Whitney's voice is a human treasure.
Dead or alive, she is for sure the best female voice in music history.
Whitney Houston was a born star. she was a gift from mother Nature The golden standard of a females voice. everyone wishes they could sound like her, men and women. The world's greatest singer.
Whitney is a master of all the techniques, 1) resonance, 2) Vibrato, 3) Colorature 4)inflections 5) scaling up and down 6) natural 7)falsetto or soft soprano for a woman 8) throat, diaphram and head singing 9) Crescendo and decrescendo and breath control 10) staccato and perfect diction
Than to top THAT, she was also physically the MOST beautiful singer to ever exist as well
Agree and much of what you wrote can be said of LARA FABIAN.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@pacscanadadatabaseservices3711 no😂
@@pacscanadadatabaseservices3711I bet you Lara Fabian would agree to the original comment. Whitney is her teacher. I bet she’s still learning from Whitney till today..
@@tisanbako- LARA comes from the Barbara Streisand line of singing, not Whitney.
Whitney always fluttered her fingers when she was feeling the moment vocally. That’s her trademark hand gesture!
That and a sweat rag, never used it though. That how you knew she was going to tear the roof down
Yup. She was no joke
Who else you know can do stuff like that with they Voice. Nobody. Aretha Franklin was close but not that Powerful. 🤔. Geesh
That's why she's my favorite singer. I love you Whitney Houston
And that kick that she goes..
As others write - it's great to hear a musician react to Whitney. Her voice was an instrument in its own right!
Incredible performance. Thanks for the feedback, glad you're enjoying it! :)
love your reaction to the GOAT Whitney,,,,,,,Cheers from Minneapolis USA
Whitney Houston took this song from George Benson and made people forget he did it first and he is one of the most versatile musical talents ever,So you know Whitney Houston was next level
I actually checked out the original George Benson version straight after this. It was amazing! 😊👍
She did this with quite a few songs. She’d sing a song somebody else sang, and it became Whitney’s. Nobody else could compare.
Did we ask
George’s version is still my favourite. ❤
Wow I never knew that fact
She saaaaang the mess out of that song
Succinctly put, sir! 👍😊
those last two big notes was insane , I’d say her best performance is one moment in time at the grammys
A couple of others have also suggested this performance, I will have to check it out. Thanks!
Yup.
I don’t even think that one was her best, which is crazy
she does that gesture when she is feeling the music and sometimes when she feels the audience’s anticipation. She never gets nervous😊
I like what you said about her use of restraint. Whitney could belt the most extraordinary, sustained notes and make them sound intimate and organic - never showy or gratuitous. And that was only ONE of her many innate gifts. There will never be another like this woman. Ever.
Just brings me to tears 😢, just love her miss her more.
Whitney Elizabeth Houston was, is and forever will be The Greatest Voice of All in human existence! Did you know (though she didn't play on stage) that Whitney was a pretty good piano player too?!
Didn't know that, Nina. Thanks !
@@JWSoundworks2 You're welcome! Whitney comes from a very talented musical family (especially her mothers side). Whitney, her mam Cissy, cousin Dionne Warwick and opera singer Leontyne Price are the famous one's.
It would be great if you take the time to listen to Whitney's 'out of this world' phenomenal live performances listed below and choose some to react to. I assure you that Whitney will take you on an emotional rollercoaster of song and that you won't regret it!😄
*The ✨Most Epic & Angelic✨ Live Performances forever belong to ✨Miss Whitney Elizabeth Houston!* ✨
Whitney's great personality and her background of Gospel, Soul, R&B, Jazz, Opera etc set her apart from all the others.
Whitney makes you feel her True Heart & Soul through her Voice!
LISTEN TO THE VOICE LEGACY! BEFORE AUTOTUNE THERE WAS WHITNEY HOUSTON!
*Just a few of they countless 'out of this world live performances that Whitney left us to last forever!*

Whitney Houston
Is this a critique of my accent? Lol. One of my grandparents had the same surname, it's how my parents pronounced it in this part of Northern Ireland.
She was so good the hand flutters and movement of hands was her controlling how the sound coincided with her voice which also made her a musician. That’s how good she was. She did not need backup singers or dancers. Her voice was so powerful and her presentation was all you needed.
She doesn't over sing a song she gives it what it needs, and her placement to add melisma in an empty space is amazing whether it's a duet or solo she has the best placement of any singer
The way she can bend a note in natural note and slide into her head voice is amazing. Watch her sing Happy Birthday to her father in a red dress the way she bends that not is freaking amazing.
I love your reaction! Everytime a watch this video, I always in tears before but now its all overwhelming. This was on her prime were she was unmatched. She is the greatest singer/vocalist of all time! She has it all, power, range, pure tone, Angelic headvoice, Clear pronounciation and intonation, Runs and riffs which she introduces it, the confidence and the command on stage, stage presence is remarkable. The way she pit emotions into thr songs and deliver it with ease and striking to your heart is amazing. Being a singer is not all about vocals but most important is the connection of the singer to the song into the audience. Emotions comes first and that's how Whitney Houston was masterfully done in the past. She is called "The Voice" for nothing.
This one makes me cry. Whenever she says they cant take away her dignity... all I can think of is the scumbag known as Bobby Brown who did take away her dignity... and everything else.
Complete package superstar! The GOAT!😍
10.0 10.0 10.0 10.0 10.0 TENS ACROSS THE BOARD!!!
Please do more Whitney
She was my first concert in 1986 in Sydney Australia. Inspired me to keep seeing Live music .
You’re so lucky !! How was it ??
More Whitney
I also really love watching reactions from someone who plays instruments, like you, and not just vocal coaches because you give a lot of information about the arrangement and tempo of the song that I really appreciate.
I'm glad you find it of interest. And I really appreciate you letting me know. Thank you! 😊
Whitney has been , still is, and for sure will be, the most powerful, tecnhical ansd emotional queen of the entire world. PLEASE never let her fade out in our memories !
The GOAT 🖤
Loved your analysis and your explanation of technique and authenticity. I think we all miss Whitney.
Hard to imagine one person could be so talented!
This was a masterclass
More Whitney pleaseee!! Especially her live performances from the 80's

Please react to Whitney's live performance of "Saving All My Love For You" at Japan on 1991. Thank you so much and God Bless❤️
Agreed!!!!
Please react to That's What Friends Are For with Luther Vandross, Dionne Warwick, Stevie Wonder and Whitney Houston, one of the best vocal performances ever
Haven't heard this one - I'll add it to the list. Be sure to subscribe to be notified when I get it uploaded! :)
More Whitney Houston reaction please!💕
React to her AMA'94 medley. She is singing" i love you porgy, and i am telling you, and i have nothing" that was super incredible and amazing. I am really sure you will be stun and mesmerize.. That was on her prime and she was unmatched.
Thanks for the request, don't forget to subscribe! 😊👍
@@JWSoundworks2 still awaiting for the reaction video!☺
wow - your comments particularly at 12:22-12:25 SPOT on...its part of what impacts me most about this video and whitneys delivery...its so pure and authentic
Thank you 😊
See the version in Wembley - 1988 !!!!!!
Fair play to you, you are a braver man than I am listening to this in front of a camera. Well done.
I was close a couple of times, I must admit. I think if the camera hadn't been rolling I'd have been a wreck.
@@JWSoundworks2 You are in the presence of greatness when watching Whitney sing live. An absolute masterclass performance! Loved your comprehensive reaction too.
You were simply & always the greatest dear Whitney...Rip
Her hand flickering is just how she moves when performing it's like going with the beat of the song
I love listening to your commentary. I'm learning a lot from you.
Thanks for this request. This is really one of the most amazing live performances I've ever heard. And thanks for the kind words :)
Unmatched!🥰
Chills when listening to music is called frisson , i get it frequently
Aye man, it's a class feeling! I put that word in with text on the video, just at that moment I couldn't recollect it, you might have missed it. I should have remembered it, what with being a fan of Jean Rollin and his Frisson des Vampires film! 👹🤒
@@JWSoundworks2 I did completely miss it 😂, I wasn't looking at the screen for most of the video 🙄 this is what happens when I try and say smart things 😂
@@The_Tribal_Beef I can wear a mask next time if my image offends you?
@@JWSoundworks2 I mean , your no Beth roars .... But no I was listening to the video while cooking 😂
@@The_Tribal_Beef 😂😂👊
sometimes she does it to relax and sometimes she does it as a vibrato check when her hands trembles on a certain part of a song as a song goes on when it has break downs she uses her arms and hands to express herself and direct the band as she sings
That little hand tick is something Whitney did offten. My take is that she is so full of music her hand is a tell that she is ready to go. Brilliant
The sensation is called FRISSON, it gives you goose bumps.
Yep, I wrote it on the screen just afterwards. You must have missed it.
If you’re a pianist I’d think you’d like her Song for You from welcome home heroes concert
Thanks for the suggestion, Dan. I'll look into it! 👍
Thank you for this reaction !
You're welcome. This one was a total pleasure. Stunning performance! :)
@@JWSoundworks2 There is one performance I would recommend you react to of Whitney. It is “Jesus loves me live 1994 Brazil” She was singing her heart out in this concert and her and her band really get into it in this performance.
@@manuelt966 I must check it out!
ah yes i kinda geeked out a little when Patrick mentioned Whitney and this song in the film lol
Fantastic reaction - I didn’t mind all the pauses for you to give feedbacks and pretty good techniques to bring up by the performer (Whitney) and how you as the viewer perceive those gestures, notes and overall collaboration all around makes the moment genuine and sincere. A goosebump reaction is always a sure fire way that the intention to bring the listener in is successful. Yay!! Crazy how she’s references in American Psycho - I’m curious to read about that. 9.5 is a great score!
Thanks for a wonderful and informative review and reaction. I always enjoy musicians and/or voice coaches reacting to her live performances. Perhaps someday you will have time to react to "A Quiet Place." It's a gospel masterpiece and a terrific example of her incredible control and explosive power.
Can you react one moment in time live Grammy pls pls whitney houston pls
pls pls pls more more wetney huston pls live love100000000000000000wetney huston
Please pick my pieces up off the floor and put me back together. So beautiful!!!
Your Doing A Phenomenal Job💯
Good reaction, JW Soundworks. U may also check out her rendition of Star Spangled Banner, OMIT, DWAHIA, AAO, AMA '94 medley & WMA '94 IWALY.
💯
Thanks for sharing
❤️
Check out her live concerts like from South Africa, I have nothing, Or IWALY or her radio city music hall start of the bodyguard tour of both songs she was at her best that night!
The hand thing she got from her cousin Dione.
Que lindo!! Tu te emocionaste...
This song saved my life at 6. I wanted to commit suicide and after her telling me I have the greatest love of all inside me...stopped that suicidal Demonic desire. 😔😪😌👏. Keep in MIND I'm 43 this month.
Muito bom🤗🎶🇧🇷
10 points ! NOT 9,5 man! Better ist impossible!
Now I’m litsening to this now. I plan to work on this song. She too good. I just will work on adding my own touch, and to bring life into , my cover.
Can you analyze the music arrangement of whitney's version of Star spangled banner?
Heyy so the tick u mention at 3.28... if you notice a few singers have some for of "tick" "expression" when singing i.e. Mariah Waving hands.. and her spirit fingers (which generally comes when she's riffing)... Whitney does this in all her performances especially! If she is feeling it, u will she her do a "spirit" fingers also.. with her runs or when she feeling it.... other then that it's just her directing her band.
Thanks for the comment! Definitely noticed her doing the conducting of the band. She commands the stage so well! 😊👍
Singers are taught to visualize the notes, especially when they are doing runs. So what you see Whitney doing with her fingers or Mariah does with her hands, they are actually visualizing and playing the notes that they are singing. It's a technique taught to helps singers stay in tune and sing the right notes.
Loved your reaction and commentary! I'm commenting months after your reaction. Have you found a 10 yet? This is a 10 for me.
Thank you! I stopped giving scores not long after this as I realised it was polarising and likely to start arguments, haha. If you take a listen to Queen - You Take My Breath Away - that's a 10 for me :)
@@JWSoundworks2 I will take a listen!
Love this version of Whitney
Have suggested before
Rihannon Giddens singing Mouth Music
( Celtic Connections) video / She is an American from South Carolina, but has studies Opera, plays guitar, banjo and piano
Rihannon Giddens singing La Vie En Rose ( Classic Fench
Rihannon Giddens singing “wayfaring stranger” playing Bango BBC Ireland

Great reaction 🙏🏻 I just love her! 💓 Can you react to her singing the Star Spangled Banner. Also to Mariah singing Emotions on MTV Unplugged.
Também acho foi uma das menhores
You need to watch A song for you live 1991 and/or don't cry for me live 1994. Tear jerker performances for sure.

From guitarist to another.. react to Ichika nito 👍👌
The reason you are not crying (like me) it's because of the constant stoping which ruins the whole feeling of the performance. If you would have listened to it alone without stoping I promise you will get "a tear or two"
A necessary evil, I'm afraid (for copyright reasons). Fair comment. I listened to it afterwards uninterrupted and still didn't cry, though.
P. S Funnily enough, I also went and listened to the original George Benson version after this and found myself becoming more emotional during his. Both incredible versions of a beautiful song.
I get tears too.
This song saved my life as a kid. I wanted to die by 6 she stopped that after I was introduced to this song I'm 43 now
Can you react to do doubt don’t speak live
Please react to bruno mars - calling all my lovelies live @ the apollo please. the musicianship is off the charts!
React to Mariah Carey sining Stevie Wonder's song "You and I". It's a soothing vocal masterclass.
Nice one - I'll add it to the list. Don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss it. :)
Plis 🙏 reacción a Dimash kudaibergen “ love is like i dream “ gracias desde España , plis 🙏🙏🙏subtítulos en español
yes she had a bit of stage fright and did that little tick with her hand when she was anxious or she shut her eyes
Really? That's amazing, it definitely seemed like a way of destressing to me. Thanks for letting me know!
No, that's not correct at all, has nothing to do with stage fright
React to Prince-The Morning Papers official music video
Prince is one of the big ones that passed me by. I'll put it on the list!
can you react to resentment by beyonce live from on the run tour , or beyonces Stevie wonder tribute ?
Please I mean, you must watch Cyndi Lauper's live at last the whole dvd.. Not second best to Whitney I swear.. Start with the dying at least. She was already over 50 in that lice and having a voice of a 30 year old. The technique..
She's also signaling the orchestra
Three minute song with a 25 minute review ?
