Whitney did have a drug problem but she was amazing Glennis is my fellow Dutch citizen and she is clean well from what I know. Note there's no actual sweating. When Whitney was high or low not sure she did have symptoms we saw that just wish they could have saved her from destruction!!
To be blessed with a voice like Whitney Houston in my life is beyond belief, but to have two gorgeous women do they same thing is phenomenal! Glennis grace is amazing!! Whitney Houston would be proud I'm sure!!
I’m just blown away. Her voice is identical, as strong, as talented as Whitney’s. This is the only person in the world who can do a Whitney song proud. Glennis is as gorgeous as her voice! Wow!!!❤❤
It’s now 2024 but I felt drawn to the 80s instantly! Breathtaking performance with those incredible vocal ranges. Whitney is damn proud of you, Glennis. ❤
@KLGoodman did I say she needed to be famous in other countries? No. I just said I’m surprised she’s not famous elsewhere because of how amazing she is. It was a compliment to her. Calm down fool. Edit: I’m NOT American either. I’m from the UK … pretty much next to the Netherlands!!!
@KLGoodman If we Americans don't live a good life how come everybody wants to come here?! and dress like us, hear the same music and IMITATE our famous singers....like Whitney Houston?!...you dumb fuck!!
And 5 years later this trailer trash (yes that's how we see this woman here in the Netherlands) is a convicted criminal. She misbehaved in a supermarket and assaulted staff there along with a thug group who was with her. Just look it up and use google translate.

Who is THIS?😮I swear I've never heard ANYONE sing this song as beautifully as Whitney, until today. It gave me chills, tears and made me tremble. This woman is phenomenal ❤️ I am blown away. Utterly stunned. Wow. Just absolutely incredible.
There are MANY people who are going to have voice types that give them the ability to sing like Whitney…. But how many of those people have the voice type and actually knows how to use it like this??? This is the result of a perfect vocal cord/vocal type match, endless talent, musicality, and training.
In fact, Glennis began to sing when she heard for the first time Whitney singing. She was 9 years old . Glennis wanted to sing as well as Miss Houston . Later, when she was 16 years old, she won a tv singers contest singing Whitney and the title : one moment in time . Glennis sings her own songs in dutch but keep a place for Whitney’s songs . She made a tribute show recently...
Glenn is is flawless as always, but can we take a minute to say how incredible Ms. Candy Dulfer is on that sax!!!! Putting these two brilliant and beautiful women together was genius!
No one can sing this song compare to Whitney like this woman does! I’ve seen other artists try singing this song. This woman’s voice is on top of all! Fantastic job.
Glennis clearly a Whitney fan and studied every aspect of tone, ressance and milisma but is also super talented in her own right. To truly listen to the ease in which Glennis give of herself in this rendition is outstanding. Hats off to Glennis - and her love of the most talented songstress ever. Love Whitney 💘

If I ever miss Whitney's concert in my next life, I have no regrets coming to yours, Glennis! Congratulations! Sorry for writing this comment 6 years late.
@amy rose every year there's a ladies of soul concert here in Holland where she performs with candy dulfer, trijntje oosterhuis, edsilia rombley and berget Lewis along with some great names as guest performers like Sheila E, oletta adams, Frank mccomb. They are all great on stage.
Absolutely agree Amy Rose,, Glennis is absolutely awesome, one thing she for sure needs however is her OWN music. Whitney was - Glennis "is", when she breaks from Whitney we'll see her go even further
I agree Michael .Glennis Grace kills Whitney songs . She is very talented . Christina performance and the band was so terrible . I thought it was disrespectful if anything.
Its good shes allready 40 now. The industry cannot break her anymore. Now the whole world can enjoy her voice. Shes a blessing for the whole world what a voice and shes so respectfull for Whitney her music. She doesnt use her music but she honours her music and her as person. Her career is one tribute to Whitney!! Glennis is the most proffesional and talented and gifted female singer i know! Thumbs up 👍🏼
Right there exactly she is and know the music world for over 25 years...when they asked to do the AGT 2018, She gave herself a month before she made the decision to take part in AGT..... I agree with you MrReflus
Susan Boyle broke and became a household name at 50 something. If she did it, surely this beautiful lady can. We just need to stop being obsessed with youth and get with people who got real life experiences behind their music and we just might start cranking out greats like the one's of the past again.
Dutch people only get on the train when it's moving to succes. Then you become their singer. Not all of course, but alot. They always find something negative about their big singers with personality. By example also with Waylon. Glennis would be big in the US if she was born there. Here they always tell you 'doe normaal, dan doe je al gek genoeg.' But Glennis will be the winner at the end. In Amsterdam she is loved. Always.
I'm American and have been living in Holland for 16 years. The first time I heard Glennis Grace sing, I was hooked! She is definitely my favorite singing Artist since Whitney Houston. When I hear Glennis Grace sing, wow! What an Angel!
It's just like Whitney coming back to us thru this beautiful artist. Extremely beautiful voice. .You deserve Hollywood, and they totally need you. I luv listening to you. So inspiring. I hope I see u in a movie one day.😎👍
Whitney was a VOCAL PHENOM PERIOD folks...!!! I am blessed to have the gift of voice myself and have looked up to Whitney and Patti Labelle as my vocal inspirations. And i FULLY believed when i heard the EXTREMELY tragic news of Whitney's death. That we had lost someone so unbelievably gifted who in all likelihood would never be replaced again. Then i heard Glennis Grace sing and closed my eyes. And what i'm about to say i don't say lightly but i felt Whitney had been reborn. I'm a VERY spiritual person and i do FULLY believe the lord works in mysterious ways. Did he put Whitney's voice into Glennis no. However, did he put her spirit into Glennis YES...!!! Because that's what i feel when i close my eyes and listen to Glennis sing. Whitney's spirit shining through another person who is blessed with a vocal gift. And honestly folks i can live with that feeling just fine. RIP Whitney and THANK YOU for inspiring me vocally with your music and gift. Your gone but NEVER forgotten and Glennis is living proof of that.
I Have never understood why people get teary listening to someone sing...after listening to this lady I had the tears ...oooh God! She's 👍 just can't have enough of her
Glennis is so iconic. Her breath placement on the modulation is the closest I’ve ever heard anyone come to Whitney’s original recording. So much respect for her vocally. Making the sacrifice of that first breath in order to properly place the second. Beautiful work.
This is absolutley unbelievable!! its like listening to whitney young again.. Truly amazing artist 👏🏻 Its a shame tho we now live in a world where real quality is really rare to be recognized 🙌🏻
Black lives matter exactly. No one ever said that Whitney would be replaced by this woman or any woman... and we already know that she can’t be replaced.
I am 16 and absolutely love Glennis Grace I have for years now. In my opinion the best singer in the world with the most beautiful voice and best covers not every one in the younger generation hates this kind of music I love it!!!!
@camilia Ha you're the same age as me and I concur, Glennis is the best now. I really hope she gets signed and that we hear a lot more from her soon!!!
Saw Whitney live in concert eight times in the eighties and was blessed to have talked to her twice. She is the greatest female singer of all time. Glenn’s is the closest I have ever heard in regards to sounding like Whitney. She sounds beautiful and I would love to see her in concert. Keep in mind there is only one Whitney and will never be another.
I can't stop listening.She can hit every note and hold them like Whitney did ON THE BODYGUARD ALBUM where they made it sound perfect.NOBODY can touch Whitney but Glennis is now one of my favs!
WOW!!! Is this the same Glennis Grace we saw on America's Got Talent the other night? Oh my god! This is the same song that was played at Whitney Houston's funeral. I cried my eyes out during her funeral and this song has a whole new meaning for me now that she is gone. I cried my eyes out again hearing Glennis sing it. Glennis, you have done a magnificent job singing this. I wish you the very best and will be voting for you on AGT.
This woman gave me chills. I closed my eyes and felt in some way Whitney was with us again. This is an angelic voice. I bet she prayed to Whitney before performing. There’s only one Whitney but she’s the closest second I’ve ever heard to cover her songs. What control!!!! I’m crying listening. I wish Whitney was here to see her perform but I know she’s happy smiling down from above glad we have another voice to make us smile and entertain us.
Glennis Grace had a very difficult career after her debute in 1994 in the Netherlands. There were only three channels back then, and more than half of the country watched the Soundmixshow. She put on a stunning performance with a Whitney cover, and she won the show. It was the best performance during the 6 year existence of this show. But after that performance , her career didn't went in a good way. She had bad management, the public wasn't interested and forgot her. Nobody remembered her anymore for years. In 2006, her management didn't believe in her anymore and they broke the contact. She didn't made enough money for them and her albums flopped. Nobody was interested in her golden voice (she's by far the best dutch singer ever). She had to perform as a sidekick in other singer''s concerts or as backsinger to make money. It wasn't until 2011 that her breakthrough came in the Netherlands, when she decided to sing in dutch instead of english. She won 4 times in a row best singer award and got invited in shows. Because of youtube, the international and American public picked her up and began to analyze her videos and performances (mostly young people). Now is the time to become an international superstar. She was born for it, but you need the right time and the right moment, and luck. She got a bit lucky Whitney Houston died and people are nostalgic. Glennis gives them that nostalgic feeling back. Alot of people couldn't believe she didn't have an American contract yet. But Simon Cowell, who always tracks potential new talents, saw her on youtube and people's reactions (the music industry changed, people want special performances, instant emotional gratification, authenticity, age isn't a big factor anymore). Simon immediately knew now was the time to give her the podium she deserved, 24 years after her debute.
Thank you very much to explain what we have not many videos of her before 2011 and why she isn't an international star now . I was sure she had a bad manager ...
She probably had a bad manager and bad songwriter, but also, the Netherlands was never the country for female powersingers. They are not used to that. This is probably also one of the reasons she was underestimated. She began to switch to singing dutch songs around 2010 (she was not very enthusiastic about that, but her management asked her to do it), and due to a renewed interest in songs in own language in the Netherlands (because of more nationalism), she became more popular and known and got invited in some shows on tv. Still, she had to perform in hotels and small concerts to earn money. If she is coupled to a good American songwriter, she could become the next female powersinger. She fits more in America than in the Netherlands. That's why alot of American people asked why she wasn't an international superstar yet, while the dutch never asked themselves that question.
Ramzi I wish her all the best and hope she’ll win the America’s got talent but if not I pray that Simon or a great producer will give her a break she deserves! Aside from the fact that she’s sounds like Whitney,her voice quality&style is so pro,!absolutely amazing she even had a great voice than any other singer in the U.S who sold albums even not good in live performances,those artists voices depends on autotune inhanced sadly truth! Gooo for glory #glennisgrace Im one of ur big fan from the Philippines
We don't ask that question because she was already famous in the Netherlands. Also you are acting like we don't have any good female performers besides Glennis Grace, which isn't true at all.
Benji, have U looked up Charice lately? She hasn't sung Whitney, Celine or anything worth listening to since around 2013? Her life's choices threw away her blessed gift. No more Charice 😣!
Goosebumps! Undoubtfully this is the closest cover of Whitney's 'I Will Always Love You' I have ever heard till now. It comes to my attention that most of the time, Glennis Grace uses the same vocal technique Whitney used in all her songs (head/chest voice, falsetto, vibrato, adlib, dynamic, arrangement), which we all know, is not easy at all, given the fact that many singers have failed in attempt to do it. Miss Glennis just knows 'how to do it correctly'. In my humble opinion Glennis Grace deserves not only the respect for her attempt to follow Whitney's style faithfully, but also our praise for her achievement to do it flawlessly!
Thank you Glennis Grace for sharing your awesome gift and the life time of hard work to bring it to us,, what a blessing you are,, what else can I say but,, hope to see the show in the USA 🇺🇸best singer on earth 🌏
Whitney Houston's version was a cover as well. The song was written and performed originally by Dolly Parton in 1974 ua-cam.com/video/aDqqm_gTPjc/v-deo.html
She brought tears to my eyes. I am so glad I found her. Her voice is angelic. I can listen to her all day. Thanks for sharing this. Appreciated...a whole lot.
Over the top!!! Two magnificent artists on stage: Glennis Grace and saxophonist Candy Dulfer, what great, amazing talents! Glennis' Whitney renditions always leave me in tears..OMG...
I am at a loss for words that haven't been said. It's such an Honor to have this lovely & outstanding performer on AGT. I am Star struck by her talents! 😵😳🎼😀😍😍😍
I just listened to jennifer hudson sing this in a tribute and she strained in hitting the notes. Glennis did it with ease. To me Glennis is still has the greatest of voice of all time!
Im in tears... i grew up with Whitney’s song and a part of me died with her...yet i don’t even realize my tears are rolling down when i hear this lady sing.
Nobody talks about that girl on saxophone damn she was so on point !
Candy Dulfer! Great woman and she is 53 years old. Prince always said: if you want sax call Candy. She used to play in his band
Glennis is Glennis...&...Whitney is Whitney...They both deserve respect & being distinguished separately
So Crazy I never heard a rendition of Whitney Houston until Now. This lady is Simply Amazing...her voice is impeccable!!!
Tears. Bravo. Whitney was gone too soon. You brought her back.
🤔…..that sax soloist caught my eye. Wow….it goes without saying Glinnis’ talent is beyond description.
I'm Korean, but the second Houston is back. America should be thrilled
Isn’t she Dutch?

This is professional singing. thousends of people in Amsterdam. Candy Dulfer worked for Prince when he needed her.
Whitney did have a drug problem but she was amazing Glennis is my fellow Dutch citizen and she is clean well from what I know. Note there's no actual sweating. When Whitney was high or low not sure she did have symptoms we saw that just wish they could have saved her from destruction!!

She won a talent show where she performed Whitney in '94 at the age of 16
My nose is clogged from crying…. I cried watching her for the first time…. I can’t .. I can’t stand it.. what a gift.. We love you Whitney.
It’s now 2024 but I felt drawn to the 80s instantly! Breathtaking performance with those incredible vocal ranges. Whitney is damn proud of you, Glennis. ❤
I’m really surprised she’s only famous in her home country. She’s amazing - one of the best singers I have ever heard. Stunning vocals.
@KLGoodman did I say she needed to be famous in other countries? No.
I just said I’m surprised she’s not famous elsewhere because of how amazing she is.

How do we convince her Family, as they sit there with arms folded, looking angry while watching this? Something's not right there!
Very true.today is the first time I ever heard her sing and I must say she sounds almost identical to the late Whitney Houston.

Devon Guy Christina's shitty technique is nothing compared to Glennis Glace.
LoL 😅
Watching this in more than 100 times... again and again! Love you Glenis big fan from Borneo!!!
OH MY GOD, AS IF WHITNEY HOUSTON , MY IDOL, CAME BACK TO LIFE, AFTER HEARING GLENNIS GRACE SINGING " I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU"! TRULY AMAZING!!!
This is absolutley unbelievable!! its like listening to whitney young again.. Truly amazing artist 👏🏻 Its a shame tho we now live in a world where real quality is really rare to be recognized 🙌🏻
I closed my eyes and got chills on the first run. This is spot on.
I wish this lady could do just 1 song with leona Lewis. Such an incredible voice ❤❤
Glennis Grace has gone way beyond amazing. This is absolutely incredible.
No one and i mean no one will ever replace Whitney Houston but this woman is amazing
It's not about replacing someone tho 😁
Black lives matter exactly. No one ever said that Whitney would be replaced by this woman or any woman... and we already know that she can’t be replaced.
Thats obvious. She does tributes of Whitney
Watch Belinda David's at the Apollo, just as good.
You should listen to Belinda Davis from South Africa and her rendition of the same song and I believe that she's better.
She’s on America’s got talent go and show some love and support and Make sure y’all vote for her to win this year.
Damn was going ro check if she had any album on spotify, not yet i guess?
Omggggggg ! I seen many copiers but she’s jus blessed even looks like her ! Same talking voice too ‘ Just amazing !
It's sad the young generation don't reconize true talent
Each previous generation said the same thing. :-)
@@Vince1648 yea but its bad now they not even singing these days
Rashon feel the same way Pittman she’s the bomb.com 😍
I am 16 and absolutely love Glennis Grace I have for years now. In my opinion the best singer in the world with the most beautiful voice and best covers not every one in the younger generation hates this kind of music I love it!!!!
@camilia Ha you're the same age as me and I concur, Glennis is the best now. I really hope she gets signed and that we hear a lot more from her soon!!!
Saw Whitney live in concert eight times in the eighties and was blessed to have talked to her twice. She is the greatest female singer of all time. Glenn’s is the closest I have ever heard in regards to sounding like Whitney. She sounds beautiful and I would love to see her in concert. Keep in mind there is only one Whitney and will never be another.
True, like there always will be one Glennis.
this woman is so phenomenal. on one can sing whitney houston song as good as her. i´m blown away
im no doubting that this is Whitney she came back through this woman in that moment..beautiful..xxx
I can't stop listening.She can hit every note and hold them like Whitney did ON THE BODYGUARD ALBUM where they made it sound perfect.NOBODY can touch Whitney but Glennis is now one of my favs!
WOW!!! Is this the same Glennis Grace we saw on America's Got Talent the other night? Oh my god! This is the same song that was played at Whitney Houston's funeral. I cried my eyes out during her funeral and this song has a whole new meaning for me now that she is gone. I cried my eyes out again hearing Glennis sing it. Glennis, you have done a magnificent job singing this. I wish you the very best and will be voting for you on AGT.
Tom Bell yes
defenitely
Me too. Came as a surprise. I realized Whitney is gone.
Addicted to her singing Whitney's songs. She is so good, effortless and real professional.
Whatever God gave Whitney, he gave Glennis some as well. He wasn’t stingy! 😭😭🥰🥰
This woman gave me chills. I closed my eyes and felt in some way Whitney was with us again. This is an angelic voice. I bet she prayed to Whitney before performing. There’s only one Whitney but she’s the closest second I’ve ever heard to cover her songs. What control!!!! I’m crying listening. I wish Whitney was here to see her perform but I know she’s happy smiling down from above glad we have another voice to make us smile and entertain us.
The arrangement of the music, the musicians, the gorgeous saxos and this Glennis - I.N.C.R.E.D.I.B.L.E!
A little respect the saxophonist ;) she played with prince , Van Morrison.. Love here !
Richard Scholten She is awesome too. I have no problem watching and listening to hot female artists.
the saxophonist candy dulfer is great
OMG she gives me goosebumps just like Whitney. This beautiful talented lady needs to go big!!!!
Glennis Grace had a very difficult career after her debute in 1994 in the Netherlands. There were only three channels back then, and more than half of the country watched the Soundmixshow. She put on a stunning performance with a Whitney cover, and she won the show. It was the best performance during the 6 year existence of this show. But after that performance , her career didn't went in a good way. She had bad management, the public wasn't interested and forgot her. Nobody remembered her anymore for years. In 2006, her management didn't believe in her anymore and they broke the contact. She didn't made enough money for them and her albums flopped. Nobody was interested in her golden voice (she's by far the best dutch singer ever). She had to perform as a sidekick in other singer''s concerts or as backsinger to make money. It wasn't until 2011 that her breakthrough came in the Netherlands, when she decided to sing in dutch instead of english. She won 4 times in a row best singer award and got invited in shows. Because of youtube, the international and American public picked her up and began to analyze her videos and performances (mostly young people). Now is the time to become an international superstar. She was born for it, but you need the right time and the right moment, and luck. She got a bit lucky Whitney Houston died and people are nostalgic. Glennis gives them that nostalgic feeling back. Alot of people couldn't believe she didn't have an American contract yet. But Simon Cowell, who always tracks potential new talents, saw her on youtube and people's reactions (the music industry changed, people want special performances, instant emotional gratification, authenticity, age isn't a big factor anymore). Simon immediately knew now was the time to give her the podium she deserved, 24 years after her debute.
Thank you very much to explain what we have not many videos of her before 2011 and why she isn't an international star now . I was sure she had a bad manager ...
She probably had a bad manager and bad songwriter, but also, the Netherlands was never the country for female powersingers. They are not used to that. This is probably also one of the reasons she was underestimated. She began to switch to singing dutch songs around 2010 (she was not very enthusiastic about that, but her management asked her to do it), and due to a renewed interest in songs in own language in the Netherlands (because of more nationalism), she became more popular and known and got invited in some shows on tv. Still, she had to perform in hotels and small concerts to earn money. If she is coupled to a good American songwriter, she could become the next female powersinger. She fits more in America than in the Netherlands. That's why alot of American people asked why she wasn't an international superstar yet, while the dutch never asked themselves that question.
@@bavarois25 if the Dutch people are not very enthusiastic about her incredible voice we will be happy to keep her here in America.
Ramzi I wish her all the best and hope she’ll win the America’s got talent but if not I pray that Simon or a great producer will give her a break she deserves! Aside from the fact that she’s sounds like Whitney,her voice quality&style is so pro,!absolutely amazing she even had a great voice than any other singer in the U.S who sold albums even not good in live performances,those artists voices depends on autotune inhanced sadly truth! Gooo for glory #glennisgrace Im one of ur big fan from the Philippines
We don't ask that question because she was already famous in the Netherlands.
Also you are acting like we don't have any good female performers besides Glennis Grace, which isn't true at all.
I've heard many artist attempt to do Whitney Houston songs and this is the ONLY artist that is SPOT ON.

Facts...
Charice is the one to beat, search her.
Benji, have U looked up Charice lately? She hasn't sung Whitney, Celine or anything worth listening to since around 2013? Her life's choices threw away her blessed gift. No more Charice 😣!
Coupydog Why because now she’s a man ?!
Goosebumps! Undoubtfully this is the closest cover of Whitney's 'I Will Always Love You' I have ever heard till now. It comes to my attention that most of the time, Glennis Grace uses the same vocal technique Whitney used in all her songs (head/chest voice, falsetto, vibrato, adlib, dynamic, arrangement), which we all know, is not easy at all, given the fact that many singers have failed in attempt to do it. Miss Glennis just knows 'how to do it correctly'. In my humble opinion Glennis Grace deserves not only the respect for her attempt to follow Whitney's style faithfully, but also our praise for her achievement to do it flawlessly!
Wowww she is amazingly great singer. The best cover of the song...❤❤❤
Her voice is incredible! What a powerful soulful voice!
Thank you Glennis Grace for sharing your awesome gift and the life time of hard work to bring it to us,, what a blessing you are,, what else can I say but,, hope to see the show in the USA 🇺🇸best singer on earth 🌏
Glennis is Dutch!
She did not cover it is just like original, it is her respect for Whitney, she would proud of you
Actually she did cover it like the original out of her respect for Whitney.
Whitney Houston's version was a cover as well. The song was written and performed originally by Dolly Parton in 1974

Christina Aguilera bitter XXLtina fan 😂😂😂 just because your fave failed Whitney doesnt mean other singers will too.
Yes
I just listened to jennifer hudson sing this in a tribute and she strained in hitting the notes. Glennis did it with ease. To me Glennis is still has the greatest of voice of all time!
Onze aller,allerbeste zangeres! Go girl!❤ Gr uit Hoofddorp 👋
