Cissy’s voice was a treasure. When Whitney said her Mother taught her everything you can hear it. Her phrasing, singing style and how she used her voice like a beautiful instrument. Made me teary eyed.
That’s how you do it, kids. This lady was in demand by the top artists around the world in all kinds of genres for decades- you can see why. Just beautiful
This lady had a 70 year career in music that transcends background, solo, gospel, pop, RnB, and many other genres. She deserves documentaries and tributes from major platforms.
I'm not a religious person at all but I admire how miss Cissy never lost her faith. A week before she died I listened to the audio version of her book and wow, it's a great book. I highly recommend.
@@Infinite_Deity_EntI know people like conspiracies and all, but it’s low key insulting to Miss Cissy Houston to make claims like that. Especially if she did indeed carry that child in her womb and birth her…
Rip Cissy-your background in Ain’t No Way has lived in my head since the first time I heard it. My Presenting Cissy Houston vinyl is forever in the loop, and I hope this isn’t weird but the poster that came with it is on the wall of my room. I’m twenty years old and somehow by the grace of God, your music found me. Thank you. Rest in peace.
This is the first time..I witnesses this Song I am 62 y/o ...Amazing!!No wonder Whitney has a Majestic Voice..Her Mom propel her!! Ladies you have a Majestic Voice...Thank You...RIP
Rest in peace cissy a legend you can hear so much of whintey in her voice it's sad that such a vocal trinity is gone forever 3 angels in heaven now ❤thier up there singing in heavens now
I hope people will take the opportunity to listen to some of Cissy's recordings with her siblings as The Drinkard Singers. These were recorded when she was in her early 20s. I think that is the period in her life where you can hear the greatest vocal similarities between her and her daughter, Whitney Houston.
My neighbours above me banged on their floor to complain because I listened to this on Eleven! Totally worth it. Thanks Dave, Barbara and Mary. RIP Cissy Houston.
I've heard great covers of this iconic song, but this one is touched by the Divine, at least for me. Her voice pierces through my soul like she knew me from Adam. Thank you, Ms.Houston and may God grant you eternal peace.

Whitney said her mom taught her everything about singing and this absolutely shows it. RIP to both lovely woman and their baby Bobbi 🙏
This is where Soul, Gospel, and Pop genres meet! R.I.P. (Rest In Power) Cissy.
Now Cissy is with her beloved daughter Whitney & granddaughter Bobbi .
Rest in paradise Ms Cissy🌻
To outlive a child must have been the worst. Love to them always. 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
I heard Whitney 💕💜
Also her husband.
She is also reunited with her niece Felicia 🙏
Ummm don't forget bobbi s husband has also passed
That’s how you do it, kids. This lady was in demand by the top artists around the world in all kinds of genres for decades- you can see why. Just beautiful
Made me cry. This woman been through so much. She had a very interesting life.
This lady had a 70 year career in music that transcends background, solo, gospel, pop, RnB, and many other genres. She deserves documentaries and tributes from major platforms.
Actually deserves to be in R&R HOF
@@JamaalShelton-uq2jk I agree she did background for everyone in the industry just about and help make those recordings what they were
PHENOMENAL she is ❤🤧😢
@@JamaalShelton-uq2jkIs Whitney there yet?
So give it to her since you're so passionate🥴🌝🤡
I'm not a religious person at all but I admire how miss Cissy never lost her faith. A week before she died I listened to the audio version of her book and wow, it's a great book. I highly recommend.
Yep! This is definitely Whitney's momma. May she rest in peace ❤
That’s not her biological mother… Whitney was an outside child that her father had with Teresa Graves
@@Infinite_Deity_Ent Either way, still her momma and I bet she was a lovely vocal inspiration to Whitney. ❤
@@Infinite_Deity_Ent That has yet to be proven factual.

Cece Houston was her Aunt, Whitney;s biological mother is Dione Warwick.
What a beautiful voice just like Whitney . May they both rest in peace and in paradise. She is with her daughter and her granddaughter now.
R.I.P. Cissy, awesome cover of that song
Pure Excellence!
May she Rest In Peace. 🙏🏽🕊️

That harmony is mesmerizing. I listen to that song all the time. It was my mom's favorite song
I love young old souls like yourself
I pray for the family,and strong arms around her sons and Dionne.
Pray for what???
@@officeboy89 don’t act ignorant. She said “I pray for the family”. If you don’t pray that’s fine but just keep it moving.

Frfrfrfrfrfr...!!!
Whitney’s voice was otherworldly, but you can hear how much of Cissy’s voice and delivery found its way into her sound. This was stunning.
Unfortunately never heard Cissy before and this is exactly what I thought.👌
What a remarkable life and legacy! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Excellent performance, and the band was killing it!
Rest in peace Cissy Houston. Brought us the voice and now you are singing together in the great somewhere ❤
That “great somewhere” is Heaven!
