 3 edits | [music] Mariah Carey High Notes Wow! This girl can go high! FYI: What she does is called whistle register. It is the highest register in the human voice. Very rare. Even more rare when you can sing and have whistle register at the same time. By that I mean some people have it, but their singing sucks. Go Mariah!
Edit: Finally got it working! »www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9sshTKgJhE

 franzcatchMad APremium join:2003-06-24 Saint Louis, MO | reply to Nymostwanted Mariah is a great singer... but when she hits her high notes it seems a little bit like she is just Screaming into the microphone. -- SOCOM3: Franz-, MGS3: Franz-, V pillars |

 | As you might see in the video, some songs it sounds as if she were screaming, but on others, it sounds like a whistle. The reason for this is vibrato.

 KCrimsonPremium join:2001-02-25 Brooklyn, NY kudos:1 | reply to Nymostwanted I wonder if she'll still be able to reach that register in another 10 or 15 years. I'm betting no - at that time will we still like her vocal quality without it? |
|
 | reply to Nymostwanted I think she has a great voice but what use is doing that "Whistle Register" thing unless she's trying to train dogs?
Does it make the songs better? Do the songs even need that kind of thing? |
|
 | reply to Nymostwanted The ear thing is so she could be able to hear her whistle register pitch over the crowd. I guess that's her "signature" thing, whistle register. -- Who Cares? I Don't. Neither Should You.

|
 | Actually, she was. In that movie, The Bachelor, and it was really her singing. -- Who Cares? I Don't. Neither Should You.
