Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	A 24-second sample of "Can't Let Go", a song by Mariah Carey, taken from her 1991 album Emotions
Author or copyright owner	(C) 1991 M Carey Songs (BMI) / WB Music Corp. / Wallyworld Music (ASCAP)
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Emotions via Apple Music
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Can't Let Go (Mariah Carey song)
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the song from which this sample is taken. The section of the music used is discussed in the article in relation to Carey's breathy vocal delivery, low vocal register, and vocal harmonies; the synthesizer and drum programming; and the lyrics of the refrain which all received critical commentary.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	As a sample from a copyright musical recording, the sample is not replaceable by free content; any other sample from the same recording would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different sample would be misleading as to the identity of the work.
Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1)	A music piece is best illustrated with a sound sample, since text alone cannot convey the composition.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	The sample lasts for no longer than 10 percent of that of the original recording.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	It would not likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted material as it is only 24 seconds in length compared to the song's full length of 4 minutes and 27 seconds and at a far lower quality than the original. It could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording nor to recreate the original recording.
Other information	The audio sample is a copyrighted work. U.S. copyright laws apply to this work. Should a free or public domain sample be located, it should be used in place of this audio sample. The use of this excerpt is in good faith, and its inclusion enhances the quality of the article without reducing the commercial value of the recording from which it was extracted.
