  • Personally i think it's stress that's caused her vocal problems.. sadly.. i am a singer and i lost many people i love and went through alot of stress and lost my voice for almost a year.. but that's just what i think :)

  • ela é fodaaaaaaaa!! divaa

  • perfeitaa

  • she sounds great to me.

  • Tadinha...

  • When did strength and strong become Shtrenth and Shtrong?

  • stop blaming drugs cocaine does not mess up your voice!!! At the height of her career she was using heavily and sounded great

  • thank you whitney is an amazing woman and her nottiham performance proves it so look out

  • Its sad... She was one of the best singers ever. Thats drogs, not practice like some people think. She shouldnt sing anymore, it hurts to listen...

  • @sarkahin This was an off day. Of course the drugs changed her sound but she still sounds great. Slowly through her tour her voice got stronger and stronger. I saw her in one of the middle dates of the tour and she sounded amazing! :) Look up the video titled "Whitney Houston - I Look to You - Nottingham HD" to see how different it is from this! :)

  • UMA LIÇAO DE VIDA!

  • I think she looks great. Maybe she doesn't sound the way she used to but, I think time she will. People are so quick to critize. I think the fact that she got out there and did it is amazing and takes a lot of guts. I have always loved Whitney and always will. I don't like what she did but, I still love her. I think a great singer and is still a Diva.

  • GIVE WHITNEY TIME, SHE HASN'T PERFORMED IN DECADES, THIS IS HER FIRST TIME STEPPING OUT. HER VOCAL FOLD WILL GET USE TO THE VIGOROUS EXERCISES OF PERFORMING A CONCERT ONCE AGAIN. SHE WILL BE BACK 'VOCALLY' BY THE END OF THIS YEAR. JUST KEEP IN MIND THAT PERFORMING CONCERTS ARE VERY TIRING, SHE IS DOING GREAT CONSIDERING HER CIRCUMSTANCES. THINK Michael J said during his rehearsals MY VOICE IS STILL COMING BACK AND REOPENING. Thats why he pre ran his show,

  • Whitney sounded much better than this when I saw her on her 2010 Tour! She sounded fantastic, like she did at the AMAs! :) Fans told me that her voice goes croaky like this at the end of every month because of "her once a month" and it appears to be correct as her voice is great for the concerts on her tour until the end of the month and of course - thats what the media publisize :/ She was fantastic at the concert I went to! :D

  • who cares if she can't hit the notes she used to? she was who she was then and she is who she is now. The problems with Americans is they support you and love you when all is good for you and when your life is good and when life happens to you for whatever reason or choices you made they desert you. Come on people she is still Whitney and no one can ever be her.

  • It's unfortunate that her voice has deteriorated, but it was a choice she made to use drugs- so now she's dealing with the consequences of it. It's painful to watch her sing nowadays. Her body is just too worn out...

  • Its amazing, no matter how bad she sounds, her fans still love and follow her. True love there. I think Whitney should have gave it at least another year of rest before singing again. I wish her the best and happy she got her life back again.

  • The audience is so desperate for the old Whitney. Sad.

  • this beautiful woman live experiences I would never live

    her voice ? It's a pure diamond.

    let her sing

    this is an emotional performance of a strong woman.

    stop to garbage press.

  • she can't even speak, just her some rest and she'll b fine(as if)

  • i loveee thisss womann sooooo muchhhh shes the bestttt <3 xxx

  • Nunca deixe estar na presença de Deus, pois as demais coisas ele acrescentará.......

  • ggbhh

  • I want to cry for her. My heart breaks for the loss of the voice that she once had. I hope and pray that God allows her voice to return even greater than before. God bless you Whitney.

  • @raberyleti God DID bless Whitney from the moment she was born.....and she thanked God for her 'blessings' every time she recieved an award.....she also thanks God at every concert when she performs 'I love the lord'......but she goes of stage and SHITS on what God gave her......

  • Stop the press... she is gone... her voice is messed up from them drugs and she also has not trained her voice properly for the comeback.... first she should have trained before she came back on scene... all of her songs sound weird since the comeback .... love the music and that's it... journey318 stop the press and whoever else stop taking up for her!now pray her strength in the Lord...lol!

  • Amo

  • The edited the hell out of this video for GMA

  • @DooDaht yes I noticed that!

  • You guys are sooo cruel to folks. If you had any common sense, you would know that she was very emotional singing that song, especially since her Mother was the one that she looked to and stood beside her. You guys don't like to stand by anyone when they are going through things in life. When you go through, check asd see how many folks are there for you! Double Standard PEPS, but yoi took time to listen so obviously Whitney is back so get off the voice and stay tuned.

  • she was just not in full voice today.. thats all.. its early.. she probably stayed up all night excited.. and couldn't sleep.. she's human. she's whitney.. and her presence is good enuff.. its the same woman we all fell in love with.. and i love HER.. her voice will comeback.. and is getting better as we speak!

  • i love whitney but this is not singing by anybody standards. If a unheard of artist put on a performance like this everybody would be asking her not to give up the day job but because it's Whitney, we pretend and try to convince ourselves that just maybe she might be able to recapture that voice that we know and love. That voice is gone forever.

  • IS NOT...

  • Esta mulher canta demais,e Deus deu uma chance a ela,de ter a força de levantar depois de um grande vendaval de problemas...ela merece todo nosso carinho e respeito,como tantos outros que queiram se levantar,acredito que esta é a nossa maior vitoria em puder contar com esse talento SEMPRE.PARABENS WHITNEY,VOCE É MUITO,MUITO ESPECIAL PRA NÓS BRASILEIROS..TE AMO DE MONTÃO...

  • @romeropmota CONCORDO COM VC........ LUZ PARA WHITNEY HOUSTON

  • all people make mistakes but we all have the right to forgive is divine and it comes from within us, our hearts regardless of our beliefs of our religion, ethnicity ...todos erramos mas todos temos direito ao perdão e ele é divino vem de dentro de nós,do nosso coração independente das nossas crenças da nossa religião da etnia...

  • damm crack is bad cuz she has mad talent

  • Es una pena que semejante voz haya quedado en tan deplorable estado, ojalá sirva para que la gente le diga de una vez por todas NO a las drogas.

  • I have to agree this is one of her more lackluster performances, but other ones i have watched and seen are alot better than this particular performance, keep pressing on Whitney we are here for you...love you with all my heart! You can only get better from here!

  • I think this song is about her relationship with God. She has reached the bottom and found her way to light. Ofcourse it is emotional. And you people should be ashamed of yourselves saying that she is still doing drugs. Her voice breaks, buts it comes from her heart, because she found God .

    Love you Whitney

  • Her voice doesn't break, she's got crack pipe throat. She can't even hold a high note like she used to.

  • @scorpiomatty y do ppl like u have to say dumb shyt like dat???? i mean if u gonna criticize look n da mirri=or b4 u open ur mouth or type to say anything bcuz nobody haveroom to talk about anyone...everyone has problems

  • I am sad to say this is diabolical..she sounds awful and looks like she is still on drugs to me.

  • Whitney is back ! She will be on AMA's Sunday night and then on Dancing with the star's Tuesday night. Welcome back Doll ... We Love You :)

  • Aretha is still performing and awing crowds to this day (see her Rock HoF 25 Concerts on here). It's like going to the gym after years; it's achy the first few times; but once you get into the groove, it becomes relaxing; by the middle of her tour she should be close to her old self again (hopefully). Plus, this event was FREE so it's not like the crowd is getting ripped of at all. She'll need to bring it for her $100+ events though; if you don't like it, see Aretha instead before she passes!

  • She is a mess here vocally. A mess. Watch her appearance on Letterman from the beginning days and enjoy that. She was amazing. Glad she is alive...but its time to put the mike down.

  • listen to Whiteny performance at the italian, English X factor, Wetten Dass and oprahs. then you tell me where her voice is. well you are one those hater that doesnt like her. so dont listen to her and stop spread around hate.

  • whos spreading hate? i love whitney. its a fact she sounds horrible in this video. why should we ignroe that and praise her. that doesnt make sense. she sounds much better at wetten das indeed

  • I think you're absolutely right,people here are so stupid and they give you thumbs down,but it's true,she lost it completely and the reason why,it's because she's still doing drugs,she's half talking the song and has no reach...you couldn't have put it better,she's a mess.

  • @arvedsin

    i always loved her voice and i wanted to hear her sing again, i have to agree with u guys that her voice is not even 1/8 of what it was. how can u not damage your vocals with years of drugs. She cant reach the high notes at all, her voice is very raspy, i don't think she'll get it back (sad to say), i love whitney, but her music highlights are in the past, i am really glad she is trying, but her voice sounds like she is a smoker. Drugs change your hormones which changes your vocals

  • Thank you for this gift..I'm Italian and I'm a big fan of the fantastic Whitney...she is one of the most bigger singer in the world and I hope that this album can have huge success that it deserves!

  • I was there...I can´t believe it! :D

  • 1:50-1:51 you better growl church girl!

  • No matter what, Ms. Whitney has been a gift to all of us. She may have taken a detour in life, but she has giving million's a gift, one that will never ever be forgotten. She was all but 22 years old when I first had the pleasure of seeing & hearing her perform live @ The Boston Music Hall, where she was flawless & brought the house down. Events like that don't happen to many folks in their entire lifetime, but w/ Whitney it's happened many times. Let her back where she belongs & God Bless You!

  • I'm not sure where she belongs,doula1956,22 years ago,she was flawless,she had a voice and she belonged everywhere,but now,where's her voice?did you listen to her saying"help me out"in the middle of the song?that's not the Whitney I remember,face it,the song is beautiful,the studio version,but live...she shouldn't dare.her voice is forever GONE!!! and it's nobody's fault but hers.sorry!

  • Anyone with good vision and a set of ear can knows she was emotional the whole song! AWESOME!This is the Whitney you would get on a sunday morning testifying through song.You cant look at your mom cry and not do the same. Im a true whitney fan and appreciate the good and bad. I appreciate that she never lip syncs.You always get the real deal, I can listen to recordings anytime. Live concerts are once in a lifetime and priceless.Noone would pay a copper back penny to see anybody leaving comments

  • listen to Whiteny performance at the italian, English X factor, Wetten Dass and oprahs. I do believe in what you are saying but she is back and that s why I am so glad for it

  • she is done , her voice is gone

  • her voice is gone i agree!ireland here she sang on xfacter and after she sounded out of et!talking to presenter!bye whitney

  • The REAL crackheads are those who still believe Nippy is a crackhead; they don't follow the music news very well! If radio won't keep the album selling, next year's tour might (complete with copies of the CD for sale at every venue). Don't count Whitney Houston out yet even if she doesn't get the credibility in terms of hit singles and awards out of this album.

  • Hey Sister you are going find a good man to love you the way you want to be treated like a queen very soon. Don't worry we know that you love Bobby, but you'll get over him with lots of prayers and meditation. Your prince charming is coming soon but choose carefully this time.

  • Whitney I love you. I would like to see you and Bobbi Kris your daughter do some duets. She has a beautiful voice. Do not listen to critics just do your thing. There is no one that can touch now or when ever. Need more songs from R kelly for you.

  • beautiful!! she will be better and better!!

  • anoited beautiful

  • If you heard that and you tuned into her video that says a lot about you

  • quelle misère..........

  • O que houve com a voz dela....OMG!!

  • The hair on my arms r standing up...

  • she is very pure and down, she didn't care if she can sing it good. what matters to her is that she can sing her music and soul to god and to her fans, and its a very very huge strength to go through.shes a strong woman. I love her before, but i love her more now than before!

  • i love this song

    <3

  • Whitney, we love you. Love this track on your album. It takes an enormous amount of courage to come back after what she has been through. Whitney is one of the most famous people in the world. That weight is enormous, something that none of of us can possibly relate to. She has shown enormous courage and I'm happy that she is on the road to recovery. This was an emotional performance for her, and her Oprah performance was phenomenal - her best in years. God bless you Whitney! We love you.

  • its not the point rather or not she sounds the same. if you don't like the new sound don't listen. She on the right track stop trying to bring her down.

  • but am im right???........YES

  • This is called a Live Outdoor show. Not a Miley Cyrus concert. You Go WHITNEY!!!! Good job!!!

  • she very courageous...i dont care about her voice because i know it will get better but iam just thankful she is ALIVE thats what matters the most but noooooooo some people just want to think of her as an songbird ..she is person first ..I give her much love going out there trying ,knowing good and well people are going to be critical now than ever before

  • freaking crowd is so annoying.

  • yo its obvious that she cant sing as good as sh used to so anybody who disagrees is just in denial

  • Well obviously u didnt see her on Oprah days later when she blew the roof off with I didn't know My Own Strength and I love the Lord! She had grown women and men crying in the stands! GMA wasn't supposed to happen but she's a trooper and showed up even when she wasn't feeling too good! Besides, Whitney's singing to the the lovers! I'm glad she didn't care to mime either! Whitney all the day!

  • she use to have a good voice....

  • I really don't know what happened to her voice this day but watch the Oprah Show she sang live another of her new album tracks and she just did great her voice is not like it used to be but Whitney it's not over AT ALL this is just the begining of a new Whitney Houston yall she still and will always be the ONE the best singer in the world!

  • not her best. voice was def giving out. but her album is great and she redeemed herself simngin on lady O

  • HER VOICE IS GONE!!!

  • uhuh, i think the voice is gone.

  • Oh wow...her voice doesnt sound at all like it used too...but she will still be one of the greatest entertainers of our time

  • great quality

  • wonderfulll!!! SHE still sings for real ,not like those dumb teenpops nowadays..a good singer is hard to fine and whitney still makes us feel good and happy.She a real singer,keeper and the best out there...!!

  • Funny to see this because GMA actually dubbed a few parts of this performance with a recorded track, like the first chorus. Compare!

  • You are absolutely right! Absolutely right! I noticed that the moment I watched GMA.

    I also think it's funny just listening to the little comments the audience members say!

  • I can´t believe whitney is singing. That´s the way crack abusing goes. Sorry whit, it´s over!

  • Go whitney sing it girl u was horse as hell but u still sing let been mariah or any these other singers they would lip sing

  • what are u talking about?!!? SHE DOSNT SUCK!

  • hey, why does everyone want to be Simon Cowell or Clive Davis! Don't judge! Can you sing as good and look as good as her at age 46....than u're talking! I was actually 3 seats away from Clive Davis at the Oprah taping. She did so well and gave you the chills if you were there. I was lucky enough and she also sang a gospel song which was amaazing and you know.....she never really left! God Bless her!

  • What was the atmosphere like when she was singing on Oprah? I wish I could have been there. I have just been rejoicing all week for what God has done in her life.

  • Its so sad.. but her voice is ruined!! :(

  • Her voice is very very damaged, however with work and rest and singing she'll get it back... and if anything she'll have a different voice and sound... and a ton more soul... She still has a ton of vocal quality, phrasing, and style. However yes it is damaged. You can't do what she did and not lose your voice, but I suspect she'll be healed and singing like her old self soon...

  • Whitney Houston will always be the best female singer!!

    No weapon that is formed against Whitney Houston will not prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against Whitney Houston in judgment will be condemn.

    I decree that Whitney Houston will receive a 100 fold blesses and Whitney Houston will be bless exceeding abundantly above all that she can ask or think by the Power of The Holy Spirit in Jesus Christ Holy name. Amen.

  • she was horse dumb asses!

  • I agree and she blamed oprah lol I saw her performance at oprah still suck lol hahahaha

  • Yeah i know Her Oprah Performance was not that good either People Whitney Lost her voice but i am glad she is finding herself again but Whitney is not the same... But we all make mistakes i wish her the best!

  • yeah I agree..she shouldnt blame the tv program oprah coz I just saw her performance at oprah still suck she sounded like at GMA... its ok if she blamed it its very understandable if she did great at oprah which isnt at all

  • to the woman on here yall know all the stuff we go through no matter what people say your not going to make the lord jesus is faithful

  • i respect her, but her voice is almost gone :-( it is a shame what her lifestyle did to her :-( all the best to her !

  • She still over coming her pain n the things that she been threw...May god bless whitney n everything she do...Just a little more time n she a be good.....cryn

  • listen whitney did a 2 day interview and a performance right before this with oprah so her voice was strained and i seen her performance on Oprah and she made me (A MAN) cry, usually artist dont do interviews then sing then sing live they usually let their voice rest for atleast 2 days, but she still did her thing on here fuck all the tone deaf haters on this channel

  • She didn't sound good at all.

    I like the song, but i will like for her to sing it the way she did in the studio!!!

  • Nothing but love for you Whitney! Welcome back, baby girl and continue to do your thing and succeed in the face of all these itty-bitty, insignificant, 2-cent haters!! God bless you!!!

  • I love you Whitney Houston!!!

    I hope that one day may be near the best singer in the world!!!

    Is the queen of sound with an incredible voice!!!

  • I wonder if the negative will also go visit her amazing performance on Oprah. Probably not. lol. Intersting that many prefer to watch this over the Oprah performance. Interesting.

  • So many hateful comments toward a Lady who has given so much of herself to the whole world.

    It's so amazing how critical some of you are toward Whitney.

    You same critics can't handle your own measly lives, your bills, your credit, your jobs, your family and you haven't and will not put out 1/5 of the time and energy this Lady has to the world.

  • I sooo agree with you...

  • AAAAAAMMMMMEEEEEEEENNNNNN!!!!!­!

  • We all can't be like you (the haters), and frankly, I don't want to be.

    Whitney, you go Girl, I'm praying you get your life back and that God that you have had an Angel sitting on your shoulders directing you back to the place where your fallen star can rise again.

    Hater.....Get Back....Whitney....You Go!

    I'm looking to You to make us all feel like Million Dollar Bills......!

  • Canta muito lindo!!!

  • Hmmm... after all my strength is gone, or all my voice is gone?? Hate to hate, but she needs to quit.

  • eres la mejorrrrrrrrrr

  • I love whitney, I really do. And I empathize with all she has gone though. this is an amazing song, i just wish she would sing the song like she does in the recording... I've always had that problem with her live performances.

  • we love you houston though you let us down getting with that twat a brilliant thing turning your life around we also pray for kerry katona to step up and turn this mess around her around cos she also can be a good role model,

  • great crowd. I love how they support her even though she is obviously sick or has overused her voice.

  • With enough rehabilitation and practice she can probably undo the majority of the damage to her instrument...good luck baby! AND TO ALL THE HATERS...WHERE IS YOUR ALBUM? BITCHES!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA

  • she should just lipsync at this point ... it s really really sad ... still love her to death though

  • It really doesn't matter what negative comments are made. Whitney Houston is a child of God and nobody can ever take that away from her... We all have fallen down at some point thank God He's the only one who can judge us!!! Thank God for 2nd chances!!!

  • OMG SHE SOUNDS REALLY BAD.. I thought someone was drowning their car in clorox. Whitney, seriously are doing this???

  • Incredible how many suckers buy into this absolute bullshit.

  • i love and adore you whitney on so many different levels!! PEOPLE MUST REMEMBER SHE IS ONE OF THE HIGHEST SELLING ARTISTS, MOST AWARDED FEMALE, AN ESTABLISHED ACTRESS N PRODUCER, THE ONLY ONE TO HAVE 7 CONSECUTIVE NUMBER ONE HITS, AND THE VOICE(A NATIONAL TREASURE) IN OTHER WORDS SHE DOES NOT HAVE TO PROVE ANYTHING TO NO ONE..ARTISTS THESE DAYS ONLY WISH THEY CAN ACCOMPLISH WHAT SHE HAS!!!

  • whitney u go girl , this is your best performance ever. u really sing from you heart!!

    we support u always

  • è tornataaaaaaaaaaaaaa **********************

  • OMG her voice is gone. :( Given this performance, it probably took them 7 years just to get a decent performance engineered for an album.

  • God is to be praised... you're so blessed Whitney Houston

  • May nik name best friends smale heppy lol party pies love heart tu you smale beautiful baby.

    May verjeardag op 23/ 9 september / 2009

  • This was hard to see...she lost her voice!

  • she's so wonderful

  • how do you know this song is about her mother?

  • Deus te abençoe sempre;

  • 2:53.........que merda foi essa que ela fez.....WH vc ta um fracasso como cantoraa....credooo...quando c fala da mariah todo mundo cai matandoo,dizenu que a mariah nao canta como antes,que a voz mudou..mudou sim,,mais ta arrebentando ainda,consegue notas altissimas ainda...é só ver em I stay in love,WBT,...porq ninguem comenta sobre a voz da WH agora,pora ta horrivelllll

  • quando c fala de WH...aew todo mundo só olha pro lado de ela ter vencido as drogas..isso é tudo mesmo(força pra ela)mas a WH cantora ta simplesmente horrivelllllllllllll.....sua voz nao mudou...ela perdeuuuuuuu a voz.....como cantora nota 0...

  • I have always loved Whitney's voice. She once had the BEST voice on the planet. But on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being Whitney's 'I will always love you' days, this performance rates no more than a 5 at best. I hope a vocal coach can bring back the voice that crack took away but I doubt it.

  • Well, she's pretty choked up in this one, so you shouldn't judge her voice based on this performance.

  • these are the damage due to drugs in the year she was facing, we aren´t anyone to blame her, everybody can fall into the drugs but few are saved, she will take your voice soon with god help, please do not say stupid things.. Thanks

  • there are tears em my face, I cannot stop cry , I'm excited, thanks for this video and still believe in whitney, she is the best and deserve all the good, the love, the love, that emotion.... from Venezuela Francisco Thanks guys... for this gift.. Good look.. we look to you...

  • I am in tears thinking of her struggle....It's only by the grace of God it wasn't one of us. I love you Whitney!!!!

  • Only by the grace of God? Were you close to being a drug addict or something?

    If God controls people's drug habits, why is he allowing anyone to be a drug addict.  That seems cruel, hon. Why play favorites with "grace"?

  • DIVA!!!

  • Amen! Great!!

  • Please don't call me racist, faggot, hater, dinosaur,nigger or any of that. I adore good music. This is NOT good music. It is not even up to par. NO I CANNOT SING.

    But it does NOT take a genius to see that Whitney could not sing as well as she did in the 1980's past compared to these current performances evidently showed on YouTube. Whitney, hire a better training vocalist.

  • Hoarse, Tired, Exhausted, Oprah, UFO, WHATEVER!!!

    You can pick and choose any excuses you have but the bottom line is Whitney did dreadfully HORRIBLE in this song. She does not have the same voice as she did in the 80's.

    I adore Whitney's music back then and I still respect her but please do not be blinded by the OBVIOUS truth about her current condition of her voice. NO OFFENSE.

  • Estou muito feliz por sua volta..sucesso sempre!...

  • SO DISAPPOINTED

  • Wellcome back Whitney. Hope one day you will sing "I will always love you" with Charice. Take care and god bless both of you.

  • I watched the Money Laundering video about Gloria Estefan Criminal. You should too!

  • Great video, thank you!

  • she so fab she is grate.

  • Das Ist Fantastisch!!!

  • her pitch is soo sooo soooo low. As if a man is singing...

  • is this a song or a poem? obviously she just cant sing anymore. Good thing she bacame really good in the past. Thats what she is remembered for but he talent now is soooo deteriorated.

  • In all honesty, I didn't think this song was so great. But I was brought to tears by it. I felt Whitney in it and that was all that mattered. Practic makes perfect and with a few more of those I'm sure she'll be flying again. Go Whitney!

  • I dont care what you people said, I can bet my last dollar, those people who are bitching Whitney cant pull a note to save their lives. Give her a chance she has been doing this for a while, cant you hear she is hoarse. The only thing wrong about this is her trying to hard to please her fan. Dont get carried away whitney, dont let American fans break you again, take rest when you need it.

  • omg..this is betta quality than the actual program...I feel like im at the concert, good job!

  • you go whitney!!! still a legend lol that was so funny tho
