Mariah Carey - America The Beautiful (Unseen Footage, Longest Version On YouTube) With Commentary

If you've already seen this performance, it was from my original VHS tape that I shared with Anderz from Mariah's Diary back in 1998 which Mariah Daily later uploaded as well as other people from the same file. This version includes never-before-seen footage of Mariah before the performance walking in the background.

I still get goosebumps watching this! So legendary 🙌🏿

I love this performance so much, including the introduction of Mariah. They call her a "Colombia Recording Artist" as opposed to now "The Elusive Chanteuse" "The most successful female singer/songwriter in the history of the industry" etc... Its truly inspiring to see her here as a humble recording artist who hadn't even released her first album that would sky rocket her into an incredibly long, incredibly successful career.

She is wearing the Vision of Love video dress - she was so broke at that time!!!

[LeaRNingb]

She said in an interview she was SO nervous and this was biggest crowd she ever performed in front of, but you CANNOT TELL!

Was Mariah just 18 here; she's singing with so much soul, like she's lived an entire lifetime...

I've always wondered what the NBA PLAYERS Thought of Mariah Singing America the Beautiful and the ending part when she did the High NOTE at the End.

I love this version. But the July 4th special is where the quality on her voice was on point. I love when she says "for purple mountains.." I just think she took it to another level...

[colinphulchand]

I wonder what all the NBA Players were thinking about Mariah Singing America the Beautiful . I wonder if they thought who is Mariah ? Especially after she hit that High NOTE.

[soldieron]

This is the reason why everyone over sings the national anthem now. They all tryna be Mariah and I don't know whether I love her or hate her for that 🤣

[colinphulchand]

I wonder what All the NBA Players thought about Mariah after she sang and the Coaches ? Curious to know how they felt and Reacted.
