I know what you mean.. but isn't it skillful that most of this performance does not follow the original melodic line and she simply, with her great musicianship, rearranges the line accordingly whilst, of course, payign attention to the harmony? Fantastic.
Love this version of the song. Sounds unbelievable, but that way I sing it all the time because I can't reach all those high notes and this is the first time I hear Whitney singing this song that way.
best ever. soulful and energetic. and for a great cause. i love her and she is THE VOICE.

@dagll absolutely. she knew exactly where the notes were and how to hit them. still does..although she can't hit nearly as many of them anymore.

Mariah Carey SUCKS..I wish her fans had a clue that Whitney is the greatest singer that ever lived.

anyone else agree that the riff on at 3:37-3:39 is unlike any other she's ever done?

@paralunatic I think the credit on vocal arrangements should go to her mother tbh. If you listen to some of Cissy's songs the influence is apparent.
