Clinched I agree. Clive Davis “discovered” Whitney Houston when she was only 20 years old in 1983. She appeared on the Merv Griffin show that same year, that was one of her first public appearances. That was the performance that really launched her career.
that shows the realness of her character belonging to the most powerful female voice! Also shows how Gospel is rooted in her, cause it's all about Soul...
Whitney really is the gold standard for female singers. She had a womanly yet powerful, rich voice with a head voice as clear as crystal. Those belts though... so dark and emotive. RIP Nippy and happy birthday 🎂
I believe she was actually just getting over being sick at the time of this performance. She’s truly amazing and it’s such a tragedy that she’s no longer here.
Best live singer Of all time, by far. She has delivered untouchable live performances for 15 years (until 1995). ALWAYS singing live, And that’s why i respect her so much. Even when she wasn’t at her best, she sang live, showing profound respect for her audience. Amazing artist. RIP.
I love that Whitney would always change up the melody when she would sing live. So every performance was so interesting and colourful! She was such a Queen 👸🏽 I love your videos by the way! I always enjoy watching them! 🙋🏽🙌🏽 Xx
That's what i dislike actually... When artists change up the way they sing a song i came to hear live and LIVE for the song, and they throw a curve ball like that
@10 out of 10 they do that to make the performance more interesting and enjoyable for them imagine singing the same song exactly the same way for years on end it would be incredibly boring for the performer.
Not sure there will ever be another Whitney. It was just the depth and power but she never had to scream. She had perfect vocal control with natural power and feeling.
A vocal coach usually talks too much when reacting to a singer . But she couldn't say anything because she was mesmerised by Whitney Houston just like rest of the world . Haha I love her .
Georgina, you should consider at some stage to react to this one (link provided), live at the 1994 American Music Awards medley of "I Loves You, Porgy - And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going - I Have Nothing". The video only has 70,000 views and was uploaded 2 months ago but the original had millions of views and was taken down a few years ago upon the request of Whitney's people. Then it was re-uploaded again and again by multiple users using split screens to avoid UA-cam's detecting software that will automatically block the video but again all of those videos were taken down after a few months or so. And the original video had Whitney's husband (Bobby Brown) holding their daughter (a very young Bobbi Kristina) and nearly falling out from his seat during a climax of the performance.....but the many re-upload split screen versions had this scene CUT OUT. I don't know what is wrong with Whitney's estate but they really don't want this video to be viewed by the public. I am guessing this upload (also in split screens) will not last and will be taken down again. I call this performance the second coming of Jesus performance and yes in this instance Jesus is a WOMAN! It is that good and the audio quality is much better than the one in this reaction. The body language is also sublimely regal...you could still react to it even though the split screen will be annoying but the vocal is the main focus isn't it? ua-cam.com/video/EGZAYzY_Zt4/v-deo.html
I literally just suggested that too! The old upload was up for a long time as I had it on my playlist, so fingers crossed the new upload with 4 images will stay up. I have never in my life heard such a live performance. Her gift was out of this world. I will love her forever.
Whitney Houston's mother, Cissy Houston, was a backup singer to Elvis Presley. And just before giving birth to Whitney in 1963 she formed the group Sweet Inspirations. In other words Whitney was involved in music almost from the second she was born.
I just love looking at the sheer delight on your face when you hear an excellent superb singer such as Witney. You can tell that singing is not just in your blood but in your soul.
Whitney's voice is a human treasure. Dead or alive, she is for sure the best female voice in music history. Whitney Houston was a born star. she was a gift from mother Nature The golden standard of a females voice. everyone wishes they could sound like her, men and women. The world's greatest singer. I Just wish she knew how special she was........
so many years i have been listening to this version. It is just remarkable. really no one could ever come close. We all have our favorites but anyone with a heart would understand Whitney is truly the greatest singer of all time. of all time. She moves me, makes me cry makes me feel all sorts of things.....
I ran into a group of Beyonce stans yesterday, they said Whitney wasn't relevant - never heard such delusional thing in my life! The thumbs down is probably from them! Whitney is a legend, she's the first black artist to sell three diamond - certified albums! She's truly missed 👑❤️
She’s so legendary. Her and Mariah? There will never be anyone like them again! Whitney’s head voice and mid belts were outstanding. Also, what happened to that video we saw was about to Premier last week?..... Mariah Carey’s the voice explained? It’s like it just disappeared
What a phenom and unbelievable performance. Georgina, I really enjoy hearing your perspective and explanations for how/why artists affect us with their songs!
November 2024 - this is one of my favorite reactions of yours. I keep coming back to it. Gosh, Whitney was amazing. This live performance is one of my faves. Her voice, hair, dress, even the lighting on her face - just gorgeous!
Hey Georgina, I hope that's how it is spelled, I love your videos. I'm no singer but I enjoy your technique descriptions and comments. Have learned a lot despite not being a singer hehe. KEEP IT UP!
Whitney was one of the few singers that could tell us a story so clearly through the art of singing, she didn't need special effects and back up singers to make her sound good, it was just her and her voice.
Whitney was probably the best vocalist known to human kind. Just raw musical talent that's something of the past now with autotune. No one compares to the soul she delivered. I'm so thankful I got to see her live on her last ever tour despite her vocal deterioration
Whitney was the best live female singer by far. She always sounded better live than her recordings. She never sang a song the same way twice. She was a master of improvisation. Georgina, it's so nice to see you reacting to Whitney instead of Mariah all the time.
That's exactly what she does when she sings...she tells a story and ur drawn in waiting for the end then when u reach the end u want more....i want more...yes her heart comes out thru her mouth...purely Angelic
Hello from Delhi Georgia, I recently watched this fascinating video 10+ times and here you are giving a reaction. Thank you so much. How Whitney moves the audience is so special.
La Houston in her prime days, No one will ever be as amazing as Whitney , not only her voice which is absolutely incredible but her whole performance is phenomenal. It will never get better then this, and I still mourn her loss.
For her many demons, that woman is the best and most natural singers EVER!!! Literally loving your channel this weekend... honest, knowledgeable without being cruel!! Xx
Whitney Houston, no backup singers, no dancers, no special effects, just one voice:
blows entire room away.
You can see and hear how the audience were shouting and getting on their feet the second half of the video just cuz of her voice
A GENIUS doesn't need this :)
Just like how Adele is, she has no dancers and she doesn't move either, tbh Adele and Whitney are both QUEENS of Pop!! Both doesn't need autotune!!
She lost her voice early. Sadly there was no other talent to fall to.
@@CJTheLyricalMaster Adele doesn’t sing pop to have dancers. Duuh.
Whitney Houston is the gold standard of singing, in my opinion. May she rest in Heaven. Her music will endure the test of time for decades to come.
She really was !👑
Facts!
Not decades... Millenia
The gold standard was set before she was recording.
Clinched I agree. Clive Davis “discovered” Whitney Houston when she was only 20 years old in 1983. She appeared on the Merv Griffin show that same year, that was one of her first public appearances. That was the performance that really launched her career.
In studio, she sing
On stage, she tell a story
She was in her element when she was on stage
EXCELLENT comparison !!!
Extraordinary observation! You're on point!
This is the best description I’ve ever heard of her performances… it’s so spot on man!!! Chapeau
The stage is definitely wear she shines!!
Whitney is one of the best IMPROVISER singer. She never sing a song the same and that makes every performances UNIQUE and SPECIAL. 👑.
That's she's the queen and unique
that shows the realness of her character belonging to the most powerful female voice! Also shows how Gospel is rooted in her, cause it's all about Soul...
The thing that gets me about Whitney is how effortless it seems, yet she has all that power. A true legend, gone too soon.
Her tone is just everything!!! She's a national treasure.
You mean global
Was Just thinking GLOBAL.... I'm clearly not the only one.!
Whitney really is the gold standard for female singers. She had a womanly yet powerful, rich voice with a head voice as clear as crystal. Those belts though... so dark and emotive.
RIP Nippy and happy birthday 🎂
I believe she was actually just getting over being sick at the time of this performance. She’s truly amazing and it’s such a tragedy that she’s no longer here.
I’m sure about that but I do believe she had just had a baby
yea this was a couple weeks after the 1993 portion of the bodyguard tour ended and in the later concerts she was sick during that
Youre corect. She suffered from chonic colds in 1993 and I believe it was simply because she was so over worked during that year.
@@mrvocal21 she was overworked for ten years tho
Yesterday was her birthday 😭😭😭 what a great loss but such a timeless treasure 💙💙
The POWER in her VOICE was just beyond this universe!!
With all due respect, you should really do more reactions to Whitney's live performances. She's the best.
I agree
Amen to that 🙌🏻
I think she would stop more if there was something to cretique: she think she's perfect too.. Because she was😍
Yes I agree
She only do Mariah Carey's
Best live singer Of all time, by far. She has delivered untouchable live performances for 15 years (until 1995). ALWAYS singing live, And that’s why i respect her so much. Even when she wasn’t at her best, she sang live, showing profound respect for her audience. Amazing artist. RIP.
Funny how singing live is seen as such an amazingly rare thing in pop music....sad thing
She had untouchable in 1996 too 1996 was an amazing year for her
I think....her GREATEST performace ever...but to be honest, I say that every time i watch her...
This was amazing but not her best
All the man that I need in 1991 was the best for me.
Legend!!! And she won 11 Billboard Awards that night !!
I love that Whitney would always change up the melody when she would sing live. So every performance was so interesting and colourful! She was such a Queen 👸🏽 I love your videos by the way! I always enjoy watching them! 🙋🏽🙌🏽 Xx
The Voice NEVER sang the same song the same way. Never! She was the greatest in so many levels
That's what i dislike actually... When artists change up the way they sing a song i came to hear live and LIVE for the song, and they throw a curve ball like that
@10 out of 10 they do that to make the performance more interesting and enjoyable for them imagine singing the same song exactly the same way for years on end it would be incredibly boring for the performer.
Watching this just really hits home what a legend she truly was/is and will be forever. That performance was EVERYTHING ❤️
This is the quintessential Whitney performance. She really was The Voice.
Not sure there will ever be another Whitney. It was just the depth and power but she never had to scream. She had perfect vocal control with natural power and feeling.
"I prefer, Whitney." - Madonna says in one interview.
The most amazing female vocalist of all time. Just a complete treasure. A+++++++++
OMGG THAT WAS AN INCREDIBLE VOCAL SHOWCASE!!!! What a LEGENDARY singer! That ending made me cry buckets😭❤️
A vocal coach usually talks too much when reacting to a singer . But she couldn't say anything because she was mesmerised by Whitney Houston just like rest of the world . Haha I love her .

She looked and sounded like a goddess that night
The copyright on that would tear the video down right away :/ her estate is very strict
I literally just suggested that too! The old upload was up for a long time as I had it on my playlist, so fingers crossed the new upload with 4 images will stay up. I have never in my life heard such a live performance. Her gift was out of this world. I will love her forever.
I highly recommend this please!❤
One of the greatest singers the world will ever know.
She is WEARING that red dress!
Pop Land I love your videos I've seen many of them ♥️
@@prayagagarwal5030 Thanks for that! Boosted my afternoon

My goodness I miss this woman so much!!!!!!!
Her voice just soared, it's truly incredible.
She has the trait of the LEO confidents strength and she owns the spotlight powerful.
There are no words in my vocabulary to describe this. I can only call her "The Voice"
I just love looking at the sheer delight on your face when you hear an excellent superb singer such as Witney. You can tell that singing is not just in your blood but in your soul.
The absolute Voice. The Queen 👑
Whitney's voice is a human treasure.
Dead or alive, she is for sure the best female voice in music history.
Whitney Houston was a born star. she was a gift from mother Nature The golden standard of a females voice. everyone wishes they could sound like her, men and women. The world's greatest singer. I Just wish she knew how special she was........
Thank you so much Georgina for reacting to the great Miss Houston!!!! I was waiting for It!!!
Whitney definitely was a force 💃
Greatest singer ever no one compares to what she could do with her voice!
Superstars always rise to the top. Still miss her to this day. Incredible 💕
No other singer, male or female, can compare!
I’m still grieving the loss of this incredible talent. I can’t even listen to one of her songs without getting chills. Rest in peace, darling girl.
so many years i have been listening to this version. It is just remarkable. really no one could ever come close. We all have our favorites but anyone with a heart would understand Whitney is truly the greatest singer of all time. of all time. She moves me, makes me cry makes me feel all sorts of things.....
Legendary vocalist
Simply amazing after all this time still react with goose bumps!
Tears. She’s so amazing.
That was a brilliant tribute, what a lovely way to remember "The Voice" wonderful, wonderful Whitney Houston. I wish she was here too, miss her ❤️
Just absolutely stunning 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
When I picture or imagine an angel singing, this is what comes to mind. Because when Whitney sings her heart and soul shine through. What a talent
I was lucky to.see her perform.live in Toronto Canada yrs ago..just beautiful
I ran into a group of Beyonce stans yesterday, they said Whitney wasn't relevant - never heard such delusional thing in my life! The thumbs down is probably from them! Whitney is a legend, she's the first black artist to sell three diamond - certified albums! She's truly missed 👑❤️

Same question!
the video was premiered then removed but im not sure why i think the edit was wrong or something? i thought the video was good
Back in the day when artists were unique; not a copy/paste of one another. Happy heavenly birthday, Whitney!
Happy birthday Whitney RIP💐🙏😥
Love your excitement in this video! Whitney is 😍
She was unreal, do more Whitney videos
What a phenom and unbelievable performance. Georgina, I really enjoy hearing your perspective and explanations for how/why artists affect us with their songs!

This is so much better than the video version.
Whitney Houston is the voice😭😭♥️
Queen. That's what she was.
I will always love Whitney
this is my favourite Whitney song and one my fav performances of her killing it!
I'm yet to hear a singer that is as technically good as Whitney, her ability and talent was in a league of her own.
Her add libs in every song she sang live were just phenomenal. Personally, I like her 1988 Wembley's performance on "He, I Believe".
Whitney is so Gorgeous. Best female vocalist that ever lived.
Whitney was probably the best vocalist known to human kind. Just raw musical talent that's something of the past now with autotune. No one compares to the soul she delivered. I'm so thankful I got to see her live on her last ever tour despite her vocal deterioration

Her voice is beyond phenomenal, so upset this voice no longer exists 😞😞😞😞
Always and forever Whitney! More!!
Very few singers can control an audience and their reaction by their vocals.
No singer will
ever compare to
her ❤️
This is my favorite song too. Its thrilling. We'd love to see more reactions to Whitney's performances.
What a beautiful opener!!!
She takes me to another dimension, feel like I'm on the moon. Still one of my favourites singers/voices of all time
Whritney made it look easy, how, who, does that? It was as if she was holding back!
Just so mesmerizing!
That's exactly what she does when she sings...she tells a story and ur drawn in waiting for the end then when u reach the end u want more....i want more...yes her heart comes out thru her mouth...purely Angelic
100% talent. Strong Voice.
Couldn’t agree more x
Hello from Delhi Georgia, I recently watched this fascinating video 10+ times and here you are giving a reaction. Thank you so much. How Whitney moves the audience is so special.
Perfection!!! Unbelievable!!!
she was amazing and that voice.... just amazing! So sad she left us... RIP Diva.
She always sings differently from the studio.
I really appreciate this video! I love seeing you react to the Voice! Hopefully there’s more to come!
Incredible voice
La Houston in her prime days, No one will ever be as amazing as Whitney , not only her voice which is absolutely incredible but her whole performance is phenomenal. It will never get better then this, and I still mourn her loss.
A true legend. I'm so sad that the choices she made affected the longevity of her career and life. Her memory and voice will live on forever!❤️
THE QUEEN❤️
For her many demons, that woman is the best and most natural singers EVER!!! Literally loving your channel this weekend... honest, knowledgeable without being cruel!! Xx
If u doubt in higher powers ....one just came through you in this song... Whitney is the QUEEN!!!
Incredible. It must be such a rush performing on stage whilst being supported by an orchestra. Really makes me wish I could sing. ❤️ Whitney
My favorite live performance by Whitney
Honestly how can you explain such talent.. ? It's like trying to describe the Sixtine chapel, it's just a miracle 🌟
Winner,a true Diva
