What also makes Whitney so special was the fact that she can stand there, sing AND gives us a performance! I remember a friend was like Whitney isn’t a performer she is a singer and I was like huhhh?? Her gestures, the eyes, the voice EVERYTHING she didn’t need to dance or dancers. It’s like she is dancing and singing with her voice and body alone all while standing in one spot. DYNAMIC!!!!
I agree totally! Whitney is a singer, not a performer. I have this conversation all the time discussing the differences between the two. All she needs is a microphone or not. Whitney is comfortable with a band or singing a cappella. How many singers of today can be counted that can sing with or without some form of background music and be totally comfortable doing so. I submit, not many.
Whitney was simply the best vocalist of all time. No gimmicks, tricks, whistle tricks, ear pieces gadgets, or back up dancers or singers depending. Just her standing there flat footed and out singing everyone. Straight up undeniable vocal control, power, superior stage presence and bird like vocals. She simply had a gift like no other. I wish she had realized it and had not taking it for granted.
I remember this performance. She stood there flat-footed and brought the whole house down! Like, take notes. I'm bout to give yall 3 full Olympic-type endurance performances!
If one is to summarise this performance I'd say in this performance Whitney understood fully well the assignment handed to her and then she executed it flawlessly and regally to perfection in every single nano second of sound she produced and every single minute physical gesture of her body language. She passed the assignment with flying colours and with the highest distinction possible. Whitney take a step forward and cement yourself in the annals of history of VOICE PERFORMANCE! The universe salutes you.......gladly and with deep gratitude.
This was such a beautiful analysis and tribute to Whitney. Thank you. I get so annoyed when people compare her to others. What sets her apart was that in her prime, Whitney was the best live singer. Period. No one else could touch her live. No one. She blew her studio recordings away.
100% noooo1 could touch her in her prime and even now many try to emulate her the ONLY 2 singers I give mad props and can come quite close but they will even tell u Whitney was their idol and she was the best is Miss Deborah Cox and Jennifer Hudson !
@@jmlegrairstudio Hi Jaron, can you analysis on Aretha's song called "No no (I'm losing you" live performance? The best G-5 of all times. Also Whitney Houston live version of "Saving All My Love" in Japan. Thank you and God bless.
I wasn’t aware how big these songs were until I watched the movie!! This performance goes down as one of her greatest performance!! And For me it was just something she did-it was no biggie to me. I was like yeah that just Whitney!! I absolutely love this video and this lady with all my heart!! Thank you again brother you definitely know your shit!!!! ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿 #whitneymania
Whitney came into that awards season as the highest selling female artist of all time both in albums and singles and the most awarded female artist of all time. Then she comes out and show everyone why. for. 10. minutes. The woman led the pack and left 1994 goated. 🐐
I remember seeing this performance and it was so beautiful that I cried tears of joy! There will never be another voice like Whitney Houston! Continue to rest easy sweet angel! Thank you Jaron for analyzing this iconic moment! ❤️ 😍 💖
People who don’t sing at a caliber that requires you to be this on center will never understand just how IN HER BAG she was this night. I’m Telling You is the best singers last song, Whitney put it in the middle of a set and then delivered one of her most captivating performances of I Have Nothing she ever did. There’s a point in the last half of that song where you see her face shift, like an athlete coming around the last curve of a 3200 meter race, the joy of enjoying that last stretch. You can see her enjoy her gift, enjoy the reaction to the mastery of her gift, the admiration and love, you see her drink it in and give it back. A truly beautiful moment, 10 minutes of straight, flat footed, center stage singing.
You know what?! I can honestly see her enjoying watching you analyze her singing this master class of a performance!!! This was insanely a lesson of an Olympic marathon of singing! From one second to 10 minutes. TEN FULL, STRAIGHT minutes of perfection! I love how much you broke down so much to this too because there are sooo many sectional courses to every second she sang here. A storyboard of sangin'!
Whitney's voice is like "come here...closer" Then she punches with a vocal fist wrapped in a velvet glove and leaves you stunned yet you come back for more! She is a master class in performance!! RIP Whitney 💔
This is my ALL TIME favorite single performance, EVER! She was honestly a beast at medleys like this. But on THIS night... Whitney got on that stage and showed her natural black behind! Hahahahaha! (You know what I wanna say, but I'm saved! lol) The fact that she pulled the audience into a full on ROUSING standing ovation in the middle of the performance... I cannot imagine the energy in that room! I literally would have been in tears! And I am so glad you pointed out how crazy difficult it was to do all three of these HUGE songs back to back! Like WHO is crazy enough to do that... and THEN kill it like THIS! INSANE! I really don't think we appreciated the gift we had in this woman. I wish the world was better to her. For her to give us THIS! I was amazed by this performance when she was alive, but now this literally seems not humanly possible! But this whole moment was a culmination of perfection! Whitney is clearly front and center... but the band!!!!! STRAIGHT FIRE!!!!! AND the camera men captured some BEAUTIFUL shots of her! Those close ups, especially that part where her eyes are closed and then she slowly opens them and looks up and around at the audience! MAGICAL!!! It's like she touched people with her eye contact. Like many said, this is a MASTERCLASS! I would love to be in a room to just have a complete discussion about this and just breaking it down. AGGHHHH there's SOOOO MUCH HERE!!!! I love and miss you Nippy!
Wow… just saw the movie today and was SO GLAD that this was the one performance that they included in its entirety! It’s kind of cool to see that it’s officially considered to be her top and possibly peak single performance. But also to learn that she thought Ricky Minor was insane to put these three songs together and told him I ain’t doing it… lol. But did she do it!!!
You can tell she was trained (probaly classically). I've always said Whitney figured out how to mesh classical & gospel vocal approaches together and sung over POP tracks. It was the perfect musical marriage.
Yes she did have classical training in late 70's and early 80's lol. She might of was training her Voice in 90's too and we did not know it. I think she lost her abilities when she stop training and focused too much on Bobby.
@@klion3924 she never lost her voice stop spreading rumors please. Her vocal coach said before her death he was training her voice and she was back ro 95% of her natural singing voice hitting high notes and belting he said she didn't stick with the training cause Clive sent her on tour and Whitney thought she could handle it he said had she continued her training put the cigarettes and alcohol down she would've been back to normal she also had heart disease which affected her breath support you can tell in her last performance she was always out of breath plus after she died they checked her vocal cords and said they were not damaged at all perfectly in shape so again that shows it was mainly her breath support and the lack of coaching that made her sound like that.
Dude as a vocal pedagogy masters student I am so glad to hear someone talk proper terminology like cricoid tilt and tongue root. So many reviews on UA-cam are just what people think and you did a great job of informing with proper scientific knowledge. Well done!
This Woman is the reason why I got into RnB, the reason why I got into Gospel, she made me understand and see why there is a God, every time she sung gospel she wasn’t just singing a song…. She had a testimony and you heard it in her voice, you saw it in her face, you felt it in your emotions and you felt her emotions. With everything that she has done, and sung…. SHE UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT AND ANNIHILATED IT AS A WHOLE!!! I am so grateful God for allowing me to be born in this generation where not only I was able to witness her amazing blessing, but the fact I was able to witness her becoming what we know her best to be THE VOICE!!! Anytime i feel a certain way, I can just listen to Whitney, she has dealt with heartache, degradation, she was used, neglected, she had to deal with not being herself when in all truth if she had the choice she would have been with Robyn…. I understand her. Her whole life is testimony, and though she isn’t here today to still bless us with her talented voice, she still till this day is helping ppl through her music, her movies, her interviews, she’s a whole vibe!!! What A blessing!!! Just imagine if she was still her today… she was already on her road to recovering and she would’ve made it too!!! Low self esteem and mental health is real!!! She felt that she could not do what she had already accomplished in the past and it affected her. No matter how big we are at the end of the day… we are still human. ❤
When people say they want to get “Back to me/ myself” This is Real We all have been in moments in life, striving to get to our highest self but not realizing we could be living in actual moment .. our personal prime time. It’s painful though when people compare you to your past self. I watched the movie and cried like a baby several times. Rest in paradise Whitney Houston 🕊️
This MEDLEY was some of the ILLEST shit ever done in person. HER VOICE NEVER CRACKED (30 years already. BK would be 30 this year)🤯🤯🤯27:00 That part….🖤💛🖤💛
Your run here SHOOK me! 19:25 🤣🤣🤣 You’re one of the only vocal analysts I watch because you can actually sing and demonstrate it in real time, and it sounds GREAT!
@@jmlegrairstudio I am still waiting on you to analyze these 3 performances: an audio of Whitney singing I Am Changing (San Francisco 1986), He, I Believe (either the video in Wembley or the audio in Japan 1990) and her singing One Song-the video quality is abysmal but her voice shines through.
The movie that just came out about Whitney “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” really made me love this performance so much more, because they showed that Whitney didn’t even wanna do it but she did it and did it well!!! The actress nailed the mannerisms when they recreated this performance too!
I watched it over the weekend. I've always loved this performance, but like yourself after watching the movie I truly appreciate this performance even more.
She had something that can’t be duplicated. Just effortless and angelic vocally but still full of character. It’s so pleasant to the ear. She always made you feel whatever she said. You always believed it.
In a perfect world, she’d be able to sit down with the likes of yourself and analyze these performances-I’d give anything to hear/see her first hand account of what went into preparing for these performances, what she felt in the moment, etc. Thanks a bunch for this analysis.
I remember this performance! How she sang these 3 songs back to back without a drink of water is impossible to me. My mouth and throat gets dry just watching her sing. It takes TALENT to pull this off.
THE GREATEST POP VOCALIST EVER The rich, dark, theatrical, classical, massive sound was her signature throughout her whole career it’s like listening to a storm or something. That’s why she’s called THE VOICE she had the best of it all and her style makes it even more beautiful.
@@Beytheevocalist. She arguably is The Best Pop vocalist if we take every aspects what make great singer GREAT. She may not be the best technical singer out there but overall she is cause singing isn’t just about technic even tho Whitney’s technic was impeccable. And she impacted the whole world and broke so many boundaries and records only with the beauty of her voice. No controversy or sexual selling was used. That’s why decades later people ( general public ) still call her the voice and is a the top of most people lists.
And that’s why she was the best singer on the planet! No competition. Finally Rolling Stone magazine has just about got it right with their latest revamp of the 200 greatest singers of all time list wherein Whitney places 2nd, right behind the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin. I think we should start calling Whitney “The Queen of Song.”
For over 10 minutes Whitney sang and she showed the world yet again why she’s THE VOICE. People need to understand Whitney’s version of And I Am Telling You was totally different from Jennifer Holidays. Let me explain why I say this…In Jennifer’s rendition she’s singing about how she wants to hang onto her lover/man and she is not going to let him go. When Whitney performed this song she was at the height of her career and her personal life…she was becoming a movie star after already being a music star, she had just had her baby and her marriage was pretty much in a great place. Her singing And I Am Telling You she’s telling the world that even though nobody wanted her to be with Bobby, she was not going to leave-she was going to stay and you (the world) are going to love me (her). Nobody could deny that she loved him during these times. You’re absolutely correct that Whitney on that nigh sang 3 different genres of music with ease and perfection.
@@odumosuolusegun2781 Hello buddy. You’re right. Have you seen the Celine fans making a huge fuss because she wasn’t listed on the greatest singers list by Rolling Stones?
@@jobuck879 Yes, but I feel she should be on the list definitely more than the fraudulent live singer.. They all have to stop putting Whitney with this girls though, it is insulting. The whole conversation is people even saying Whitney should be on top of Aretha. It would never happen in the US, even if many people think so. I understand and I am ok with Aretha put there. Internationally though people would put her ahead. She topped the UK list for greatest vocalist
@@odumosuolusegun2781 I agree, I mean to simply exclude Celine is a foolish thing. And of course we both know Whitney would top the list if they were to do global singers.
In the latest Whitney movie, there’s a scene where we see the musical arranger presenting her with this medley. She was like ..are you crazy? When am I supposed to breathe? She slaughtered this and you can see the victory in her smiles. But i kinda like the vulnerability in hearing that even she knew what a feat it would be. And she clearly knew it was an assignment that an Olympian like her could slay. All bow down! I’m glad she was in her prime for my generation! Won’t be another one like that. ❤❤
There are many great singers past & present, that being said she's the standard. She mastered the old & the new; jazz, R&B, Pop, gospel, opera & rock. She could do everything in all their forms.
This is one of my favorite performances of hers. One thing you better understand is that once Ms Whitney started sweating on her upper lip, it was over!! She was about to put in that work and blow your mind.🙌🏽💕🙌🏽💕
Can you please for 2023 share a video of your vocal range! Because damn I'm thinking you can keep up with the best of them! I adore you and your channel and so looking forward to your content this year! Miss Houston was an icon and my favorite singer! She literally taught a lot of us in our generation how to sing and I know we all studied her! God bless her forever and always.
I believe that Whitney was one of the only singers who knew how to go the difference ranges as she sang & it was part of her Gift as well bcuz most singers just get up their & they try to sing but Whitney add flavor spice pepper 🫑 &rich seasoning in her songs Sooo powerful!!
The difference between Whitney and other singers she breaths on you. She has so much soul she gives you her spirit and you feel it. Thanks for your knowledge on explaining how to interpret what we are hearing ♥
Quite simply the performance (one of many) that handed her the crown of greatest singer. She (according to her music Director) knew well how difficult this would be, had the confidence to mark every breath, register voice flip and understood that this performance would be a stellar moment that would long outlive her time on this earth. She knew how great this was, God Bless you Whitney - you left us the Greatest Gift of ALL. You remain the Queen for 40years - 100yrs will come soon enough.
It’s so crazy, the second you started saying she has the classical qualities in the way she sings, you started sounding EXACTLY like her. When you were talking about your classical tenor days. So cool. That’s exactly what the quality is and I’ve never been able to figure out what it was.
The end of this performance always makes me cry because I'm so amazed at her talent and it makes me sad she is gone physically. Wow, what an angel on Earth and a gift! 😢❤
Well, we call her The Voice for a reason! She is the best to ever do it in my book. Her tone, delivery, diction, notes leading up to her climax& high notes were everything. She gave us gospel, pop, rock, R&B, jazz, and opera. Even in her later years, that unmistakable tone was still there. Nippy shall forever be #1 in my book!!
I think the way she articulates is like British. Very southern British, how they would say posh southern British people speak. Every word is clearly finished. That's part of why she was huge world wide. Her vocal delivery transcended globally and introduced her to different audiences in my opinion.
Ms. Houston delivered a perfect performance! It wasn't just that her vocals were incomparable. Her whole presentation is unmatched. In a talentless world that worships trash, she still stands out as a standard bearer of class, style, dignity, and talent that is truly proof of the existence of God. While today's performances are more suited for strip clubs and brothels with people wearing more makeup than a clown, we were given this gift from above. She stood before the audience, resplendent, covered head to toe in a classic gown which featured a most complimentary blue tone and modest sequins. She wore limited makeup, which, although not even necessary, perfectly displayed her elegant facial features. Her hair was perfectly made in an almost regal crown for her. She then seduced the crowd with her expressive eyes and tone. We are all privileged to witness this iconic and perfect marriage of beauty and talent. God bless you, Ms. Houston!
Of all the so called "voice teacher's videos" I've watched, this is the best reaction so far. You comment and show, and explain anything we need to know about vocal. Bravo
Whitney is my number one female singer. Missed her so much. Gone too soon 😢 😪 💔. She can never be replaced for me. Michael Jackson is my favorite male singer 🥲💔.Awesome vocalist 💖. Jaron, your the best!🤗👏❤. I'm glad I found your channel.
My ❤ ~ I remember when this first aired. I watched it over & over for months. I know this from beginning to end. Every note, adlib, head turn, and finger snap. There will NEVER be another Nippy❤ 🕊️ 🎶 ❤
She was a star ⭐️ her voice beauty and classy style no one can touch, I really loved her sooo much, I couldn’t even watch her after she pass because I would get so sad, this young was a true gem rip my angle ❤🎉truly misses her
You are soooooo refreshing. Your critiques are over my musical aptitude HOWEVER I love listening and then watching techniques for my favorite artists. Nippy was my baby! Never duplicated often complimented by "others reaching" albeit failing to match her blessed gift!!! I enjoy these. Thank you
She was simply the best. Whitney had a beautiful voice, was technically perfect but her best quality was she had the ability to make you believe she meant every word she sang! My favorite singer forever!
This is my all time favorite live performance that I have ever witnessed. Every time I watch it I get chills and teary eyed. Whitney is my favorite female singer and I miss her. Keep resting in heavenly peace sweet angel 👼🏾
I went to her Super Bowl 91 national anthem and then I wonder if you did a vocal breakdown on that and you did. Then as I watched that I said I wonder if he did one on this performance right here. I scrolled down a few as you talked about her national anthem performance and bam here got the other performance I was thinking of I’m in Whitney heaven!!!! Yaaaas!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Let's keep in mind she did this performance while in the middle of a world tour. She had already done over 60 dates by the time she performed this. I'm still amazed how she was able to do this night after night.
Many can sing and do alot of technical stuff but this is when whitney houston went supersonic for me. She could no longer be categorised in any genre but the genre of the VOICE haha. Beyond amazing
It's the soul, it's her effortless quality, the freedom in her, to not think about what to do next but just open the mouth and sing. Seeing a singer at ease is so enjoyable. Whitney and Fairouz are songbirds that people are always drawn too.
thank you so much for doing so much justice to the greatest vocalist of all times. Every musician out there, specially us singers, are in the prescence of a MASTER CLASS each time she was standing in front of that mic, even in her challenging times. Loved your analysis!!! Much love for your channel 🥰🥰🥰🥰
ALL OF This!! That even in her trying time had me even more emotional!! Just graceful in times of fire that made her that much more AMAZZING!! NOBODY NO ONE EVER THERE’LL ONLY BE ONE MS WHITNEY ELIZABETH HOUSTON!! ✊🏾👏🏾🎶😁❤️
Whitney was the most perfect synthesis of what you want from a singer. Beauty, power, sensibility, heart, and soul. Unmatched.
DON'T FORGET TONE AND TASTE.
@@lexgraham2118 definitely!
@@lexgraham2118 You forgot "CLASS" tonnes of it in this performance.
Natural charm, charisma, guts and soul she had it all like Clive said

@@LC-lc4qu Actually you can be both. Very few singers are also performers. So it is possible. Just not for Whitney
It is possible to be both, a singer and performer. It just takes more skills.
And she also directed her band with her body language which was amazing

FLAT FOOTED!!!
@@kl.8992That’s how my mom always say about Whitney “this woman could just flat foot sang!! And who gon do her something? Lol

Your run here SHOOK me! 19:25 🤣🤣🤣 You’re one of the only vocal analysts I watch because you can actually sing and demonstrate it in real time, and it sounds GREAT!
Thank you so much! 😆🫶🏾
I love this breakdown.
Whitney comes from a family of great singers. Her mother, Cissy, Dionne, and Leontyne. Greatness
Thanks!
And don’t forget her cousin Dionne.
@@jmlegrairstudio I am still waiting on you to analyze these 3 performances: an audio of Whitney singing I Am Changing (San Francisco 1986), He, I Believe (either the video in Wembley or the audio in Japan 1990) and her singing One Song-the video quality is abysmal but her voice shines through.
Notice at 26:30 how Jaron's voice is so powerful and resonant that the sound system is SHOOK and his voice reverbs!!!! Amazing and anointed
🤗🤗🤗
Right I got chills from him copying her during bess and porgy
The movie that just came out about Whitney “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” really made me love this performance so much more, because they showed that Whitney didn’t even wanna do it but she did it and did it well!!! The actress nailed the mannerisms when they recreated this performance too!
I watched it over the weekend. I've always loved this performance, but like yourself after watching the movie I truly appreciate this performance even more.
Can’t wait to see , I’m going tonight
She had something that can’t be duplicated. Just effortless and angelic vocally but still full of character. It’s so pleasant to the ear. She always made you feel whatever she said. You always believed it.
What can I say, this is one of my favorite performances by Whitney Houston. Can't nobody do what this Whitney Elizabeth Houston did.
Whitney! Whitney! Whitney! There will never be another and she will never be duplicated. A gift from God. That voice!!!! Goosebumps every time.
She's such a generous singer, I love her
In a perfect world, she’d be able to sit down with the likes of yourself and analyze these performances-I’d give anything to hear/see her first hand account of what went into preparing for these performances, what she felt in the moment, etc. Thanks a bunch for this analysis.
I shudder when I hear and see how much command this woman possessed. Jeez Louise!!! This is pure talent…… UNMATCHED
When Whitney smiles I can’t help but smile , she is just beauty and talent personified
Her control is 1of 1
The way you just hit the notes with out trying 🥰🥰
🤗🥹🙏🏾
One of the best voice analysis on UA-cam! Whitney was incomparable!
My absolute favourite live performance from a female artist. Whitney was, is & forever will be The Voice.
I remember this performance! How she sang these 3 songs back to back without a drink of water is impossible to me. My mouth and throat gets dry just watching her sing. It takes TALENT to pull this off.
THE GREATEST POP VOCALIST EVER
The rich, dark, theatrical, classical, massive sound was her signature throughout her whole career it’s like listening to a storm or something.
That’s why she’s called THE VOICE she had the best of it all and her style makes it even more beautiful.
She’s not the greatest pop vocalist ever tho.
@@Beytheevocalist. She arguably is The Best Pop vocalist if we take every aspects what make great singer GREAT. She may not be the best technical singer out there but overall she is cause singing isn’t just about technic even tho Whitney’s technic was impeccable.
And she impacted the whole world and broke so many boundaries and records only with the beauty of her voice. No controversy or sexual selling was used. That’s why decades later people ( general public ) still call her the voice and is a the top of most people lists.
@@Beytheevocalist. No your right she's the best singer ever
@@Beytheevocalist. not Beyonce either. Who has a constricted voice
And that’s why she was the best singer on the planet! No competition. Finally Rolling Stone magazine has just about got it right with their latest revamp of the 200 greatest singers of all time list wherein Whitney places 2nd, right behind the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin. I think we should start calling Whitney “The Queen of Song.”
For over 10 minutes Whitney sang and she showed the world yet again why she’s THE VOICE. People need to understand Whitney’s version of And I Am Telling You was totally different from Jennifer Holidays. Let me explain why I say this…In Jennifer’s rendition she’s singing about how she wants to hang onto her lover/man and she is not going to let him go. When Whitney performed this song she was at the height of her career and her personal life…she was becoming a movie star after already being a music star, she had just had her baby and her marriage was pretty much in a great place. Her singing And I Am Telling You she’s telling the world that even though nobody wanted her to be with Bobby, she was not going to leave-she was going to stay and you (the world) are going to love me (her). Nobody could deny that she loved him during these times. You’re absolutely correct that Whitney on that nigh sang 3 different genres of music with ease and perfection.
one is begging the other is defiant and having the cards
@@odumosuolusegun2781 Hello buddy. You’re right. Have you seen the Celine fans making a huge fuss because she wasn’t listed on the greatest singers list by Rolling Stones?
@@jobuck879 Yes, but I feel she should be on the list definitely more than the fraudulent live singer.. They all have to stop putting Whitney with this girls though, it is insulting. The whole conversation is people even saying Whitney should be on top of Aretha. It would never happen in the US, even if many people think so. I understand and I am ok with Aretha put there. Internationally though people would put her ahead. She topped the UK list for greatest vocalist
@@odumosuolusegun2781 I agree, I mean to simply exclude Celine is a foolish thing. And of course we both know Whitney would top the list if they were to do global singers.
In the latest Whitney movie, there’s a scene where we see the musical arranger presenting her with this medley. She was like ..are you crazy? When am I supposed to breathe? She slaughtered this and you can see the victory in her smiles. But i kinda like the vulnerability in hearing that even she knew what a feat it would be. And she clearly knew it was an assignment that an Olympian like her could slay. All bow down! I’m glad she was in her prime for my generation! Won’t be another one like that. ❤❤
There are many great singers past & present, that being said she's the standard. She mastered the old & the new; jazz, R&B, Pop, gospel, opera & rock. She could do everything in all their forms.
Can't do anything but smile when you hear that woman sing. Good God, she was blessed. Glad I know who she was. She was truly something special. ❤
Had me in tears at the end with that last note just thinking about her talent, her anointing! Still can't believe she's gone. 😢
Whitney’s tone and head voice was unmatched, Ugh. THE VOICE!
Aside from your wealth of knowledge, you bring me soooo much joy! Stay blessed ❤
This is one of my favorite performances of hers. One thing you better understand is that once Ms Whitney started sweating on her upper lip, it was over!! She was about to put in that work and blow your mind.🙌🏽💕🙌🏽💕
Can you please for 2023 share a video of your vocal range! Because damn I'm thinking you can keep up with the best of them! I adore you and your channel and so looking forward to your content this year! Miss Houston was an icon and my favorite singer! She literally taught a lot of us in our generation how to sing and I know we all studied her! God bless her forever and always.
I keep meaning to! I’m sorry! I will! 😂🙏🏾
I believe that Whitney was one of the only singers who knew how to go the difference ranges as she sang & it was part of her Gift as well bcuz most singers just get up their & they try to sing but Whitney add flavor spice pepper 🫑 &rich seasoning in her songs
Sooo powerful!!
The difference between Whitney and other singers she breaths on you. She has so much soul she gives you her spirit and you feel it. Thanks for your knowledge on explaining how to interpret what we are hearing ♥
🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
This is one of the greatest live performances ever
Yes Lord!! Thank you for blessing us with this beautiful vocal instrument. RIP Whitney! You are missed and there is no other like you! ❤ 🎤 🎶
Your analysis is so detailed, you really know what your sayin men, kudos. Loving Whitney Forever 💖
Quite simply the performance (one of many) that handed her the crown of greatest singer. She (according to her music Director) knew well how difficult this would be, had the confidence to mark every breath, register voice flip and understood that this performance would be a stellar moment that would long outlive her time on this earth. She knew how great this was, God Bless you Whitney - you left us the Greatest Gift of ALL. You remain the Queen for 40years - 100yrs will come soon enough.
It’s so crazy, the second you started saying she has the classical qualities in the way she sings, you started sounding EXACTLY like her. When you were talking about your classical tenor days. So cool. That’s exactly what the quality is and I’ve never been able to figure out what it was.
The end of this performance always makes me cry because I'm so amazed at her talent and it makes me sad she is gone physically. Wow, what an angel on Earth and a gift! 😢❤
THEE VOICE!!! THEE INCOMPARABLE WHITNEY HOUSTON!!!🕊🕊🕊🙌🏾
Well, we call her The Voice for a reason! She is the best to ever do it in my book. Her tone, delivery, diction, notes leading up to her climax& high notes were everything. She gave us gospel, pop, rock, R&B, jazz, and opera. Even in her later years, that unmistakable tone was still there. Nippy shall forever be #1 in my book!!
I think the way she articulates is like British. Very southern British, how they would say posh southern British people speak. Every word is clearly finished. That's part of why she was huge world wide. Her vocal delivery transcended globally and introduced her to different audiences in my opinion.
Amazing observation!!
Very interesting perspective 🤔! There very well may be something to that! I would love an analysis on that!
she never minces her words, i am not a native english speaker, so i am always impressed at it and how i understand her perfectly most of the time
Ms. Houston delivered a perfect performance! It wasn't just that her vocals were incomparable. Her whole presentation is unmatched. In a talentless world that worships trash, she still stands out as a standard bearer of class, style, dignity, and talent that is truly proof of the existence of God.
While today's performances are more suited for strip clubs and brothels with people wearing more makeup than a clown, we were given this gift from above. She stood before the audience, resplendent, covered head to toe in a classic gown which featured a most complimentary blue tone and modest sequins. She wore limited makeup, which, although not even necessary, perfectly displayed her elegant facial features. Her hair was perfectly made in an almost regal crown for her. She then seduced the crowd with her expressive eyes and tone. We are all privileged to witness this iconic and perfect marriage of beauty and talent. God bless you, Ms. Houston!
The joy and admiration on your face as you watch Whitney sing, makes my heart smile.
Of all the so called "voice teacher's videos" I've watched, this is the best reaction so far. You comment and show, and explain anything we need to know about vocal. Bravo
Thanks for the analysis. Whitney was unmatched!
When I tell you this is Whitney at her most QUINTESSENTIAL vocal prowess. I have to watch it at least once a day since I discovered it
Whitney is my number one female singer. Missed her so much. Gone too soon 😢 😪 💔. She can never be replaced for me. Michael Jackson is my favorite male singer 🥲💔.Awesome vocalist 💖. Jaron, your the best!🤗👏❤. I'm glad I found your channel.
It was at 26:51 for me that was golden diamond platinum whatever you want to call it. That is why she is “THE VOICE “ . Another Great one Coach!
❤️
My ❤ ~ I remember when this first aired. I watched it over & over for months. I know this from beginning to end. Every note, adlib, head turn, and finger snap. There will NEVER be another Nippy❤ 🕊️ 🎶 ❤
OMG you can really sing too. You are the male Whitney. Wish I had a voice like you❤
When was she able to breathe!? Not just one of THEE best, but also a genius vocalist..whew!
IKR?? Hahaha so good.
She was a star ⭐️ her voice beauty and classy style no one can touch, I really loved her sooo much, I couldn’t even watch her after she pass because I would get so sad, this young was a true gem rip my angle ❤🎉truly misses her
You are soooooo refreshing. Your critiques are over my musical aptitude HOWEVER I love listening and then watching techniques for my favorite artists. Nippy was my baby! Never duplicated often complimented by "others reaching" albeit failing to match her blessed gift!!! I enjoy these. Thank you
Awww thank you so much!
She was simply the best. Whitney had a beautiful voice, was technically perfect but her best quality was she had the ability to make you believe she meant every word she sang! My favorite singer forever!
She has literally the best head voice in history her and her tone…. Just amazing❤️❤️.
This is my all time favorite live performance that I have ever witnessed. Every time I watch it I get chills and teary eyed. Whitney is my favorite female singer and I miss her. Keep resting in heavenly peace sweet angel 👼🏾
She was Heavenly man. We need to remember more of what good people bring to the world. She, along with many others, will always be missed.
I wish that I could sing, even just a little bit. I would walk around singing, as if my life was a musical 🎵💃🏽🤷🏽🤣
Whitney Houston had the best control over her vocals in any key. Perfection!
When singing live completely untouchable. No one could make me believe a lyric like Whitney ❤
you are blessing up with all this whitney content❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Omg. I going to watch this again and again. I loved how you analyzed her voice. The richness in her voice makes you feel it❤❤
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I’ve watched this video of her signing too many times to count. I truly love this woman and her gift ❤
I went to her Super Bowl 91 national anthem and then I wonder if you did a vocal breakdown on that and you did. Then as I watched that I said I wonder if he did one on this performance right here. I scrolled down a few as you talked about her national anthem performance and bam here got the other performance I was thinking of I’m in Whitney heaven!!!! Yaaaas!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Let's keep in mind she did this performance while in the middle of a world tour. She had already done over 60 dates by the time she performed this. I'm still amazed how she was able to do this night after night.
Many can sing and do alot of technical stuff but this is when whitney houston went supersonic for me. She could no longer be categorised in any genre but the genre of the VOICE haha. Beyond amazing
I miss her. The one and only, The Voice!
That last note brought tears to my eyes 😢 superior performance!
Whitney was a vocal beast …whew one of one!
It's the soul, it's her effortless quality, the freedom in her, to not think about what to do next but just open the mouth and sing. Seeing a singer at ease is so enjoyable. Whitney and Fairouz are songbirds that people are always drawn too.
Can you do Patti Labelle “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” MLK tribute in the red dress. Interested on seeing your take on it.
Yes!
Oh yes honey I watched that performance as a little girl in the early 80’s and still have Yet to recover 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️
I just watched that and the Arsenio Hall performance. My edges and nerve endings have been SNATCHED!!
Agreed
Auntie had that heavenly voice and spirit.
OMGGGGGGGGGGG YOU FINALLY DID IT😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 THANK YOUUUUUUUU🙌🏾🙌🏾. Okay next one Whitney Houston One moment in time The Grammys🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This is my favorite live performance of Whitney’s. Her voice/talent was an amazing gift from God. This performance was a master class.
My God Today this gave me chills, thrills and drop a few tears, like it did when I originally saw it. Whitney was one of one!
She and Luther had an emaculate pucker they'd use. So perfect 😍
I remember singing this over and over as a little girl after I watched this performance- I was in love (vhs days)
thank you so much for doing so much justice to the greatest vocalist of all times. Every musician out there, specially us singers, are in the prescence of a MASTER CLASS each time she was standing in front of that mic, even in her challenging times.
Loved your analysis!!!
Much love for your channel
🥰🥰🥰🥰
ALL OF This!! That even in her trying time had me even more emotional!! Just graceful in times of fire that made her that much more AMAZZING!! NOBODY NO ONE EVER THERE’LL ONLY BE ONE
MS WHITNEY ELIZABETH HOUSTON!! ✊🏾👏🏾🎶😁❤️
@@turonhayes1518 💚💚💚💚🙏🙏🙏🙏🌝🌝🌝🌝
I love the way you break down each vocal technique. Your analysis is so in depth, I am learning so much. & rest eternally, Whitney Thee Voice Houston.
I'm 51 and now I know why I sing tall, thin, and dark. So many years of mimicking her.
