Lyrics:
I am changing, trying every way I can
I am changing, I'll be better than I am
I'm trying to find a way to understand
But I need you, I need you
I need a hand
I am changing, seeing everything so clear
I am changing, I am going to start right now, right here
I am hoping to work it out, and I know that I can
But I need you, I need a hand
#WhitneyHouston #IAmChanging #Live - Hudba
This is from 1984, a year before her superstardom began. Impresdive.
I accept this gift from the universe
Mikey Oto yes lord
Yes, we ALL do and will do foreva!
God*
The gift came from God who also created the universe! Jehovah God is infinitely powerful and wonderful and good to us all...Please don't forget him. He has feelings that can be hurt but there is NO weakness found in Him!
@joel prince Gotta represent Joel. I don't like it when people forget. I know it hurts Him but I need to make it known that there is neither flaw nor weakness to be found in Jehovah and to use his name because he has one. Everyone does.
In my opinion, Whitney's chest voice was like a clear lake with no ripples. Just perfect. And her falsetto or head voice, you better back the hell up. No one, not even Aretha or her mama, can match the control Whitney had over her falsetto. The woman is the Voice - this was a clip of the young voice knocking on the door to let you know she's coming.
I can’t think of a soul, dead or alive that was even half as good as Whitney. I too, concur. This woman was simply untouchable!
the amount of chest she pulls up to belt is insanely impressive
For real! No one can match this woman
Yes 🙌 yes she like a 🧜♀️ mermaid-
Amen!
The last time I listened to this song, I was completely broken in every way possible. This song was just a glimpse of God's power that would soon shine into my life and place me on a much better path. As I sit here listening to this, far away from those dark days, I'm greatful. I'm greatful to even type this comment. Jesus is too good.
Yes he is 🥰
AMEN!!!
You Have An
ABSOLUTE WITNESS!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Jesus is GOOD all the time❤❤❤
Goodness, this woman was the best vocalist of all time. God personally kissed that voice...
Nicole Stewart Nicole, I'm so glad that I was brought to the planet the same time Whitney graced it! If I had to explain to someone about this voice, they wouldn't believe me.
Yasss then Cissy added à grand of salt to it. 😍😍😍😍
100% agree with that!
Mariah. enough said
I Just Wish The Band Had Been Better.
I Would Have Been Happier If She Sang With No Music.
Rest In Heaven, Nippy.❤😭❤😭❤😭❤😭❤😭
I MISS YOU SOOOO MUCH.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
That voice is an instrument all on its own.
candid0111 they said her voice was a Stradivarius violin amongst regular fiddles, banjoes & hambones!
@@AnnaMaeBullock that's true
Anyone who doesn't think Whitney is the best, wasn't there for the ride. I fell in love with her voice in 85..... Damn, i miss her
THIS Arista performance may be the most KNOWN version of this song Whitney has done but I urge you to check out the link below. She did this 10 minute concert version about 2 years after the Arista version and it is vastly superior in terms of intensity, power and velocity. It is easily the greatest (and most exhausting) live vocal performance of her entire career; and quite possibly the greatest live vocal performance of all time, from any singer! It is AMAZING.
czcams.com/video/FvWdnimqgeA/video.html
Yes, 1985, I remember sitting in the living room watching the "You Give Good Love Video" in absolute amazement...
No reverbs, no effects, no echoes, just pure raw voice -- The Whitney Houston.
She was the Voice, but that smile Whitney gave so often is heavenly!
If I had ever met her in person and she smiled at me I think I woulda cried and be stuck right where I stood. Fa real tho.
Beautiful voice and smile indeed :)
Her range was ridiculously high in the 80s! This whole song was sung in the 5th and 6th octave!
Yeah she was using a lighter mix to get to higher range. I think her lifestyle made her lose that range in the 90s and also in the 90s she sang with more power which could have also affected her range but her tone made her voice stand out regardless of loss of the range.
@@somebodyouloveLol what mix???? her voice was extremely highhh in the 80s
@@diorrboyyyy yeah so there are different registers to singing. Singing in the mix register makes it easier for singers to access higher notes. Whitney used a more chestier approach to mixing in her later years. In her earlier years it was more balanced(between head and chest)/heady approach. So the approach she used in accessing higher registers in the 80s was lighter than the 90s. The 90s mix had a more darker quality to it. Hope this is clearer to you. Her voice wasn’t a light voice. She just used a lighter mix in the 80s in comparison to the 90s.
@@somebodyoulove Whitneys voice was light lol…. it only sounded darker before childbirth because she was using a tongue retraction technique…. and no she wasn’t mixing her chest voice💀 her chest goes up to g#5…. where are u getting your info from….
Of all singers, Whitney Houston had the widest vocal range, tone, pitch and vocal gymnastics. Even her belting was not constricted and similar to her natural voice....full of emotions.
All of these things are 100% true, but people really SLEEP on how BRILLIANT her TONE was. Going from Head Throat, to Chest and holding it STEADY..
UNMATCHED!!
Whitney was a vocalists in the same light as Donna Summer the only difference was that Whitney made great use of melisma.
I'll disagree on the vocal range and pitch, but what made Whitney THE Voice was the way she connected with the lyrics and could emote like no other singer could. There will never be a singer who had a voice as rich, smooth and expressive like Whitney.
Patently false. Mariah carey is the single greatest singer we have very had by every single technical metric. Her range on both the low and high ends are greater than whitney. She was more capable wirh melisma (agility). Her tone was better. She had an actual vibrato unlike whitney gospel jaw houston. The list goes on. The delusion kf whitney fans is unparalleled. She was great. Not the best. Frankly celine is better too.
@@joeg6114Mariah and Whitney were friends. The ultras can learn a lesson from this here. 😀😀
She sang like rent was due. Baby girl we miss you
The 12 minute London concert version is absolutely unbelievably SICK. She committed a war crime of vocal terrorism against it. CZcams won't let me post links in the comments (noy even CZcams links, which makes zero sense) so you'll need to go to my page. Its the only upload I have so you'll find it right away.
It is truly epic in scale and totally different from the version here in the blue dress. She performed it in a stadium and she gave it everything she had and more. Her band did an amazing job supplying the suspense and drama to match her COLLOSSAL vocals. MUST LISTEN for any Whitney fan.
Be sure to wear headphones. Your speaker phone won't do justice. This is an EXPERIENCE that demands your full uninterrupted attention (of 12 mins) Plz leave a comment either here or on the video itself. I'd love to know your reaction.
Ok!!! Lol 😂
@@MasterSuperBlaster “She committed a war crime of vocal terrorism against it.” 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙌🙌👍👏
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@MasterSuperBlaster vocal terrorism 😅
Her voice here was outstandingly beautiful and resonant.
Ignasi Martí Palet
Everything ist resonance - whitneys special resonance comes from singing insanely loud ;)
Raffael W. No her singing is actually resonant. She doesn’t need to shout because she is a spinto and exudes natural powerful belts! Don’t come for her resonance and support if you don’t know shit!
@@Insert639 She has certain qualities of her mother's voice, but they do not sound the same lol
@@skip031890 I hear some Aretha too but Whithney's voice is more delicate
@4:07 She sounds like Cissy.
she just snatched my soul right out me!!!! SANG IT NIPPY!!!!!!!! i miss the 80s
when she goes from that roar to that whisper at 2:33 it just gives me chills 🥲
She's the best singer of sll time no questions asked
That was her performing before she became the iconic "WHITNEY HOUSTON" and she already slayed that performance. That was iconic in itself
If there was a Time when the R&B girls knew that someone was COMING for THEIR spot…THIS WOULD BE IT!!! 👌🏾
Real singers need no echo, autotune, or any other audio enhancement. 😊
real singers aren't in pop culture no more
Alluring Bliss Adele, keke Wyatt, jasmine Sullivan, Ledisi, Jennifer Hudson, Tori Kelly, Kelly Clarkson watchu mean??
@@mckenzie.8653 they've all been around for over a decade and they aren't topping the music charts nor played in commercial radio
I miss my Whitney.....singing machine.❤
@@alluringbliss4165 You are so right.
2:36 her control and conveying contrast was amazing especially when she sings "now I can see" from a rough to soft transition, so smooth and beatiful!
That made the hairs on my arm stand! #amazing
This is the best vocalist of all times Whitney Houston
Regardless of the personal struggles she went through, Whitney Houston will forever be one of the most beautiful and talented people to have ever graced this world. RIP
lisa yon / Amen.
Amen

2:36 That Effortless Run She Made.....Their Will NEVER Be Another....WH
Whitney Houston can sing dolphins out the ocean. I will forever love her she's #1 favorite female singer always. #RIPlove
She Was A Gift Music For Us From God Classy Beautiful R.I.P. Whitney Love You Forever
Did she say "Yes I Am, Lord"?!!!! Lol....Gone, Whit....Church girl from start to finish!
Yes, she did.
Her voice was out of this world. Miss her so much!
Whitney Fan47 oh yes ! I’m totally agree with you! Her voice is out of this world! The Voice of Heaven!
There is a reason she is called THE VOICE !
I've never seen a singer as talented as Whitney Houston. I don't see talent like that anymore and please don't talk about Screamifer Hudson. Rest in Peace Dear Whitney. You are deeply missed 😢.
Amen.
Screamifer made me 🤣🤣 so freaking hard!!!! Jennifer can sing though but I can understand why you called her that.
Not a screamer a SANGER!😘
Don’t knock Jennifer’s version, it was great also,cannot be discounted. They both are unique and in their own league!
@@TheRetroWoman80 My friend calls her Yellifer... Who's the winner ? Screamifer or Yellifer ?
For the other comments, I'm not saying she isn't a good singer, I believe she could improve her singing, instead of screaming or yelling...
With a corded mic, and out of tune band, she STILL SLAYS? #LEGEND
nufsed909: You better believe she STILL SLAYS!! I took off my wig & shoe & threw it at her! I'm raw w/emotions today. It's the 8 yr anniversary of her early & untimely demise. Missed her then, miss her now. RIP, Baby Girl. WE/I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU.
The accompanying music was so trash. It got better by 1986
Imagine her older label mates being at that party(Aretha Franklin, Angela Bofill, Phyllis Hyman, Etc) and being absolutely blown away by this young girl they’ve never met and finding out she’s their new label mate🤯
Aretha Franklin knew her since she was a little girl. A lot of singers knew her already. You don't just barge on to the music scene like that. It's mostly nepotism. Her first cousin was Dionne Warwick.
@@skip031890But she had great talentm
@@skip031890Well according to Shaderetha she didnt know Whitney could really sing until she heard SAMLY
2:38 That Riff is so amazingly good. It’s HEAVEN
Like, I kept replaying that part 🤯
I think that's one the best she gave. Despite the low recording quality for the image, this moment was magical and this vid remains one of my favorites from WH.
Yes, GOD 🙌🏽
Thank You Jesus For Giving US This Gift Named Whitney Houston Gone But Never Forgotten 🙏♥️🔥🔥🔥🔥
OMG, the vocal dynamics and transitions. I wish I had her voice....
We all tho🤩
I don't think you would want it. It's too powerful. You wouldn't be able to handle it. It would be like putting a 2 year old in the seat of a race car
I would never shut up lol
Her voice is completely complex… and the emotional dynamics she experienced clearly had much influence…. ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
Almost all filipino singers were influenced by her. She’s a different league of her own. You will always be remembered queen of the night.
@@songbird3355 Your name Regine Velasquez song bird
This woman slayed one of the hardest songs in the world live! The heaven’s gates opened as soon as her mouth opened. Those who disliked this must reside over the pits of hell because only demons could dislike this…
This wasn't even her at her best and she still nailed it! This lady was the best. Such stage presence
This was before her first album
Was her best though. ...baby Whitney
@@MrZachariea1 seriously?
@@mcx930 yes this was 1984, debut album released 1985
@@mp-lz4he No her best performance of this song is London 1986.
In terms of technique, she sounds like her mother in this video. Even her vocal resonance, just like Cissy. Thank you Cissy for allowing Whitney to spread love all over the world.
singing so natural to her. It's like eating and breathing for her.
singing so natural to her. It's like eating and breathing for her.
Such a performer, simply one of the best.
The best not one of the best
This is Powerful. Whitney just sang...went into her own little world and just sang. So Beautiful
I would also like to add that this was an Arista Records 10th Anniversay affair, this was live, not recorded in a studio with re takes, stacks and backgrounds layered. Live music is not perfect, but her Power is unmatched! Only haters thumbed this down.
TheMusicalEmpress: Yes, yes & yes. The folks who gave this a thumbs down, need to have their ears flushed out!
1984: "Look at me"
2002: "Whatchalookinat"
HAHA
My heart just stopped. Whitney Houston you are and will be amazing in my eyes. Lord plz continue to have mercy on her soul. 🙏
1:06 I was done. this woman is and will forever be the voice.
It’s crazy she was only 21 right here
Young and hungry...young and hungry. That voice was like a young stallion.
This is a sign if a passionate singer. As she always said that she sang from the heart so that she can inspire others. What I always admire about Whitney is that she was able to enunciate the lyrics of songs and that touches the heart of everyone.
She sang the hell out of that song !!!!!!!!
She is just astonishing here.
cindy Queen , If you think this is astonishing, check out her 1986 performance. She mastered it. 😊
2:25 Her head voice is beatiful and well developed, so is her chest voice too
At 3:00.. but I need a friennnnnnnnnnd! Perfection!
Loved that so much!
I forgot how beautiful her voice was. This makes her end even sadder.
She was always flashy, but the attraction was to her incredible ability to sing strong and loud and soulful
She’s definitely THE VOICE!! What a gift.
I can only imagine if I were in the audience, I would be stunned by her voice & be thankful that I've just witnessed one of the greatest vocalist in the world, ever.....
Ikr. I'd be drowning in happy tears from all that lovely art offering in my emotional space.
LOVE THIS! Whitney was way ahead of her time. Can you imagine if she was this age around now and this video came out? Social media would dragggggg those critics and never let them out again!!!!
She could slay in any setting, small medium or large!
Ladies & gentlemen, THAT is what we call flat-footed, toes down, to the rafters church SANGIN'!
She looks so good without her wigs.
Agreed! I wish we saw her natural hair more often. After this, we predominantly saw this beautiful face framed in wigs.
@@JesusISdaonlyway Like Darlen Love said, "Whitney just wanted to sing". Whitney let them put her wig and makeup on and throw the gowns on because all she wanted to do was sing. Just like she didn't give to much thought on her outer appearance neither should you. The voice is the only thing that mattered.
I can't stand people disrespect Whitney Houston and bring other female artist in this video this video not about Beyonce or Mariah Carey or Jennifer Hudson its about Whitney Houston people make me sick why judge Whitney Houston she was not the only person in the music industry was using drugs so why do people come on this video talk bs this women is singing heart out no audio tunes no lip syncing and no background singers &shake grinding on stage it just Whitney sunnnng
And she accomplished SO much despite of that! She was a gift on this earth! There's never been anyone like her and many things she's done are in the record books! Whitney will remain of this earth! That's what really bothers SOME people. Those miserable souls don't have a prayer.
Me. I am WhitneyHouston Eternal love fan♥ and? All of the women mentioned lip synched and use background singers, but if you think that diminishes their talent that's completely wrong, just like how a comparison to them wouldn't diminish theirs or Whitney's talent. This was far from Whitney's best performance, probably her "worst" good performance, and no comparison will change the fact
PREACH 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yep!
Yes Whitney is flawless Her voice touches mine soul❤️
Wow! ❤. How old was she here? Amazing!
21 Years. 👍❤️❤️💕💕💜💜😍😍
Beautiful voice, beautiful face, beautiful soul! RIP Whitney
❤️🩹🌏❤️🩹🌎❤️🩹 the world is hurting… Whitney sings this here ❤️💜
U betta sang, Whitney!!!
King James she sang that made me cry
I don’t know why her estate don’t get a compilation of unseen videos and or recordings and produce that for theatre instead of giving us drama into her life. We love this Whitney and this is what we want to know.
Unreal! I think her pop records really played down her talents. She clearly had an unmatched ear. The tone - forget it - it may never be equaled in next few generations. She truly was one of a kind.
Why not!? Pop was their million dollar bill. 😎😎
@@thomasrehag1747Dumbass!
R.I.H a true talent 💯truly missed and will never be replaced.
People need to understand....she did this LIVE as in....ONE TAKE.
While others.....had SEVERAL TRIES to do it right(shade)
amennnnn
For real! So sick of these youtubers who critique! I'm waiting to see their performances
Temujin Scott Amen, no filter, autotune, effects. Just raw vocals on pitch.
Exactly!! 💁👏
Micah Modica will
3:54 I love that riff Nippy such a church girl for real!!!!!!!!!!!
Riffin and running like better than Clarks what yall talkin about Nippy was sangin here
Dear God That woman could sing assembly instructions and make it a hit!
She put so much emotion in this performance! Ms. Whitney "The Voice" Houston 😍🙏
It's eerie. It's like she's singing to her future self. The lyrics are so haunting. She DID try her best though, right towards the end. She DID try to change and start again on the bright path. Please don't forget that. RIP mama. RIP Bobbi Kristina. They are rejoined now.
her tone is second to none.....
I love seeing this stripped down, raw version of Whitney. She is rocking her real hair and it is more beautiful than any of the wigs or extensions she would wear. I wish we could have seen more of her like this. I love this video.
Singing was just like breathing for her.. There is just no words.. 👏🏾
She had the voice of an angel..so flawless and beautiful. I miss her. :(
Transition at 2:36 & 4:08 made my cells come alive!! Love Whitney!!

Septiano Almendo no one sang it better than Whitney trust me. You don't want to hear when she sang it another time. You will never be able to listen to anyone else . She is te greatest of all time
Edona Krasniqi nah no one is better than Whitney but Jennifer SNATCHED it
Septiano Almendo no! The original person who sung this was Jennifer Holliday!!! At the time, no one sung it but her.

I was thinking the same thing. Totally!
Yesssss
Hello, future Singer,little girl/boy looking for inspiration. You have come to the right destination !!You are about to hear or are listening to currently …the greatest Of all the singers! Do what she does : practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice, take your voice very seriously but have ease and fun while learning and just know that with Whitney Houston, The Voice, guiding you! You will knock them dead❤
I can sing. Most of the negative comments are from ppl who can not sing, no matter how hard they try. They don't get what it takes to sound this way. When you're a singer or have any talent in singing you recognize a good voice. This is why Whitney Houston is so respected by the most "TALENTED" celebrities.
People don't realize how difficult Whitney's songs were because she made it sound and look so easy
@@mariahyohannes Yasss!!!!! Thank you girl
THANK YOU! Idk what some
of them are saying but us singers get it. Add the fact she was 21-23 and it’s INSANE
The only reason people are mad not liking Whitney's version of I am Changing its because they cannot hit Whitneys notes nor do her vocal acrobatics skills like is you serious???!!! if you cant hit it you must aquit it!
right!
+TORILUV Mari H
it's right!!!!! Ifully agree!! Ciao from Italy....
Y'ah right..
she sang her own style
and her own vocal range
+TORILUV Mari you better preachhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The majestic miss whitney Houston, flawless like a perfect diamond
I LOVE WHITNEY, but nobody can sing this LIKE Jennifer holiday @ RIP nippy FOREVER in OUR hearts
Raw talent ✔️

Damn just hand me my record deal already 😂
Lord she sound just like Momma Cissy here. She betta SANG it like Momma trained her!!!!! Them ladies CAN SANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The anointing on her Voice she felt that Holy Spirit every time she opened her back then.
Why y'all crying, I promise I'm not 😢. I just happened to be cooking cutting up onions 😭. Pure Gift from God ❤❤❤
The Queen !
Whitney Houston-when it comes to Whit be ready for powerfulness and then some...
Just a baby. A gifted child. Rest In Peace. I miss you. I met you in Boston. You smiled at me. … how lucky am I.
my ido,l miss Whitney Houston everybody
No one from new gen of singer can do this. She’s freaking damn Great! I mean if there’s beyond to the word great in terms of singing that what she is. 🥰
2:37...the magic of Whitney Houston. Even in the "smaller" moments of the song; she caresses it with such beauty, but hits it with the complexity of the much bigger parts. This is where many of the singers of today (with the exception of Fantasia, Jennifer Hudson, & a few others) drop the ball. The smaller moments help paint the larger picture; treat them with the same reverence. It's not always about loud & fancy runs.
Amazingly gifted...
Tbh, I find this a little course, but she developed into the voice for, MANY, reasons. And it makes me so sad that she got involved with someone who was, obviously, not a good influence, and started with drugs. What could have been, and now this beautiful woman with all that talent, amongst other intangibles, is gone. The residents of Heaven must be in Heaven!
