[SendinaNippy]

Whitney is the BEST! ♥ come on! :D

[kmaur21]

This woman and sangin fool girl can blow!

[teto691]

she did a good performance!

[glenedward]

Tragic. Drugs destroyed her voice and she is, clearly, now busted.

[Ceedsmith]

@glenedward Drugs DOES NOT destroy vocal chords.

[c6h12o6glucose]

@Ceedsmith obviously they messed hers up. And she had to take the kind you sniff, that fucked her breathing and her vocal chords.. two kinda important elements to singing.

[caduteacher]

@Ceedsmith OH NO? WHAT ABOUT THOSE THROAT CANCERS THAT SWEEP AWAYS YOUR HOLE THROAT BECAUSE OF THE USE O CIGARRETS FOR EXEMPLE

[Ceedsmith]

@caduteacher When I said drugs, I meant actual drugs and narcotics, not cigarettes. Of course cigarettes screw up your breathing and such...I never said they didn't. She has issues because of those as well. But I'm not sure what throat cancer has to do with Whitney or what I said. AND she was only smoking cigarettes because that is a way to get over actual drug addiction.

[caduteacher]

@Ceedsmith My goodness, u're saying that cigarrets are not drugs? come on! do me a favour! And please, I wanna believe that u're capable enough to to understand that when I said that even cigarrets can cause throat cancer, imagine what they could to to your chords, it's so obvious, any children could understand that. And plzzz...do not spread your idea that cigarret is not real drug, it is!!! the only difference is that the goverment gets taxes on it!

[Ceedsmith]

@caduteacher Now did I say cigarettes aren't drugs? Don't put words in my mouth. I simply told you what I was referring to in my first post (narcotics) and then acknowledged that cigarettes can mess up breathing and air passage through the vocal chords, but not the chords themselves. Vocal chords are tiny muscles. Bad VOCAL habits such as overuse and over-singing are the only things that will screw them up. So once again....drugs do not destroy vocal chords.

[ohwhitney]

Whitney voice here is ok but she really got better as the tour went on. Listen to the Milan concert.

[76767654]

Will 4ever be the QUEEN and the worlds number 1 DIVA! <3<3:)

[toreyt]

yes....yess.....YYYYYYYEEESSSS­SS!!!!!! The voice!!!! Love it!!!! Don't mind the haters. Like you said in "For the Lovers"...you ain't singing to them LOL.

[ShrikeCult]

This used to be a good song with the original arrangement - now its a great one!

[bambola269]

MY BIG GOD++++++++++++++++++

[QueerSwede1]

AMAZING!

[omeirdeleon]

Just watched her sing this song on Oprah from 11 yrs ago.. OMG what a difference a decade makes. She has lost most of if not all of her soprano. Ms Houston is now an Alto I think if she realized that she would actually sing a bit better.

[MsMig88]

@omeirdeleon Most altos cannot hit any notes whitney can.

[kmaur21]

@MsMig88 Whitney is coloratura soprano but now she sings more in lower register for comfort at times, but she is dramatic coloratura soprano!

[Jw231s]

@omeirdeleon YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!!

[aharw]

i think it's the weather... she seeems to give really good performances in colder country and the hotter ones... see her performances in russian... amazing...

[kcity28]

I knew Whitney had it in her! She sounds great! I'm on to the media now... they focus on every bad performance she does singing "I will always love you", her most difficult song to sing. I've looked up a few of the other performances on this tour and she sounds better singing most of the other songs. Ofcourse nobody uses this clip to give us an accurate or well rounded sum up of her tour. You always see her voice strained singing IWALY. Whitney is doing fine.

[Fabian81]

Goosebumps wonderful acoustic version ... she here trully sounded much better than in Australia trully does ...

[lavann02]

okay nothing but love too nippy!!!!!!

[wehb1]

hot

[toreyt]

Now that's what I'm talking about. Great rendition.

[RikoIsHere]

I love whitney but will someone inbox me why she's always coughing? i'm just curious

[ohwhitney]

@RikoIsHere She has been sick.

[RikoIsHere]

@ohwhitney Like what's wrong with her?

[ShrikeCult]

Beautiful arrangement - she should rework all the My love is your love songs that she currently has in her show into new ones like this. Very interesting to hear and she grooves nicely with it.

[matiasolo]

She did it great!

[TheCharleyrocker]

This rendition is so awesome.... she did it!!!! I love her voice!!!!

[MsIslaBonita]

Love, love this new jazzier version of ILFTB- Whitney's voice is smouldering like flames over hot coal. 1:25 - 1:30 is pure power 2:29-2:35 gave me chill.I believe her when she sings she know how to break a heart cuz she is singing with that much more conviction now,

That ending note wa sick! Go head Whitney, your fans are with you and pulling for you. Great interpretation and sounding good!

[JamieHumsWallyPees]

fecking awesome!

[JohnDaniB]

She has so many versions of each and every one of her songs. When you go to see whitney-you know you are going to see a LIVE concert! I love her! SHE IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bambola269]

YES, THE POWER IS HERE+++++++++++

[futurestar88]

OM, her high registry is amazing, she can still climax, which a lot of singers of today don't have. The industry does need this. Welcome Back to your throne Queen "The Voice" Whitney Houston

[chanelfolsom]

yes shes still my best singer whatever rumors i heard ,i wanted to see her again.

[Dam112]

I think this is an amazing rendition, how she just sits and sings, i dont quite know whatya mean by high register though, she didnt hit any high chest notes and hit low falsetto notes, not that they were bad, i personally thought this was amazing and think her voice is getting better

[futurestar88]

@Dam112 Ok every true singer has a high registry it's a climactic point in the song, Whitney Voice was at a high range, and if she were on stage with someone like beyonce or rihanna who really don't have much of a high register then you would see the difference, and Mariah can't hit those chest note she was hittin low or high. So don't try to politely hate. Whitney Your voice is incredible you are the best on your worst day

[Dam112]

haha what are you talking about politley hate, im just stating a fact whitney did not hit above and Eb5 in chest or falsetto, stating that isnt hate so stop acting all high and mighty as if your opinion means more than fact. Im not even guna respond to beyonce/mariah statement, this performance is brilliant cause a year ago she wouldnt of pulled those 'non-high notes off. and im just happy she isnt afraid to sit and sing and just improove so think what ya like with the ''polite hating''

[futurestar88]

@Dam112 It is what it is, and a high register is voice in an upper register beyond its normal range, i never said anything about a falsetto that was you, and you should relly do study of music beyond american culture, cause you kind of have a narrow minded perception of music. And if you weren't going to respond to the rihanna/mariah comment you should have never mentioned it, but it really doesn't matter whitney is still the Queen/ the best.

[Dam112]

@futurestar88 you know nothing about my study of music and i dont even study american culture in music or anything im not american,,,,,and high register is exsactly that...a high register, which she doesnt hit or peak at in any note she sings here...its not a voice in the high register and i wasnt only refering to falsetto anyway

[BLACKADAM]

Now.....THIS I LOVE!

[feezfe]

best live 2010 for me very beautiful

[pattjor]

a Cajon peruano!! an peruvian instrument , her musician is playing! really nice...

Whitney we love you, God bless you, you are still here with us! God is really good!!!

[coolchris12345]

Brilliant Whitney lovin the new sound!! She's still got the skills, the years of work she put into her voice and the state presence which captures an audience...the new voice is sounding great and when she sorts out her breathing and keeps growing in confidence the voice should flow!!! Let's just be happy she's hear still and giving us what she can xxx

[Tum2185]

Fantastic!

[u2jelus]

wow....just absolutely fantastic but then again its Whitney and that's just her.....FANTASTIC

[lavann02]

this was amazing i cant find other words!!!!!!!!

[ohwhitney]

@lavann02 she had an URI. But my point is even when sick she still sings live. THAT IS A TRUE ARTIST!!!

[HERBLANDZ]

She singing to bobby and them rocks.The voice is free

[7y7rgt6yu]

SHE"S BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[secretarygreene]

fabulous ms nippy. Bravo. can't wait til you come back to the states. We love you in Philadelphia!

[ABBEYCOL]

I love this!! I've listened a few times and got the vibe and f**king love it!! Go Girl.. all the way. xxx

[dakidd72]

I actually like this rendition of ILFTB. She's truly singing from the heart on this one....maybe to a certain person who she's no longer with?

[MsLoveMe27]

This is my song...but not the way it sounds now

[Captainalexable]

This makes me sad.

[whitney2005]

u r sad because ur idol MC is drinking her ass off instead singing those ballads!

[Captainalexable]

What? I hate Mariah's voice. Whitney has always been and still is a much better singer than Mariah.

But this is still disheartening.

[ohwhitney]

@Captainalexable Whitney is better than Mariah even on her worst days. I have to disagree with you about this performace though, I love that fact that She changed it up and made it a jazz number and I think she sounds great. GET IT WHITNEY AND YOU STILL HAVE THAT MAGIC IN YOUR VOICE.

[zanoases]

Captainalexable Why do Whitney Fans always hatin so hard Mariah?Just because she can still sing, had more success in one decade then Whitney and Mariah Voice was voted by worldwide voting over whitney, she was just #3. I love Whitney but Mariah anyway so much more superior from her debut to now! from soprano to alto, nobody ever will sound like her but a lot do sound like whitney.

[whitneylover76]

@zanoases Whitney has a legendary status that Mariah will never reach. mariah has made hitsingles, Whitney made classics. And we all know how Mariah got her number ones right;)

[steverino83]

nice jazzy arrangement........i like this arrangement better than the original. The original was good but you couldn't dance to it........this arrangement would work great for a slow dance .........nice job. And Whitney is sounding great here.

[manjalera]

Love this new jazzy arrangement. Nobody can argue that she put her soul into this one. You go girl!

[xtina4400]

!! ABsolutely breath-taking...You are the greatest,...My love is your llove darling:)))

[erestun]

BRAVO Ms Houston!!! So happy that she returned to music - she is so unique in every single way!!! One of America's greatest musical exports ever!!!

[mynippylove]

love it! oh Whitney love you, i want the same soul in Paris!

[bambola269]

magic+++++++++++

[GHStijl]

She is a true singer. One of the BEST as she always will be. She is a perfect example of an artist that sings with her hart and soul. Treat her kind!!...Love Her...<3

[TheBeggerzz]

wow, i really didnt expect this :)

she really has progressed and i wish that all people who have only heard performances such as GMA should really listen to her now :D :D :D :D

[alannak7]

I can't stop watching this! She is SO naturally talented!

[jorindeh]

Cool! Whitney is beatboxing! LOL

[ThaShiznit1986]

This new arrangement is SICK!!

[Nehemiah111]

This song is so ironic....Whitney, all the girls who have come after you, "learned from the BEST", which is you girl! THE BEST !

[kmaur21]

You guys got to hear ILTY tokyo Feb 13, her voice is better than ever!

[Nehemiah111]

@kmaur21....Yes kmaur21, I just listened to it, and i was literally in shivers....She put that old school kinda Whitney flavor on it! It was amazing....

[Nike251]

where can we watch

[ktrkhoustonfan]

where can i find it i dont see it anywhere.

[DriveAustra]

The people that think Whit is back on drugs really don't know her. Bobby was her drug. She put him and her bad habits behind her. This is how Whitney has always enjoy herself live on stage. She is a true artist. This song has a jazz flare to it and she is feeling the new groove...

[dagll]

Whitney is the best although she's not ready for her old numbers just yet. She does seem to be improving between each concert quite dramatically though. She's still got the old runs n ad libs goin but she is quite raspy n breathless.

I'm really startin to like the new sound though..

I hope the rumour that Whitney is back on drugs is not true although this performance wouldn't really serve useful to disprove that.

Great performance! Whitney will always be the VOICE!!

[NpyIllusionistHstn]

I love your phrasing of "Dramatically Improving".

That is exactly what I feel when I hear this: A dramatic improvement.

My favorite girl is Miss Whitney Houston

[dagll]

AMEN..

[karan33774]

That note...'too laaaAAATE' WOW!

She killed this song. What a performance.

[SongChumper]

She's Sounds Amazing I Dont Know What The F You guys r Talking about!

[NippyFan100]

o come on people yaw must be on crack to espect this lady to sound like the 80's shes a grown woman not a 20 year old wit the same girly high voice. in whitney prime during the body guard she didnt sound like the 80s her voice statred to mature around im your baby toniht out of that gurly type voice. i have nothing is not even close to sounden like the 80s wake up people. shes 46 not 21

[TheSanctifiedSoldier]

Thanks for the post...this acoustic version is just the creative direction she should go for her live shows until she learns to master her new vocal sound...

I am a musician and musicians should evolve, for whatever reasons, good or bad, evolution keeps entertainers fresh and interesting...Whitney's downfall gave her grit and deepened her range for these jazzier nuances...great for age and great for her new style...

Maybe people can try to forgive the past entirely and accept the change :-)

[AndreFLaranjeira]

I really love this new version, to me is better than older! More acoustic! And in this song her new voice is great!

[TheSanctifiedSoldier]

I agree, the original version was very sad and torch sounding...it had a horrible dissonance that resounded pain...I totally felt it but it reminded me of the sadness in Billie Holiday...I remember being afraid that we were gonna lose her when this song came out

[Nehemiah111]

I must watch this video everyday, AS I have been doing since it posted lol... great job Whit

[CallYouTonight]

Too LAAAaaaaaAAAAAAAA...TTTTEEEE

[MrStyle23]

She did pretty good here. I like her when she sings in her range. I don't know why Whitney is trying to sing her ballads in the original key. She really needs to bring the key lower. She doesn't have that voice anymore. She sounds so much better here!

[kmaur21]

Because she obviously still has the old range! People don't understand Whitney still has those good days where she could hit them high notes. Here she is clearly sick working with what she has, but Whitney can still hit the high notes. I don't believe that she can't get up there no more, cause when she does go up there it still has the same power resonance especially when the pipes are clear.

[MrStyle23]

You're obviously in denial. Whitney isn't near the voice she has. Some singers are usually a hit and miss type performance but in these 2 concerts she was hit and miss in each note.

I love Whitney and I'm not trying to tear her down. I bought the album and it's great but she clearly doesn't sing like 1999 and is nowhere near 1985 voice.

You need to wake up! Maybe Whitney needs more practice or voice lessons but "The Voice" should have went with smaller venues.

[Neno8403]

Well, it's hard to accept Whitney's "new voice"...but in her defense, she did have vocal nodules that went untreated for well over a decade ... that coupled with the fact she obviously wasn't taking care of her voice for the last decade because she probably really didn't have any desire to sing ever again ... and then after she decided to take the chance and come back, she got surgery to remove her nodules. That surgery is very risky and can actually damage your voice even more. So who knows.

[ckmissghana]

Yea i think so too but based on her performances since her comeback this was very good and over the years her voice has changed alot but she still knows how to capture her audients

[Topher286]

Judging by her recent album sales and the overwhelmingly positive reception she's received around the world, I'd say most people aren't having any issues accepting her "new voice". The issue is so-called "fans" refusing to get their ears out of the past. The Bodyguard voice is gone, forever. It was gone in 1996, 1999, and it's certainly gone now. Embrace Whitney for what she has to offer NOW, or move on.

[Neno8403]

I agree. People want 1985 and 1991 and 1994 Whitney back, and with or without drugs, that voice was gone. Natural aging and wear and tear are almost as big a factor as her smoking. People refuse to accept that. I'm hoping with regular use of her voice, we'll get at least 1998 Whitney back or something close, but if we don't, whatever. I can definitely accept "I Look to You" Whitney.

[NippyFan100]

amen your right its been gone sence 1996, natrallly especiallty with all the concerts she has done in her carer

[ckmissghana]

Yea i think so too but based on her performances since her comeback this was very good and over the years her voice has changed alot but she still knows how to capture her audients.

[TheSanctifiedSoldier]

I do not know what your background is in recovery but allow me to explain professionally that recovery takes, sometimes, as long as the actual years of abuse to have one's life fully restored..some people loose mental health and physical health, muscles weaken and in some cases atrophy but with an effective recovery plan, people have been known to get most of ALL that they've lost, In Whitney's case her voice was already jeopardized before drugs, drugs exacerbated a problem her family has...

[TheSanctifiedSoldier]

So I am confident that If...I say If Whitney is taking a holistic approach to her recovery, which would include fitness, and proper nutrition she, like Chaka Khan and Natalie Cole will get better vocally...

Be mindful also that Whitney is 46...menopause may already have begun for her to some degree and that coupled with the road of recovery will affect hormones...so there is hope because there is hope with recovery and sobriety...

Practice is correct/rest/water/fitness-car­dio/vocal coaching 2

[kmaur21]

Actually she sung this song the same key as the recording, to be honest she hit the F5/G5 in chest at the end.

[Slave4UBB]

DAYUM GURL!!!

[cranberyy22]

go girl...

[xtina4400]

"Rikolshere" You are absolutely Right .....sooooo great to hera the angels again!!! xoxox

[RikoIsHere]

OMG THE BEST PERFORMANCE SO FAR sit that ass down whitney and tell them how to do it wow

[WH012]

one her best songs in my opinion, love this song. didnt really like this performance vocally, but shes always got that head voice going good.

[matiasolo]

The power is here

[spiritofelijah]

You betta SANG the song woman!!!! She still has that power and tone in her voice....unbelievable soul!!

[kaasdewaal]

Jetro!!! Hello :) Sounds awesome**

[christina030378]

wow this woman really strongggggggggggg..i cant wait to see her here...god bless her..luv you whitney

[gosty111]

even with THAT voice....she's GODDESS!!!!!

[Nehemiah111]

Amazing! Bravo Miss Houston. I cant get enough of this version.

[Chimier]

Her breath control is coming back. 17 seconds from 4:29-4:46. Get it Nippy!

[Chimier]

She is KILLIN' those riffs at the end!

[kmaur21]

Chimier you know she that same riffs on ILFTB Grammy 2000, I learn .......... the same exact one, but this performance is way better than Grammy 2000 performance. Those riffs are crazy only Whitney can do that!

[kmaur21]

That heffa better do them riffs 4:09-4:15. I want to smack Whitney off her chair for that! Girl is too BAD vocally on her worst day!

[toreyt]

OMG u better sing this song Whitney! My God what a rendition! So proud of you!

[futurestar88]

Well i saw her in moscow and she wasn't coughing, nor was she sweating this perfusely, and she sounds amazing here, as well as moscow. . .

[kmaur21]

Exactly here she was sing Moscow, she was just plain a little hoarse due to climate there. Whitney here still ripped to have a cold.

[dare236]

wow!! amazing

haven't heard her singing this song for a long time! and what an amazing job she did! her voice is getting better and stronger! can't wait for more performances from her!!! GO WHITNEY!!

[CandyBlingJC]

I can't wait to hear how she sounds when she hasn't got a cold. WOW!

[matiasolo]

The best is back!

[baz1000]

whitney has suprised even most of her hardcore fans by displaying vocals of this quality considerig all she has bee through. Whitney gained celebrity status & DIVA-dom back in the glory days but now she is gaining the respect she didnt have previously.

[kmaur21]

Yall did not hear that high note 3:50, she still has that upper register, she was sick here.

[charlieiscool1000]

wheres the Million dollar bill performace?

[jakeandcoco]

amazing woo

[SavinoHunnego]

wow, i love to see she's getting her voice back..she sounds softer..with more modulations..more whitney

Amazing!

After all that she's been through..i think it fair to say she is the best....no other human being could sing like her after so much drugs and pain.

Love you Whitney!

[kmaur21]

That is truth! All she been through its amazing she could still sang like this!

[kmaur21]

That note is 3:50 is very very high!

[CountygeneralER]

In this very song..you can hear she still has it but it just doesn't come out yet..and that's more than normal! She will get better and better after she is used to these big and difficult performances..it's outside..that's hard!

[JamieHumsWallyPees]

I love this performance! Its like the MLIYL tour all over again! without the short wig!

[CountygeneralER]

I like it too!

[dreamdate]

nippy's back! kick ass whitney!

[SeveralMimi]

1:28-1:29 wasn't even hoarse there. I love her

[kmaur21]

She sick and still ripping it. Whitney is a beast vocally. It ridiculous that she can still sing no matter what!

[kmaur21]

I hear a F5 3:50 and she did it with ease, and My Love is Your Love she went higher. Even on very sick Whitney day she going to hit at least F5 in chest at least.

[kmaur21]

It actually F5#

[prinzcharm]

that run at 1:28 was so powerful and clear.. wow.. she's getting better

[Nehemiah111]

Yes Whitney! I love it! ....

[ElenaBizina]

Can you just not love her?! I am thrilled to just see her in action!

[fubiskcb]

thats great... go whitney

[ppiotrek151]

O my God!! excellently!! Whitney is the best forever

[benneke1978]

wow i now she stil got it
