Mariah is a lesser version of Minnie Riperton.

Maybe it's because I'm relatively young but Minnie puts me to sleep.

I'm young and Mariah puts me to sleep.

To each their own I guess. I could never personally like Minnie's dated singing style.

They're both phenomenal, but I prefer Mariah's voice.

The last Celine album we bought was the one that had the Titanic (sets up noose and chair) on it. It wasn't the worst thing, it was ok, just by then it was like ENOUGH already. I really enjoyed the ones before, tho.

I saw her live when she toured for Falling Into You and she was phenomenal back then.

I would still go see her in Vegas tho because it's VEGAS and I think she'd put on an entertaining show in context of the venue.

I think Mariah's discography in general is way more interesting(to me at least) than Celine's and Nippy's too.

Celine by far, even though I can't name any of her songs except titanic.

Whitney Huston is better than Mariah.

I'd say Celine, because Mariah has lot a lot of her vocal ability now because of vocal nodules- but she used to be amazing in the 90s and the early 2000s. I still like voice but its not the same anymore.

yeahthat

If we're comparing Celine's and Mariah's voices today, I'd pick Celine. But during the 90s-early 00s, her voice was phenomenal.

Honey, stop talking and just create the music.

my vote is for Mariah. Celine has a beautifu voice, but its kind of "cold" to me. the Titanic song is great but its emotion is connected to the film context of the song. I was PISSED when she remade, If U Asked Me To and it was a "hit" because it was Celine, when Patti's original version is far superior. Celine needs good material to be listenable to me and she's gotten a lot over the years, but give me Mariah's ballads like My All, Can't Let Go, etc any day.

Celine Dion.

In my opinion, Mariah isn't a good singer.

I like Celine singing in French better than English.
