DVD Reviews of Fantasy - Mariah Carey at Madison Square Garden
DVD Review: A must for your Mariah collection
Summary: 5 Stars
This concert video is Mariah's best so far. The first time I watched it, I was speechless. I had never seen Mariah like this before. She was totally confident, relaxed and gorgeous. Her voice is not as strong as in her previous concert video - Mariah Carey. This, however, is one of the reasons why I love this concert. She demonstrates that she is really seasoned to the concept of live performnce, instead of singing as she would in the studio. She doesn't seem to be trying to prove anything to anyone. The entrance, singing Fantasy, is simply fantastic. My favorite highlights include: Fantasy, Dreamlover, Without You, Always Be My Baby, Vision of Love, I'll Be There...the whole concert! Two fantastic performances, however, are: Make It Happen - what a performance! Especially the little addition after the third verse of the song. I just love it. Next, and believe me, this is a classic Mariah performance. She sings Hero with a massive choir of young people. A single light from above illuminates her as she opens the song. She stands in a long strapless gown, on a plain stage with mainly bluish lights with a standing microphone. The choir marches out part-way into the song. She belts out Hero with a delicate thread of a voice. And at the end, she opens both her arms in a giving way to the audience...it is magical.
My only complaint is the way Vision of Love was cut on this DVD -I first bought this concert in the VHS format. On the tape, after she sings Forever, she introduces her back-up singers and then Vision of Love starts...with the intro music (though not with the bang as in the original version). On the DVD, right after Forever, you see the audience and then, WAP!, Mariah starts singing: "Treated me kind..." I prefer the VHS version of this part of the concert.
The bonus videos, One Sweet Day and Anytime You Need A Friend...I will talk about the latter. The AYNAF remix video is fun fun fun. It appears to be mainly a compilation of behind-the-scene actions for the actual video of the original song and the photo shoot for the cover of the single. It's fun though. I especially love the part where a lady gave one of Mariah's back-up singer a little blouse (I imagine one of Mariah's) to try on! That was hilarious. In another scene, Mariah was 'ironing' her hair - black women used to press their hair to make it straight...so I guess Mariah was trying to emulate a black woman by 'pressing' her hair as well. Only thing is, she was using an actual iron!!!
Fab concert, fab bonus videos, fab product.
