mariah carey vs. regine velasquez

I know Regine Velasquez very well considering the fact that I am a Filipino and I am residing in the Philippines. She is known to be Asia's songbird. However, I consider Mariah Carey better than her. Regine herself had admitted it that she admires Mariah so much and had even used one Mariah's styles during one of her concerts. Go Mariah:-)

I never heard of Regine Velasquez. I guess that speaks for the qualities of Mariah Carey. If Regine Velasquez was that good, I guess I would have known about her.

I agree, no one can really compare to Mariah, she has that amazing voice, and she has sold so many records, and broken a lot of longstanding records too (with 17 #1 songs, how can she not?), so there really is no comparison. I have heard of Regine, funnily enough, through a music video for The Pretender (my fave tv series), actually one of my favorite Pretender fan videos that apparently was made with a Regine song, so I looked up the lyrics and found the name of the artist. And I think Regine has a decent voice, I liked the song she did that they used for The Pretender video, but there are not many voices that can compare to Mariah's and not be found wanting! Mariah is "the voice"! No one can hit the high notes like she can, or sing with such expressiveness and soulfulness, or write such beautiful lyrics.

Hi there Goymon! I like Regine Velasquez and I think she's really talented and make us, Filipinos really proud. But I like Mariah Carey better. I think she's more flexible and has more experience. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't like Regine. I just have to choose one so I'm choosing Mariah. I think even Regine looks up to her and acknowledges Mariah as one of her musical influences.

nobody compares to mariah carey. regine has got talent, but not as good as mariah carey. Mariah's voice is far different than regine's. I'm not saying regine is not good enough, she sings well. I like some of her songs. http://primeherbal.com

In this case I wuold most def have 2 say Mariah!

Hello goymon!! I am a filipina and i'm proud of Regine, she's one of my favorites and i like some of her songs... but Mariah is my all time favorite aside from Jewel Kilcher. I adore her voice w/c is very flexible and her beauty...

Hi goymon. I like listening to Regine's songs and she really is a good singer, but I much prefer Mariah Carey. She is one of the best singers around.

I like Mariah Carey better than Regine Velasquez. There are times when Regine's voice sounds so dragging. And there are times when she seems to be always shouting, it hurts my ears sometimes.

well obviously mariah is better than regine... regine is always shouting and sumtyms its irritating. but regine can effortlessly hitting high notes.

For me, both are excellent singers. They're actually incomparable since both divas don't have the same signature genres. But I really, really, really LOVE Regine Velasquez. Her story is truly exceptional and inspiring. She has a great talent and a true model of a Filipina.

mariah is the best studio singer but regine is the best live performer
