  • i love this so sweet

  • Cissy, From day 1, God made you really pretty - your physics and your daughter whom you rightly described as "a beautiful flower". The love and closeness between you, your daughter and her own daughter makes me cry a lot for each and every one of you three. Nothing anyone says now would heal the pains in you and Bobbi. I speak from experience. Whitney is now surely with God who is watching over you and Bobbi. May Almighty God shower you and Bobbi with His Healing Grace, in Jesus name I pray.

  • Some one on here said that Cissy is out of tune, when she is singing harmony, and "curling in and around the melody", but she is definately in tune.

  • Is this a different performance from the same concert? There's another video with the same setting but both sound much better there.

  • @operamusicfan I think someone has done something to this particular one cos i've also seen the other performance which sound much better.:)

  • Nothing is so good it lasts eternally.

    How true.

    I don't think Cissy would have ever imagined she would outlive her legendary daughter.

    Such a shame that Whitney's talent was matched only by her self destructiveness.

    She will be sorely missed by all.

  • Whitney is my fav a HUGE fan but the version of this song from the british soundtrack is my fav (and the version from her rebut album was the first time I heard it) still nice to see this live cause I havent before

  • wow Cissy is so out of tune at times, but that's fine, I guess she used to be a good singer at some point

  • @buenosdiers yes, when she was younger she had a voice similar to whitney which means whitney gets her vocal texture from her mom :) but as u know age will change the voice .

  • Whitney, you can sing with the angels now.

  • WoW!!!

  • I love you Whitney, sleep with the angels, sing sing sing for GOD now !

  • Before I was a Whitney fan, I was a Cissy Houston fan. I cannot imagine the pain you must be feeling now. But know that God used you to give the world this amazing, incredible gift. Thank you. Be proud. Know that Whitney is with God, and shining like the angel that you created. May God's healing hand touch you and help you through your grief.

  • Beautiful, Thank You Whitney & Mother Cissy We Love You!

  • listen to the words -- look at the expressions on her mother's face -- She was trying so hard to tell Whitney something but she didn't listen. Things might be different if she had but its too late now.. I have such a heavy heart. My dear child you will be missed more then you thought. You were perfect.

  • Great video Mother and daughter together. I'm sure Whitney's mother will cherish times like this.

  • you love whitney

  • Sad...and what a voice Cissy had as well. She could've been huge commercially if she hadn't gone into gospel onlly.

  • @Tombabos In the other hand, so glad she kept her talent to the Lord. She´s still alive besides everything else. Commercial is usually full of sex, drugs and a lot of things that destroys oneself.

  • @Tombabos She is probably still alive because she uses her annointed voice to uplift the soul. She wouldn't be true to herself if she went down the same road of her daughter. RIP

  • @mrigmaiden1 It's sad what happened to Whitney but I'm sure she's in a better place now.

  • so beautiful to see a mother,s love it,s like god,s love for us god sustained her mother so she could save her daughter and keep her with us for one final movie Sparkle

  • Wow amazing and what a voice did that woman bless her child with xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • They penetrated my core.

  • This should be Bobbi Kris singing with Whitney 30 years from now.I sympathise with bobbi kris because she is going through a lot of pain.

  • what a waste... leaving this world at your young age..... but you chose to be where you were before... but i love u still.... your songs has made me strengthen my belief... that i can sing too...

  • this is so inspiring!

    

  • Ohh Wow ...I'm crying ......so young to leave sniffffffffffffff

  • Beautiful!!!

  • Whitney's talent ran DEEP---in her DNA!! Doesn't get any deeper than that!!!

  • gosh i cant believe shes gone. Wat a beautiful soul...gone..too..soon...

    :'((

  • Saw the funeral today. Heartbreaking...

  • Nice and sweet!

  • het mooiste nummer vanWhitney Houston

  • Tears...

  • So deep and touching. Such a tremendous waste and needless loss of life which had so much talent and beauty. Alcohol and drugs destroy but worse those around her enabled.

  • Whitney's mother is beautiful....has such a wonderful smile just like Whitney.

  • Oh Cissy, Cissy, God bless you and keep you in loves comforting arms.

  • 2:00 No one in your life is with you constantly!!! True.

  • I don't think there could be a worse pain than loosing a child-a human being that you birthed, raised and loved with all of you heart. I pray for Cissy and Bobbi Kristina. This is a beautiful video.

  • Cissy lost Whitney the daughter, the child she carried and birthed, not the Whitney of the world and the fame. Her sadness will never cease. How do you ever recover from losing a child? RIP Whitney.

  • I cant stop crying i pray that her soul rest in peace

  • A beautiful mother and daughter relationship....we love you Whitney.

  • talento de família!!! ta no sangue!!!!

  • Minha Diva!

    

  • We can truly see where Whitney gets her grace and charisma from.

  • oh, words cannot express the sadness that her mother and her daughter Bobbi is feeling right now. We know that God is going to strengthen them to make it through this trial in life. We must pray for the family.

  • Beautiful, beautiful, soulful voices. They compliment each other so very well.....

  • a beautiful rendidtion of the song. Their voices blend soooo well together.. my goodness.. I wish I had this on a DVD somewhere. Awesome, what class and grace mom and daughter share.

  • R.I.P Precious Angel

  • Wonderful memories of a family...singing together full of love and admiration. Words are so touching like they see what was to come....so sad. RIP Whitney. You will always be loved.

  • this soo unfair i hope her mother knows not she better place is not suffer and bad people how was beside did nothing to help her.rip queen

  • meraviglioso duetto! sarai così per sempre nella mia memoria! R.I.P dolce Whitney! gio

  • Beautiful, amazing Whitney!

    The day my father died (I was 17), I watched Whitney's concert on my terrace, volume up high, and I felt better, even good. So, Whitney, you are now together, and today I'm gonna listen to your "I wanna dance with somebody" and feel YOU within me...

  • Cissy was kind of struggling. One of those few moment you wish auto tune was used. Well even Whitney had her moments where she was struggling. I'm quite sure back in the day Cissy could belt them out as good as Whitney. I still have love for you Cissy for bringing into this world such a beautiful woman in so manys, thats touched so many lives. Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family. God Bless

  • PRACHTIG JAMMER DAT WE HAAR NU MOETEN MISSEN

  • This has always been one of my favorite songs by Whitney. I love that her mother duets with Whitney. RIP, Whitney.

  • May God bless her soul. My blessin go out to the family.

  • My condolences Mother Houston, thank you training Whitney up in the way she should go, she did not depart from it - she rests now, she'll be caught up with us to meet HIM in the air!

  • lawl, whitney died earlyer than her mum.... ( thats how life ends , if you use drugs)

    so childrenn , drugs is badd, okeyy..

  • @nassimindahouse1996 Good for you to get on your soap box to speak ill of the dead. Must me nice.

  • :'( Whitney! Such beautiful talent! I hope you are now finally at peace. This is my fav version of this duet!!

  • It's good to see them together, cissy my heart goes out to you and may your babyrest in peace

  • in romania atunci cand o mama isi pierde copilul este cea mai profuda jale caci nimeni nu-i mai aduce copilul langa ea comunitatea este langa ea asa cum sunt sigur ca toata mamele din lume sunt langa dvs.

  • My prayers and support to Dr. Cissy Houston now when her daughter departed just ahead of her. God wanted just to hear Witney{s voice closer. Love u and your family sister Cissy.

  • my heart goes out to cissy ....

  • @hellochigs : me and my daughter sing together too..it's nothing like it, soooooo!!!!! special..

  • @elihyah yet BOTH whitney and her mother are legends...but mariahs mom is even an opera name (tho she is much better than mariah)

  • @pollywalsh100 its an amazing soulful cover of an amazing ALW/ABBA musical number. even andrew loydd webber said he loved it. this is awesome.

  • SEI STUPENDA!

  • Wow Whitney looks so much like her Aunt Dionne Warrick in this video!

  • They are beautiful together, they are grand.

  • Cissy is a very beautyful old woman !

  • @pollywalsh100 don't be so Difficult, difficult, lemon difficult.

    I love one can make such generalizations about "Americans." You silly rat tart.

  • not to mention the fact that you aren't taken the African-American heritage of Gospel, Soul and Spirituals into account. Welcome to cultural competence....

  • @pollywalsh100 ASS.... why come on here in the first place... this is singing from the depths of one's soul...GOSPEL...CHURCH....!!!.­...ignoramus.....!!!

  • Beautiful Voices sad story if you could only see the gift she was entrusted with and beat her demons so she can use it to her fullest. God Bless you Whitney!

  • she's so proud of her mother, and she is so proud of her daughter....

  • Great(:

  • ooohhhhhhhh this is nice. you can feel God's presence! :D

  • Is that Whiteny's mother. I'm not so kean, but I do like Whiteny's other songs.

  • @elihyah why you hate so much! this performance is so unmatchable. MC and her mother used to sing well but nothing like this

  • @elihyah Lmao ahh no

  • is it just me or is this awful? flat off key and in the words of simon cowell "self indulgent" get the auto tuner out

  • love you whitney omg she is the best and her mom love her ,too kissssss

  • ze blijft toch de beste zangeres van de jaren 90...

  • i knew her mum could sing but damn! very raspy, soulful RAW talent!

  • My Lord, I've just been to Heaven! It has to be genetic. Thelma, Dee Dee, Dionne 

    the BEST family of Women Singers in the World!!

    Thank You Ladies!

  • So well sung by both divas. Cissy has so much soul it's outrageous and thankfully never abused her gift like her daughter did. I bet she could still do this

  • can someone please explain the lyrics?

  • can someone please explain the lyrics?

  • whitney's voice was incredible, she could have been the biggest artiste in the world after michael jackson but the drugs ruined her. lets pray for her, she can rise again!

  • @jmforeveralways1, Whitney's voice IS incredible-she's back unlike Michael may he R.I.P

  • Whitney voice was hoarse here but girl can blow on her down day!

  • Guys, I am an up and coming SINGER on YouTube with a lot of passion and respect for artists and fans found through these videos. I’m an old soul singer looking for some old soul listeners. SAMI J. is the name. Nice to meet you :)

  • a perfect strong symbol being a woman...fabulous number!

  • The studio version on her album is WAY better than this live version. Great song.

  • It sounds just beautiful !!!!

  • Well go ahead Mom & mommy's baby!!!!!

  • i like this video for me whitney is the best singet of all time......

  • this video makes you wonder what whitney's daughters voice might be like.

  • San47di I guess you read that person about their comment on Cissy Houston. Crazy huh...she didn't know what the hell she was talking about and you gave her the 411 on Miz. Whitney's great mother! Whitney could only shine this well coming from such huh?

  • Check out Cissy in this newly posted vintage video!

    youtube.com/watch?v=Wzbv0IqfP7­k

  • Good stuff

  • Better than Paiga nad Dickinson!

  • Cissy Houston sang backup for Connie Francis.

  • FANTASTIC!

  • ING LING SPAR KING SPIRIT /.\ MAMA & DAUGHTER ♥ OM ♥

  • I Know Her So Well,

    Like Mother like Daughter,

    Great Duet.

  • Whitney's voice was uncomparable from 85-94. It breaks my heart to hear her now. This was when the signs starting showing that she was taking care of THE VOICE.  The version of this on her Whitney album is better than this.

  • Thank you so much for uploading this.  I have been trying to find it since I seen the concert!

  • wish whitney goes well..

  • All i will say is

    Middle age Cissy>Middle Age Whitney at singing

  • i love Cissy voice any video there dionne and cissy live?? if i know they have a video

  • I have to admit that their version is much better than the original. Maybe that's because they have something in common.

  • This is a classic moment showing Whitney & her Cissys such great talent...I hope Whitney can find her way back !!!

  • I was thinking the same thing. From what I read it looks like Whitney is having some more bad times--I hope she survives. I LOVED this video. They were both great!

  • @dbodenmill Yeah, we should also hope Amy Winehouse find her way back too.

  • at least Amy hasn't done any irrepairable damage YET!!!

    whitney should be served as a warning to upand coming vocalists - she is a woman that had it all and the voice of an angel (her early work (before this -from 83 -91).

    Now she's a shadow of her former self trying in vain to sing her OWN songs! and yet she had a voice in a league of its own.

  • @taurusg32 Mariah is better than her. Always has been. MC's voice is in a league of its own, not WH.

  • @driftingdrought taurusg32 must be from the planets of the apes!

  • @driftingdrought Hahahah...are you ill?Mariah better than WHITNEY?No way,Whitney is the Queen of Voices!!!She's untouchable!!

  • as a mariah fan .. ican admit talent and whitney is a better vocalist .. i dont see y mariah fans cants admit that lol

  • super moment de complicité mère fille
