounds like an amateur up there, and not like a woman who has been in in the business for 20+ years

    34. LOVE! says:
      June 5, 2012 at 1:40 pm

      She was a little pitchy on “Can’t Take That Away From Me,” but at least she sang it live. She sounded really good on “We Belong Together” (I loved how she sang the word “believe” because that alone gave me chills). “My All” was my favorite performance of them all because she sounded really good belting out those notes!
      Overall, She did very well and she seemed really happy to be back on stage.

      Dear Hater(s) (insert name here),
      The crowd was cheering and clapping, so they must have enjoyed the performances and that is all that matters.

    35. Beyfan says:
      June 5, 2012 at 11:52 pm

      I see my queen got bitches preessed and hurt, and I cant blame them if my fave was as lame and boring and stupid and drunk as Mooriah, I’d be pissed too, like feel real low about myself. Wheres I feel faboulous cause I bow down to ma queen, and she makes better music than Mariah, and always had a better voice than the cow too, my girl got them high notes and low notes, HA, eat that, AND ma bitch can dance, Mariah cant do nothin, she need to just go to the old folks home and get her shitty diper changed, and just leave the singin up to a real singer like ma Bey, and to the pressed man, too bad you walked out on my girl slaying Floplicia down.

    36. Brutally Honest says:
      June 6, 2012 at 12:36 am

      That crowd looked bored to death. I don’t see anywhere where they’d looked excited. Delusional fans are really reaching

    37. theman says:
      June 6, 2012 at 1:24 am

      Delusional hater, find a hobby. @Beyfan Loooooooooool, pressed over a fraud??? Are you serious. You are as crazy as she is……. Beyonce makes mediocre music….. Nothing great…….. Beyonce high notes???? You mean forced notes…… Low notes…. ????? Forced as well………….. Beyonce her look, music & persona need to hit the refresh button. She’s been stale for a great while. Mariah is awesome and thats that………….

    38. Beyfan says:
      June 6, 2012 at 2:38 am

      If Mariah was “Awsome” her ass would be knowin how to dance after like 20 years in this industry, and you just jealous that ma girl got a real voice, that yo chick could never have, you probably jealous cause ma girl is pretteyer than the Moo Cow too. If yo tired bitch is so good, whycome all her albums except like 2 in the last 10 years FLOP harder than anything, wheres ma bitch aint been a flop a day in her life, she makes masterpieces and you will BOW to them

    39. Mariahsglambs says:
      June 6, 2012 at 3:07 am

      lol @ beyfan, these are the typical delusional bey stans who thinks their Queen would condone their crap. Beyonce started singing because she heard Vision of Love by Mariah and that is how your idol was born. And then she went on steal song credits and blue ivy and everything, thats just her business. but remember its Mariah who invented Beyonce just so you know. And Mariah is a classy diva who doesn’t need to dance or steal to sell records. BYE!

    40. Mariahsglambs says:
      June 6, 2012 at 3:09 am

      lol beyfan is so pressed!! lololol why dont you spend more time at your Blue Ivy alter or something, you psychopath. LMAO

      June 6, 2012 at 3:11 am

      “THEN WHY MA QUEEN GOT 16 GRAMMIES AND YO TIRED BITCH ONLY HAVE LIKE 5″ Why? You sure you dont know why? Lol, because Mr Knowles bought them sis. You know you know the truth. Gosh you tried it sis, retire now!

    42. Mariahsglambs says:
      June 6, 2012 at 3:14 am

      This is proof that Mariah’s voice is recovering from pregnancy and whatever from 2008. This is REAL pregnancy, not someone who just gave birth and looked the same as before. But still, I’m just glad that Mariah sung these songs(which she wrote by the way, they werent stolen(;) and i’m just hoping she would do I Still Believe or Side Effects, somewhat lesser known songs from her 13 albums, which has 6 #1 albums, 18 #1 hits, over 200 records sold worldwide.

    43. Beyfan says:
      June 6, 2012 at 4:51 am

      Mariah’sLamb is just mad as hell My queen is taking her spot, and you lyin as hell, my girl started singin when she was 4, she was 9 when Vision of Love came out, so get yo fackts straight booboo, makin up shit aint cute. And obviously yo girl cant sell records by just singin CAUSE SHE GOT SO MANY FLOPS IF SANGIN WAS ALL IT TAKES FOR HER, SHE’D HAVE NOTHIN BUT GOLD, OUCH DID THAT HURT YOU, I BET IT DID, I BET YOU FEEL REAL CRUNCHY BOWT YO LIFE NOW DONT YOU? Go sit down somewhere, leave that Mariah shit alone, and come stan for a real entertainer, someone who wouldnt degrade her stans by callin us “lambs” I aint no animal so I’d hate that shit, thats fucked up, Im a mutha fuckin person, who bows down to ma queen, I aint no stupid farm animal that needs to be led to a slawterhouse neither, like lambs do.

    44. Beyfan says:
      June 6, 2012 at 5:03 am

      I betchu I scared them lambs away, shit dont nobody care about her flat ass, look at her audience they hate her, nobody doin nothin, she sucks and the lambs know it!

      June 6, 2012 at 2:25 pm

      @Beyfan is clearly an idiot. Your grammar is horrendous. Animal names lol… But you’re fine with being called the Beyhive. Mariah created all of these fan names remember??? You are pointless….

    46. Beyfan says:
      June 6, 2012 at 3:37 pm

      @Theman clearly you just jealous, and I’d rather be a Bee than a fuckin lamb that gets slawtered like yall. STUPID, and maybe you should just go into a closset and sit for a minite because you lookin real stupid fo real, and you know it too, and you know my bitch is the best bitch to do it and you hate her for it too dont you.
