"Emotions" is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey for her second studio album of the same name (1991). It was written and produced by Carey, Robert Clivillés, and David Cole of C+C Music Factory and released as the album's lead single on August 13, 1991.

The song's lyrics has its protagonist going through a variety of emotions from high to low, up to the point where she declares, "You got me feeling emotions". Musically, it is a gospel and R&B heavily influenced by 1970s disco music and showcases Carey's upper range and extensive use of the whistle register. Emotions received positive reviews from music critics, who mainly praised Carey's vocal performance.

"Emotions" peaked at #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 Chart, U.S. Billboard Hot R&B Singles Chart, and U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Chart in the Autumn of 1991.
