    Best voice ever. Honestly...the drug thing is moot at this point. Many many do drugs. She admitted to it. It cost her her life. But in history...that lady sang it all like no other. The voice of my lifetime.

      Do not focus only on the drugs she took , but on the reasons why she needed to take the drugs to relaxe and "escape" her own reality and inner emotions. You have to look further than her perfect appearance and charm. Everybody should take a look into their own more or less irrational and destructive behavior, admitting that it's not always easy to break a negative or self destructive behavior - especially not if you're a sensitive and emotional and easy going person who loves freedom and harmony, but often lived a different stressful and very demanding life often being criticized by the press for many reasons - she demanded so much of herself to help and support so many people in her family. A lot of pressure and responsibility. It looked so easy in her prime years, but she had her bad and sad moments - perhaps she wanted the attention, but I'm convinced she never really wanted or liked to the celebrity life in a cocoon not been able to walk alone on the streets by herself.

      Diane Chavez Whitney smoking weed in her teens isn't a major event like people try to make it. People hype up Whitney's early love of weed as being something abnormal. Whitney didn't start using cocaine until she was already famous. Her brother who introduced cocaine to Whitney said that.

    What i appreciate about Whitney especially in her prime, is how she was just herself. Beauty, style, true vocals, && all, && she kept your attention. She wasnt NAKED, she didnt sing about the CRAP we hear today, she doesnt look like any of the MESS we see today, she was just Whitney Houston. She was so great, sometimes i dnt even believe she knew what she had !! Even when she came back && got into the more up to date times, she kept it real. She didnt change b/c the industry changed. I love her

    The beauty of her live performances was that no 2 were exactly alike. She would phrase and riff differently every time. That's impossible to autotune and lip sync. She was one of the best of a generation.

    Just saw Diamond White covering this song poorly on x-factor despite her amazing voice in other songs, so I thought maybe it's a difficult song to sing live.
    So I wanted to see if Whitney herself struggles with it live.
    Needless to say, I have a whole new appreciation for Whitney after hearing this performance. What an amazing voice.

She loved music so much and she shared that love with the whole world. So now the whole world misses her so much. Not only fans, but all the people who can see how incredibly talented she was.
