Mariah Carey at the BBC

To celebrate the singer who conquered the 1990s and changed the sound of pop and R&B forever, we delve into the BBC archives to bring you all of Mariah Carey's best-loved hits.

A celebration of Mariah Carey that takes an extended look through the BBC archives to demonstrate exactly why she became one of the biggest-selling female artists of all time.

This collection covers all Mariah’s biggest and best-loved hits, including her debut single Vision of Love and her three Number One hits Without You, Against All Odds with Westlife and the winter warmer that is All I Want for Christmas is You. Mariah’s extraordinary voice raised the bar for all R&B artists who would follow her, and her dedication to her UK fans shines through in every song - underlined by the fact that even though she was one of the biggest stars on the planet, she always preferred performance to promo videos – and was one of most frequent visitors to the Top of the Pops live studios.
