  • i never saw it before...but here in this video....her daughter looks like her

  • Why don't you guys accept that she did lyp sync? Every singer has to do it sometimes and it can't change the fact that she's one of the greatest vocalists in the world. This is lyp-synced and nothing's wrong with it.

  • She's so beautiful here.

  • Listen and Learn <<<

  • Geez, she's lip synching! I was looking forward to one of her great live performances! ;(

  • Hard to imagine a sweet girl with such a mature and amazing voice!!

  • lip syncing or not it's HER voice! smh sheesh just enjoy her beautiful voice....

  • She was very beautiful !!

  • Looks like a young holly Robinson

  • yea shes lip syncing alot of shows back then did that because they didnt have access to instrumentals lame but true.

  • Comment removed

  • watching these young videos of her makes me understand more of who whitney was. She was a big dreamer, a huge and vulnerable romantic. This gave her her talent but at the same time she was weak against impulse and feeling, so weak she gave up her whole life for it. No barriers can equal great tragedy and also the greatest musical gifts.

  • i luv her music and miss her

  • Obviously Lipsync.

  • @showtheevidence782 How Dare You Say That A Woman With Such A BEAUTIFUL Voice Is LIP SINGING? At Least Show Her Some Respect! You Should Be Ashamed Of Yourself For Disrespecting Her! R.I.P Ms. Whitney <3 We Love & Miss You

  • @ilovemyyams29 Because She is. I didn't disrespect her, I'm just pointing out her obvious lipsync.

  • @ilovemyyams29 It is not disrespect, she does not sing live on that video except at the end of the bridge. Whitney has never sung her songs as per the original. She ALWAYS adds up extra runs and riffs. One can tell she looks uncomfortable there and so innocent as if she was forced to tone down. I believe that was disrespectful!!!

  • @showtheevidence782 C'mon its Whitney! She's not lip singing lol She's that good I Guess . 

  • @brittanywadeondeck She's Lipsyncing. It's ok, lots of stars do it. Considering that Whitney lipsynced very very rarely, i don't consider it wrong. This is obviously lipsynced, listen to her other performances of this. It somewhat reminds you of the Michael Jackson Motown Performance.

  • @showtheevidence782

    You're absolutely right. When it's live, it's never exactly how it sounds on cd, they'll add stuff like yeahs, and change it up a bit. This is exactly how it sounds on cd. Like you said, it's no big deal and very rare for her, but you're right though.

  • She were so beautiful and full of happiness

  • @marinellahm So young too and yes very beautiful. God love her

  • Nippy at her best! Beautiful, stylish, elegant & with the beautiful singing voice that set her apart from every other singer.

  • Her superbowl performance was pre-recorded as are most performances. However, Whitney also sang the song live as her voice played on the recording. That was all her.

  • Beautiful and gorgeous smile

  • R.I.P Whitney!! I woz 8years old when this song come out, i loved it then & still do now xxxx

  • Sweet miracle. Yep Kevin, you right.

  • SHE IS PRETTY WITH ABEAUTIFUL SMILE

  • She has raw talent shes not even trying hard and her voice is so powerful. REST IN PERFECT PEACE!

  • oh my, this is the first time EVER seeing whitney lip sync. but what the HELL!! she is very good talent, or lets say EXTREME talent.

  • at least shes lip syncing to her voice unlike...milli vanilli who lip synced to ppl other than themselves

  • This is Obviously lip sync. There's is no debate about it, i've listened to the original and paused it at each point during the song, and this is lipsync

  • She's lip syncing!

  • Her rendition of the SSB at superbowl 91 was re-released after 9/11 when the country was overcome with patriotism ..it went on the #1 on the chart the first time ever in history a live performance of the SSB has ever reached that high. Otherwise it wouldn't have registered on the charts if it was pre-recorded. It was her powerful vocals that gave substance and meaning to the national anthem

  • @2000coco - hear hear. That performance always gives me goosebumps. AFAIK, it has never been paralleled. Early Aguilera and Carey did fairly good versions, but Whitney's is definitive.

  • ...the musical arrangement by her musical director Ricky Manor was pre-recorded - that's how it's always done with super bowl national anthems...BUT her vocals are absolutely live .. She sang LIVE to the background arrangement ..the SSBanner wouldn't have cracked the top 10 if it wasn't a bona fide live performance - that's what it was so special about it she captured the mood of a nation at war in Iraq

  • I was born in mid -year of 1988 but at the younger age I've fall in love to her voice & her music and that's the Whitney Houston I longed to see. THE VOICE in her FRESH AURA! You're Immortal in our hearts.............

  • What utter garbage!!

    Where is the Clive Davis interview u speak of?

  • Truly the greatest of her time. Just listen to that voice. Magic. May she rest i peace.

  • que en paz descanse ... grande ella ...!

  • shes suppose to b 22 here??? she loos so tiny

  • This must have been one of her first concerts on the road alone. It looks like the managers were too afraid to let her have control over the stage and sing the vocals naturally. It sounds just like the soundtrack I played 100,000 times in high school! She is a true vocalist!

  • I used to love getting dressed to this song

  • my favourite song!!! <3

  • she was so cutee<3

  • RIP 

  • Whaaaa...? Whitney Houston and lip synching DO NOT go together ...in all her live performances she SANG her heart out. Whitney may be other things but lip synching was not one of them.. Her live vocals on stage was what separated her from the rest.

    After singing the national anthem superbowl in 1991 people accused her of the same crap , that it was pre-recorded because it was just too brilliant!!...again she just sang ..you can't fake that stuff...

  • @2000coco The Superbowl performance was pre-recorded. That's how they did things back then. And this is also lipped. Nobody, nobody no how great is going to be able to sing their record exactly as it was recorded. Listen to every version of How Will I Know and you'll hear they're all the same as this one.

  • @Shakeshack78 THE SUPERBOWL WAS NOT PRE-RECORED and suggesting that it was shows your pure ignorance. She was a rare brilliant singer who's voice was blessed by God, she sang exactly like her records in her prime all the time. She didn't lip sync she was WHITNEY HOUSTON the greatest of all time and the whole world clearly sees that, except you. So show respect and give credit where credit is due.

  • @LPNET1 According to Clive Davis, in a recent interview after Whitney passed, Whitney's Superbowl version of the Star Spangled Banner was pre-recorded. Before he said it, I would not have beleived it. He also said it was cocaine that burned her vocal cords and he tried to persuade her to have surgery, which would have fixed the problem, but she refused. He said he tried to get her to stop smoking. She is lip-syncing here. Yes, she was a great singer and she gave so many great live performances

  • @LPNET1 also whitney sang the SSB live in concert and it was exactly the same as she sang it at the Superbowl! Exactly the same! she just had an amazing Voice!

  • @LPNET1 The superbowl version of The Stars Spangled Banner was in fact pre recorded. It had to be because the accoustics of the stadium and tech back then wouldn't have allowed her to sing live, especially with an orchestra and three jets flying above towards the end. This is widely know and well accepted amongst a community of fans online like myself. Accounts of her singing the song note by note however was reported by one of the officers along side her.

  • @sherwin892 we also know that Whitney is very well capable of having had sung it live. Plus You can find an actual live version of the same song sung the same great way here on youtube. Search for The Stars Spangled Banner Welcome Home Heroes

  • @LPNET1 I love Whitney too, but it was confirmed years ago that she did in fact record that vocal track ahead of time. They even pointed that out during the 20/20 special they did on her after she died and the fact that so few people even realized it. Does that take away from its power? No way. But it is what it is ...

  • @LPNET1 The superbowl performance WAS pre-recorded. True fans can admit it without disrespecting her (or showing "ignorance") because she definitely had the talent to perform it live if she wanted to. Let's remember that it was the first superbowl to be internationally telecast, so maybe her handlers convinced her to pre-record it in case she forgot the words with the whole world watching. At her "welcome home heroes" concert live on HBO, she sang the national anthem live and sounded AMAZING.

  • @raymond2832 Exactly. It was amazing but it was pre-recorded. People's fantasy just can't handle the truth.

  • @LPNET1 YES> YES> YES> It WAS pre-recorded! It was BEAUTIFUL and pre-recorded.

  • @superpedros1000 in an interview she admitted that by the mid 90s she was using regularly with bobby doodooh..she could still belt out great numbers way into the late 90s and early 00s but the effects were there..you could start hearing the change...

    ..here her voice was pure and intact...and so young and beautiful...Dear Whitney..so soon...

  • i am so glad i am born around this time in history to hear such a voice and witness such a talent; so sad to know that there will not be another one.

  • So Beautiful

  • Comment removed

  • It looks like there are Masonic Pyramids in all her performances.Clive Davis is Pure Satan

  • FOXY LADY!

  • she's already stoned here... sad but true :( however she was THE VOICE !!!

  • @superpedros1000 you so damn stupid... she wasnt on drugs around this time... dummy!!!

  • @kianorton say what u want.. you can also call me stupid (what is rude) but from moment to moment u can see this sad emptiness in her eyes, her eyesight is absent... she is on the scene but her mind is somewhere else... btw she was using full package then. i will never question her greatness as a singer... but what killed her was present in her life from the early beginning, if u claim something else u know s***t about her. RIP

  • @superpedros1000 I think you may have something there with your comments. There is an "emptyness in the eyes" and this performance was definitely lip synched!

  • Young and beautiful and gifted. I am so sad. RIP sister. You will be missed.

  • I AM SOOOOO disgusted by the coldness, evil, gossip, & disrespect concerning Whitney. ALL that she contributed to music unselfishly, built schools, helped hundreds of kids go to college, caring for the forgotten ( the homeless,underprivileged, senior citizens, veterans, etc.), & all we can talk about is her PAST & Bobby Brown?? WTH? I find it very strange how we are buying the media's poison of speculation, innuendo, & crudeness like denim jeans. God is watching & payback is a stank witch.

  • I agree, she is lipsyncing, but in the 80's you could get away with it till Milli Vanilli came along. She didn't have to lipsync, she was a true creature of habit.

  • @Plummy30 nawwwwww, i don' t think so.

  • It's pretty obvious she is lipsyncing. She was a great artist but this is lipped

  • @showtheevidence90020 Whitney didn't ever ever ever ever ever need to lip sync any of her songs!!

  • I cant believe she is this good LIVE. No one else is quite like her.

  • @getfuckedanddie1 She's Lipsyncing in this performance. No one, can sound exactly like the orginal attrack, and it's quite evident.

  • @showtheevidence90020 God you're stupid. This does not sound exactly like the original track/album. @3:21 is different, and this version is shorter. Quit pretending like you're a forensic specialist in music.

  • @veryslyfox At 3:25 to 3:28 her mouth stops moving but her voice is still heard.

    Stop getting mad because i said she's lip syncing. She was very talented, and she only lipsynced on a few rare occasions. This was one of them/

    A few things are changed but this is lipsynced.

  • @showtheevidence90020 Give it up dude, you're clearly clueless. First you claimed this was an exact lip synch of the album track, which has got to be the dumbest claim ever. If a singer where to lip-synch something it WOULDN'T BE FROM THE RECORDED ALBUM. Good grief that's a moronic claim. Then I pointed out this version has different ornamentation from the album track and you had to take your foot out of your mouth, and now you're grasping as straws saying her lips stopped moving. Youre a tool

  • @veryslyfox One of the most famous cases of this type of lipsync. Was Michael Jackson's Motown 25 performance. Billie Jean was obviously lipsynced, and sounded LIKE THE RECORDED ALBUM.

    Thirdly, there might be a few changes, but overall, this performance SOUNDS THE SAME CAUSE IT"S LIPSYNC.

    I pointed out her mouth stopped moving at the end which is quite obvious. So stop with your stupid comments back to me.

    You ignorant fool, it's more than obvious.

  • @showtheevidence90020 Whatever loser, maybe she's just that talented, no she IS just that talented!! RIP Whitney

  • @LadyBug3308 Whintey was very talented, but she's lip syncing this. Listen to all the other live performances of this song, and back to this video.

    Lipsync doesn't mean anything bad, the show could have forced her to lipsync,

    if you look at

    3:25 on to 3:29 her mouth isn't moving

  • I swear the happy Barbie faces & cheeky smiles could have been modeled after this Amazing lady;) B-boys & Dancers-at least I will drop to the ground with a thumping heart-then when after awaking-tear up the floor to this dynomight soul singing & groovn;)

  • If she would have gave all her heart mind body and sould to God she would never have had these issues. She started in church. God had plans for her voice to bring Him glory. But she was given over to the world and the demons of Hollywood and that is where she made her mistake. Bobby Brown was not the full fault of this. He was a plant from satan. She surrendered to Hollywood and the fame. So she sold out on her own. These things happen when you compromise God for the World. I pray you was saved!

  • @jakewer How do you know she didn't? And whose to say she didn't bring Him glory? Were you there is her last minutes? I didn't get the memo that God needed your opinion or judgement! How do you know she wasn't saved before she took her last breathe? I become very concerned with people like you who talk a good talk about a Godly life, but yet you're fighting your own contradictions & demons privately. Our job is to pray withOUT ceasing, especially for her family to move forward.

  • As far as I'm aware. Whitney was abusing drugs before Bobby came along. The entire thing is very sad. She was extremely talented and it's such a shame that these greats in the industry tend to depend on illegal substances. She is and will always be in my books undeniably the best female vocalist in the world. Of course being around Bobby did not help very much concerning the abuse but I''m sure he did make her happy at some point in her life. They were married for 15 years. RIP Whitney.

  • @MegaTrinichic WOW- Brown said the total shocking opposite on his interview with Montel in 2010 & VH1 interviews in 2011. Now, i will say the mature woman in me respects the fact that he was honest, & raw about his shocking details on how he mistreated her, even admitting watching his friends drug her, & that she never used drugs until she was in his circle of life. but enough of this kinda of talk 4 me. I rather celebrate her greatness & victory over her struggles.

  • Bubby has some blame to take. Compare Whitney before and after Bubby's marriage. We are talking of marriage for God's sake. Bubby owed her everything to make her better i.e if she was not good enough. But the end result here is negative. Bubby cannot marry any other woman.

  • i don't think we can blame bobby for this.. So tragically sad but bobby bashing won't bring whitney back. they were clearly not very good influences on each other, but booby didn't do this.

  • WOW! I actually had to turn the volume down!

  • WOW! I actually had to turn the volume down!

  • What a truly remarkable talented singer!!....I had the pleasure of attending one of her concerts in 1991...at that time I was not a big pop fan to say the least.  But after that performance I was blown away and a fan for life. You will be sorely missed WH...God Bless

  • I love you Whitney. I wish people would stop with the negative comments. You were a great mother, daughter and women! You had a great voice and I miss you Nippy <3

  • @LoveKeyla1994 Trolls will spam no matter what .

  • @MsDiva4Lyfe, you're a typical human Smfh, so sad that you would concentrate on her edges and she's singing her ass off. If you had common sense you'd know the lighting makes her hair look like that. Get a fucking like idiot.

  • Her eyes!!!

  • She is one artist who didn't have to lip sync, so why'd they make her do that? Whitney is the best.

  • @mama2bebes u can tell she is very uncomfortable by the way she looks at the mic. She usually tears the place up and rip songs apart whenever she sings live...

  • Sliczna:)

  • 本当にまだまだ歌って欲しかった。

  • <3 This!!!!!!!!

    Going to miss u!!!!!!!!!

  • That little girl sung that song !!! You go Whitney.

  • She was an amazing talent. Her enthusiasium was infectious and addicting. Her music made you happy and want to dance. This video was the beginning of a long career and a forever romance between Whitney and her fans. She will always be my number one favorite singer. Rest in peace Whitney. Your struggle and fight is now over.

  • The only thing Bobbi Kris got from mummy are her eyes... That performance makes her look so innocent!

  • Nowadays looks, we have Beyonce who is really stunning however vocally Whitney will always be my number one!!!

  • RIP Whitney..but what happened to her edges???

  • She was so cute and full of life. So sad.

  • @whatsbelowyou What's so sad is the fact she should have never used drugs. She would still be here. Damm the drug culture and the fools who promote it.

  • This is the time when she had the best Voice ever .

  • thank you WHITNEY FOR ALL THE CHICK MUSIC!!

  • this is one of my mums favourites

  • The fire in her voice just remind of Rihanna at this moment... RIP

  • @oumzin Oh really-Rhianna shouldnt be mentioned in the SAME sentence with Whitney Houston when it comes to SINGING!

  • She supposed to live forever... :'(

  • LOVE YOU BIG SISTER WHITNEY! WE MISS YOU!

  • Whitney, u will always be in our homes and music libraries. Your beautiful voice will never ever die!!!

  • R.I.P :(

  • Wow. This woman just hardly ever aged. She always looked so stunning. She'll always be stunning. The music industry's standard vocalist. Her music's timeless. She's timeless.

  • This is the girl I fell in love with--look at her. So cute. :(

  • bobby brown is a piece of shit

  • @promixdirt bobby didn't do anything smh

  • @promixdirt B.B. is the worst drug that has taken Whitney.

  • @promixdirt but she surely loved him.

  • @promixdirt errrmm...no she was on drugs before she met bobby.get ur facts straight

  • @promixdirt Wow, everyone wants Bobby Brown's head on a platter huh? The reality is that she would have ended up the same way regardless. She was attracted to him because of his personality and would have ended up with someone like that whether she met Brown or not. She knew what she was getting into.

  • Comment removed

  • R.I.P Whitney, you will be missed by many

  • Holy schnikees, that's gonna leave a mark...on everyone's heart. Remembering when seeing her for the first time, having never seen a woman so beautiful as she...

  • Peace and rest, finally.

  • Rip. Thank you!!

  • MISS YOU FOREVER

  • at least it's not MILLI VANILLI lol!!!

  • Some Shows Do Require You To Lipsynch!

  • lipped or not, it's whitney. need not to say much :D

  • wow she looks so much younger with her real hair.Damn she looks 16 here. In the 80s she use to look so much older than her age.Here she is stuning

  • lip!

    

  • You know it's playback because when she sings live, she never sings a song like the recorded version.

  • this is lip sync?

  • I love Whitney... but for some reason... I don't think is live...

  • She looks so cute!!!

  • She is live in this video ? Because the sound of the original cd version is different, at least I think

  • Whitney has destroyed her vocal chords with so much smoking. It will take a miracle for her to sing again.

  • Whitney you could still sing !!!!!

  • OMG wow

  • WOW. It's sad that her voice just deteriorated and now she can't even hit high notes or just sing! Anyone see her recent performances of this song as of last year ? Just search a few of them; they are awful! Poor Whitney. Say no to drugs, people!

  • FANTASTIC!!!

  • Aah Twitter is Over Limit again

  • I love the 80s! BUT I love the 70s too.. OH Well I just like Retro

  • she's not lip syncing

  • OLD SCHOOL!!!! she's so cute lol

  • omg wtf she looks young, sounds young omg!! WWWWWWWwwwoooooooooooWWWWWWW lol

  • I would never lip sync.

  • She looks like a supermodel.

  • @GoldenEagle469 o I think that too!

  • nice, but from Sandra, CCCatch or Kim Wilde ago fashion was .... but pretty!

  • Pretty sure she's lip syncing, but at 3:20 she actually sings because that's not on the actual track.
