This is just amazing, that an already accomplished singer/artist thought of someone else to do this masterpiece!!!!! This song is for Whitney!!!!!!!! And indeed she did a great job.
This clip premiered on a Germany MTV show in November 2000 and I remember reading that Kellz mentioned that he wrote a song for Mariah Carey, as well. Does anyone know if he played the song he wrote for Mariah?
I can't believe that I actually heard R Kelly the writer play and sing this song that he wrote for Whitney Houston. A song writer would know how it's suppose to be sung and Whitney sung it the way it was suppose to be sung.
vocal wise i like whitneys better but i love the panio. whitney should record herself playing and singing to this song. whitney does no how to play the panio. that is an instrument besides her vocals that she's able to do.
R.Kelly..Should record a Full Studio Version to this..Even though I like Whitneyes very much!!..just like how he did a recording of You Are Not Alone- which he wrote for Michael Jackson.
I noticed a few words were changed for Whitney's version. It's really a beautiful song. Whitney should have recorded it with only a piano and her voice like Kelly's version. The finished product is great but it would have been nice just to hear her voice alone with a piano.
@MichaelMarshallstar Bullshit? Whitney sounds like someone went over her vocal cords with a chesse grater! I bullshit you not. It was a big mistake when he gave this song to whitney. He would have had a big hit with it.
@stevescissors Michael, i have Whitney's new CD. I'm just telling you how i feel... "My Opinion." I feel he would have done this song with more emotion than Whitney. I still love Whitney Michael. Don't have a breakdown.
@stevescissors Thats BULLSHIT because its not even a big hit on youtube by him singing it! Whitney was the better one for it! He wrote it but look at the difference between his version and Whitney's! Last time I checke that 3,050,379 was a bigger number than 104,765!
So what, Justin Beber , Pussy cat dolls and other crappy artists like that probably have a shit load of views on their videos too that don't mean they're better. Not comparing Whitney Houston to them, but she's more mainstream than Kellz and mainstream artists are gonna have more views. On top of that, her version is the one that was released, so that's the one most people know. Unless you're an R. Kelly fan, most people probably don't even know he wrote the song
@MichaelMarshallstar what you're sayin doesnt make sense. in general, most ppl who listen to music dont even check the credits. case in point. not alot of ppl even knew R. Kelly wrote a track for Whitney Houston unless you tell them so of course the number of ppl viewing this video compared to Whitney's wont be anywhere close.
@stevescissors i posted a couple of yrs back before he gave this song to WH that she was the wrong choice. should have given it to a female with a pretty higher range voice. Houston's voice is anything but pretty , R. Kelly has a higher range now than she does. what waste giving it to her non singing ass.
Just beautiful and heartfelt. This is why he is the king of R&B and a musical genuis. Great voice, writing, composing, producing whew need I say more. I like WH but I think he should have releashed his version. Made me cry.
When I heard this song before whitney released her album I got very excited I could barely wait, Whitney didn't do this song as much justice as R-Kelly did. I love Whitney, but I really Love the way R-kelly sings, it gives me the chills!
I just love R. Kelly. This man is damn sexy. He look good and he sound good too. Nothing sexier than a bad boy with a sensitive side. And a genius on top of all that. Do your thing Kelly, you got a fan for life in me.
In my opinion, this version is much more beautiful than the album version. I've actually had dreams about this piece. I wish there were an entire mp3 of this version out.
I truly love this song. It's so deep and very emotional. This song will help anyone get through the various challenges they attract in their lives. I love it so much I had to do a cover of it as I sing it often to lift my spirit when I go through my hurdles that I create. Thank you R. Kelly for another brilliantly written song that was given to the perfect person to sing. Whitney is a delight to listen to even in her moments of tribulations.
would have been a R.Kelly classic if he would have sung it himself.. houston's version if forgetable at best. but he probably assumed she would be able to deliver when he pitched it and sold it to her. he was wrong.
wow people are so cruel to Whitney... its sad. She does an Amazing Job! and it means so much to her struggle and come through. shame on some of you people. whitney will always be whitney. kelly also did a great job.
yesterday i have been to the whitney's concert in zurich... and when she sang this song... we were all ike: wow.... she's so wonderful and i feel so honoured to have her seen live... won't never forget that day.
@yurherenow He should have let someone else sing it. He wrote it for her ages ago when she could sing. He probably didnt realise how much her voice had changed.
Wow, yeah he should have kept the song. I am a bigger fan of Whitney than Kelly but this song here belongs to him, I hear the sincerity when he sings it.
Kelz shouldve kept this song... Dont get me wrong, Whitney sounds awesome, But Kelz sounds more beleivable... Theres more urgency and emotion in his voice.
I am a little disappointed what Whitney did with this rather simple but beautiful song ( I was waiting for her response to this forever), that could have been one of her greatest song ever, but her sprechgesang and you n you n you n you is simply not good ...r. kelly got it, he should record it
Omg!!!! this is so amazing..God Bless R Kelly...hope and pray he writes more songs as such...what a very simple yet powerful piece he had written..Amazing, !!!
R kelly is the most gifted singer, songwriter, producer of the last 20 years. He can do any kind of music- r&b, pop, hip-hop, etc. And he is always relevant to any generation. But I never would have thought he wrote this one for whitney. That's amazing! Especially considering how freaky he can be at times with his music. Just a genius, and nothing less!
How cool is that Whitney has finally recorded this wonderful piece of music..R J you are a wonderfully talented musician and song writer....When I first heard this on you tube - long whle ago - I wondered if W H would ever record it but of course hoped she would. Its very apt and moving,, R J Thank you for all the pleasure you bring to our lives!
U can say what you want about R. Kelly, he is a very talented man. That song is perfect for him and Whitney, look at what they have been through. I love this song
@respectmysexii too bad she (whitney) ruined it with that horrible voice of hers.. he should have given it to a singer than still has a high register in her voice. whitney sounds like shit.
@UchihaElijah had your hearing checked recently? Houston in NO WAY sounds as good as he does on this song. it's a beautiful song and needs a beautiful voice to sing it... that leaves Houston out.
@yurherenow I agree because I like the way R. Kelly sings it. I've always thought he had a powerful voice that's always been inspirational. Interesting that she tries to stay up on the hip-hop trends (I guess just to make money), but his ballads are so beautiful. I really would love to hear R. Kelly sing "I Look to You" in full. I'm sure he must have recorded a demo for the song.
And to think we could have had this song 10 years ago. Tha't when Kells wrote it. I was just reading some comments and someone said they were disappointed in Whits new album. I refuse to buy it cuz it sounds like filler music. I expected more from Whit.
I hate Whitney's version and I think Kells should have released this song himself!! It would have been ok if Whitney did a gospel album, but on an r & b album, it doesn't work.
oh man, I think I don't want to admit it, but me too. I love Whitney's version, and her voice is so raw and so real. but this version is so good. I love it - it's sadder.
Whitney Houston is the best, but he does it very well also. But no one is like the voice! <3

it still exists thats how she was able to make another album. her voice is there and always will be. just the range is different.

I hate Whitney's version and I think Kells should have released this song himself!! It would have been ok if Whitney did a gospel album, but on an r & b album, it doesn't work.

R Kelly should have brought this one out himself as a single. He sings this with such feeling and brings the melody out so beautifully.

Yeah, I'd love to hear R. Kelly's demo, if he recorded one, which I'm sure he must have.

oh man, I think I don't want to admit it, but me too. I love Whitney's version, and her voice is so raw and so real. but this version is so good. I love it - it's sadder.
