Whitney god her voice is awesome. Natalie may have an easier access to really high belting, but even with that, her voice is way less impressive than Whitney's one!!! WHITNEY I love you
@PIECE2YOURMOTHA yes fashion was horrible back then. but the talent was the best michale jackson whitney and the rest were doing there thing back then.
3:05 - 3:30 Natalie takes her turn at free styling. I love it when she puts her hand on her hip, starts bob'n her head and shoulders, then turns and finger points at the crowd. Whitney is doing her thing & not holding back at all, but Natalie is not intimidated the least bit, which be easy to become when your on stage with one of the greatest voices of all time. Why isn't she? Because Natalie can flat out blow! She has Grammys too. But mainly because they genuinely like each other & it shows.
Of course,Witney was one of the greatest singer EVER but I am sorry,There is only one who can sing this song Perfectly : ARETHA FRANKLIN,The queen Of Soul!
They are rockin' this song. Natalie's tone is occasionally reminiscent of Aretha's but she's still always Natalie. Whitney is Whitney at her best. These two dynamic singers are clearly having a blast together. Pure joy. BTW, Dionne Warwick had the original top-40 hit recording of this Bacharach-David song. And Aretha followed up a few years later with her own unique version which became an r&b classic and another hit for this tune.
@xenafan234 A lot of people remember Aretha's version. I am not going to get into the Dionne or Aretha debate of who did it best. Both had huge hits with the song and million sellers as well. I love them both...
@BrownSouth I don't think so, no offence but Nathali's tone = not beautiful to hear, all she can do is belt. Whitney got her here and on the other duet, plus Whitney is a total package vocally, there's nothing wrong with her voice, everything is on fire, range, tone quality, runs, power, vibrato. Plus Whitney has the highest belt of the song.
@BrownSouth your smoking something Whitney sang her ass off and ran all over Natalie now I agree if your talking about the performance after this one Bridge Over Trouble Water Natalie outdid Whitney on that one but Whitney got her on this one.
The G5 Natalie belted before the End did it for me she can channel Aretha the best out of the 2.. Whitney wasn't gun let her trample her tho of course.. I luv it..
I know that Aretha recorded this song, but it's weird that they don't introduce it as Dionne Warwick's song, because it was written for her, recorded first by her, and Dionne is Whitney's cousin. Interesting fact... Later on, when Whitney was in one of her fragile recoveries, she did a short European tour with Natalie and Dionne.
natalie was so funny when she said "clap along, snap your fingers, slap your thighs, slap somebody else's thigh" hehehe, i just thought that was the best part;)
Whit and Nat, went off!! In this video. I like!!!
