IMPORTANT!! We did this week in the wrong order! This video is actually #1 and the last video of the week is #5! Sorry about that to our lovely donor M! So just keep in mind this week is in reverse haha but number 3 is is still number 3!! woo! got one of em right! 😅
On this night Whitney did this and also Toni Braxton did another sad love song live also with a beautiful sleeveless red dress on plus a black lacey choker.
*The vocal elasticity, the vocal control, the melisma, the song interpretation, the velvety-honey like tone that blankets her voice from top to bottom, the diction, the vocal power, the vibrato, the operatic head notes, the resonance, the breath control, the vocal sustainability, the vocal clarity, the vocal emotiveness, the delivery, the stage presence...THE VOICE* Whitney *'The Vocal Tsunami'* Houston...... Whitney *'Diamond Vocal Cords'* Houston.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Whitney Houston is the perfect combination of power, chest, head, bravado, riffs, runs, transitions and registry’s in the most beautiful tone you’ll ever hear. If an angel could come from heaven and sing, it would sound like Whitney Houston. This is why she is the voice! This is no disrespect to any other singer because their are plenty of amazing ones but Whitney is unparalleled to me because I can’t express what I feel when I hear her except on the verge of crying when I do
Never understood Whitney being debated as the GOAT. studio ok. but live? she is head and shoulders the greatest. She doesn't just sing, she testifies, tells the story. just sucks you in and holds you.
She was dressed like a DIVA AVENGER ready to SLAY three BIG SONGS back to BACK! 7 MIN & she still leaves U WANTING MORE! Only a true star can make a award show performance feel like a CONCERT. She was STANDING & SINGING
I don’t care what any one says but this is THE best live performance ever. It is like you said, you recognize greatness and one in a lifetime moments when you see them. Whitney was totally feeling herself too and knew she was killing it.
A Barbara Waters quote might explain what you guys meant, and many feel. “She only needs to stand and deliver. Whitney caresses her audience with a show so intimate that you feel you've witnessed the public unveiling of her soul The show is simple. Because her talent is huge. So big that there is no room left on stage for anything another than her voice.”
Listen to the way she phrases her lines. It feels like she’s talking to you, like this is an intimate conversation you’re part of, because of where she puts the emphasis and the pause. She’s not a slave to the meter, she knows exactly when to rush ahead and when to slow it down and let it breathe. And she has absolutely exquisite taste with when she chooses to employ her vocal agility, it’s never too much, it’s always just what you need. Her voice… no words. She’s just incredible.
Joe: *deep breath* Whitney singing Mike: *busts out laughing* Literally lmaoo it's laughable almost how of another world she was. Her voice was UNREAL. I miss it so much. Just the best example of 'your voice is an instrument.' She smiles when she sings too which I just love.
There’s no voice like hers! Her live vocals are pure perfection. She was truly our gift here in America. Countries envy us because of her, MJ, Tina, Beyonce and T Swift…
I’m always so happy to see people react to Whitney. She simply was one of the greatest to ever do it. I was fortunate to see her in concert in 88 and 92 and 94. She was gifted and took my breath away. I always get annoyed when people are compared to her when NO ONE has ever come close. Whitney’s perfection was in live singing. No one else has ever done what she does.
You are the luckiest person in the world! The first time I saw this concert, I thought that if I had been there, I would have fainted, and her voice would have brought me back to life, only for me to faint again. I don't think I would have survived seeing a live concert of Whitney!
The GOAT. The best performance of the best singer of all time. This is sublime. 3 different songs with 3 different keys/chord patterns/syncopation. And LIVE. The others could never! ❤
Whenever I watch her live performances, I'm always in awe of her talent. But as soon as it ends, it gives me a sense of sadness. How she gave it her all and poured her heart out, but in the end, she had demons she had to battle against and she's alone.
First off Whitney, will forever be in a league of her own. She is so immaculate ❤🎉 And Joe.... you're basically my "twin" white brother. I enjoy your wordplay and analogies... ever so descriptive. You are basically a me.😊
Let me explain to you guys what you’re trying to explain about Whitney’s voice. Whitney’s voice is what you call anointed, meaning from God! There are many people that can sing, but there are very few that are anointed. What separates Whitney from everyone else, is her ability to tell a story. Not only does she tell a story, she’s also taking you on a journey. This is why she does this better than anyone else. “Lionel Ritchie once said on Larry King years ago, “singing is about story telling, and nobody can a story like Whitney Houston.”
I'm watching her with you and my heart is just beating out of my chest watching her because she is just the MOMENT, she's the ONE, she's the VOICE. There will never be another. Sometimes I just need her and nothing else will do but listening to her power through those notes and touch my soul like only she can do.
Whitney Houston was a phenomenal powerhouse of a singer. What is really funny is that she is hitting such high notes and she is singing these songs at a lower register than what she recorded the songs in originally.
😢no he podido aguantar la emoción al ver y oir a la mejor cantante de todos los tiempos yo no soy un experto en los tecnicismos vocales lo unico que se es que se es que viendo esta actuación he interpretación de Whitney se ha puesto la piel de gallina y he llorado 💭 pensando en que desgraciadamente nos dejo pero nos quedan sus conciertos videos musicales para asi poder recordarla y seguir disfrutando de su extraordinaria presencia en un escenario y de su increíble voz love Whitney Houston por siempre y hasta el fin de lis tiempos ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
WOW! The use of freedom to describe a consummate professional working in their craft is PERFECTION! As a singer myself, that's what I strive for... whatever I hear and feel, I want to be able to execute it without thinking and in my mind that seems like the THE ultimate joy. And that is what comes across in Whitney. This was a joy for her. This was home. You NAILED that! EDIT: This was definitely a "Stars aligned" moment. Of course, Whitney, Whitney, Whitney... but THE BAND... KILLING... Ricky Minor and this arrangement... CRAZY! (So crazy, that apparently Whitney told him "hell no" when he pitched it to her! Hahaha!)... The camera work... BEAUTIFULLY CAPTURED! The angles and timing were IMPECCABLE... the audience! They were on their feet for 8 minutes of this 10 minute performance! I put this down as her best ever single performance. You can learn EVERYTHING you need to know about Whitney as a singer in this video.
That freedom remark is exactly what Whitney expressed after the billboard awards when asked about her singing; it feels like flying aka from. Great point! Whitney was and still is otherworldly! 🙏🏿💜
Even her band played the accompanient of I Have Nothing better than the studio recording, they wiped the floor with it LOL. Whitney is unmatched by any vocalist. Live or studio.
I feel like Whitney was always singing to god, she always had her eyes way up while singing those impossible high notes; I hope she is at peace with him now 🙏
OMG! Whitney is fucking amazing! I love love love her. I will say she did a fabulous job on I'm Not Goin', but it does make me want to listen to Jennifer Holliday sing it. I saw Dream Girls in LA, and she owned that song! Gave me chills!
Now we doing something! A whitney live top 5 is long awaited. The best yet. You should definitely do more to 5 live performances of certain artists. Luther vandross next please!
During this time, Whitney was at the height of her career. She had a blockbuster movie, a soundtrack that was on fire. To make it better, she was the happiest she had ever been-she had given birth to her daughter and her marriage was in a good place. The interpretation of And I Am Telling You is different from the original version that Jennifer Holiday sang-Whitney was telling us that although every single person is saying she should get rid of Bobby and find someone better, she’s not leaving him..she’s staying with him. She stood there for over 10 minutes and sang these 3 big songs like it was nothing. She’s the greatest vocalist of all time.
This is #5? So there are 4 performances better than this? Buckle up people. This is going to be one hell of a ride. Whitney is the Michael Jordan of singing
I guess I Subscribed at the right time! 😆 - And if THIS is #5, I’d be curious to see where this is going, because for ME this is Top 3 of Whitney Live. I also like that you guys actually HEAR and acknowledge the instruments as well, because she had like a 10 piece band with everyone firing at 100% and stood at a mic with just her voice! To this day, IMO her, Patti Labelle, Prince and Beyoncé are the ONLY artists who can have a full band backing them and not get swallowed by it!
IMPORTANT!! We did this week in the wrong order! This video is actually #1 and the last video of the week is #5! Sorry about that to our lovely donor M!
So just keep in mind this week is in reverse haha but number 3 is is still number 3!! woo! got one of em right! 😅
On this night Whitney did this and also Toni Braxton did another sad love song live also with a beautiful sleeveless red dress on plus a black lacey choker.
this performance is a reason why she is considered an immortal legend!

I can't find better words to discribe the GOAT Whitney Houston.
Nobody can touch her. She is THE VOICE
When Whitney unleashes THE VOICE she just goes to the stratosphere. There's no holding her back. Greatest Of All Time 👏🏾
Yep the GOAT Whitney Houston RIP.. The greatest VOICE to walk this Earth
Whitney said “Y’all ain’t pausing on me yet Joe “! 😂
😂 😂😂
😂😂😂
Just stuck with stank face😂
"JOE I AM TELLING YOU, I AM NOT GOING" HAHAHA
And Joe was like - Yes WHITNEY 🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇
Whitney singing is just special,she's an icon,no one absolutely no one sings like her
Facts!
Never understood Whitney being debated as the GOAT. studio ok. but live? she is head and shoulders the greatest. She doesn't just sing, she testifies, tells the story. just sucks you in and holds you.
Very clearly the greatest singer to live.
Whitney is where God sends the Angels to learn to sing.
Love it so true
She was dressed like a DIVA AVENGER ready to SLAY three BIG SONGS back to BACK! 7 MIN & she still leaves U WANTING MORE! Only a true star can make a award show performance feel like a CONCERT. She was STANDING & SINGING
I don’t care what any one says but this is THE best live performance ever. It is like you said, you recognize greatness and one in a lifetime moments when you see them. Whitney was totally feeling herself too and knew she was killing it.
Best singer n voice ever in my eyes.
A Barbara Waters quote might explain what you guys meant, and many feel. “She only needs to stand and deliver.
Whitney caresses her audience with a show so intimate that you feel you've witnessed the public unveiling of her soul
The show is simple. Because her talent is huge.
So big that there is no room left on stage for anything another than her voice.”
Was I supposed to read that in a voiceover voice or did I just do it on my own? 😂
The girls could NEVER ✌🏾
bby they don’t have the genes for it!!
EVER‼️
Listen to the way she phrases her lines. It feels like she’s talking to you, like this is an intimate conversation you’re part of, because of where she puts the emphasis and the pause. She’s not a slave to the meter, she knows exactly when to rush ahead and when to slow it down and let it breathe. And she has absolutely exquisite taste with when she chooses to employ her vocal agility, it’s never too much, it’s always just what you need. Her voice… no words. She’s just incredible.
Her mama taught her well.❤
She's my ultimate diva
Her voice, her beauty, her talent
We missed you so much Whitney
Whitney THE VOICE Houston! There will never be another like her generational talent. 🔥
She is one of the greatest singers the world will ever know.
You guys gave one of the best descriptions of Whitney's talent I've ever seen from any youtubers💯 i felt every word
Yay! Whitney is the GOAT.
THE VOICE without question ❤❤❤
She only had to walk out on the stage and there was a standing Ovation! Then she would start singing! 😮😮😮😮❤❤❤❤👑👑👑👑👑👑
Joe: *deep breath* Whitney singing
Mike: *busts out laughing*
Literally lmaoo it's laughable almost how of another world she was. Her voice was UNREAL. I miss it so much. Just the best example of 'your voice is an instrument.' She smiles when she sings too which I just love.
Hitting notes is impressive, but is "just" sports or vocal acrobatics ... Whitney is an artist, she uses her vocal instrument and talent to create ❤
Whitney will always be the voice that can never be duplicated. She’s simply in a league of her own. Gone too soon, she’s truly missed.
The best we had...
Also the queen of wigs.
I heard her live vocals at David Foster's recording studio and it sounded exactly like the record. Her voice is THE voice. Astounding. RIP.
Whitney is the Gift!!!
There’s no voice like hers! Her live vocals are pure perfection. She was truly our gift here in America. Countries envy us because of her, MJ, Tina, Beyonce and T Swift…
HOW is this only at No.5? It deserves the Top Spot. That’s how epic this is
Makes me excited to see the next ones
I'm thinking, " He gives good love." Heroes' return live is going to be #1!!! I feel it! That was epic!
To me one of the best live performances of all time! Simply amazing talent!
I’m always so happy to see people react to Whitney. She simply was one of the greatest to ever do it. I was fortunate to see her in concert in 88 and 92 and 94.

Without a doubt she is your favorite singer
Whitney live singing A song for you at the welcome home hero concert...
Yeah, well said. She is the best in her craft, and that gives her so much freedom to express her emotions. It is truely God's gift 😊
The GOAT. The best performance of the best singer of all time. This is sublime. 3 different songs with 3 different keys/chord patterns/syncopation. And LIVE. The others could never! ❤
I fully teared up during this reaction 😅 I’ll be watching this performance on repeat for quite a while
The Voice of her generation! The GOAT❤❤❤ . More Whitney Houston live performances reaction.
Whenever I watch her live performances, I'm always in awe of her talent. But as soon as it ends, it gives me a sense of sadness. How she gave it her all and poured her heart out, but in the end, she had demons she had to battle against and she's alone.
Finally Whitney again! 🤩 ain’t no one doin adlibs like Whitney
First off Whitney, will forever be in a league of her own. She is so immaculate ❤🎉
And Joe.... you're basically my "twin" white brother. I enjoy your wordplay and analogies... ever so descriptive. You are basically a me.😊
Oh how I miss Whitney. 🥹

She was Extraordinary!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️Never another one like her 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Second to none.
I'm watching her with you and my heart is just beating out of my chest watching her because she is just the MOMENT, she's the ONE, she's the VOICE. There will never be another. Sometimes I just need her and nothing else will do but listening to her power through those notes and touch my soul like only she can do.
her best performance imo.
Wow. I was tearing up just as you said it was the closest you’ve ever come to crying on the show lol She tends to do that 😩😆
Whitney Houston was a phenomenal powerhouse of a singer. What is really funny is that she is hitting such high notes and she is singing these songs at a lower register than what she recorded the songs in originally.
I still missing her! Whitney the VOICE will alive forever in our minds and hearts
The one and only Ms Whitney Elizabeth Houston AKA The Voice ❤
Essa mulher era fora do normal🙌🙌🙌👑👑👑👑

Now this is the correct response to witnessing Whitney's genius! Y'all are officially the Whitney Houstons of reaction videos lol ❤
Joe: the Whitney Houston of analogies 😂 That was great! You two are freaking entertaining. And salute to you for your reaction 👍🏾
Whitney Houston tinha um trovão em sua garganta, sua voz era surreal.
Even her band played the accompanient of I Have Nothing better than the studio recording, they wiped the floor with it LOL. Whitney is unmatched by any vocalist. Live or studio.
At her best and her natural beauty...so sad just noonee will match her..hope you are resting ms whitney....voice of a goddess❤
I hope whoever made this Whitney Houston live week put her rendition of “I Am Changing” on the list! Talk about TOUR DE FORCE!
I feel like Whitney was always singing to god, she always had her eyes way up while singing those impossible high notes; I hope she is at peace with him now 🙏
OMG! Whitney is fucking amazing! I love love love her. I will say she did a fabulous job on I'm Not Goin', but it does make me want to listen to Jennifer Holliday sing it. I saw Dream Girls in LA, and she owned that song! Gave me chills!

Thanks to the person who submitted this fr. Not to get parasocial but my biggest regret is being born too late to see her live.
No, there's nothing better.
