    What I loved about Whitney live is that she rarely sang the same version. She always threw in new runs and mixed things up.

      Her live versions often eclipsed her studio versions. She was in the spirit here just a minute back. You will hear it after the ending phrase a lot of gospel singers do this when they are really caught up as they say.

    NO ONE... I mean no one, this day and age, can outright, flat-foot SANG such a vocally complicated song and yet direct the band and moment like this woman. It's the combination of her voice, ear, beauty and sheer stage presence. And her band was SICK! I also like that we see some of her humanity here where she did kind of go off key during the second verse but somehow didn't let it phase her and managed to seamlessly cue to give her more in the monitor. And someone just pointed out recently... she never used in-ear monitors.

      @@TheRemixstress It's not a joke - it's a fact - which is why Franklin tops every music industry poll as the greatest voice in recording history - as well as being hailed as the greatest by just about every renowned singer in the pop world from the 1960s to the present day, every musician, every producer, every writer and critic - Franklin is revered and established and written into the history books as the greatest most influential and inspirational voice. Houston's output can never match Franklin's recordings - and Franklin's art form and stage presence leaves all others - including Houston - trailing in her wake. Franklin quite simply had a more beautifully toned, diverse, agile and bigger voice - with perfect phrasing - inimitable melisma and speed of vocal runs - and just all round artistic beauty and instinct and musicianship. Her talent is unmatched - Whitney said it and so did her moma - and so did every other great singer.
      There you go - some clarity and perspective for you.
