    Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
    I wanna feel the heat with somebody
    Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody

    Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody
    With somebody who loves me

    She didn’t need hundreds dancers or fireworks, just her voice, a microphone and her huge stage presence. She was phenomenal 👏🏾👏🏾

      Goodness gracious. thankfully, by God! Peace of God, needed,
      the song, "I Wanna Dance with Somebody," does bring back memories. Remember the pyrotechniques, to portray how big a star Rachel Maron is in the film, "The Body Guard," because your comment of not needing "fireworks," inspired that memory.
      By being one believer of believers,
      by the Name of one true Eternal God Creator! Lord of in Heaven and on earth,
      that, ubiquitously known, "In the beginning God..," Genesis 1.
      Myself, has the pen name, Jon Cithisen, because it is clean and kosher. Of course, just simplistic truth, Whitney E. Houston is not like Rachel Moron, but did an excellent pursuit of honorably portraying, someone deeply concerned first and foremost for Fletcher the young boy in that film, "The Body Guard."
      Did you notice it is a type of romance 'novel," not too representative of either the household and professional security body guards, or the special ops, to protect dignitaries like a president of these United States of America?
      However, somehow, the professional security gentleman with the deep resonating calm steady voice, did eventually hire, "funny man," *Alexander Graham Bell* as if the professional security was not on the ball. A special case of a possible unknown professional hit man or woman, is not reflective of the security of a top name professional singer portrayed, Rachel Maron, just true.
      First of all, he does not even desire the opportunity and turns down $2k, then at $3k per day, he takes the job, somewhat down in the dumps, touting his professionalism a little, hey he took the offer.
      He seemed over confident from the get go. Maybe he needed to retire from the "special ops," part of security, God Only Knows.
      He steps out, knowing a stalker could be a plausible unknown subject, "un-sub," person of interest, professional or not, could eventually be a shooter, sniper or some other professional hit on threatened Rachel Maron, who honorable did harmony is singing professionally, a top name as portrayed. So, in real life, the role, "Frank Farmer," Kevin Cosner, no reflection on him, for he did pursue Whitney E Houston for two years to do the role. And I truly remember, he did say something regarding, keep the cameras rolling, *before* the deal had been complete, I think, from how a recall an interview, in that seen of Fletcher playing with a toy but sharp good boat. So, at IMDb.com I just looked up, "Devaney," played by, honorable thespian Bill Cobbs,
      came out of the house, at that occasion,
      and re-requested "Frank Farmer," played by honorable movie thespian, director, musician producer Kevin Costner, long in the entertainment industry, - that is for the job of extra like "special ops," security body guard, former Secret Service to take the opportunity, and yes, each of us knows, he did take the job.
      Okay, the excellent security in place, did need the extra help, because of the extreme threat to life and limb. So, how come "Frank Farmer," after the household and profession production crew, including security got acquainted, and "Frank Farmer" warmed up to "Rachel Moron," he had so much time to "moon" like a sophomoric high schooler, view videos, instead of getting in touch with contacts of needed releasable to him, "Frank Farmer?" He could have done some extra grounds checking, parameter of the house, and after the boat explosion, thank God, the unknown subject seemed to just want to rattle those of the household, and Fletcher did not be harmed. So, zero trace of someone on the property, perhaps a "redacted" liaison with the FBI, who could have been contacted, not being obvious of search of forensic evidence subsequent to the boat explosion.
      Not only that, DNA evidence of, knowing so by the portrayal of substance of unspeakable could be nature on a bed, and "Rachel Maron," did exclaim, in Godly indignation, deeply concerned, *somebody was in my house!?"
      Being in security, by 12 years total, and 10 years Security Officer certified to keep license, I did learn a lot regarding security. In reporting, no, that is zero embellishing by opinion. Yes, the inclusion of one's own perspective, but never embellish someone's testimony, and only report physical evidence, do not disturb physical evidence, unless it is a public safety immediate problem.
      So, yes not an officer, protect and serve, justly peace keeping, officer of the court and law, but have had numerous needed conversations with those professional, yes, police, however, licensed in various capacities. And the needed kept to only being a concierge professional, relating to folk of venues in so numerous of capacities, including guests who attended conventions and entertainment recreational shows, mostly on stage. Thank God, the few occasions of irate customers putting folk in danger, like blocking egress lanes, thereby the fire marshal does keep guidelines on each event. On rare occasions, locking arms to protect performers, stage hands, other personnel, and equipment on stage or other places,
      being bum rushed, it not a pleasant, but oil of gladness, by God's favored, rest, blessing, of The Good News of exceedingly great joy, God's Goodwill toward humanity, The Holy Spirit only Hearing, God's Sealed Divine Revelation, now 2000 years ago, never leaving orphaned, thereby, God's favor rests on God Is Only Impartial Ever Continuing Observer, and only Omniscient One, having God's favor rests, the gift of God's grace on only whom God is pleased;-
      thereby, thanks be to God for the happy circumstance, I was never physically struck. No comment on verbal abuse, but kept cool in regards to that by needed help of The Promised Helper, Spirit Of Truth, The Holy Spirit, thereby, the cloud of God, Who having the Voice Of God, did rest on The Ark of The Covenant, then rested in The Good News, Gospels, on the Mt of Transfiguration, Tells, of God's only begotten Son, Jesus Christ Priest & Faithful and True Of God, in regards to God's Word unlike the grasses and flowers that grow and fade, The Word Of God in the one true, The Holy Bible stands forever, ref Book of Isaiah 40:8, The Voice Of God, from the cloud of God Tells, this is My beloved Son, hear him!
      Each and everyone knows there is One God Eternal Creator Lord, so, in Creation, no one is the only begotten Son of God, except then Ascended into Heaven, Jesus Beloved Christ Of God.
      By God's Impartial Benevolent Justice Of Compassion, God's Righteousness in Creation like rolling rivers, ref Book of the prophet Amos, and "I Have A Dream," commemorated precisely three months ago, Aug 28th, 2022, by MLK jr, Evangelist he reported, and that is on the Wikipedia article, such is this quote, "Before I was a civil rights leader, I was a preacher of the Gospel. This was my first calling and it still remains my greatest commitment. You know, actually all that I do in civil rights I do because I consider it a part of my ministry."

    Whitney Houston will forever be one of the greatest vocalists of all times. Whitney could never replaced or duplicated. The media used to always scrutinized and judged Whitney for how she lived her life. But let's be real all of ours greats have had troubled lives offstage i.e. Marvin Gaye, i.e. Sam Cooke, i.e. James Brown, i.e. Jackie Wilson. But their personal lives never took away from the fact that they was great entertainers. They all had their share of issues and struggles that they was dealing with offstage, but onstage that didn't matter. Whitney's legacy will forever live on.

      theblueangel28 Agreed, I would included Linda and Donna ... but I sure wouldn't mention Madonna or Cher as great singers. I do wish people that were not around for say 80's, would stop acting like they were and know what was going on at the time. Houston came out when MTV was taking off... as did Madonna and Janet. It help them build huge careers. But back in the 80's we still had Streisand, Summer, Ronstadt, Franklin, still recording and with great R & B vocalist like Patti Labelle, Karyn White, Vesta Williams, Mikki Howard, Regina Belle, Anita Baker and in Pop/Rock Annie Lennox, Ann Wilson, Pat Benatar, Taylor Dayne etc... so when I here people now, or read article written now about the 80's, and they try to act like these other women didn't exist, or that Houston was better then the pack. I know it's almost a certainly that they weren't around, and that not only is it not true; it is completely inflammatory. The 80's were truly the last great decade with a lot of great singers around. Her legend might have grown over the years, but facts are facts.. and history can't be re-written.

How do you have all that and stay humble? I love that she often gave God credit for her talent and success. Whitney's vibrato exceeds everyone else in the whole Top 40 music landscape. Her vocal style, power, and control were more like that of a trained opera singer than a pop singer.
    I saw her live a few times and her shows were mostly like this...with just her dancing around on the stage by herself and singing the songs. She had the audience screaming all through the show, every show. Arista never needed to do much to promote her career. She was simply...Whitney---an exceptionally blessed and gifted woman!

      Her voice in her prime was beyond amazing, an unequaled. Hands down the best of the best.

    Wow. I'm a vocal coach and she has so much control and power in her voice. Unlike anyone now days who use technology to sound good

      kevin w None of them can have entire control of their voice and sound exactly like the record while live performing with the MIC ON. I’m not saying those girls cant sing but Whitney is in her own lane and should never be compared to children.

    i mean seriously, no gimmicks, no backup dancers, no flashy costumes, def no auto tune anything. Just the incredible magnitude of her talented voice with a microphone, backup singers, and the band! nothing else needed!

    A Whitney Houston only happens once in a lifetime. She didn’t need dancers because her voice was enough… more than enough to overwhelm us with joy and excitement.

    Her stage presence is by far the best in the world. She gets up there and delivers amazing and flawless vocals all while engaging with the crowd and dancing around. She was by far the best vocalist I have ever heard.

    Always sing a song differently each time you sing it in public . It was certainly a rule for Whitney ...
