Alrighty, so I just got home today and decided to type this out before I forget any details I wanted to add. I saw the show on July 11th with my grandma and it was absolutely incredible!! She sounded really good even though I think she was a bit sick (she kept coughing and she was drinking tea) but it was really entertaining and wonderful! It felt so personal and I almost cried a few times. It was also really cool because everyone was singing along and it was really fun!

 

We got to the colosseum at around 7 40 and we got our seats. We sat in the front orchestra towards the back but it felt really close and I was really pleased with the seats. We ended up talking to this guy sat next to us who came all the way from Chicago! There were also these Chinese "lambs" who sat a few rows behind us and each person had a shirt with their own individual letter that spelled out "China <3 Mariah". When they came in (before the show started) they lit up their shirts and everyone was cheering and clapping (she ended up meeting them and posted about it to her Instagram).

There were a lot of people but there were still a lot of seats available. She was supposed to go on at 8 but she ended up going on about 20 minutes later and I assume it was because people were still going in.

She also called out the Chinese lambs like 3 separate times and you can tell she really was touched that they went above and beyond for it. (It was also super cool because she was looking at my section and it felt like she was looking at me haha). By the time the show started, it looked really full.

 

She obviously performed her #1 songs and in chronological order. The first was Vision of Love. (They said no video but everyone was filming so I got some of my favorites and a few clips here and there). When she appeared everyone lost their minds. People started stood and clapping and cheering and it was great. She sounded really, really good. She came in with the big hair and a really beautiful black dress. The stage was so pretty, there were big butterfly wings and the colors background were reminiscent of the VOL music video. I loved the last few lines where she did it with just the piano assistance "And it was all that you turned out to *she signals music* BEEE" (I was freaking out in the video a little bit lol)

After the song she said hi to everyone and how much she loved the crowd. I don't really remember Love Takes Time and I didn't video it, but I remember I was in so much awe that she was right there.

 

Someday was good, it's not a favorite of mine but she brought out the dancers in this song.

 

I got a lot of I Don't Wanna Cry since it was the one I was looking forward to and she sounds ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. I stood for this one and so did a few people near me but a lot of people were sitting.

When she sang Emotions, people got really excited and were standing. She sounded excellent in this as well. During one whistle it sounded a bit weird but she did really well on all the other whistles.

 

I'll be a there was next and it was so good! Trey Lorenz came up to sing with her and towards the end of the song a clip of Jackson 5 came up and Michael was singing and it was really cute. Here's a clip of it!

The next part was a new part of the show and it was a video of her and her different friends while the anytime you need a friend remix was playing while she went to then did a costume change.

 

Next was Dreamlover and she came out in a pink car and the effects were very cute.

When she did Hero and I teared up here and almost practically sobbed. The stage looked so incredibly beautiful! It was slightly reminiscent of the Disney movie tangled with all the lights. I actually really hate this song but I really felt it this time. My grandma recorded the whole video for this and I was really grateful for that haha

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEUW26pru3Y

 

Fantasy was next and this was so much fun! It was the remix and everyone got up and started dancing! A lot of this was lipped but everyone was having such a god time it didn't really matter.

 

One sweet day was so good! I got part of this too and it was really nice to watch. Trey Lorenz sang with her as well as the guy who was playing the keys for her, Daniel Moore. Unfortunately his mic wasn't really working so it was mainly trey and Mariah.

Always be my baby was so fun! She actually came out into the audience when she was singing and was walking around the aisles which was super cool! I got a few pictures of her haha. She came by my area and it was crazy to see her so up close. Some people took selfies with her and hugged her so that was cute.

Next was Honey was next which was cute too. They showed a clip of the honey video so she can do a costume change and she came out on a jet ski with a full bathing suit. It was obvious she lipped some of the parts but overall it was really cute. It was also the remix version of the song which was cool and while they showed the video of rapping part, she was dancing with her dancers. I got video of her dancing with them because it's really cute/funny because she can't dance at all haha. She then walked off to do a costume change.

 

 

My All was absolutely amazing!! It might've been one of my favorite performances of the night. She sounded so good and I loved every second. I only got parts of it but it was gorgeous. Everyone was singing along and the girls in front of us were having a blast haha.

 

 

Heartbreaker was next (it was the remix) and it was really fun! She then got off the stage to do another costume change.

 

Thank god I found you was amazing! She sang with just Jim wright playing the piano and it was so beautiful. I didn't particularly like the dress haha. People were clapping and attempting to sing along because it wasn't in it's original key haha.

The next few songs such as We belong together, and Don't Forget About Us, were great too! Everyone was standing up and singing and dancing and having such a good time.

 

 

Touch my body was fun! She played a clip of the music video and she came out on a rolling bed. She then brought a fan onstage (it was a man) and her dancers put a blindfold on him and one of her male dancers (everyone loved him, he was gorgeous) was standing on the bed and just dancing. Nothing raunchy but it was cute. Her dancers then took the blindfold off and Mariah thanked the fan.

 

I remember she went offstage for a bit (I don't remember if it was before or after Touch My Body) and Trey Lorenz introduced all the dancers and the musicians so that was nice. He also said what states they're from and she has a really diverse team of people.

 

Infinity was last and that was fun! She had he lyric video up in the background and people were dancing for this too! When she did the whistle a whole bunch of confetti fell and it was really cool. She thanked the audience and said thank you for coming outside etc.

 

The whole show was absolutely amazing and I really enjoyed every second of it. She still has such a great voice and the whole thing felt incredibly intimate. It felt as if she was singing directly to you and now I'm sad it's over lol.

Just a few more things I wanted to say but I loved how intimate it was. It felt like she was singing to you and CPalace is really beautiful! I had never been there before so it was really nice. Hearing her sing was such an experience and she has such a great show! Her voice sounds stupendous! It may not be as great as it was but she put on a great show. She really, really loves the fans. It was really cute because she would always respond to the "I LOVE YOU MARIAH" comments, and she would point out fans who she saw and would say "I can see you *whatever color shirt they were wearing*". She even would be like "I can see you!" and wave to the people who were sitting on the highest level.

 

I met a few fans afterward and they were incredibly nice. Turns out they rode in the same elevator as her twins before the concert started and they said that Roc & Roe were with people and they were being carried.

 

I also went to the shop after with my grandma the show but decided to leave because it was sooooo packed. We ended up going Sunday instead and it was practically empty. Seeing all the Celine stuff made my heart go pitter patter haha. I bought a Celine mug, and Mariah's shirt as well as the book thingy (the word is escaping me at the moment). When I was buying my things the lady wa super nice! She asked if we were going to the show that night but we said no we had went last night and she asked how it was. She then asked if we've seen Celine there ever, and we said no and she said that usually people come out sobbing when her show is over haha. She was incredibly lovely.

She got it today! She looked so beautiful!

 

I missed the live stream (I saw pictures) but some people said as soon as they revealed the star Roc walked on it lol

Monroe looked cute. She was pretty reserved. There's a clip of Roc grabbing Mariah and the nanny had to get him off of her. He's a kid though so it's understandable.

 

I think Brett ratner spoke but I'm not sure who else spoke.

Mariah pretty much ignoring her kid and not trying to embrace him came across as really vile.

That's exactly what I thought!!! Even when the girl pulled him away she was still consumed with her pictures. Celine stays on focus- but at least she acknowledges when one of her kids come over- you know!? It's just so weird/odd

I didn't know love until they loved me back to life because somebody loves somebody!

Le temps qui compte pour Celine est maintenant! post-26465-0-84517800-1427302581_thumb.gif

I've always wondered, is there a live performance video of Mariah during late '96 or early '97 or during the Daydream-Butterfly transition? Every time I search for videos during 1996, I always get her "Daydream" voice, and 1997 her "Butterfly" voice. I mean there has to be a transition where we can hear how her voice changed in between two eras. I don't think I've seen a live performance from her during the transition period. Did she take a long break after the Daydream Tour and just came back out of the blue in 1997 with a new image and a "new" voice?

I've looked for the same and I don't think a performance exists. I think she ended daydream with the tour in summer of 96, around July maybe? And then butterfly was sometime in 1997. Not sure what the first performance of that Era was, maybe honey top of the pops?

I remember she said during her Oprah interview in 1997 that the "Hero" performance (on that show) was her first live performance since completing the Butterfly album. And she was already struggling in that performance. That's why it's still a mystery to me how she sounded during the last quarter of 1996 until the early 1997. But yeah I don't think a live performance during that period exists.

She's not going to, I believe her publicist said so.

Plus she had so many complications when she was pregnant with the twins I don't think she'll have anymore kids.

Yes, I supposed it was false. The rumours were later denied.
