Hear Mariah Carey And Ariana Grande Harmonize In High Pitched Whistle Notes

Posted on December 7, 2020

This is a vocal gift for the ages

For Mariah Carey’s Magical Christmas Special, Ariana Grande joined Carey and Jennifer Hudson for a remix of her 2010 hit “Oh Santa!” from her album Merry Christmas II You.

In less than 24 hours after it landed on YouTube, it was already No. 2.

Why? Carey and Grande harmonize on whistle-tone notes, and it’s ridiculous.

Some people testify that Mariah invented this vocal trickery, but even if she didn’t do it first, she does it best, and has the led the way for other pop stars to follow. Want to fast forward to the vocal calisthenics?

 

Unless you are a singer, you have no idea how the outrageous this moment is, as the ability to do this trick takes a lifetime of practice.
