The Voices sing...A Song For You

[walmike79]

Whitney OWNS this performance! :)

[mynameisrashad]

- don't say WHITNEY is STILL untouchable , becausee even she admitted tht her voice comes and goes ; alot of ppl can TOUCH thee " VOICE " now , but bCk in her prime day she was unstoppable ! a real fan would understand tht instead of berating every great singer after whitney ! #JUSTsayin

[MrSoulshock4444]

beyoncé is my girl but she sounds a hot ass mess when put next to whitney. you are embarassing her with this video. actually this song should have been left untouched after whitney did it. both christina & beyoncé made complete fools out of themselves TRYING to sing this song. i guess they thought that their 12 year old fans would never find whitney's version smh...

[Micknrock]

2.06 speaks for itself, whitney is just a different class to everyone else

[MiniMichael]

I think Beyoncé is the next best contender to Whitney Houston. Whilst I don't like comparing talented singers, Whitney is unreachable and this is common knowledge really. Beyoncé nontheless is in her own league, considering her young age and her genre. Love them both.

[iloveabba91]

It's Whitney who first sung this song with soul, totally different from the Carpenters. If Whitney hadn't done this song, there would be no Bey or Chris' versions.

[angelfac309]

LMAO!! Who put this video 2gether Beyonce is using an echo Machine and Whitney is singing live and Vocally Whitney Houston remains undisputed by all of the 00' men and women, Whitney Houston is a Queen and living legend beyonce is just a pop star from the best girl group destinys child which she should of called Kelly and Michelle cause she needed help singing this song Christina Aguilers version was better then b's as well

[Mehrunissah93]

I honestly didn't like Whitney's version. I think Donny Hathaway with Aaliyah following did it best. I'm about to listen to Christina Aguilera's, but I like Beyonce's after Aaliyah.

[ArchiducDeBelgrade]

Dont compare Whitney and Beyonce..Beyonce is great singer..but Whitney is Whitney..in this video its very obvious.

[marsvsbounty]

love it

[lazydirtyandirrespon]

I think Whitney in her 90s prime could have done the definitive version of this song. So many artists have done their take and in my opinion there really isn't the the definitive version yet. Many are very good, but not "it." Maybe Jason Mraz can do it justice.

[Westarist]

pppffff There's no doubd Whitney is simply the best,, It's so stupid tto compare both ov them! Beyonce is a very good singer but, Whitney's talent is just ireplaceble! lol

[dastaylor]

Beyonce's One Dimensional voice should never be mentioned in the same breath as Whitney Houston. Period. Beyonce's voice consists of soft and loud modes and that is it, no variation in color, no pitch or tone changes. Whitney caressed songs, Whitney worked them out in her own special way.

[Superoyalty]

Whitney doesn't even sing like Whitney anymore, but trust and believe they both respect each other. Beyonce told Whitney to come back to the game.

[Trammelbach]

I am a huge beyonce fan. I actually like her voice and tone better than whitney`s. But of course there is no doubt that Whitney can sing her ass off! She Has amazing techniques. And Beyonce is doing great with her voice and career. One day she will be up there with all of the other big and amazing names. But not yet... Oh and whitneys headvoice is unique! i love it!

[ANDREWPUFFY]

WHITNEY #1

[ANDREWPUFFY]

I did my homework & yes B can sing but WHIT SANG. Don't be a fool 2 believe B can b compared 2 Whit Wash your mouth out with soap 2 even acknowledge B being call The VOICE LISTEN TO WHIT SO POWERFUL. Whitmay NEVER be able 2 capture her past talent but u CAN'T take away what she created as being #1 singer since Minnie Ripperton & B isn't the next unfortunately she will never b able 2 claim the fame of Whit not because she can't sing but talent like like WHIT only come once every blue moon.

[whnippy123]

Theres only one with the title " The Voice"

Whitney Houston; shes ten times better, but B does what Whit doesn't, like B can dance circles around whit, and Whit can sing circles, mountains, worlds, over B;

Whit is the vioce

[Chimier]

None of these versions were really excellent, but Whitney's was the best.

[StarpeemReturns]

3 of the 6 big Divas have sung it, Christinas aguileras done a good version too...

We need Celine and Mariah and Leona to do it now!!!!

[hellomarshmallow]

pffft, Beyonce can totally hold the notes if she wanted to, it's just she has a different style. I doubt Whitney could do the technical vocal acrobatics as good as beyonce so it evens out.

[sugamama4]

@hellomarshmallow are you serious lol

[jverhagen1992]

There won't be a new Witney, every artist has his own unique style!

[WH012]

Beyonce is a very talented singer, but "THE VOICES sing...A Song For You"????

Beyonce is great but only Whitney is "The Voice". that's Whitney's tittle...

[simdisiwe]

I don't like B vibrato like wobble

[singmeasong]

what's with beyonce's echo?if i was singing with alot of echo, it would annoy me alot, doesn't she find that confusing to follow the song's melody?

[XxAorynxX]

maybe whitney just wasnt my time...but i dont understand why all of you pretend shed be a god or something...

of course shes amazing! but 2:06 shes the onely who can do that?! so what do other artists the whole day?

BEYONCE and WHITNEY have awesome vocals, so for me THEY are the best, but theres no dofference between...just in my ears

[joohsay]

@XxAorynxX wow, u need to listening more carefully.lol

[EJEngrff]

Is ridiculous to compare WHITNEY to Beyonce, she`s nothing to do with Whitney`s voice

[eevamusic]

Whitney definately oversung B, but still none of em brought any emotions in their performance...

[delocollier]

whitney makes beyonce sound like a piece of shit or turd

[ilvchrst]

Well I will say this......Whitney's voice was absolutely amazing....period....However, i am also a fan of Beyonce's voice....I feel that if Beyonce would have sung this song in a higher key, she would have done it so much better. Whitney's voice was rich and she could sing any range hi or lo. Beyonce can as well, just not with this song. It just seems she should have sung it in a higher key.

[ArchiducDeBelgrade]

Whitney is The Voice....U go Girl! part at 2:06 is..only she can do that..

[Tyrell667]

2 answer that question at 3:05...WHITNEY CAN!!! Duhhh!!!! LOL!!!

[psychospice74]

Love her, but Beyonce cannot mess with Whitney. Watch the whole version of Whitney singing this song... she held this note that Beyonce will NEVER be able to hold EVER.

[Tyrell667]

Yes INDEED

[joohsay]

@psychospice74 thank you, why do people think that Beyonce's vocals are awe-inspiring?? lol That chick aint nothing more than a puppet. lol

[GCassa94]

@psychospice74 is a C5, a note that Beyoncé can hit very easily.....

[BoxrbrefsNThongs]

whitney looks like kermit but she killing the track Bey is hurting it too.

[lmartinez77]

whitney100%

[u2jelus]

@RhapsodicAddiction U MEANT TO SAY BEYONCE'S REVERB AND ECHO IS OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!

[whitneygreatest123]

I love both of them of course but WHITNEY ate her up and digested her on this song live!!! and they were about the same age here too whitney is the queen people talking about her voice now but think about her voice is great for her age now but the artist out today whitney at their age was killing them!!! and this is fact!!!! MY WHITNEY also known as NIPPY

[RhapsodicAddiction]

ummm no whitney was 28 or 29 beyonce was like 23 or 24 thats almost a five year diff.

[whitneygreatest123]

Well even so in the same age group and now that beyonce is about 29 her vocals still does not match whitney`s at that age thanks!!!

[PePinmySteP]

whitney was 26...

[SweetSebilein]

Whitney! :-)

[pstarbll]

whitney the best

[haha2120]

just listen to beyonce's echo. LOL

[PrinceKhaalid1984]

beyonce is a good singer but theres only one whitney and nobody does it like her......whitney is an unmatched talent...

[milat87]

Obviously we know Whitney is amazing... but Beyonce is really amazing as well, and its an unfair comparison. People really do not give Bey the credit she deserves because of her beauty and her image, but she is CRAZY talented

[thdeathstriker75]

when people of good heart think of whitney, they think of VOICE. when people of good heart think of beyonce, they think of booty shaking and body slamming. not to mention whitney again.

[antemc2]

Beyonce is hardly the vocal queen....If anything wh,MC,or CA is the true vocal queens

[Electra4everB]

these two artists are in different categories all together...one...being whitney is a seasoned performer...no comparison at all...the other...being beyonce is more of a showmanship...is making her mark on the scene...but in my opinion, don't have that natural gift as whitney...there are some who were born to sing...and those who are taught to sing...

[k0k0jamb0]

i would have liked to heard beyonce sing without the reverb.

[u2jelus]

hahaha beyonce minus the reverb??? never gonna happen! she stay on that reverb echo mess

[cinqoctaves]

WHITNEY Oh my lord she was bloody amazing.

No dissing Beyonce she is a very great entertainer but her voice.......is OK, nothing amazing.Something in her voice sound very unatural,forced and her timbre is kinda irritating.

And yes Beyonce is Faaaaaaaarrr behind Whitney vocally (To RhapsodicAddiction).

[musicexpo]

I agree. Comparing Whitney's voice to Beyonce is not fair for Beyonce.

[RhapsodicAddiction]

she isnt as far behind as you all are making her out to be....Beyonces voice is continuously .....meanwhile everyone elses seems to be diminishing....unnatural? forced? hmmmm thats far fetched

[ramonsuave]

if beyonce came out at the same time whitney came out no one would have paid her voice any attention at all! good singer but even if she came out as the group En vogue still had better singers than destiny's child!

[RhapsodicAddiction]

hmm and where are they now?

[ANDREWPUFFY]

Some of us are to young and immature to acknowledge REAL talent as Whitney Houston being the greatest the VOICE #1 due ti the fact of her past drug addiction. Sorry Beyonce can sing but Whitney in her prime THE VOICE!

[RhapsodicAddiction]

one..i am not young nor immature.please do not speak condescendingly to me or about me in hopes to stregthen your argument.simply put whitney has a ver strong voice.ok we get it but beyonce has a very strong voice as well...not only that she has very unique technique, matched with range, and she can dance very well while doin that.yes whitney is the voice but Beyonce is the TOTAL PACKAGE! what a true performer should be. Maybe you yourself sir are to immature or set in your ways to realize that

[siempre2904]

I admot that andrewpuffy addressed you in a very patronising manne rin an attempt t oimprove his stance in your debate, but to imply that beyonce is a better performer is simply a musical crime. dancing might be interesting, but when yo using as well as the voice whitney houston, ou dont need to dance to keep the audience's attention. and beyonce herself acknowledges whitney to be the best. so your defense if flawed and your arguement invalid. long live WHITNEY THE VOICE HOUSTON!

[navigator012007]

yeah right! Whitney can still sing circles around her! She doesn't have her range, vocal clarity, and she doesn't have as beautiful of a voice as Whitney. Beyonce has artificial talent; the kind you practice on; Whitney's is all natural.

[antemc2]

u better tell them... I couldn't have put it no better..

[numonemofan]

Beyonce career title is not Performer, there classified as SINGERS, and Whitney is the BETTER singer... Whitney captivates, her hand movements and gestures, does the same as Beyonce's dancing, When Whitney sings its called a PERFORMANCE, people don't give her standing ovations after she PERFORMS because shes a bad PERFORMER, her and Beyonce have different type of performance styles. Whitneys accolades alon show she is the TOTAL package, from singing to acting, Beyonce is dances better thats all

[jasmineuk28]

No one on earth can live with Whitney Houston in her prime. She is the Greatest. Beyonce is a good singer but she isnt a great one. She doesnt have the amazing technical abilities that are not matched in Whitneys voice. To be a great you need to be able to do something no one else can, and Beyonce' voice can be matched, Whitneys cant.

[reemka]

Beyonce, the new Whitney ??? What have you got in your ears ?! Yes, she's a very good singer. I really like her voice and her sense of music. But she's not and never will be at the same level of THE VOICE. Whitney is still unmached ! No one can sing like her.

[Sweetmisery99]

I do appreciate this video. But to say that Beyonce is the new Whitney Houston is wrong. But to say that Beyonce isn't up to Whitney's level is wrong as well. They're are two different singers. People went to Whitney's concerts to hear her sing. People go to Beyonce's concerts to watch her perform.

[cinqoctaves]

Whitney's version is so awesome!What a voice!

And yes Beyonce is far to be the new Whitney Houston, she doesn't have the vocal chops to

[nia39]

Whitney version is soulful the way the original is performed...the echo is not appropriated for this song sorry. Sing is straight out no chasers. Listen to Donny Hathway and then you will know how the song should be song.

Whitney is the VOICE!

[mrlws18]

I love this vid! My two favorite singers ever! t4p

[rizingsenior06]

this was incredible, watching the old and new Whitney houston.They are the most influential singers of both past, present, and future

[atltallone907]

IM SORRY, i LOVE B... but she is NOT the new Whitney Houston lol.

[mickaelsurtour]

Absolutely right. Beyoncé just sing well. I mean her tehcnique, her voice, got nothing special, nothing new. Just another girlie, with a girlish voice. Whitney is a woman and her voice and technique were mature at a young age (compare her first album with the actual albums of your B and HEAR the difference)

[RhapsodicAddiction]

well obviously i mean beyonce aint ever gone become some washed out drug addict with a ruined career...

[numonemofan]

regardless her career has not reached the peak Whitneys did.. Drugged up and ruined, Beyonce in her prime is Light years below Whitney in her prime vocally...

[RhapsodicAddiction]

okkay see this is where you are wrong..whitneyss prime has come and gone...beyonce is still coming into her own....she is still growing so to assume that she is in her prime is closed minded that why you lack the ability to see her talent...you assume that because she is ontop that she has reached her prime...she is only beggining to discover her individual self and already at legendary status in the eyes of sooooo many...shes 27 whitney 40+ come one...you do the math

[TheOneHBIC]

You have a point, my only rebuttal being that Whitney was 28 when she sang at this performance.......Beyonce better start producing if she wants to be considered a vocalist, let alone on the same level as WH

[RhapsodicAddiction]

have you seen the beyonce experiance concert....her vocals are out of this world....

[ANDREWPUFFY]

Careful you never know most thought Whitney wouldn't.

[RhapsodicAddiction]

i will give you that...i spoke out of anger.....but my opinion will not change...whitney has a very good voice but people for some reason like to try and down play beyonces vocal talent to defend there favorites......Beyonce is a way better performer than whitney hands down and as far as vocals....ok she may not be at whitneys level but she is not far behind....she is up there with her..im not saying that she is dethrowning your queen..he has gained her own title up there with the other legends.

[ANDREWPUFFY]

At least you recognize Whitney as being #1

[dominick513]

beautiful duet beyonce had so much emotion and whitney was powerful this was a great pair
