We know Mariah Carey to be a very seductive and voluptuous diva but despite her provocative stage presence and personality, she is actually one of the most inspirational singers of our time. The most inspirational Mariah Carey song for me is "They Can't Take That Away From Me". The song is very moving and very dignified. It really strengthens those who are weakened by some of life's troubles and trials. I recommend this song to all those who felt like they're being belittled, underestimated, and also those who feel like giving up and are running out of hope.

Yup, I am agree with you, so here we are the lyrics :
I love it too, here is the lyrics:
They can say,
Anything they want to say,
Try to bring me down,
But I will not allow anyone to succeed hanging clouds over me,
And they can try
How to make me feel that I,
Don't matter at all,
But I refuse to falter in what I believe or loose faith in my dreams
'Cause there's,
There's a light in me,
That shines brightly,
They can try,
But they can't take that away from me
From me
No no nooo
Oh they,
They can do
Anything they want to you,
If you let them in,
But they won't ever win,
If you cling to you pride, and just push them aside,
See I,
I have learned,
There's an inner peace I own,
Something in my soul that they can not possess
So I won't be afraid and the darkness will fade
'Cause there's,
There's light in me me,
That shines brightly, yes
They can try,
But they can't take that away from me
No oh oh,
They can't take this
Precious love I'll always have inside me,
Certainly the Lord will guide me where I need to go
Woah, woah
They can say
Anything they want to say,
Try to bring me down,
But I won't face the ground,
I will rise steadily sailing out of their reach,
Although they do try,
How to make me feel that I,
Don't matter at all,
But I refuse to fall,
Tell me what I believe or loose faith in my dreams,
'Cause there's a light in me,
That shines brightly yes
They can try but they can't take that away from
Me
From me
No no nooo
Me
Lets sing together deeply

The best-selling female performer of the 1990s, Mariah Carey rose to superstardom on the strength of her stunning voice;
I love all her songs but my favourites have to be, Dream Lover , Hero, Through the rain, Without You, and Anytime You Need A Friend.
If youre lonely
And need a friend
And troubles seem like
They never end
Just remember to keep the faith
And love will be there to light the way

For me "hero" is the most inspirational song of mariah carey. As the song implied, each of us is a hero in our own way.

"They Can't Take That Away From Me" is one of my favorite songs of Mariah Carey....yes, it is inspiring and that despite all the criticisms and discouraging things other say about you, they cannot take away from you your sense of self.....that one instinct to protect yourself and be strong no matter what coz if there's one thing you can depend on, its yourself..

I have been a huge Mariah Carey fan since her first album was released. I have so many favorites and I don't think I can choose one. Two of my favorites are "Hero" and "When you believe".

I think we can take the "very" out and we should certainly qualify that statement to say that she has projected a more seductive image in recent times. Needless to say, you are correct, "Can't Take That Away" (Mariah's Theme) is a really beautiful and uplifting song! I think a lot of Mariah's songs are inspiring, some lift your spirits, others inspire you to think outside yourself like "There's Got To Be A Way" from her first album. Among the others that are inspiring there's of course the most popular "Hero" which is a great song for people who feel like they have no talents, skills or aren't special. It reminds us that we all have something to offer the world. "Through the rain" is very good for anyone who feels like they're caught in a "storm" in their life. "My Saving Grace" is uplifting in a spiritual kind of way but speaks to those who may feel like they are not worthy of that kind of upliftment. "Anytime You Need A Friend" inspires us to be there for friends in need. "Fly Like A Bird" is another very spiritual kind of song for people who are discouraged by events in the world today and life in general. "Make It Happen" reminds us how important it is to pray and trust that God will make it happen for us no matter what our dreams or aspirations are.
Even some of the love songs are inspiring in a way, because they speak to the kind of love most people aspire to have in their life. Some of the more inspiring love songs are: "Butterfly," "Music Box," "So Blessed," "Til' The End of Time," "Sent From Up Above," and "Vision of Love."
