OH WOW THIS SONG SMASHED TO BITS BY THE GREATEST SINGER/VOCALIST ON THIS PLANET IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS THAT HAS HAPPENED TO MY SOUL. WHITNEY HOUSTON IS SIMPLY WOOW. I ADOOOOOOOOOOORE THIS LADY AND HER TALENT!!!! XXXX
Whitney Houston is in one person the female version of myself!!!! A WALKING TALKING HIGHER LOVE!!!! WOOW xxxx THE GREATEST OOOOH YEAR MY LORD Gotta bring it to ME !!!! xxxx xxxx
WOW!! I Thought I knew all of Whitney's music. I have never heard heard her this song until now. This songs takes me back to the 80's Whitney. I loved her then and I love her now!! I love Steve Winwood's versions but it was refreshing to hear Whitney's version. I will always love Whitney Houston!!!!

Never heard this before. Thank you! She used to sing with such exuberance! She's still fantastic, but I think she can still get that joyful spark back. It's hard after you hit 40.
Happy Birthday Whitney! I thought that I had every cd U ever released! Well they got me on this one! I love it & it is right on time for 4me. Love your sound Whitney! I love you today, yesterday and forever Nippy. I hope you have a good birthday today. May all of your wishes for the year ahead, come true! B good 2U first & love yourself boo & don't take no shit. I am singing: Happy Birthday 2U right after this and sending the vibration of love & well wishes 2U with every note. -David Russell
God...this song is 80s glory in pure, unfiltered liquid form. I've been familiar with the Steve Winwood version since I was a child. I didn't know that Whitney had covered it until just three minutes ago. Hearing one of the true goddesses of the 80s cover one of the songs I associate most with the decade is a total thrill.
Of course, Whitney's version is better than Winwood's. No hate on Winwood, but Whitney could cover almost any pop song and make it better. Whitney = 80s goddess.
Whitney Houston will be premiering not one, but TWO new videos in the upcoming weeks. The video for "I Look To You" is set to debut on September 10th. While the clip for "Million Dollar Bill" will be premiere on September 16th. In other Whitney news, Whitney will be performing "I Didn't Know My Own Strength" on The Oprah Winfrey Show at the personal request of Oprah herself.
Actually the original "Higher Love" by Steve Winwood won the Grammy for Record of the Year beating out Whitney in her only nominated category that year
Whistle starts at Eb6 usually, but thats doesn´t mean every note which in obove Eb6 is automatically a whistle note for example Christina can go to G#6 with just headvoice and Mariah´s notes above Eb6 are always whistle notes...it depends on the singer itself and not everybody has whistle skills.
I wonder why this song wasnt marketed I mean im a huge Whitney fan and didnt even know she recorded this until like 2 years ago.I think it could have been a decent hit for her.
I want this song but is very difficult to find, it's an excellent song, and even in limewire, is impossible to find....amazing song for amazing singer.
I love the pictures, especially the one where she's sitting on the couch. I love this song. CutiKaci is always bringing us the best and most unique of Whitney. I LOVE IT!
Love the pictures used in this video by the way :)

Did Whitney hit a whistle note at 2:36-2:37?

its a C6, no whistle here^^
shacks29 2 years ago
wht note makes it a whistle!! And how do you tell note when singing?

shacks29 2 years ago
Explain the notes exactly. l see wht you mean but it would be better if l could hear it. How do you point out a specific vocal note
fireandicecube 2 years ago
an Octave goes :
C,C#,D,Eb,E,F,F#,G,G#,A,Bb,B
it starts at C and ends with B no matter if its the 5th or 6th Ocatve...
# = sharp, its a semi note
b = flat, its also a semi note
Telling a specific vocal note is not that easy, you need a absolut pitch or atleast a relativ pitch.
Listen to vocal range videos on YT and memorize the notes they singing, train your pitch.
You can develop relativ pitch, absolut pitch is native you can´t learn it.
