@@genavievelinkowski9612 You wanna dance with me? Currently bopping to this cover. This actually made me want to be happy even when Im going through a bad time rn.
Christopher peralta oh it’s actually not, her microphone is different from her older videos making her sound better, but she still sounds amazing and the same
Wow! As a music teacher for over 18 years, I have to say that was a wonderful performance. I can even tell that you're not using autotune to fix anything post performance. And that is so incredibly refreshing. One of the telltale signs of a fantastic performance vocally is that this song is over four minutes long and yet close to the end most weaker vocalists will start to become sloppy or tired sounding. However, I have to point out even up to the last note of this song you have such an amazing control over every note. That control is rocksolid you do a fantastic job. thank you! It amazes me that Disney has not picked you up, and given you a job yet.
@Silverbugle I could not have said that better. The pitch is very good, the quarter note runs, the pleasant tone, the natural and even vibrato. All of it great. What’s funny is, and I think this is telling, when I think of this song and want to hear it? I come HERE instead of even to Whitney Houston!! That is a compliment.
@SilverBugle Also, just as a note, I am a piano player and singer, and my father was the director of bands at both the University of Mississippi and the University of Alabama. Not saying that to be boastful at all! Just saying that I have a music pedigree myself. So yeah I definitely agree with your assessment of this girl. She really is good. Maybe not quite as much power as a Loren Allred or Celine Dion or Ariana Grande, but VERY solid. I also like the note choices she makes. You mentioned fatigue as part of that and I agree with that. But also the choices in the first place, trying runs that aren’t even worth it but are a little bit out of reach for example. She keeps the choices within her abilities and that makes for a comfortable listening experience as you well know. Glad to see your comment sir. I know you are a fine music teacher.
Unless you hear out of tune notes, there’s no way you would know someone use using pitch correction if it’s used correctly and they weren’t very attitude to begin with. Pretty much no matter how good your ear is they’re pretty much no matter how much you record. Yeah, she probably did put autotune over the entire thing but again the only possible way to tell, I promise you, is if you hear attitude notes. And even then they may have used pitch correction software and just missed a note. it’s funny because people constantly say Post Malone is using autotune in his life and he’s way better at singing than me, don’t get me wrong, but I hear attitude notes. It makes me think people are just deaf and they say autotune all the time. He uses it on the recording
The expressiveness of her face and the brightness of her vowels make me think that she would be naturally and incredibly successful in musical theater.
@@emh8861 lol it's not that. Weight has nothing to do with anything. Genavieve is undoubtedly very beautiful. She is a head turner, Im positive she gets alot of attention, even from the guys that say they like their women with some weight.
I was getting ready to be disappointed at it being someone who couldn't sing turning the song into a ballad like so many covers do to difficult songs. I was so glad when I heard the dance instrumental come in and that you weren't actually scared to try to belt it out. Plus you included the key change. I think this is easily the best cover of this song I've ever heard!
Seriously? With all the heavy auto-tune/pro-tools use in this recording, Whitney Houston would be rolling over in her grave if she could hear this atrocity.
A few are saying you lacking anger and passion. Ignore them. Put into your singing whatever emotion YOU feel. Simple joy in a young girl's heart is as true and real as all the negativity and drama!
because modern media is controlled by a bunch of easily offended babies. who believe and demand everyone must be the same. which means people that show talent, unique abilities or have different beliefs cant be allowed a voice because it would break their feeble minds. yay check this guy out th-cam.com/video/n69KLKBhNxM/w-d-xo.html
Because real talent isn’t a thing nowadays sadly. Everyone is auto tuned and crappy and people like her don’t get the attention they deserve. One day REAL TALENT like her will be all around us instead of this Drake and Nicki Minaj and others crap.
@@underthestarsoverthemoon4259 I agree with you, honestly I feel like she is kinda like Tori Kelly. The world shot her down, but look at her now. Tori Kelly is singing Gospel, and I barely or if not at all hear auto tune when she sings. If I could sing, Tori Kelly would be my inspiration and biggest role model.
Erica MacDonald, Well said. Whitney would indeed be so proud. I can remember where I was and what I was doing when I first heard Whitney’s recording of this song back in 1987 - it really cheered me up then, as Genevieve’s cover does now. 😎
Ace Degenerate not really though, there’s no metallic sound which is a dead giveaway. You can’t fake a range like that, and I really doubt she uses pitch correction
3:19 YES, the extra high pitch AYYY part was amazing! So many people who cover this forget that ONE CRUCIAL IMPORTANT part from the Goddess Whitney herself. Thank you for including it!

As someone who grew up listening to Whitney Houston I was extremely skeptical, but this is (by far) the best cover version ever! What an amazing voice!
That key change! Honestly hearing the first word, all by itself, it was so 'in character' for the tone that helps me identify the song. I also like how much fun you're clearly having.
Hard to believe she died more than 12 years ago. I listen tot his at least once a month since you posted this. I use to dislike this song but you completely changed that Genavieve! I really appreciate your music and talent
I’m absurdly picky when it comes to Whitney covers, and not only do I like this one, but it genuinely made me happy to see someone really do this song justice. Standing ovation 👏 👏 👏
i from poland and i i can't speak english very well,and I think that thanks to your talent you will gain more fame and you will appreciate the fact that people from really many countries are watching your channel and this amazing channel ... congratulations
This video popped up in my recommended feed yesterday. This song has to be the one Whitney Houston track that I will never get tired of. Great rendition. Fabulous enthusiasm, too. I've re-watched this video a few times already.
I heard her version playing over the loud speakers in Atlantic station on yesterday in Atlanta and she literally stopped me in my tracks...I said who is this singing this song this good! She had everybody in good spirits that knew this song when it was a hit for Whitney! By far her cover is the best I ever heard.... Wow ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Genavieve, you are truly an amazing singer. God has Corinne singing in the choir of angels while the Lord has you singing here on earth. You go girl, God has a beautiful plan for you along with your crisp and clear voice! God Bless you and your family always.
Been looking for someone covering this song that sounded half decent, your not half decent, your fully awesome! I ended up in tears from the shear awesomeness of the spot on singing ability.
I'm in my mid to late 40's. Whitney Houston's song came out roughly when I was in high school/college. There is only 1 Whitney Houston. But this girl does a pretty good job with this song. At least as far as my untrained ear can tell. Good job.
I agree, only one Whitney. The good black singers just have that added element that's very hard to describe, and makes all the difference. Some call it soul. Bobby Caldwell, and maybe Post Malone, are the only white guys I know that could reproduce it.
Wasn't sure at first, but hitting those highs brought involuntary tears to my eyes. Only a few voices have done that before. (I don't know why that happens). Thank you!
GIRL!!!!! I did not know you till just now!!! You popped up so I listened to you… then another… then I’m like “WHAT SHE WAS ON AMERICAN IDOL!” Then I’m like… oh no she lost her sister… (I’m sorry sweetie)…Then kept watching all your American idol auditions and I’m like HOLY SPIRIT IS ALL OVER HER!!!! You just LOVE so well!! You can see it in your singing! THEN I saw you did thus cover and I’m like SOLD! NEW FAN!!! Wowza girl!!! You GO!!! Jesus absolutely adores and loves you soooooo much!! What a calling and anointing you got!!!
I can not lie, I replayed the beginning with the yea, ooh yea parts so many times. I thought to myself, dang ik the rest of this song will be on fire cuz she came out swinging!!!😍😍❤❤ And you can tell she was really having fun with this song.

Lyrics
Clock strikes upon the hour
And the sun begins to fade
Still enough time to figure out
How to chase my blues away
I've done alright up to now
It's the light of day that shows me how
And when the night falls, loneliness calls
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
I've been in love and lost my senses
Spinning through the town
Sooner or later, the fever ends
And I wind up feeling down
I need a man who'll take a chance
On a love that burns hot enough to last
So when the night falls
My lonely heart calls
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Somebody oo Somebody oo
Somebody who loves me yeah
Somebody oo Somebody oo
To hold me in his arms oh
I need a man who'll take a chance
On a love that burns hot enough to last
So when the night falls
My lonely heart calls
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Don'tcha wanna dance with me baby
Dontcha wanna dance with me boy
Hey Don'tcha wanna dance with me baby
With somebody who loves me
Don'tcha wanna dance say you wanna dance
Don'tcha wanna dance
Don'tcha wanna dance say you wanna dance
Don'tcha wanna dance
Don'tcha wanna dance say you wanna dance
With somebody who loves me
Dance
Wow! Absolutely beautiful cover. Please put up more. You are very talented; young lady.
Whitney had such an amazing voice. It's really hard to do a solid cover and you've achieved it.
I'm French and yet I love listening to your interpretation of Whitney Houston ... She immediately puts in a good mood and we feel that you have a lot of fun singing this one in particular, it's very nice ! =)
You are such a talented singer and I absolutely love your performance of this #1 hit song from 1987.
A very difficult song and you nailed it great job 👍
Congratulations girl, excelent cover of Witney, AMAZING
I have the absolute most love and respect for you Gen!! Your voice is real and pure and raw and you are one of the only people on TH-cam that continually sings Live and doesn't do all of that production crap. Thank you so much for being you and really singing for us you are a true artist and a true singer from your heart. And tell your sister to get her butt on there with you again LOL she sings so good also but never post anything anymore I love you guys!.....Damion
She is an amazing singer but the best thing about this is the joy on her face as she performs. :)
Jejku jak ślicznie❤️ aż od razu nogi rwą się do tańca 💃
