This was a CHILD. Performing live. By herself. With NO backup or music. Vocally better & with more grace than most national anthems by famous artists today, who pull out EVERY STUNT when they do it..... yet this is underrated. It just says alot about the world. In general.
I like how she kept it short and sweet, and didn't spend all day on one word. But I am surprised by her strong vocal abilities. It was very rare she would show case her strong sometime vocals.
wwenewyork same.... Aaliyah voice is so clear just like Whitney Houston's, Whitney was going to be Aaliyahs mentor so Aaliyah was basically about to rule the world
That's my girl! Liyah's killing it here & she was only 16 at the time. Anybody who say my girl can't sing can sit down, stfu and eat their words while they watch this video.
She has soul in her voice. She was also known for her breathiness which was distinct and added to her earlier mysterious/laid bk persona. You can hear it in At Your Best, Journey to the Past, Age Aint Nothin' and I Don't Wanna. She has voice control here, especially at the end. Aaliyah had a style/persona that set her far apart from other artists, no one was or is similiar. 90s, early 2000s artists seemed have their own distinct persona like wrestlers (ie DMX, Da Brat, Missy etc). Some artists today dress or sound similiar or they tend to sing in the same key on every song.
She sounded good. It's funny because she is one of the singers with the softer, prettier voices that "some" people are always saying that they can't sing. Other examples are Ashanti and Janet Jackson. They all have nice voices, but they don't have those "big" voices like Whitney, Aretha, Patti Labelle. Having a softer voice does NOT mean you can't sing. Aaliyah had great control here, a nice tone and delivery. Purely speaking of vocals only, she was probably a better "singer" than Ashanti or Janet. Although Janet Jackson is an awesome overall performer.
Amen to that... Ppl are so closed minded, they think being a singer means you only belt out songs. I was in a semi-debate about this on Facebook recently, some posted: Name female singers who can't sing and two ppl said, Janet! As a Janet fan not only was I pissed I was annoyed. half the time ppl saying certain professional singers can't sing really don't know a thing about what it takes to be a damn singer I really hate stupid ppl.
I have a soft voice like my fellow Capricorn miss Aaliyah. I appreciate this comment so sooooo much!!!! I hate it it when ppl say Janet can't sing. Like everyone wasn't meant to have the same singing voice. Smh
I just found out on FB that Aaliyah made it to number 40 at 200 greatest singers of all time from Rolling Stone Magazine!!! Considering she wasn't around that long, that's awesome! She cracked the top 40.
plz remember she was super young n not hiding behind a group to harmonize with...on top of the fact that she usually sung in a soft falsetto, never power house. U GO GURL!
How she outdo Ciara at 15 and Ciara in her thirties ... and they swore Ciara was the next Aaliyah. There is only one Aaliyah. And this performance gets me emotional, R.I.P.
She would have been a vocal beast if this voicehad matured....the perfect light soprano with an impressive low extension....at this age she did t have the power or experience....butwith time that would have no doubt come to enrich her vocals. At the age of 15 she effortlessly shows range and dynamic control many things Beyoncé lacked at this age.
NATsoHIGH ! Deadass I hate when people say “what where you doing” BITCH what was expected of me. People think if you aren’t famous that you aren’t important. Don’t get me wrong I think Aaliyah is the definition of gorgeous but mama wasn’t exactly the gold standard of vocals EVER
Aaliyah was pitchy and flat all through that thing. Perfect pitch my @$$. P.S.- I don't want to hear she was only 16. Go look at Whitney at 12 or Beyonce at 16. Hell.. go look at Beyonce at 12.
@@jaeprod3432 - I don't want to hear all that posthumous exaggerated praise. It was what it was. See my initial comments for reminders of what it was. 💩🚮🗑
cutie pie yeah u have no fuckin ears obviously. Probably dont have a singin bone in you. I come from a family if vocalist nd what ur sayin is disrespect nd insulting my intelligence. Its cool though. Idiots gonna be idiots. It is what it is.
she had so much power in her voice when she sang "free" and her low notes were untouchable. It was amazing to see this side of her voice because in all her music she mainly sings in head voice and really low notes. If she was still alive i bet her voice would have evolved and it would have been so strong!!
For some reason it don't matter what hater people say, I just don't hear it. It's so patently obvious to anyone that this girl was a gift from above. She still illuminates my life and inspires even with the challenge of no longer being here. In a strange way her live performances are a whole different kind of magic. The songs are like little faberge eggs and then you watch her live, you see the magic that is solely hers. It's hard to describe but you see her soul and what makes her unique. We all have that in our own way, but she just knew what she was doing here and took life for everything she could and didn't deny herself any experience. I wish we all could know ourselves the way she did. I miss her loads, what a talent and beauty
Beautiful voice!! And she was a teenager here. I can only imagine how much her voice would've grown by now. At 34 years old, her voice would be amazing.
Wish she would have gotten the chance to sing this one last time but as a young adult, because her voice was maturing beautifully and hasn't reach it's full potential. May our GOD give her much peace and sweet rest 👼
*applauds* Aaliyah didn't sing like this cause she didn't want too. Not cause she couldn't. People discredit her every chance they get but she didn't care. Her goal was to do the complete *OPPOSITE* of the typical singer. *Singing high notes*. Every artist you know is known for singing high, no sense of variety, but when you come to Aaliyah you automatically know. Her alongside *Sade, T-Boz, Janet & Toni Braxton* have thee most *"unique"* voices in our culture. She never focused on fame, yeah she knew it came with the territory but she preferred to take the risk of standing out instead of blending in *:)*
Talent is energy. No matter what voice u got, or acting skills, or writer, or theatre its energy coming from the presence. My favorite singer is Whitney Houston, whos known not only for the voice, but the skills, and ENERGY she possessed with her talent. Amy Winehouse didnt have high notes skills, but boy, she sang better than some singers... Aaliyah was GREAT and WONDERFUL singer, and dancer and actress... she was unique. Her voice was smooth, and soft and plus her dancing skills, and acting. Beyonce didnt posses this all pack and this energy Aaliyah had. Better voice yes, but overall.. NO... Energy, guys.. energy!
Although the US is not my home, it is where I live. So respect is due to the National Anthem. Aaliyah did her MOST singing it at the '95 NBA All Star Game!!! Well done BabyGurl!!! Salaam
Aaliyah was always a great vocalist, better than many of her peers at the time. Her tone was classy and unique. And her delivery (style) was unique. Control was top-tier. Aaliyah was one of the greatest vocalists ever to live.
Aaliyah didnt show off all her range in her own songs often but we all know sis had a voice and when someone says Aaliyah could sing but not “sang” i always bust out this video and collect an apology after they listen💯 R.I.P. Aaliyah we miss you much
Aaliyah was so beautiful. She did her best here and definitely outsang me here. She will always be loved and always missed. Truly an angel from above RIP baby girl.
@exysness it was live tho. Beyonce didn't do this live when she started her career. That says Aaliyah was a real artist. Who cares about nerves. It sounded good-live plus she was only 16. Nobody will ever be Whitney
Yes I believe Dionne Warwick said she was surprised by her vocal abilities because all Aaliyah would often stick to a lower register or her falsetto. She said she needed to learn to trust her voice .
On her first album, the song "street thing", at the end, show cases this vocal ability. If you've never heard it, I'd say listen do it. She does a similar long hold note at the end of that song.
I feel u I got ur back 😭😭we want to let go of the pain we feel inside but we can't fo get any thing about her now even tho I came in04 I still miss her soo aaliyah if u can c want I'm texting (I know it sounds stupid) R.I.Pour true😇😇 baby girl Aaliyah
I think what makes this so impressive is the fact she was only like 15 or 16 when she did this and sound better than the ones who are older that sing this 💯💯 and i love how she put her own twist to it but still kept the traditional way at the same time
16 YEARS OLD SMH ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! I BARELY KNEW THE WORDS LOL AT 16! ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! COMPOSURE POISE AND SKILL! REST IN ETERNAL PEACE AND PARADISE QUEEN AALIYAH! YOUR SPIRIT AND SONG LIVES ON!
So I'm listening in to my 4th graders online class today and out of nowhere i hear the anthem by Whitney Houston.. The teacher then says extra credit for those who find another version by someone they like. Also my son has a girl in his class named Aaliyah who the teacher can NEVER pronounce her name...i'm playing this for her so maybe she can remember the poor girls name now haha Aaliyah has a beautiful voice and i miss the 90s R&B style so much is lost these days.

Exactly!!!! She was doing her thing way before these now artists was thought of..n trying to be where aaliyah already accomplished
Hey man. Hope all is well with you.
Dudebro13454 Bro Okay , everyone is entitled to their opinion.
I had to rewind this a few times. She had a very powerful voice, especially at 16. Imagine her at 37 singing this.
Don't make us cry
37 she was only 21 when she died?
22*
I love your picture!!
Jerome Holloman she would be 37 today is what she was saying
This was a CHILD. Performing live. By herself. With NO backup or music. Vocally better & with more grace than most national anthems by famous artists today, who pull out EVERY STUNT when they do it..... yet this is underrated. It just says alot about the world. In general.
Thank you.
When people insist that Aaliyah couldn't sing I direct them here.
U KNOW!!!!
Geena H and lets not forget she was only 16 here
Geena H but everyone knows Aaliyah could sing, danced, and acted.
For proof?
Geena H istg whoever said that is dumb
This is called live vocals people! !!..not prerecorded, no lip syncing. ..just good Ole fashion breathy live good ass vocals. .and she was only 16!!..

AMEN AMEN..#LOL!!!😇💯💥🤎💫✅💦
When she 1st came out, her first album, the song street thing, that song made me realize she had stronger vocal capabilities.
My favorite National Anthem performances are Aaliyah and Whitney Houston's.
wwenewyork minez too

Monica Morrow ummmm no 😒....😩😂😂
Don't doubt Aaliyah. You can say what you wanna say. Girl can sing. Stop hating and may she rest in peace.
I love the run on "home" at 1:47. Great Rendition
Yes, the run on home was the best part...it was just like her to add a spin to it...
yea that part on the home was good! i love her voice always been one of my favs. miss her!😇
Sarena S Yessss !!! :)
+classicstorm it was not a spin it was only cause she couldn't hit that note lol yall are delusional
+LIO VASQUEZ Ahaha I think you are...stop hating it's not a job or special skill plenty of people do...
And they say she couldn't hit high notes...
she went from a E3 (oooh oh "say"...) to very powerful B4's to the high E5!!! yassss
OMG! 1:47 was beautiful! To be only 16, she gave a pretty strong vocal.
anjelheaven yessssss she dope
She has amazing control over her voice, omg

Aaliyah had a strong, beautiful voice. I will be a fan for life. Gone way to soon. Rest In Peace babygirl

Not better than Whitney's

You mean falsetto and low notes?! She hardly sung in head voice. People get falsetto confused with head voice. And they are not the same!
Aaliyah could always sing like this! She chose to sing in the airy falsetto voice but she could blow if she wanted to.
