    Lyrics:
    Didn't we almost have it all
    When love was all we had worth giving?
    The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
    Loving you makes life worth living
    Didn't we almost have it all?
    The night we hold on 'til the morning
    You know you'll never love that way again
    Didn't we almost have it all?

It's so rare to see such an honest and vulnerable performance, underpinned by unspeakable talent... Miss you Ms Whitney!!

    My Whitney story. I am in my seventies and I was at that concert 3rd row with my friend Gina. This was one of the eight concerts that I saw Whitney in the mid eighties, all in NY state. I met and talked to her on two occasions, once in Lake Placid and also Saratoga. We were obsessed with her and new we were seeing musical history in the making. At Lake Placid, we went to the Holiday Inn where they were staying around noon (the day of her concert) and saw Ricky Miner and some of her band in the lobby. Everyone was nice and told us Whitney would be coming to the restaurant at some point. Gina and I waited in the narrow hallway. About 30 minutes went by and we looked up and there was Whitney, Robyn Crawford and a bodyguard face to face 3 feet away from us. It was probably the most exciting, surreal feeling I have ever had. Having seen all her videos numerous times she was so beautiful like a Barbie doll come to life right before our eyes. It was just the 5 of us. We told her how much we loved her and couldn't wait to see her that night. We talked to her for about 5 minutes and she signed my vinyl album. A little later she came out of the restaurant and signed some autographs. Gina and I talked to Robyn off to the side during that time and she was really cool. We were in the first row that night. We had seats in row 16 already so we gave two girls $100 to change seats with us. Of the 8 times I saw her, 5 of those were 1st or 2nd row from stage. Too see Whitney live was so incredible and there is no doubt in my mind she is the greatest singer of all time (I have seen many of the best during my life). This video at Saratoga Maybe the best of all of her live videos and I feel so blessed to have been there to see it. I remember her telling the audience they were doing the video and everyone was so excited about it. I also met her brother Gary at Saratoga Radisson hotel in the afternoon of her concert and he gave me 2 3rd row seats after I showed him my 300 page album I had made to honor her. She looked thru my album and jokingly asked if I was giving it to her and I said I don't think so, she autographed my album which I still have. I also gave her roses each of the two years she performed at the NY state fair when she did her first song, one being "How will I Know".

      The Entertainment Industry is cruel. They see you as a product and not as a human. Poor Whitney she had to be the persona and not the real person she was. I miss her so much and listening to her sing still brings tears to my eyes. She should still be here with us. 😭

      Yes. Saw the new movie last nite. I left it thinking of this with her, MJ, Elvis, Curt Cobaine, Janis and others. It's true of the industry, but there are other factors under the stars control. Money a huge one. Some entertainmers survive and some don't. Stay away from drugs, period. It never ends well. Whitney's case makes me cry every time seeing her. She was just magnificent.

Being as beautiful as she was definitely had a major impact on how quickly she became popular as a singer... especially in the era of MTV, VH1, etc. Just a fact.

    And that ladies and gentlemen is how it's done. Pay close attention cause you'll probably never see it again. The greatest voice of all time. I love how she's controlling the band at 3:22 she's telling them "bring it up, cause I'm about to go off". And again at 5:19 where she tells them "take it down". I can remember sitting up half the night watching VH1 waiting for this video to come on.

      I never noticed that till you pointed it out! I thought her hand gestures were just part of her “feeling the music.” Even though it was probably both, she did an excellent job at controlling the band and telling them to quiet down at moments she knew her voice needed to be in the spotlight.

      This is what makes me happy ! When people like you can describe a voice.. it’s more than just holding a note. When you have the techniques as you mentioned, THATS when I will listen to these current singers. Whitney and others from her time had talent, and they had some of the techniques you mentioned! But by all means, Whitney had the whole formula from resonance, pitch, accuracy, melismas, agility, falsetto, dynamics, breath control, connected registers, interpretation, musicality, I could go ON! She wasn’t human 😭✨
