Can You Hear Me has for me this heart-aching quality. Mariah's delivery is superb - that almost breathless yearning... it's beautiful.
The song sounds like such a classic - when I looked up Barry Mann, I wasn't at all surprised to see some of the songs he's written.
I thought CYHM recalled some of the classic ballads from the 80s, those 'torch songs' - and it is reminiscent of 'somewhere Out There'... and sure enough he actually co-wrote that one too.
This could have lived on a Whitney or Celine album - just sounds like those great late 80s early 90s ballads. I love it.
