@kmaur21 wrong, sam cooke And marvin gaye could mess with 80s whitney, sam cooke sang this song a thousand times better than whitney , just saying this song isn't really a song made for her , when in her prime she was amazing and 1 of my favorite female singers of all time,. But I will never consider her as great as sam cooke or marvin gaye.. Never
@GaddafiIsAGreatMan PLEASE don't mistake Whitney effortlessness with lack of soul she actually was opera trained, and sung in this era 5 octaves of range very effortlessly night after night. She is the Voice and there is none that can mess with 80's Whitney NONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ummjt "Whitney has talents that span many more genres than aretha - probably because she was operatically trained, influenced by gospel and soul by her mother."
Aretha has recorded soul/r&b, blues, jazz, gospel, rock, pop. Recorded one of the most influential gospel albums of all times and was mentored by gospel legends Mahalia Jackson, Clara Ward & James Cleveland. Whitney's career not even close to being as diverse. I do think Whitney had a beautiful voice.
@MIMI88998899 You cannot call Whitney Houston an okay singer...it is false...no one agrees with you...I don't care if you think Aretha is better...it makes not sense...
Only Whitney can pull off those Growls !!

There was a time when Whitney use to call Bobby the "King" of R&B. You and Whitney must be sipping the same kool aid.

This indeed is the same exact version Aretha Franklin sang when she performed her rendition... wow, too beautiful. May the legendary Sam Cooke RIP.
