by music and by creativity.

I kinda wanna remind both of us
where we were a year ago.

[inhales sharply] Hmm.

112
00:06:18,921 --> 00:06:24,009
Well, I mean, it was really tough
trying to put everything together…

113
00:06:24,092 --> 00:06:27,262
-Mmm.
-…for the Christmas special last year.

114
00:06:27,346 --> 00:06:29,264
You put so much heart and soul into that.

115
00:06:29,348 --> 00:06:31,308
Did you watch it last Christmas?
Watch it with the family?

116
00:06:31,391 --> 00:06:33,519
Of course, we watched it. It was fun.

117
00:06:33,602 --> 00:06:36,730
I mean, the kids were there.
It was a whole moment.

118
00:06:36,813 --> 00:06:39,650
It was really-- Even my dogs were there.
This year, we couldn't bring the dogs.

119
00:06:39,733 --> 00:06:41,360
I don't know.
There was some drama with the permit

120

-or some nonsense.
-Right.

Yeah. They like--

124
00:06:48,617 --> 00:06:50,369
Zane, you couldn't pull through
for the dogs?

125
00:06:50,452 --> 00:06:52,454
I tried. They wouldn't let 'em on set.
I wanted the dogs here.

126
00:06:52,538 --> 00:06:54,206
Oh, my gosh. Mutley-- Mutley is so mad.

-So your dogs.

131
00:07:01,755 --> 00:07:03,841
What are some of your fondest
memories of last year?

132
00:07:03,924 --> 00:07:06,635
Um, I ended up doing this project
called the Butterfly Lounge,

133
00:07:06,718 --> 00:07:09,304
where I wrote this song, uh,
"Fall In Love At Christmas,"

134
00:07:09,388 --> 00:07:11,390
'cause my band was all based
out of Atlanta.

135
00:07:11,473 --> 00:07:15,519
So we were there writing new songs,
and Kirk Franklin came in,

136
00:07:15,602 --> 00:07:17,771
and he just kinda listened to it
and vibed with it

137
00:07:17,855 --> 00:07:21,483
and took it home and did what he does,
which is his magic.

138
00:07:21,567 --> 00:07:23,735
So, it's just a fun--
what I would call a love song.

139
00:07:23,819 --> 00:07:25,404
-It's like a Christmas love song.
-Yeah.

140
00:07:25,487 --> 00:07:26,864
-It reaches people.
-It's about this time.

141
00:07:26,947 --> 00:07:28,991
I feel like it's about
what we're going through.

142
00:07:29,074 --> 00:07:31,577
That lyric at the end that--
that Kirk says, you know,

143
00:07:31,660 --> 00:07:34,037
"More than ever before,
love is to be something, um,

144
00:07:34,121 --> 00:07:35,539
-we do, not something we say."
-We say.

145
00:07:35,622 --> 00:07:38,166
"This holiday let's give love away."
That's a beautiful sentiment.

146
00:07:38,250 --> 00:07:40,210
It gave me chills when I first heard it.

147
00:07:40,294 --> 00:07:44,298
And I was just so excited that we have
this moment to perform it together.

148
00:07:44,381 --> 00:07:47,426
The single is out. You know,
sometimes these collaborations happen

149
00:07:47,509 --> 00:07:49,344
and they're-- and they're cool
for the moment,

150
00:07:49,428 --> 00:07:51,013
but sometimes they're, like, meant to be,

151
00:07:51,096 --> 00:07:53,432
and I really love the journey
the song takes you on

152
00:07:53,515 --> 00:07:56,852
from love song to spirituality and world.

153
00:07:56,935 --> 00:07:58,562
How was performing it tonight?

154
00:07:58,645 --> 00:08:00,397
-Am-- Like, the band is incredible.
-Yeah.

155
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,193
I, personally, like-- The blessing
that I take from this moment

156
00:08:04,276 --> 00:08:08,864
is that I was able to get back
to the singer-songwriter of it all,

157
00:08:08,947 --> 00:08:11,283
rather than, like,
schlepping around the world.

158
00:08:11,366 --> 00:08:14,328
-No offense to schlepping. But--
-You've schlepped.

159
00:08:14,411 --> 00:08:17,289
And we'll schlep again, maybe,
in a fun way.

160
00:08:17,372 --> 00:08:18,957
But no. This is, uh--

161
00:08:19,041 --> 00:08:21,251
-So many Easter eggs in this conversation.
-[laughing]

162
00:08:21,335 --> 00:08:23,879
This is the best Mariah Carey
interview ever.

163

"I'm making new music."

164
00:08:26,381 --> 00:08:28,717
Within five minutes,
"I may do some schlepping."

165
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,928
-This is the best.
-They know what I mean.

166
00:08:31,011 --> 00:08:34,014
It's never schlepping when the fans
are there. That's the goal.

167
00:08:34,097 --> 00:08:35,307
-One hundred percent.
-Know what I mean?

168
00:08:35,390 --> 00:08:37,142
But it's been cool to sit back and go,

169
00:08:37,226 --> 00:08:38,727
-"I wanna write something new."
-To create.

170
00:08:38,808 --> 00:08:42,356
To create, to produce, to write, to do
all the things that I really love doing.

171

I gotta ask you how the book
has influenced that.

173
00:08:47,069 --> 00:08:49,363
Because when we spoke last year,
we talked about space, remember?

174
00:08:49,446 --> 00:08:50,864
-Yeah.
-We talked about freeing up

175
00:08:50,948 --> 00:08:53,033
-a lot of the energy you hold on to.
-Mm-hmm.

176
00:08:53,116 --> 00:08:56,078
To me, that would influence the music.
Influence the art.

177
00:08:56,161 --> 00:08:57,162
-Yes.
-And has it?

178
00:08:57,246 --> 00:09:01,208
I believe so, yeah. The goal is
to emancipate that little girl.

179
00:09:01,291 --> 00:09:04,795
Little Mariah. The--
My, uh, little-girl self.

180
00:09:04,878 --> 00:09:07,840
And so, I think a lot of that
really did happen.

181
00:09:07,923 --> 00:09:10,342
A lot of healing happened during that.

182
00:09:10,425 --> 00:09:13,470
And it's been really cool because
we've been filming the whole time,

183
00:09:13,554 --> 00:09:16,640
so it's like-- it's so not
this moment of glamour.

184
00:09:16,723 --> 00:09:19,726
It's behind the scenes, writing, whatever.

185
00:09:19,810 --> 00:09:21,687
Mutley and Cha Cha are there.
The kids make--

186
00:09:21,770 --> 00:09:23,021
Sweatpants. Hoodies.

187
00:09:23,105 --> 00:09:25,107
-You think I'm lying?
-I think you're telling the truth.

188
00:09:25,190 --> 00:09:27,985
I don't know if I'm in sweatpants
and hoodies, but definitely pj's.

189
00:09:28,068 --> 00:09:29,778
-That's been my COVID attire.
-All right.

190
00:09:29,862 --> 00:09:32,614
I think this is the first time I've put
anything that clings on for 18 months.

191
00:09:32,698 --> 00:09:34,491
-I was planning--
-I'm not used to the shoes anymore.

192
00:09:34,575 --> 00:09:37,160
-Seriously, what are we doing here?
-I'm here to bring joy to the world.

193
00:09:37,244 --> 00:09:39,746
-And you do that.
-[laughs]

194
00:09:39,830 --> 00:09:40,873
[Lowe] One of the great moments

195
00:09:40,956 --> 00:09:42,916
in the Mariah Carey
Magical Christmas Special

196
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,502
is this anthem,
"All I Want For Christmas Is You,"

197
00:09:45,586 --> 00:09:47,129
and the performance that you did.

198
00:09:47,212 --> 00:09:49,173
What was your goal
with that timeless song?

199
00:09:49,256 --> 00:09:52,259
What did you want to
really bring out of it for the special?

200
00:09:52,342 --> 00:09:55,596
Well, I feel like because we were all
just going through so much.

201
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,015
And I just wanted that song
to uplift people.

202
00:09:58,098 --> 00:10:00,100
I really felt like
I was on a mission, like,

203
00:10:00,184 --> 00:10:03,145
I can't not celebrate Christmas
with the world.

204
00:10:03,228 --> 00:10:04,479
-And guess what?
-Mm-hmm.

205
00:10:04,563 --> 00:10:08,942
This year, "All I Want For Christmas
Is You" is now certified Diamond.

206
00:10:09,026 --> 00:10:13,864
I don't know, the song itself matters
to me on a level that goes beyond, like,

207
00:10:13,947 --> 00:10:16,450
-the sales and all those other things.
-Yeah.

208
00:10:16,533 --> 00:10:19,953
Because I've grown to love it more.
I've grown to be able to be like,

209
00:10:20,037 --> 00:10:22,831
"Okay, you know, I'm listening to it
for the love of the song."

210
00:10:22,915 --> 00:10:24,583
-Yeah.
-I used to sit there and listen to it

211
00:10:24,666 --> 00:10:27,211
when I first wrote it and recorded it
and pick it apart.

212
00:10:27,294 --> 00:10:30,422
And go, "Ugh. Why did I keep that?
Why did I do this?" You know,

213
00:10:30,506 --> 00:10:31,507
-I do that…
-Of course.

214
00:10:31,590 --> 00:10:34,176
…but it's become a thing
where I think I appreciate it

215
00:10:34,259 --> 00:10:37,262
in the same way that people
who aren't me…

216
00:10:37,346 --> 00:10:39,640
-Yeah.
-…who like the song appreciate it.

217
00:10:39,723 --> 00:10:43,769
How do you get yourself into a space
in the studio

218
00:10:43,852 --> 00:10:46,438
where you're able to listen to these songs
that have been sung for generations…

219
00:10:46,522 --> 00:10:48,023
-Mm-hmm.
-…and do it in a way

220
00:10:48,106 --> 00:10:49,525
that feels really authentic to you?

221
00:10:49,608 --> 00:10:51,652
I have to have decorations.

222
00:10:51,735 --> 00:10:55,322
So I had this room fully decorated
downstairs in the house.

223
00:10:55,405 --> 00:10:56,573
-Mm-hmm.
-Then, I don't know,

224
00:10:56,657 --> 00:10:59,743
whoever was doing the tree, they were
totally bleak and took the tree down.

225
00:10:59,826 --> 00:11:01,620
I was like, "Really?
They're gonna take my tree down?"

226
00:11:01,703 --> 00:11:04,122
-Who takes a tree down?
-Ugh. Some scrooge. Whatever.

227
00:11:04,206 --> 00:11:06,583
And I was like,
"Now they want me to finish the song.

228
00:11:06,667 --> 00:11:10,003
-How am I supposed to do it?" Luckily--
-♪ Christmas is closed for business ♪

229
00:11:10,087 --> 00:11:11,505
-There you go.
-There you go.

230
00:11:11,588 --> 00:11:12,589
You can start that one.

231
00:11:12,673 --> 00:11:14,341
-I was just--
-But I had my blanket,

232
00:11:14,424 --> 00:11:17,636
that's, my new Christmas merch, and I was
like, "Let me put that in there."

233
00:11:17,719 --> 00:11:19,930
So I put it in the studio
and put it on my doggy

234
00:11:20,013 --> 00:11:23,433
and my little plush toy and I was like,
"Okay, look, I guess I can look at that."

235
00:11:23,517 --> 00:11:25,269
-These are beautiful, though.
-They are beautiful.

236
00:11:25,352 --> 00:11:27,229
-Yeah. The whole vibe.
-I wanted to ask you whether

237
00:11:27,312 --> 00:11:29,481
these meet your standard
of tree decoration.

238
00:11:29,565 --> 00:11:32,401
-Absolutely. Yes.
-Right. 'Cause there are dos and don'ts.

239
00:11:32,484 --> 00:11:35,779
Well, I would've had butterflies on it
if I had been able to come here

240
00:11:35,863 --> 00:11:39,199
a day before with my art director's hat on
and just kinda tweak things.

241
00:11:39,283 --> 00:11:40,659
-A little reverse engineering.
-Yeah.

242
00:11:40,742 --> 00:11:43,287
I mean, I have no problem doing that.
But what can I do?

243
00:11:43,370 --> 00:11:45,455
I can't-- I can't put these thoughts
in people's minds.

244
00:11:45,539 --> 00:11:47,708
-You can come and take the tree away.
-[laughs]

245
00:11:47,791 --> 00:11:49,710
I have to ask a cheeky question
because, gosh darn it,

246
00:11:49,793 --> 00:11:51,920
-you've dropped enough hints.
-Oh, no. Cheeky.

247
00:11:52,004 --> 00:11:53,839
-You've dropped enough hints.
-Yes.

248
00:11:53,922 --> 00:11:57,092
Are we hopeful we're gonna hear
something new

249
00:11:57,176 --> 00:11:59,052
from you sooner rather than later?

250
00:11:59,636 --> 00:12:02,973
Are we hopeful?
I can't speak for anyone but me.

251
00:12:03,056 --> 00:12:05,142
-I'm working. I'm in the studio, yeah.
-Right.

252
00:12:05,225 --> 00:12:08,270
I have another project
that I'm very excited about.

253
00:12:08,353 --> 00:12:12,274
I don't wanna say, 'cause then people
are like, "Who is it?" and whatever.

254
00:12:12,357 --> 00:12:15,235
But already some people that are just--

255
00:12:15,319 --> 00:12:17,029
It's like, a-- been a lifelong dream
to work with.

256
00:12:17,112 --> 00:12:17,988
-Wow.
-So, yeah.

257
00:12:18,071 --> 00:12:22,159
[Lowe] This incredible event
that you've created for the ages,

258
00:12:22,242 --> 00:12:23,493
it's gonna be around forever.

259
00:12:23,577 --> 00:12:25,704
One thing always really stood out to me,

260
00:12:25,787 --> 00:12:30,042
which was that you got to share
a moment in there with your kids.

261
00:12:30,125 --> 00:12:31,335
I know.

262
00:12:31,418 --> 00:12:34,004
-How special was that?
-That was the best. No, it was the best.

263
00:12:34,087 --> 00:12:36,673
Because forever,
we'll have that memory together.

264
00:12:36,757 --> 00:12:37,966
-Yeah.
-You know?

265
00:12:38,050 --> 00:12:40,886
But, by the way, they are here
and they're very patient.

266
00:12:40,969 --> 00:12:43,680
-So, they wanted to come say hi to you.
-Hey!

267
00:12:43,764 --> 00:12:45,933
-Roc and Roe!
-What's going on?

268
00:12:46,016 --> 00:12:47,267
-Here's Miss Monroe.
-Hi.

269
00:12:47,351 --> 00:12:48,977
-Nice to meet you.
-And RocStar.

270
00:12:49,061 --> 00:12:50,103
Nice to meet you.

271
00:12:50,187 --> 00:12:52,439
Look at the back.
But we have to discuss this.

272
00:12:52,523 --> 00:12:54,733
-[Lowe] Look at this!
-[Mariah] Come on.

273
00:12:54,816 --> 00:12:56,860
You guys with the merch game.
The hoodies.

274
00:12:56,944 --> 00:12:58,654
Aw, wow, the fit is awesome.

275
00:12:58,737 --> 00:13:00,572
-You're on-brand. They're oversize.
-Yes. Yes.

276
00:13:00,656 --> 00:13:03,158
-It's great to meet you. Merry Christmas.
-[both] Merry Christmas.

277
00:13:03,242 --> 00:13:05,661
Your favorite time of year,
hands down, best time of year?

278
00:13:05,744 --> 00:13:06,912
-Yes, yes, yes.
-Definitely.

279
00:13:06,995 --> 00:13:08,664
-Yay!
-Halloween is, like, number two.

281
00:13:10,249 --> 00:13:14,253
No, it-- Every year, I-I just have to say,
I enjoy it maybe more than them.

282
00:13:14,336 --> 00:13:17,172
But I don't know. Do you guys have fun
every year or do I have more fun?

283
00:13:17,256 --> 00:13:18,215
I think--

284
00:13:18,298 --> 00:13:20,175
I think we all have
the same amount of fun.

285
00:13:20,259 --> 00:13:23,637
Personally, I think I, like--
I love Christmas. It's my favorite.

286
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,347
-We all have fun.
-Yay! Come on.

287
00:13:25,430 --> 00:13:27,349
-That is the best. [chuckles]
-Last year,

288
00:13:27,432 --> 00:13:31,061
he woke us all up at 6:00 a.m.
to open presents.

289
00:13:31,144 --> 00:13:33,355
-And I was still up from--
-Oh. Good man.

290
00:13:33,438 --> 00:13:35,315
-Still working.
-I couldn't sleep. I was too excited.

291
00:13:35,399 --> 00:13:37,192
-I don't blame you.
-Because I saw-- 'cause--

292
00:13:37,276 --> 00:13:39,820
When I was trying to go to the kitchen,
I saw a bunch of presents and was like,

293
00:13:39,903 --> 00:13:42,364
"Ooh! Ooh! I-I-I'm ready.
I'm ready. I'm ready."

294
00:13:42,447 --> 00:13:45,200
I was like, "Guys, guys, I can't sleep."
And they're like, "Go to sleep."

295
00:13:45,284 --> 00:13:46,910
Were you mad at your brother
for waking you up?

296
00:13:46,994 --> 00:13:48,537
-No, I was like, "Thanks, bro."
-Let's go.

297
00:13:48,620 --> 00:13:50,998
-[laughs]
-I love that you guys hung out with us.

298
00:13:51,081 --> 00:13:52,666
-Thank you for helping us.
-Yes.

299
00:13:52,749 --> 00:13:54,585
-Mariah, kids, great to see you.
-Thank you, Zane.

300
00:13:54,668 --> 00:13:55,878
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas!

301

-Merry Christmas.
-Happy Holidays.

302
00:13:57,379 --> 00:13:59,173
Happy Holidays.
Can I go off with these guys?

303
00:13:59,256 --> 00:14:00,257
Yeah, please.

304
00:14:00,340 --> 00:14:02,384
-You're kicking me out, right? We're done.
-Beat it.

305
00:14:02,467 --> 00:14:04,136
-All right, yeah.
-[laughs] Thank you, Zane.

306

-Thank you.
-Bye!

-Bye, guys.
-Bye!

308
00:14:06,597 --> 00:14:11,560
Before we go, Mariah Carey has
something very special for us tonight.

309
00:14:11,643 --> 00:14:14,605
She's returning to the stage to perform
a real fan favorite

310
00:14:14,688 --> 00:14:18,609
for the holiday season,
"Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)."

311
00:14:18,692 --> 00:14:19,943
Thank you so much for watching.

312

As always, it's so much fun spending
any time with the Queen of Christmas.
