When You Believe: A Deep Dive (or a Shallow Puddle, Whatever)
Let’s talk about a song that has the power to turn even the most hardened cynic into a sobbing mess. I'm talking about "When You Believe," the cinematic masterpiece birthed from the unholy union of Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. A duet so powerful, it could probably power a small city.
The Song That Could End World Hunger (If Sung Loudly Enough)
Now, I'm not saying this song can solve world hunger. But if it could, I’m pretty sure it would have by now. The sheer vocal prowess on display is nothing short of mind-blowing. It's like those two women decided to have a vocal Olympics and the rest of us are just spectators, gasping in awe.
The lyrics, though, are a whole other story. It’s like someone took a thesaurus, dumped it into a blender, and then had a poet try to make sense of it all. But hey, who cares about lyrics when you've got Whitney and Mariah belting their hearts out?
Believing is Hard, But Singing About It is Fun
I mean, have you ever tried to believe in something wholeheartedly? It's like trying to balance a spoon on your nose while riding a unicycle. Not easy. But when Whitney and Mariah sing about it, it makes you think, "Maybe, just maybe, miracles do happen."
I've tried singing this song in the shower, thinking I could channel my inner diva. Let’s just say, my neighbors probably called the exorcist.
So, How Do You Channel Your Inner Whitney or Mariah?
If you're feeling inspired to belt out some high notes after reading this, here are a few tips:
- How to hit those high notes: Don't. Just kidding. Kind of. Seriously, vocal warm-ups are your friend. And helium.
