How does a Black singer suppose to sound, when there are Blacks across the globe in different countries. When someone who does not know any about race or music, and the same time race they have a problem. Listen to Billy Ocean a man who Afro/British citizen with accent, Know one know the oringin of that man until they what he looked like. There are a lot of Americans need to look outside of the United States and see what type of people of a darker color as well blacks be fore they pre-judge.
Stop mentioning other singers. Whitney is unique. Her instant appeal sound is remarkable.
When you hear most black singers today, they don't sound natural. They sound like "oh now I'm gonna try and sound more black here in this part" - Whitney just enjoyed performing. That's all it took. Because she had natural ability.
@rlee1976 I actually don't think the Black singers today try to "sound more black" whatever that means. I think the singers today are not trained, they don't know when they're oversinging something. Back then the studios actually developed their talent. Not today they put so much into an artist's image and less into developing their craft.

The clarity of her voice. My god there will never be another voice like that EVER! Then how she does the higher notes without screaming. My God None of the singers from then on could even see her "Vocally". We have good singers now but none compare to whitney in her prime.None!!Not Mariah,Christina,Beyonce,X-tina the list goes on.Her background singers sucked and she still sounded out of this world good, That is how you know you're the shit lol
Whitney's voice just has that something extra, that something that you dont find in other female singers. I think when God created song, her voice was designed to be the singer. Beautiful and forever amazed...
just want to remind everyone what a truly BIG FIRST this was....a major day in pop history....this was whitney's FIRST EVER national performance April 1985....and it was on Johnny Carson's show which proved what a huge star she was right off the bat. Carson meant clout for the artist and exposure like none other. KILLER VOCALS....CLASSIC WHITNEY...
THANK YOU & THANK YOU...Oh How I miss The Orginal Whitney...Her Voice, Her Range & Just Technique....This Is So Amazing & Beautuful....Such A Blessing Of Her Voice
Jhud tone is irritating sometimes, especially on high belts, Whitney has a way better tone quality. Whitney's voice was so perfect in every part :) The one who now is the closest to Whitney's perfection is Leona Lewis, her tone is beautiful in middle, belts, and head voice.
@theoneandonly2503 jennifer hudson hollars like an overstuffed boar! Shouting and foaming all over the place...no delicate consideration for the sensuality tinged song such as this. Who wants to hear an african war cry version of you give good love?
@MrDTJones1 I hate the way J-HUD sings, how is that evil? She's EVIL for screaming and hollaring all over the damn place when trying to sing classic Nippy songs.
A melhor voz de sua geração. Witney realmente abrilhantou a musica com sua capacidade de interpretar e cantar, com uma potencia inconfundivel. Merece o apelido que tem : A VOZ....
A spectacular performance for Whitney but she was good because i would've had to interrupt the music so i could go and bitch-slap those horrible background singers. It's like they were picked out of the audience just a few minutes before her performance or something!
It's one thing to be a boombastic singer and sing hard and belt, and do a thousand runs a minute, and be declared a good singer. But to have those qualities and also have control, finesse, be able to put a little out and take some back at the right times, AND to be svelte, beautiful, charming, lady-like, and 21, that's what separates Whitney from the rest. The TOTAL package. ANYONE who's compared to her today has only studied her their whole life!!!
Don't think I've ever seen such a good live performance on TV ever...this was a good rare vid....thanks for sharing it. I miss me some good Whitney...and Johnny, too!
Whitney was so humble back then and really could sing. I think as she became a huge star she couldn't take all the pressure and broke. I think Bobby had a lot to do with it. She's has really sound bad this last year more than ever. I think a good rest and a vocal coach could get her back on her feet. I really do hope so. I want bigger and better things for Whitney in the future.
@stevescissors unfortunately once you crack ur cords tehres no way to get that clean sound again,she still can sing tho.Its very easy to strech ur cords specially with ehr type of song,plus smoking and alcohol dont help. with all that,she will always be the best female voice in R&B,nobody can take that form her. Time pass tahts a fact but....we will always love her ;-D
@markknize i hate to say it - bobby was a mistake. bad boy stole her voice, her money and her class. I wish she would have truly believed some of her own songs (I believe that children...one moment in time...miracles...especially miracles)
Wow. Thats what I liked about WH. She didnt stick to the studio rendition of her songs when she gave live performances. She was not afraid to mix up the tempo and it still sounded great.
OMG, what a performance, her voice was so untouchable when she first came out.
PS : Who the fuck are those 21 people who dislike that?
What was great with Whitney is that her performances were balanced, she could sound white, sound black, she was everything, and was so much more than the simple church girl only able to sing with runs (even if I do love Gospel music so much)
No young girl has been this great, and no young girl will EVER thrill us like this again. She had the combination of beauty, elegance, height, size, brains, AND enormous talent, with a GREAT voice.
@CriRP omg u are SOOOOO right ,, perfect control with loud notes and perfectely controlled quiter notes ,, jennifer hodosn is all about holler holler holler,, this is very ,, well the word im looking for is Pretty
I remember thinking back then that she could be the next Streisand. Look at what 25 years of drugs have done. So sad and such a lesson in what not to do.
@ccjoey hey if the Vatican are the most powerful organisation in the world. How about they practice what they preach and invest their entire fortune into world peace. Instead of gold laced robes, scents instead of their followers. lol makes sense to me dont you think?
OK. I'm fed up with this comparison between Mariah and Whitney. Who cares they both have talent that I don't see FoxyBrown of anyone showcasing and they both have money. Who care who sold more than who, just because somebody sells alot of records doesn't mean they are great artist. Rihanna, Keri Hilson, Ciara..Hell Milli Vanilli sold alot of copies. This just mean that mainstream and the masses don't know good music. If it wasn't for Whitney there would be no Mariah. Now.
Back in those days a "live" performance actually meant....a live performance. No pre-recorded vocals. No backing track. And the singers were so good you knew they could pull it off. There is so much trash in the music industry today. No one as good as Whitney has come along yet.
Whitney here is perfection! Her belts are strong and that head voice is just otherworldly! 2:20-245 is my favorite part and that run from 2:38-2:43 puts every new artist out there today to shame!
The problem is these younger people can't appreciate good music and great singing. They have zero respect for anyone who paved the way for them. Zero respect. Until I'm proven wrong it is what it is. Some of these posts prove two important things: 1. They don't have a ear for good music (It's not my fault your parents were still eating kids meals right along with you.
2. They are too stupid to realize that album sales don't and will never measure how good of a singer you are.
@argel696 I know u like Whit but do not count Mariah out. Mariah is a real artist...she writes all of her own material, sings great, and she even produces. Mariah Carey is just as much a legend as Whit. Remember she sold more than Whit so dont do Mariah like that.
@argel696 I wish Whit would lip sing more often because that voice sounds like someone is choking a damn cat! Ummmmm u need to listen to her voice now lol. Im done playing with u delusional Whit fans. Mariah sold more than 200 million + albums worldwide. Whit is only at 170 millions and half of half of that is because of "The Body Guard Soundtrack". I MEAN GET OVER IT SHES FINISHED! NEXT------------------>

OK. I'm fed up with this comparison between Mariah and Whitney. Who cares they both have talent that I don't see FoxyBrown of anyone showcasing and they both have money. Who care who sold more than who, just because somebody sells alot of records doesn't mean they are great artist. Rihanna, Keri Hilson, Ciara..Hell Milli Vanilli sold alot of copies. This just mean that mainstream and the masses don't know good music. If it wasn't for Whitney there would be no Mariah. Now.

Back in those days a "live" performance actually meant....a live performance. No pre-recorded vocals. No backing track. And the singers were so good you knew they could pull it off. There is so much trash in the music industry today. No one as good as Whitney has come along yet.

Whitney here is perfection! Her belts are strong and that head voice is just otherworldly! 2:20-245 is my favorite part and that run from 2:38-2:43 puts every new artist out there today to shame!

The problem is these younger people can't appreciate good music and great singing. They have zero respect for anyone who paved the way for them. Zero respect. Until I'm proven wrong it is what it is. Some of these posts prove two important things: 1. They don't have a ear for good music (It's not my fault your parents were still eating kids meals right along with you.
2. They are too stupid to realize that album sales don't and will never measure how good of a singer you are.

This industry destroyed this woman. I pray she gets restoration and finds inner peace.

She has a wonderful instrument, but her phrasing doesn't even compare to Dionne's mastery.

@fatassmariah Im agreeing with you!! Whitney is the best...a real voice..not like mariah..she's always using head-voice .,...

@argel696 I know u like Whit but do not count Mariah out. Mariah is a real artist...she writes all of her own material, sings great, and she even produces. Mariah Carey is just as much a legend as Whit. Remember she sold more than Whit so dont do Mariah like that.

@FoxyBrownFan1 ARE YOU SURE???!! WAKE UP!!!
my god! WHITNEY IS ICONIC !! a legendary......one...Unlike with MAriah...do lip sync...
argel696 1 year ago
@argel696 I wish Whit would lip sing more often because that voice sounds like someone is choking a damn cat! Ummmmm u need to listen to her voice now lol. Im done playing with u delusional Whit fans. Mariah sold more than 200 million + albums worldwide. Whit is only at 170 millions and half of half of that is because of "The Body Guard Soundtrack". I MEAN GET OVER IT SHES FINISHED! NEXT------------------>
