I was so loving her comeback. She looked and sounded great. People don't understand she still sang great. She developed vocal issues later meaning some days and performances were better than others
I just don't understand why people expect her to sound like she used to in the 80s!? Even without the drug use she wouldn't have sounded the same 💁🏻♀️
So beautiful that her cousin Dionne Warwick was there to support her! This had to be scary and hard at the same time. She knew her challenges at this point in her career and still pulled off a performance that, though not up to her legendary status, was still solid for this time in her life!
Jay Dee thank you for a nice opinion the rest of these cocksuckers alway talking about whitney houston you don't see there funking ass up on stage try to entertain or sing or dance she's in a better place now with the Lord I love you whitney
Yes she did a fabulous performance here. Check.out her performance in ITALY, Her voice sounded even better since she had cut down on that nicotine habit. I miss you my Queen. I will admire you for ever...😘😘
Even though classic Whitney was long gone and never to return, I remember just being so glad to see her on stage again looking healthy and fantastic! I just loved her so.
Great performance by The Voice. She seemed to really be happy here. The icing on the cake was seeing her hug her cousin Dionne Warwick in the audience. Must have felt like when she won her first of six Grammy's many years before when they embraced :)
Thank you God for lending us your wonder in this beauty for 48 years. So much admiration for this woman who has fought so many demons and still be this put together and brave the world. Rest In Peace, Whitney. Your legacy in music is eternal because it is God’s gift to the world.
She looked great, she had fun and I feel the performance was her wonderful passion to entertain. To perform like that is exhausting with the choreography, the singing, the wardrobes and trying to hit all your cues, oookay really! If she was sober or not NONE OF US WILL NEVER KNOW and its really not important. What I have learned WE LOVE EVERYONE FOR WHO THEY ARE AND NOT WHAT WE THINK THEY SHOULD BE LIKE! We have the choice to choose who we want to surround ourselves with but never look down on others because of shortcomings or lifestyles, He will be there for them. Just love them and wish them (the addicts) the best, WE EVENTUALLY GET IT!!! I miss Whitney too, the lost was devastating but its NOT MY PLACE TO JUDGE, she rests now...
Oh, I just Don't know exactly where to begin. I love Whitney, she was an amazing performer thanks to her beloved mother Cissy Houston, for sharing her daughter to the world. A love lost but for a brief moment, for Whitney and Miss. Cissy Houston will reunite once again.
She's a beautiful women who touched many hearts through her music nd i will never forget her!! A strong,hard working black phenomenal woman she is i luv u whitney and may u continue to r.i.p
+Christopher Nakov I wish somebody could sing like her....Unfortunately, I believe Whitney Houston was one of those once in a lifetime kind of talents and I am blessed and happy I witnessed and experienced her in mine. Like Michael Jackson, I am not sure if we will have greatness like this again.
The Queen has returned again in 2009 to touch the many hearts again through her music and trying again to revive her pop superstardom after battling with drug addiction and ex-husband Bobby Brown. RIP Queen 👑🎤
Whitney Fan I think they meant what would she sound like at this age without ever have been using drugs. Even with the best technique, her voice would've been different than what it was ten years prior.
I agree! People who have never touched drugs such as Barabra Streisandor Celine Dion both sound different then what they did in there prime. Still have strong voices but not what it use to be.The way Whitney use to sing live in concerts I believe that also played a part in the damage of her voice. Not resting and doing shows back to back in the 80's and 90's.
2009-2010 the problem she had was that one moment she could blow you away with her vocals and the other moment your like wtf is going on. She could still sing better than most but you just had to catch her on the right day. Lol I miss whitney voice and by now I'm sure she would have had another album out.
I second most of all the other comments... If only we could still have this darling with us...I personally having always been a huge fan and am just glad I have been alive at the same time.. did not care what she sounded like after all her struggles just to see her do her best enjoy herself and embrace us with her beautiful smile was and will always be enough...for me... Can you imagine how much brave she had to be knowing things had changed.... The lady did good. XXXXX Love you Nipp
We won tickets to this. It was performed the show before they announced the winner but they played this the night they announced the winner (Donny Osmond) on TV. When Whitney came down the stairs the first time she tripped a little so they ended up having to film the entire performance a second time. They had to sweep up all of those dollar bills, which must have taken at least 45 minutes. A lot of the celebrities that were in the front row had to leave so they moved everyone up to make it seem like more people were still there.
@@whitneysource Didn't seem to phase her much. She completed the performance but I guess it must have been something she, or the show's producers, couldn't overlook.
i love this performance, she was generally having fun here and i saw that beautiful smile of hers :) haha i love how dionne caught some of that money too, i knew i would have!
Her vocal technique might still have been there but her breath support was shut because of the devastated state of her lungs. I'm quite sure it was smoking (all kinds of it, basically inhaling fumes) that killed her voice and not the drugs themselves.
Her voice was improving though, I think at one point she got admitted to rehab and canceled out all drugs and did performances.. I just wished someone was there to guide Whitney through it all.
+J.Maxinta so true. And then you have singers like Tina Turner who weren't able to preserve theirs in later years because of vocal strain. I'm sure all of the rigorous hours she worked during the Ike & Tina days did nothing but overwork her voice. It's so sad when legends lose it. But thank god for the recorded audio to listen to for years to come.
I'm not sure, here. Of course, her voice has been affected by many things or substances. However, I believe the acoustics were a factor in this performance. The mic appeared to have been turned down, making her sound weak.
I don’t usually pay attention to this period of her singing but just to see her have smile and have fun is beautiful. She’s also ad libbing better than anyone and when she dances during the break 3:02 she moves like Diana Ross in the Chain Reaction video. Lovely.
Even though, it was so good to see & hear whitney, this performance was so heartbreaking to watch. Rest in peace Nippy. Voice aside, I'd give anything to have you back with us.
I know exactly what you mean. In retrospect we now know she was tired, her health dissipated Here, it is evident that she could not get a full breath (emphysema) I love her so she gave her all Whitney Houston 1963 - 2012 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
If you listen at 3:49 You the sheer power of Whitney she hit the note and hear tone and pitch is awesome. It is very difficult to sing a song that you recording in one range then have to hear the music which is new and breathe and keep time all because DWTS does want to pay the producers and studio royal and backend fees so they simply hire their own band and composer who changes the music from the original so that the DWTS Band can play at a fraction of the cost and not get sued no artist in the history has ever performed to their original musical composition it is always to the DWTS Verison and with Whitney freshly returning she need everything to be fimilar, shame on you Clive Davis for not sparing any expense for the Artist that and was Arista Records you will never have any artist do the things she did and make history like she did. Sing on for the Lord Whitney your true fans will forever love you for you and we prayed for you and accepted the Whitney who came back from fight with life. We love you Whitney E. Houston
She came out there FULL voice blowing! and hitting the notes. and then somewhere in the middle of that song she starts losing her voice, and by the end she was like voiceless. But she still put on a great show, and thank God her voice came back for later in the show.
Much love to Whitney 💖 I love this song... I always want to jump up & down & sing along to it. It always puts me in a good mood. Thank you Whitney 😍😍😍 ... fck off to all the haters. R.I.P
At least you always performed live Whitney on shows like this and in concerts unlike a lot of singers who never even had health issues they're just pure lazy unlike Whitney was Whitney was a vibe pure energy, Whitney was a real singer and performer as well!
Supposedly according to people who were there, they did two takes of this song. Answer me it sounds like they use the audio track from both, because there's two sets of live Whitney adlibs at certain parts of this.
She looked great. Good to see her hug Dionne Warwick - her family. And interesting to see Kate Linder who plays "Esther" on The Young & The Restless standing next to her. Wonder if their friends.
I never knew they were family wow! Her voice hear and later on sounds a little like Dionne actually I was thinking and that isn't suprising if they were related.
We didn’t cared how she sounded. We were just happy to see her back on stage having a great time. We had missed her for so long. RIP Queen.
I was so loving her comeback. She looked and sounded great. People don't understand she still sang great. She developed vocal issues later meaning some days and performances were better than others
So true what you Saïd.
I just don't understand why people expect her to sound like she used to in the 80s!? Even without the drug use she wouldn't have sounded the same 💁🏻♀️
Watching this for the 1st time in 2022 and all I can say is that I truly miss her 💔 God rest her soul

Absolutely beautiful and classy. Forever elegant! She was definitely having fun. Miss her terribly!! ❤❤
She never lost her beauty 😍
So beautiful that her cousin Dionne Warwick was there to support her! This had to be scary and hard at the same time. She knew her challenges at this point in her career and still pulled off a performance that, though not up to her legendary status, was still solid for this time in her life!
Dionne Warwick is her first cousin
oh come on, Whitney at her worst was a million times better than any of us at our best xxx

Whitney can do no wrong in my book!!! The very sight and sound of her is all I need! Love you Whitney and miss your beautiful music.
Omg that was so fucking adorable at the end of the performance Whitney gave Dion a big hug Whitney was so adorable
She can do no wrong in her performances. The dancers are great and giving her full support. Bravo.
The dancers were amazing ❤
Great performance by The Voice. She seemed to really be happy here. The icing on the cake was seeing her hug her cousin Dionne Warwick in the audience. Must have felt like when she won her first of six Grammy's many years before when they embraced :)
YES
I agree
Whitney has been & will always be my FAVORITE! no one will ever be able to sing like this beauty!!! miss you nippy!!
Say that!!!
I listen to her every day
same ;(
Thank you God for lending us your wonder in this beauty for 48 years. So much admiration for this woman who has fought so many demons and still be this put together and brave the world. Rest In Peace, Whitney. Your legacy in music is eternal because it is God’s gift to the world.
she was so very beautiful here, and she looked like she was having a ball!
I truly loved this woman and always will.
STILL MISSING U WHITNEY.....WHAT A PERFORMANCE!
You did what God sent you here to do! I'm still here listening in 2021. Miss you, Nippy. Rest Peacefully.🥰❤🙏

Venika Williams Very beautiful indeed, and an unmatched soul. Looking forward to another talent like Whitney.
+Christopher Nakov I wish somebody could sing like her....Unfortunately, I believe Whitney Houston was one of those once in a lifetime kind of talents and I am blessed and happy I witnessed and experienced her in mine. Like Michael Jackson, I am not sure if we will have greatness like this again.

Damn I’m crying!! I miss her
She seemed so happy and pumped for this performance! I think she was happy that she was gaining a successful comeback. Go Whitney.
If she sounds like this when she was well into 15 years of drugs, Then what would she sound like if she didn't. Amazing.
Probably would have sounded like she did from 1996-1999.
Whitney Fan I think they meant what would she sound like at this age without ever have been using drugs. Even with the best technique, her voice would've been different than what it was ten years prior.
I agree! People who have never touched drugs such as Barabra Streisandor Celine Dion both sound different then what they did in there prime.

Not resting and doing shows back to back in the 80's and 90's.
I love this song, it would have been great to hear Whitney sing it when her voice was at it's best, but this is still fantastic.
By drugs you mean cigarettes. Thats what fucked her voice even Clive Davis said it.
Still amazing I loved it because she looked unbelievably Stunning and had a great time I loved it
Even at her worst she still sounded truly awesome!. ^_^
Dione have always been supportive and proud of Whitney :)
2:40, she gave it her all.
2009-2010 the problem she had was that one moment she could blow you away with her vocals and the other moment your like wtf is going on. She could still sing better than most but you just had to catch her on the right day. Lol I miss whitney voice and by now I'm sure she would have had another album out.
She would've she was in the studio days before death. She had planned to stop smoking so they said the week she died. Makes me sad
Yes she had just talked with Clive about making another album
I second most of all the other comments... If only we could still have this darling with us...I personally having always been a huge fan and am just glad I have been alive at the same time.. did not care what she sounded like after all her struggles just to see her do her best enjoy herself and embrace us with her beautiful smile was and will always be enough...for me... Can you imagine how much brave she had to be knowing things had changed.... The lady did good. XXXXX Love you Nipp
She was an amazing black women.. That i will always love and miss. She is with the best of the best now.
greatest of all time
This woman looks STUNNING. So classy, always.
at least she really sings nothing about her was fake no lip syncing for this beautiful lady

How did Whitney react ?
@@whitneysource Didn't seem to phase her much. She completed the performance but I guess it must have been something she, or the show's producers, couldn't overlook.
@@SimmeringPotpourri thank you for sharing ! I put your comment on my Instagram @whitney_source
Those shoes!!!! Great performance
She was beautiful!
Miss her so much
How nice to see her out there having fun. Even when she didnr sound her best, she still sounded better than most. She was the best!
I love Whitney every performance am so happy Dionne was there to support her I love the kindred spirit.
i love this performance, she was generally having fun here and i saw that beautiful smile of hers :)
haha i love how dionne caught some of that money too, i knew i would have!
I miss you so much Whitney....

That is so true...
Her voice was improving though, I think at one point she got admitted to rehab and canceled out all drugs and did performances.. I just wished someone was there to guide Whitney through it all.
technique? where?

Got goosebumps with the glass curtain being lifted.
She was so happy! Reminded me of the night she won her first Grammy! The way Dionne and her bonded was the same.
Espectacular Whitney
She's simply beautiful and God bless her :-) she love's the lord and her family and true fan's.
its a shame to see a god given gift to be destroyed by drugs and a bad marriage.. RIP Whitney now your finally free..
I don’t usually pay attention to this period of her singing but just to see her have smile and have fun is beautiful. She’s also ad libbing better than anyone and when she dances during the break 3:02 she moves like Diana Ross in the Chain Reaction video. Lovely.
Her appereance changed so much from 2008 to 2009 , not in a bad way , but she just looked different , beloved baby rest in peace
WHITNEY HOUSTON IS THE BEST
I will always love Whitney❤️❤️.
She looked so beautiful.
This is awsome singing
I love how she ran to Dionne!
OUTSTANDING,,,,,WOW,WOW,,,WOW,,,,,
This LIVE performance is BETTER than the one on the X Factor UK 2013! R.I.P WHITNEY HOUSTON!
Even though, it was so good to see & hear whitney, this performance was so heartbreaking to watch. Rest in peace Nippy. Voice aside, I'd give anything to have you back with us.
I know exactly what you mean. In retrospect we now know she was tired, her health dissipated
Here, it is evident that she could not get a full breath (emphysema)
I love her so she gave her all

Whitney was ever the Best - better than more singers at now

Justice for Whitney houston
The greatest Entertainer all time.. Still listen your songs every time I driving.
i love this woman!
This is the last time you see her look her best in the last stages of her career.
I think she looked better 2 years later when she sang i look to you with Kim Barrell.
I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ONE OF A KIND. TRULY.
2018 and I listen Whitney live the better Singer of the world!!!❤️
Always in a Stiletto . So classy and elegant and beautiful.
Supposedly according to people who were there, they did two takes of this song. Answer me it sounds like they use the audio track from both, because there's two sets of live Whitney adlibs at certain parts of this.
2017
Love her for forever
She looked great. Good to see her hug Dionne Warwick - her family. And interesting to see Kate Linder who plays "Esther" on The Young & The Restless standing next to her. Wonder if their friends.
I never knew they were family wow! Her voice hear and later on sounds a little like Dionne actually I was thinking and that isn't suprising if they were related.
nota =10= muito bom!!!
Luv always! No matter what!
