Pete Ham e Tom Evans, da banda Badfinger, escreveram a canção, que foi lançada originalmente em 1970 no álbum No Dice.
Harry Nilsson gravou sua versão bem-sucedida em 1971, e Mariah Carey lançou a sua em 1994 como terceiro single do álbum Music Box.
A versão de Mariah Carey foi baseada na interpretação de Harry Nilsson, não na original do Badfinger.
Mariah Carey disse que decidiu gravar a música depois de ouvi-la em um restaurante, embora em Tóquio tenha mencionado ter ouvido a canção quando era criança.
David Browne, da Entertainment Weekly, descreveu a versão de Mariah Carey como um "remake cheio de dramaticidade baseado na hit de Nilsson".
"Without You" atingiu o número 3 na Billboard Hot 100 e ficou no top 40 por 21 semanas nos Estados Unidos.
No Reino Unido, foi o primeiro single de Mariah Carey a atingir o número 1, permanecendo nesta posição por quatro semanas consecutivas.
Na Suíça, "Without You" ficou dez semanas no topo das paradas, enquanto na Holanda liderou por doze semanas.
A música foi certificada platina na Alemanha e na Áustria pela IFPI, e ouro na Nova Zelândia pela RIANZ e na França pela SNEP.
"Without You" é um dos únicos dois singles de Mariah Carey certificados como ouro no Reino Unido, com vendas de 445.000 cópias.
