Imagine her singing this at the finale of The Voice this year. It's game over for the other contestants lol.
That would diffinatly do it
She better sing her hit, "Come in out of the rain"!
Imagine phew
Yes!!
Please I want this to happen
She deserves to be mentioned among names like Aretha, Patti, Mariah, Whitney, Celine, Tina, Chaka, Gladys, etc. She can definitely hold her own with the best of them...And David Foster can sure spot talent! She will go very far on "The Voice" this year, too! Not that I'm a new fan, however, since I own CD's and cassettes of all her 90's recordings...Don't forget "Whatever You Imagine" for "The Pagemaster" soundtrack, "Forever Yours" from the "90210" soundtrack, and hits like "Come In Out Of The Rain", "Step By Step", "So Close To Love" and more!
IVE BEEN SAYING THIS!!!
Don't forget Donna Summer 😀
Watch Donna Summer & Seal sing with David Foster & Friends.
Yes she most definitely does, she is absolutely amazing. She definitely deserves to be a super star, an icon.
She sang backup for Celine Dion and Faith Hill. When she decided to go solo both of them were cheering her on. So many well known singers and others in the industry had high hopes for her. Somebody on her manager team, her promoter and record label didn't do they job.
How in the hell is she not a star already? Since I saw her on the voice I have searched everywhere for her. Her career has been amazing!
Cos life is suck as usual 🤣
And how sad it is that she has to compete in a singing competition to show her worth
Because she sounds too much like Whitney (or better) Clive Davis attempted to sabotage her career to keep it from overshadowing Whitney in the 90s
You are so right
My favorite song that she sings All I do with Kirk Whalem came in 1998 still have the cd
Foster's prediction is still gonna come true, sometimes it just takes more time... absolutely gorgeous 🙌
True
Go team Blake and Wendy! Another potential winner this season.❤️
Right that's what I'm saying. I'm here because I seen her on the Voice past Monday. Then I started crying because of thought of Whitney Houston.
Why did this woman not become a superstar? Glad to see her on The Voice - her voice is velveteen gorgeous.
Wendy where have you been?
The winner of 2021 voice is Wendy moten
If this woman does not win the voice 2021 I will no longer watch that show
100% should win! Wowwww this performance was amazing
Me neither
We’ll get ready to find yourself a new show, because the voice gets it wrong 99.99% of the time. They like a younger artists. It’s still hard baking on this true gem right here. Her age, her presence. Ppl think because an artist is older, they won’t have enough shelf life. But in today’s day and age, she’s phenomenal and she can do so much more. Her vocals are even better today, than 10 yrs ago.
I won’t be offended if Girl named Tom wins though
@@captainkill21 even if she wins, shed still be irrelevant, she's old and she already had her time. Her Come on in out of the Rain was a global hit. But winning in the Voice doesn't really mean anything anyway since it's just a show made for the coaches. Contestants are just props. Come and gone.
She was already this incredible......but right now it's like she unlocked a secret level in the Vocal chords.
You go girl!!!!!
Why does this not have millions of view?
Listening to other people sing this song makes you realize how great Whitney really was and is.
She deserves to win
The Voice brought me here........one of the best live performances I have ever had the pleasure of watching........
She sounds great but its Whitney's TONE!!! THAT BRINGS IT TOGETHER FOR ME. love wendy moten big fan.
Who is listening to this beautiful rendition in 2023? Wendy is amazing!!!
Please sing this at the finale... please 🙏.
Wow she's amazing! She has a huge voice, huge range, I can hear controlled runs. I bet she would sing the hell out of Mariah Carey song and Celine Dion.
She can sing the hell out of anybody. I would even say she's better than Whitney.
@@ruthtrentwood3374 better??? looool How exaggerated you are. No one can beat Céline, Mariah or Whitney and no one can interpret a song by them better than themselves. Even though I adore Wendy and I think she is one of the best voices of the 90's and that she could have followed in the wake of Divas of the 90's like Whitney, Céline, Mariah, Janet, Shania, Alanis or Toni.
@@11rokerito Sorry but I find Wendy to be better than Mariah and Celine as vocalist, at least to my ears. Her voice is far more powerful, sweeter, and her range is just as broad with more control (no need for whistle notes here). In terms of being compared to Whitney, they're pretty equal in my book. Whitney just possessed a darker, more colorful, more mysterious vocal instrument. But in terms of talent, Wendy is right up there with the very best!
@@philhenderson3516 No Wendy is not
Sorry but Mariah, Whitney, and Celine didn't get "Vocal Trinity" title for nothing
WENDY IS A LITERAL GODDESS
David Foster knows talent.
It’s such a tragedy that Wendy Moten didn’t have a similar trajectory as Whitney Houston … such a phenomenal talent.
I miss Whitney. Thank you Wendy for bringing her back ❤️
You should listen to glennis grace, she’s Whitney’s reincarnation
@@Judexxxxxjjjjj Glennis also resembles Whitney physically, and she's an excellent singer, but Wendy is on another level vocally imo. Wendy's IWALY version is the absolute best I've heard from any singer aside from Whitney. Whitney remains the best because of her tonal colorfulness, something that cannot be replicated. But if anyone can bring justice to Whitney's hallmark, it's only Wendy followed by Glennis.
@@JudexxxxxjjjjjVocally this comes way closer to Whitney, this lady studied Whitney, Glennis has the tone but not the ears and musicality like Whitney had.
I was 4 years old when she sang this. She's gonna win the voice
I've always loved Wendy. I had her album as a kid and never felt she got her due. I'm praying she can on The Voice, because she deserves it. We need real singers these days!
Also, I'm picking AF about people doing Whitney, Mariah and Celine, but Wendy did amazing with this!!!
PLEASE WENDY YES, SING THIS SONG AT THE FINALE OF THE VOICE..."I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU"... Best Singer on the Voice...I didn't even realize that you even ATTEMPTED to sing this song until I Googled it! BLOWN ALL AWAY AND WIN THIS SING...PLEASE. WENDY...This IS Your Time!!!Please SING THIS SONG!!!
2021 and she still hits her high notes. Wendy is amazing!
Come on Wendy
I happy you stayed the course. Time for light to shine bright.
.
All Praises to YAH my Sister for he gifted you with a beautiful singing voice. Whitney Houston's songs especially that one ain't easy to sing. One of my favorite songs by her. This woman did Excellent 👍👌💯🌻🌷😋👑. The song touches your soul and heart Deeply..
The Voice lead me to this thing of beauty!
I am so looking forward to Monday night.... thanks Wendy you give us 50+ ers the knowledge we can still go out and do anything we put are hearts to xxx
All the singers mentioned in the previous comment would certainly pay to listen to this extraordinary woman
She held her own against Whitney, and I do not say that light just wow 👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️
She did. I thought it was Whitney, but I knew something was different. She's still copying Whitney's vocals. She has her own greatness. She doesn't have to be Whitney. There is a reason Whitney dominated.
@@mykaperry2172 This is the vocal arrangement for the song created by David Foster and initially interpreted by Whitney. Wendy is following the same vocal script, which is why it is almost identical in pacing and rhythm. She's the only one I've heard to do it so perfectly like Whitney.
Whitney re arranged this from what David gave to her!! #writeitdown
@@frankbogan8959 ah ok 👍 interesting 🤔
@@philhenderson3516 Watch Glennis Grace and Belinda Davids
Good luck on The Voice journey. Supporting you all the way from Ghana.
She had said in early interview that already had a Whitney and they didn't have room for a nother. Wow!
I remember Wendy from back in the day as a professional singer. A great talent she has; great vocalist. But as you noted, Antoine Swans, she's exactly right. Many have tried imitating Whitney's sound, but anyone with a good ear can tell the difference right off. David Foster made the same prediction about Whitney and it came to pass. However, there are many reasons why many of her "imitators" haven't reached Whitney's success and won't. For starters, Whitney Houston was one of a kind, an original gifted by almighty God. She was indeed the whole package: stage presence, elegance, charisma, beauty, vocal control & range, brilliant & distinct enunciation & musical phrasing, and a very special anointing from the Lord. Hence, she remains The Voice to this day. There are many imitators, but only ONE originator: Whitney Elizabeth Houston. I knew Wendy would go far on the The Voice because she's still very talented. Even if she doesn't win The Voice this year, she's good. Her resume speaks for itself.
I remember people always comparing her to Whitney. And to be honest, they sounded similar. I think Whitney was discovered first so she seemed like a copycat. But we’re from the same city… everyone knew she was a star here.
I pray you win the voice. You definitely deserve your flowers.💐
Omg good luck with her fellow contestants on the voice
Shame on music industry!!! WHY I have never heard about her until I have watched the voice?? .... unbelievable...
Easy.. the industry is/was not willing to invest money in multiple artists at the same time. They'd rather focus all the marketing money on a single revenue stream instead of multiple, it's easier to control and less risk of the money maker being poached by the competition and suddenly disrupting the revenue. Wendy Moten's story is not too dissimilar from that of Phyllis Hyman, Lisa Fischer, Rachelle Ferrell, etc. All equally talented with 'out of this world' voices yet pushed aside by the record labels because they were seen as revenue threats to the already established and heavily invested Whitney and Mariah.
So glad Mrs. Wendy; is perusing her Singing career as a solo artist ,,, This woman has an amazing voice I remember her first song from the early 90's "Come In Out of The Rain" and a Stevie Wonder song "All I Do and so so so many other songs. Wendy Moten is extremely a talented Artist and song writer. Oh and you must see some of the Artist she performed Duets with.. WOW!!!!! Now "The Voice" will have the highest Ratings/Views Ever, and for sure I am looking forward to seeing Blake take the Trophy again with Wendy Moten on his TEAM!!!!!!!
You deserved that win Wendy. You ARE the voice. The best I’ve ever heard!
I love her voice! Like a softer Whitney and angelic.
Jesus she singing better and clearly than the show, but she is a complete star, I LOVED SO MUCH HER
Stop using God's name in vain
One of the best singers I have seen in a long time..
holy shit….. i want ariana to win the voice season 21 but goddamn this woman’s voice is amazing how the hell is she not famous yet
Wendy is definitely a star 🌟🌟🌟, tough competition this season.
Tears.... This is SO beautiful... OMG.
If you have listened to Come On in Out of the Rain and her first album the problem was the producers. Come on in Out of the Rain is a song you could easily hear Whitney perform if she was in good vocal health. They should have dug into that kind of music at this time in her career. I've heard other people try to imitate Whitney on this song, but Wendy is not doing that. He voice has its own roundness and brilliance that is uniquely hers. I'm actually mad at the person who cancelled her record deal. If she was on David Foster's radar and the beauty of her single she deserved the focus to create the album that would have launched her career. Now approximately 27 years later, she comes out of the shadows and I hope she claims what should have been hers all along. The winner. The contract. The right music and a career that leads to sold out stadiums. I will buy ANYTHING she releases. What a gift.
Crystal clear 🥺😍
Wow I didn't think I would ever hear another so clear like Whitney Houston
This why i mistake her with Whitney Houston when she released her fist album.
Now i understand why she chose Blake! she's going to win
Yup I think she knows she just needs to navigate the industry and she's been in Nashville and blake has shown to give his ppl the right connections so I can fully understand her choice
Goosebumps
Can't wait to see what happens on The Voice !!!
Wow😀 She comes close to Whitney Houston
Impressive.
I'll keep it simple. Very talented, way underrated with an AWESOME voice.
the voice led me here!
Sadly, her greatest asset was also her greatest fault...a voice that is so similar to that other "voice". As a result, she just didn't get the recognition she deserved. The talent is undoubtedly up there, but she needed a signature sound. Something that would have set her apart from the rest. It took me a while to realize that it wasn't Whitney singing "coming in out of the rain".
All that aside, I really enjoy listening to her. Wishing her all the best.
Here after her performance on the voice
love you wendy wondering etc x
Completely bewildered, never heard of her until I saw her at the Grand Ole opry one night. She was pretty and she could hit every note Whitney hit, damn, not fair.
One of the finest female vocalists. Beautiful Wendy Moten X
Damn! And, notes all hit!
Omg her voice!!!!!!!!!
She had me the 1day she sang & I prayed please go to Blake & it’s been Majic ever since. Wendy, I’ll be in line to buy your record & yes I believe the winner will be you on The Voice! Sing this on the finale.
❤❤❤❤Best version after Whitney!
Flawless voice
I love your voice Wendy.
Brilliant ... 👋👋👋
Just amazing! You already won for me
she sang the song effortless,she really naild it..👍👍👍👍
So beautiful. Love your voice Wendy
Stunning!
What a live performance and what a band. 🔝
Wow!
Simply AMAZING! I just heard you're working with my friend Michael J. Thomas in April. He shared this video in his newsletter today. You're awesome !!! ❤❤❤❤❤
so special
A sure winner here!
Perfect
Beautiful! All the best in The Voice, Wendy!
Wendy's has been a force! So far she's covered Aretha on this season. If she sings this, it's a wrap!
What an injustice that she is not known as well as Whitney, Celine an so one. Man...best of the best
Yess sannnng I’m Hear For It
Amazing!!! What a beautiful voice.
Wendy is amazing ❤️
Love youu my idol
Her voice is pretty.
And I still cant believe she picked Blake as her coach which is amazing picker 😂😂😂💕💕💕😘😘😘
Stunning performance
For God's sake this is by far the best cover ever heard of this wonderful Whitney's classic.She definitely keeps up the majestous high vocal quality the very Whitney used to have when performing this in her prime and for so many years!!!.Absolutely outstanding performance and I did ignore Wendy was able to sing like this!!! ❤❤❤ Way better than Glennis Grace and Deborah Cox's covers and than every other vocalist who ever dares to this hard hit!!! 👋👋👋💯
As a radio announcer I remember she was the woman who sounded exactly like Whitney! What a gift and what and a curse! She should have been a much bigger star!
The BEST rendition of Whitney's performance, and almost a complete copy.
Something else altogether. She's Special 👌🏿👌🏿
Greetings from Uganda 🇺🇬👊🏿🖤
Her song Come In and Out of the Rain is famous in the Philippines.
also in Indonesia n Japan
The Wonderful Wendy Moten.
驚人的嗓音
SIMPLY GORGEOUS!🥃💋
Truly a Diva!
The best do not always win on these shows. It is a lot like Facebook but it will give her exposure. She has nailed all of her songs.
❤❤❤❤
I am subscribed 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
OK, I guess Whitney is still alive by the look of things.
Or, she’s Whitney’s sister.
Right‼️
I HAVE NEVER HEAD SOMEBODY WHO SING THIS SONG THIS MUCH CLOSE TO WHITNEY!
