Anybody else randomly miss Whitney? Like really and truly?
I listen to her music often and it puts me in my feelings.
No, not randomly. Lol, its All the time
2020 hall of fame inductee
I miss her constantly 😘 at her best or at her worse , for me she is still the best
Mee 🥲
It's 2023, and it's crazy how I'll never get tired of hearing Whitney Houston. R.I.P Queen she will be missed!!
I'm crying 😭😭😭 watching this and seeing her performing.
My heart breaks 💔💔💔
I have loved her from day one
She will always be my number one vocalist
It’s because Gods in her voice
I love that woman unconditionally❤️🌹she was exceptional as a vocalist but especially as a human being with an amazing and beautiful soul ❤️🙏there will never be another Whitney🙏🙏❤️❤️🌹🌹
Agreed
@@EVER4MJFeel exactly the same!!!!!!!!!!
Even at her worst she was the best of the best.
Omg no doubt!!!!
we still feel her emotions and we still believe every words that came from her mouth
Her tone is always here, unbeatable
EXACTLY!!!!
This is just a CLONE of Whitney Houston. That nose is not the same you see in the movie the bodyguard. That's why she don't have the same voice quality. It's not the same person. She was replaced, and his clone sacrifice in a ritual to the devil.
Her voice was slowly returning it’s so sad she couldn’t stay with us long enough to return to full power 😞
Her voice was definitely coming back. She sounded good here. So sad that the drugs kept calling her back. It ended really bad. I really miss my Whitney so badly.
@@sylviaslydavis405 it was not the drug , but cigarette according to Clive Davis interview.
it was not the drug , but cigarette according to Clive Davis interview.
That's the frustration. It was coming back and getting better
I love Whitney but it wasn’t ever coming back to the level it was.
Augh Whitney singing at 20% of her peak here but sounding better than 80% of the girls singing today. Crazy
Yup
You are correct! She was better than mostly ever singer I heard in my life. I am including Babs, Donna, and all the greats. She has a voice!
True that.
On BIG GAWD (GOD) ❗❗❗
YES
Reba saw her giving glory to God, and respected her fight and struggle and survivor’s spirit.
When I saw Reba's reaction, I teared up.
Yes Reba had me in tears. This was the real whitney you just felt it. This song gets me thru it still, no matter how hard it gets. You’re strong!🥺❤️
Crazy how even at her lowest she was ten times better than most singers today
It's 2021 but im still watching her videos...she's timeless..
❤️
Samee
So am I
Me and you both
I couldn't more agree !!! Yes she is :)
She's not only singing, she's telling a story. I'm sold.
Still sounds better than 80% of singers nowadays
Periodt
Who is the 20% that's close. I can't think of 5%
Exactly! Maybe even less than 5%
More than 80% !!
@@eugenejoseph6910Jennifer Hudson is the only one that comes to mind.
Never Replaced, never duplicated : The one and only WHITNEY. THE VOICE
Yes Lord yes, original Whitney Houston OG
Exactly!
The last few seconds of the performance shows really why she's called the VOICE
Look at the audience!
They didn't take a seat for the entire performance. Whitney earned the highest respect!
We miss you, The Voice!
Great observation brokenglass. Setting looks heavenly. Whitney still the bomb!
You can tell how happy she was with this performance. She knew her voice was truly coming back after years. R.I.P
This is one of my favourite performances of Whitney because she is really singing to herself and saying how proud she is that she overcame her addiction😭❤️💔
How did she die and what was her addictions?
Yess
But she didn’t. It was premature
@@Gemmarose9012 yes she did many times before the final time of her passing
@@inegbenoseosose982 Cocaine, she used the drug heavily throughout her career. She died in 2012 after accidentally drowning in a bathtub after using cocaine and a mix of prescription medication
Her voice here may not be her best as we knew, but her stage performance and the way she connected to her audience is singular and incomparable. Rest well THE VOICE.
Her voice was starting to come back here, miss her so much 🙏🏽😢 9 yrs
It really was. I'd forgotten about this performance. She was truly AMAZING! Always.
I'm so glad she was there to accept this award. She is was and will be the voice forever
RIP GOAT#thevoice
Absolutely. I love that she was so celebrated towards the end of her life. A lot of these artists don't get the recognition they deserve until after they've passed and it no longer matters.
I love the fact That Samuel L is not just reading the teleprompter, thats actually how he feels! Then at the end he doesnt just hand her the award, he reads it annunciating WHITNEY HOUSTON and takes his time reading then enscription giving her a moment to bask in the love everyone in that building had for her. Thats how you honor THE VOICE
Ikr
Because he was once in a deep drug addiction himself and he came out of it. It was also personal for him as well.
I hate u with ally heart
Denisa this you done I knew there was some thing not right
@@babeandrews4443 say what?
She was ripping it out of her soul...and her soul, her core never died. Never died with her. Alive forever, Miss Whitney Houston 🌟🙏👏❤️
Imagine standing there and listening to Samuel L. Jackson read your award out to you. That was her "I made it" moment! ❤
I cried so hard cause I miss her and her voice touch me so much I always love you Whitney 😭😭💔💔
Cv
There are only two kinds of singers. Whitney Houston & then everyone else.
She sang soo good that night!😭
Sadly that she isn't with us now...💔
Still here in 2024. Miss you madly
The lighting was perfect at the end. Made her look like the Goddess she was. R.I.P. Queen.
No matter what, she still had that Tone 🤧
It was so raw and real . The late iconic legendary DIVA, Whitney Houston
And even at her worst she gave it all live 100%. What an amazing performer she was
I don’t know how you can watch this without at least getting teary eyed. Whitney…me MISS you. We will always love you.
I remember crying after this performance. She sounded so good! Miss you Whitney!
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore
@@ericmoore1173 fine thankyou & yourself?
@@andilamont I'm good thank you
@@andilamont so where are you from
Moi aussi.
Speak to me lord through her voice
It really hurts to think that she's gone forever. I really miss her.
I love Reba. She is truly a wonderful person to understand her struggles.
For real, when Reba teared up, I got in my feelings.
My Reba. ❤❤❤
Well deserved of the award!!! She's irreplaceable for me..
For me too.
Me too.
Same
Yes dahhling Whitney was incomparable.I miss my friend,I remember butterflyriah and her sing When you believe
Man I wish she and her daughter had left that hotel and perused her dream to retire on that Caribbean island
SHE WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE VOCALIST...SHE PAVED THE PATH FOR SO MANY SINGERS PERFORMING TODAY...JUST AN ICON
I believe people can just stop attempting to compare Whitney Houston to other singers she had her own style her own voice and no one in my opinion can compare to Whitney Houston.
People mite want to sound and look like you Whitney but they'll NEVER come close. The Lord doesn't make duplicates THERE'S ONLY ONE WHITNEY. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU and Bobbi Christina. ✝️
Who is still listening to this masterpiece in 2023?
today, 9 years ago, we lost Ms. Whitney Houston, the realest The Voice 🥺🥺
After all she came through, she still had a voice. Ooh Lord thank you for giving the world Whitney
Her absence is very much felt 🥺🥺🥺
The world misses Michael, Whitney, and Prince! They were both taken at a young age!!
It's like Whitney was singing about her situation
I think she was.
We just needed you to hold on a little longer Nip, God was truly restoring the voice. Will always love her 🙌🏾💚
I was there. This was a jam packed award show. I feel so blessed to be able to have seen Whitney, Prince twice, Natalie Cole , and Chester Bennington w/ LP twice before they transitioned.
Chester Bennington???? UGH!!!! and prince??? UGH!!$ so jealous!
How did she sound in person? What was it like?
Reba was so rooting for her
"First giving honour and Thanks to God.." Amazing. I love it when celebrities are u apologetic about God. She was truly anointed by God
We coming to the end of 2022 and let me tell y'all we still banging to her. Ms Whitney Houston you still truly missed and loved.
Her music saved my life. I will forever be indebted to her. She has always been the Queen and will always be!
Keep smiling
ALWAYS!
This is the type of songs I absolutely love.
one of the vocal trinity, they sang the highest, the loudest, the highest. The most impressive use of their voices, technique. Three women who dominated the power ballad genre to the point where no current singer or artist dares attempt to sing these types of songs anymore.
This was the best she looked and sounded during this time period! Just beautiful!
She’s still “The Voice” I Love This Performance, every time she sang ,she touched everyone’s heart , We Love you and We miss You Whitney 😞😢 RIP Queen 👑
Always loved this performance. My favorite performance of the 00’s from Whitney. Absolutely amazing
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore
Ms. Whitney was so cute and beautiful here!! The way her was cheering for her at the end of the song I love this song and I love her I really do!! They will always be missed and loved she was my favorite singer and idol but she with the lord and that’s why I love about her she always have that good spirit
Even if her voice was no longer in perfect condition, she could still move an audience to tears. That magic sparkle and exuberance of old Whitney was evident here and she was absolutely glowing! Beautiful lady inside and out. Much missed and fondly remembered.
That's why its good to give ppl their flowers while they're alive, you never know how long again they will be around for.
Even on her worst day, she was vocally superior to most in the industry (past and present).
Because a singer's "voice" is much more than the actual voice, most of it is her musical artistry. She felt the music and had her way to tell a story. That will still shine through and is much more interesting than a technically great performance without artistic intent
I can't say that I randomly miss her. I miss her EVERY DAY. AN ICON!!
Whitney was a nice person. The media made fun of her too much.
We have had many amazing artists come and go, but no one commands a stage and has that presence that Whitney has. Even has her voice declined, she knew how to make an audience feel whatever she was singing. She IS the greatest singer of all time. Miss you!
When I miss her I play " I look to you."
Whitney in all Her Glory.
I remember watching this show and waiting for the legendary Whitney Houstons big come back! It was powerful!
Her VOICE Touched Our ❤
I miss this angel's voice. She saved my life at times.
We were all pulling for her. I just wished she had people around her that would have told her. Your fans will be here . Take your time and heal fully.
2024 still not tired of listening and watching nippys video...
Babyface didn’t seem touched, then tried to play it off when the camera was on him. Carrie Underwood looked lost and annoyed, probably not the greatest person. But she’s a white country so I don’t expect her to relate or care. I love Reba, she’s one of the good ones. I started to tear up when I saw her face at the end. Whitney was a fighter, brave and courageous. A lot of people wouldn’t had the guts to handle half of what she did. A true inspiration, incredible black woman. May she Rest In Peace and I know she is!
That was Jermaine Jackson not Babyface
Bobbi Kristina was so proud of her momma! 😢 It’s so sad how they died the same way. At least they’re together now like they were meant to be. May God bless their souls.
Well she was caught in her mothers fame an drug abuse. So sad
And Bobbi Kris is a sweetie and was so pretty
I was in tears when this was aired . Like she proved all them Haters wrong with this performance it was breath taking. Even doe i have the privilege of seeing her on her nothing but love tour in London and she was good but I think they should of waited a little longer untill she was ready stamina wise to sustain the amount of songs night to night , her management failed from that angle in my opinion.
Very true
So true
In my opinion, they should have not done the concert in the first place. Whitney couldn't just pull it. The album was enough for us fans already. The wisest decision that they should have thought about was to hold a One Night Only mega concert. And that's it. It would have made us all happy and excited.
@@nemospence2724I saw an interview where she was in rehab but if she didn't go on tour, she would have lost her home.
@@thinker185 Oh. So doing the tour was a good idea then?
This is one of my very best Whitney Houston live performances, i remember watching it and feeling a big relief that she has finally beaten her demons! She looked healthy and back on track😥😥😥
Same. After she got dragged for her GMA performance, I was nervous about this performance, and I wanted her to win so badly, and show the people she still had it-and she SLAYED! When Reba cried, I cried.
its 2024 and i still love this performance
She didn't know she had the strength to stand on that stage amongst her critics, she really found her strength right there RIH queen ❤
What's so moving about this performance is how regardless of the difficulties she faces in even getting air out of her lungs, she still "does it," and by "it" I mean that magical thing that only she can do and which she was born to do, and she knows that, and she fights for it ... she still shows joy in singing, she still carries herself with integrity, she still exudes confidence and magnetism, she still employs massive creativity in phrasing and pushes herself to her limits, she still shows grace and humility to the audience while at the same time commanding its respect, and most importantly, she still channels the song from her soul. She's quite literally singing for God, and the fact that she succeeds in eliciting anything more than pity -- that she actually succeeded in deserving a standing ovation on her own merits, even if just barely -- is a hugely powerful and beautiful thing.
Wow, she looks like a beautiful dream 😓
This song was such a testimony
You can see in her eyes she’s singing this about her self truly wonderful such an amazing voice she really was one of the greatest ❤️
Wao..wish she was alive..always with us..her music 🎶 her strength..
Whitney still moves me to tears after all of these years. What a proud moment to show her peers, the fans and the world baby I’m still here and I’m still standing!!!! I miss that Nippy ❤
The glorious presence that Whitney commanded on stage just never ceased.
Never!
The people stood as soon as her name was mentioned,and they remained standing through out this beautiful moment in life, what a beautiful memories, ,"the Voice "
It really must have been difficult for the old Whitney to compete with the musical and vocal abilities of her younger self.
But she showed up and did what she loved best, she was a true definition of a fighter and a person who has confidance in God above all else.
God, She's beautiful.....
God Bless Her Beautiful Soul indeed ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very rarely does someone hear a voice that touches their heart, Whitney was that voice that touched our hearts. There will never be anyone like her again. Thank you, God, for giving her this gift and allowing her to touch us all with her voice. She was truly one of a kind. I hope she's with the other angels and still touching hearts in some way.
Whitney Houston was a phenomenal artist, an astounding talent. ♥️
You can still see the hope & beauty in her eyes.
2021!!! This song pulled me through a dark place in 2020. When I start feeling some type of way, I listen to this song to remind myself.
When she came back I was pulling for her every step of the way....love her and miss her...always...
There will never be another that can compare to this phenomenal woman. Her music is timeless and classic.♥️
With all that's going on in the world, this makes me cry, I really don't think she really knew how much she was loved by her fan's, her music helped me on many nights
Whitney Houston will always be The Voice!!!
I love her because she didn't give up & through her life she gave people hope. That's what a real artist does.
Still missing you... 🫴 💐 🌌
2:47 you could tell she was happy with the way she sounded 🥲 just crying watching her man. nuts. she may be gone but she will live forever ❤️
I had hardly recovered from losing Michael before she left us three years later. Still breaks my heart. ❤❤❤
WHITNEY=THE MOST EXQUISITELY GIFTED VOCALIST OF ALL-TIME!!!
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
The perfect song for coming back. I miss you Whitney Houston ❤️

Forever miss you Whitney Houston I wish you were still here but never theless I will always celebrate you
She still had the magic that made her so special.
2022 and still listening. I remember watching this and thinking her problems were nearly over. RIP Whitney.
She still lives in all of us who have been touched her music and her smile.
Every singer in that audience wishes they had it like Whitney Houston. The best ever
