Whitney Houston - Star Spangled-Banner

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ก.พ. 2012
- Among the annals of national anthems as a prelude to sporting events, few have topped the one delivered by Whitney Houston before Super Bowl XXV in 1991 in Tampa, Florida. A woman, her incredible voice, and the bare minimum of extraneous notes. Her rendition came at a particularly patriotic time, just after the onset of the Persian Gulf War, and was released as a single. It was re-released after the September 11th terrorist attacks. Houston donated all proceeds to charity. She ranks among the best of all-time because of the circumstances and ... that voice..
This video includes carefully synchronized closed caption (CC) so the audience can learn the words to this song.
She set the bar too high. No one will ever exceed this performance.
*Very well said* 💯✔
Cee Fuller exactly
Yep yep yep!
Demi did well but not this
NO ONE....
THE benchmark for singing the American National Anthem.
This ain't the benchmark, its the crown
@@DC21NY The crown? It’s the whole kingdom. 🙌🏾
This can't be the benchmark cuz no one else can do it so that's not fair.
None will ever be better!!!
@@borstfamily9702 😭 I MISS WHITNEY AND HER VOICE SO MUCH, THIS WAS SO SIMPLE TO HER AND SHE LOVED DOING IT !!!!
Why don't they just play the recording of this version at every super bowl every year.....?? They'll never be a better.
THE FORTY NINERS DUMB ASS... THIS IS VERY WERY GOOD .. BUT SHE DIDNT SET THE BAR TOO HIGH !!! THE COCAINE DID
Yes! No one’s going to come close to this!
This..
Literally lol
@@sedwards2207Mariah Carey’s was close
23 years later and this still gives me goosebumps. You were a national treasure, Ms. Houston. Won't ever be another like you.
So well said...thank you
Nobody has sang our National Anthem as good as this woman has………NO ONE
TheBlakmajik78 I totally believe this, she was amazing… it's so tragic :'(
I agree.
TheBlakmajik78
agreed. But others - especially the 'I-love-so-and-so" and have not ability to listen critically will prefer others' versions. Clearly, they are neither singers, nor people who can see past their own personal preferences. That's why you have such vitriolic responses on sites these days. The under 30 crowd was not around when the REAL singers were singing, so their basis of comparison is pretty poor.
Mcbrion1951 just because somebody is under 30 does not mean that we were not around for real singers. Luciano Pavarotti is one of the greatest singers of all time and i was around for him and Josh Groban Who has the best male Voice of the 21st century sang the song just as well as Whitney even though she did a phenomenal job. Just because you are older doesn't mean you no more about music either.
My apologies, Kung. I should have qualified that the people under 30 have not yet discovered music from the forties and fifties. and you're right just because somebody is older doesn't mean they know more about music. however, in my case I was a singer in a band so I do know more about music, although I appreciate and honor that you were absolutely correct that age is no indicator of having more knowledge. I think we can see that in the way our older leaders how are running the country! And most of them are around my age. So you're absolutely right and I shouldn't have generalized. Thank you for calling me on that.. I'll be much more careful about that in the future.
She came, destroyed and left like it was nothing.
That's exactly why this version has never been surpassed, her spontaneity.
Destroyed them with grace, beauty, and ease.
So true!
@Mango RoxxWell If she did so u say.. You cant lip sync without actually singing the Damn song first. I mean come on who vocals was that a computers. Auto tune wasnt even out then. I Dont Care whether it was or wasnt. She slayed that mic and walk off like who's next if you think you can😂😂
Samuel Naesen never has been anyone to take her place! The day she set the bar high for singing the national anthem!
I never heard anyone sing the National Anthem like she did. No one. RIP Whitney, we miss you dearly.
The fact that this looks like the most effortless performance is in itself, jaw dropping. She’s incredible, rest easy Whitney 💕
It was pre-recorded, but that doesn't change anything you said. She always made it look effortless. Hers is still the best female voice I've ever heard.
It's effortless cause she's lipsyncing lol but this is early 90s Whitney, she had nothing to prove.
because she's not overdoing it and using it as a vocal showcase song
@@patronus1776 Well, they record a fully live version around a week before the superbowl. It's not like they spend months in the studio on it. They want it to be "live" but also not risk the person making a mistake
I completely agree
Little did those people know, they were witnessing history
I watched it on tv live... our family and friends where blown away....we all cheered
Whitnessing?
Hahaha
God bless America the beautiful!, PTL
🧢
She set the standard. No one has come close.
Demi just did :)
@@alexanthony3171 I agree Demi did amazing
Demi was lovely!!! But Whitney is up at a whole other level. No one will come close.
Lady Gaga did
Demi is not even close. Gaga's is very close to Whitney's though.
When she hit that, "*And the rockets red glare..." My SOUL gets goosebumps!
That’s really where it hit HOME. Idk why, but yes, same!
u got it
No lie it brings tears to my eyes
She always did that drawn out e like eeeEEEEEeeee with high notes like in the word free. I watch the Star Spangled Banner right before 4 AM on Pix 11 NY right before the morning news and there was a female named Sheridan Gates with long red/brown hair singing it this morning and she did that freeeEEEEEE like Whitney did. I live in eastern PA and we get Philly and NY stations on our cable TV. I had this on VHS tape that was recorded by my late grandfather, my late mom's father who passed in Dec 2000 at his home from colon cancer. His wife passed Jan 2006 from melanoma in the hospice unit at the hospital, they got a Panasonic VCR around 1990 and I now have it. Not sure where the tape is. My mom passed June 14, 2022 in the hospital because her lungs were bad.
I'm not even American and years later I still come to watch her sing this.
Whitney's voice was probably custom designed by God himself.
Absolutely, but Jennifer Hudson would be great also, I love her!
@C 1922 This song was written as it is for a reason. People want to sing along to it. Whitney didnt add anything over the top extra. She didnt make it into an r&b or make it into a vocal show off. She didnt try to change the melody and it was a very smart move. No wonder it is the only version which made the charts and is not only mostly viewed on youtube and is by far considered the best version of the anthem. Thats go show what people want! artists sing to the people and have to think about the people and not about how well they can do the runs and how can I change it up so I can show of my vocals and use the most watched tv broadcast to their advantage.
Amen!! 100%
It had to be, what other explanation is there? There has been no one like her since.
There is no question in my mind about it.
I’m British and this makes me glad you dumped our tea
BAHAHAHA MY BAGUETTE IS SHAKING
At least the fish got some tea!
no problem, and our seas do taste a bit better now
1:38. Look at Hawaii's fleeeeeg.
Give me liberty or give me dEaTh!!
Every performer sings to the lyrics, some sing the actual song, Ms. Houston told the story. Rest in Peace.
Couldn't have said it better! ❤
Very well put!
Whitney!! NO ONE has ever topped her singing of the Star Spangled Banner in my opinion, no one!!! Still watching in 2024. Rest in peace Whitney, you did us proud ♥
me too still watching!
I don't see anyone ever topping her rendition. Whitney Houston will never be topped by ANYONE ❤. The absolute best, and they recorded it and played it on the radio. That has never been done before, and I SERIOUSLY doubt it EVER will be. 🎉
Chris Stapleton…nuff said
@@jasonbradshaw4129what ever, lol 😂
I had to come here after that bullshit that Fergie called a National Anthem.
Yep me too.
Same 😩
TheNBAFreak Hahahahahaha me too, my ears needed to recover.
TheNBAFreak same I just watched it😭😭
Rofl, same!🤣😂
She looks like she’s not even trying. It’s just natural for her.
@Harper Thomas It still sounds so effortless, especially considering she recorded it in one take I believe
@Harper Thomas Not true I was in the game
So true. There is no one like Whitney! RIP.
There will never be another Whitney! RIP to a queen
@@liljay2326 no it’s true. They had her pre record it because the sound engineers were worried about it being performed live. She sang into a dead mic at the game. But what we heard was still done in one take and doesn’t take away from the fact it’s still the best version in the history of the super bowl.
The best singer ever. I can promise that in my lifetime I will never hear another singer execute this performance like Whitney did.
RIP
Whitney Houston
1963-2012
I think Rihanna also has WH's voice but can not find Rihanna performing this song
@@JIMMY-ck1oe rihanna cant sing😭
I am not from the USA, but the combination of her voice and the national anthem was truly impressive! What a voice!
@@AnnA-tu3ig not just that she thought of a different vocal arrangement
She looks like she's not even trying, like she could just roll out of bed and belt this out anytime. What an amazing talent she had.
It was prerecorded
@@user20mil38, it was prerecorded (of course), but she DID IT IN ONE TAKE.
It’s because they loved one of her practices so much, they recorded it and used that
Of course she's trying idiot
Adina Lesperance agreed
That wasn't a national anthem, that was a spiritual experience.
AMEN .....Hallelujah 😪😔
Amen to that! They should've tossed the phonebook on stage in her honor after that stirring rendition.
Testify.
Yes it was!!!!
Amen!!!
It’s 2024 and we’re still talking about Miss Whitney Houston’s superbowl performance..
Her voice is so organic and you could tell she was enjoying being there😊 .. it actually cracked the top 20.. never had it been done before and I suspect never will again🎶🇺🇸
As an Australian, listening to this makes me feel very proud to be an American lol
LMFAO❤
And me and I’m British! Lol!
the queen in her natural habitat.
a football stadium?
FunnyVideoMaker77 lmaooo😂😂
J Stephen get out™
J Stephen yea cool. that's not what i meant. the end
Lol J Stephen tried way too hard 😂
You knew she was about to throw down when she came out in a tracksuit!!!! Whitney Houston FOREVER!!!!
PREACH!!! lmao. I thought the same thing.
This was back when talent was highly regarded in the entertainment business. I'm gonna chill out on this or it'll turn into a rant.
peace.
Ok! Whitney sweating while singing Definitely means she's throwing down!
+adriane lind I'm rolling at 2:20 am from your tell it like it T-I-IS kinda truth.
+adriane lind She was the best.....
AND she had that hand on her hip..they already knew.
nobody will ever top this
Damn its good ❤🩶💙
And i just shaved my legs...now all my hair is back...she's incredible
@@teddybears4life240 just too good
This was a magnificent performance. I'm not saying Marvin Gaye's rendition was better, but I consider his and Whitney's performances to be equal
Nobody has ever done it as good as this. Nobody. No group... not a soul. This was truly a gift from God
Shes barely trying, its ridiculous how good she was
Because it was pre recorded
Timothy King my heart broke after hearing this.Still pretty good tbh!
I was thinking the same thing...seemed effortless....prolly practiced for the first time the morning of.
No kidding. She was amazing. Almost effortless for her.
@@bulletinarainbow629 In the documentary "Whitney" from 2018 they say she recorded it in one take.
She could sing the McDonald's menu and win an award. Rip Whitney
Lol! 100% 😄
🤣🤣🤣🤣 lol
😂😂😂😂
Yep
you're funny..🤣 lol
I was in a Sports Bar in SoCal to watch this game and I will never forget the effect her song had on the many many people who were there! We all cried like babies!
“Greatest Love of All was my 8th grade class Graduation song. We were all crying like babies halfway through the song!
No matter what, the most outstanding, beautiful performance of of this country's national anthem EVER. EVER, EVER , EVER! Sang with strength, dignity and pride in her country. How I wish to God that she and her dear, sweet daughter had lived on our earth beyond all that....but it wasn't to be....only GOD knows why........
Let’s admit, we did not see this in our recommendations. We searched for this 💯
I come to this video daily to remind myself of what a badass country we live in. 🔥
I did!
This came to my recommended.
After rewatching and searching for this fantastic performance about 10 times
The first time this is actually correct!!
I searched. Home of the brave!
Her singing made me feel patriotic for a country i don't belong to.
Edit: I think I know all the words now.
Honestly
Me too. Yo tambieeeennnnn
Weyes Noir Not even, you moron...
@@ArchKnight28 haha...we wish.
Weyes Noir Stop splitting hairs... she DID sing live, but along with a pre recording (from just a few days earlier) due to all the noise... AS IS DONE as a rule so the audience can hear above all the noise... Why does it even matter? Bottom line is, she belted out our anthem with patriotism and pride! There was no voice enhancement, no Mili Vanilli bullshit... Fucking troll... ftw.usatoday.com/2017/02/whitney-houston-national-anthem-video-super-bowl-51-2017
My grandmother played in the orchestra that accompanied her. She always spoke of Whitney in very high regard.
Watching this in 2020 and still can’t believe she did that.
Yep...always have to get back once inawhile 😊Nippy did that...
I can't believe I missed it but yeah I don't like football that's why I missed it
Eva Danielle me too
Right I’m over here super emotional
She didn’t, it was prerecorded
She showed up wearing a running suit and headband. She does not need any theatrics or dress up... She is a legend.
If you don't win Donald Trump, the coronavirus will spread throughout the United States.
@@user-cv1qn8yq4l 😂😂😂😂😂
@@user-cv1qn8yq4l too late
Yeah, her voice is all she needs..Amazing.
@proud American trump will lose. Bigly😂😂😂😂
The greatest singer of the world in human histoty!!
This was America now it’s unrecognizable. 2024.
She wasn't even trying. I'm not even American and yet I still had chills. What a queen
She was obviously trying though? And it paid off.
Your comment makes me sick. Delete your account immediately egg brain
@@Evan-rj7gn 😂😂
Shut up
I swear effortless
This should be the official version of the National Anthem.
YES!
yas!
in my head, it is
@Helden Hoierman the star-spangled banner is a flawed song as its hard for the average person to sing so its already hard to sing and unify
This reminded me of Fergie 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
My God, she hit that high note and then took it up an octave. Chills every time I hear it.
This shows of how she could work herself from that bottom note & go on to hit that high note with ease and confidence cause she said I am Queen Whitney ! I’m given you my best that God gave me. Thank you Rest peacefully!
Still the best in 2024
30 years have passed and this remains the gold standard.
More like double platinum!!
@@sharonglover9432 This bring a tear to my eye every time . I come here to re avow my belief in MY COUNTRY.
jesus 30 years? wow
The great arranger John Clayton 🐬
*diamond standard*
Came to cleanse my soul after hearing Fergie
lol,
😂🤣😅
😂😂😂😂✨🌟🌟✨
Lol me too
Me too 😂 Feeling so much better.
Nobody will ever beat her version of our anthem...NOBODYYYYY
Facts!!
Alpha and the Omega
Absolutely 💯
I completely agree!!!
I come back every year, after every super bowl performance ❤ No offense because there’s a lot of great talent in the world, but Whitney is forever! Happy Super Bowl 58! 2024!
Gosh no one can come close…
Sings it in a track suit, no glitz and no glamour. Just a voice. Remains the ‘go to’ version after 30 years. What a legacy
So true, simple but powerful ❤
She was actually supposed to wear a grown to match the orchestra, however she switched at the last minute when she realized how cold it was. Her bestfriend Robyn tells this story
I was thinking the same thing --- Could not look more beautiful though - Amazing --gone too soon
Amen!
I loved it when they said Lady Gaga did it better. Lol
To this date: THE BEST AMERICAN NATIONAL ANTHEM EVER SUNG.
and written. the harmonic decisions tell a powerful story.
Mako 48 totally
@Mako, Facts 💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Mako 48 hands down
Jagga someone watched an Adam Neely video haha
Quenn Whitney died years ago and her voice is traveling through eternity and giving me goosebumps.
I cried in 1991 watching the Super Bowl , and now im 61 i still cry listening to her singing today ! I felt in my heart how this was special for Americans to watch. She felt love in the Stadium. Definitely.
We miss her! ❤
John ❤
“Greatest Love of All” was my 8th grade graduation song. Whole class was in tears halfway through the song! R.I.P. Whitney ❤️🙏
There’s a reason why everyone comes back to this one
It's amazing! I'm not even from the US. Her singing is phenomenal, no-one can top this in my opinion!
ExACTly.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I literally watch this at least a few times a year for forever now lol
i can’t i just can’t she is the best out of anyone who ever has sung it and the band was insane
No one will ever top this. It’s literally not possible. There were no mistakes. Not one.
Michelle Sutton And she just sung it she didn’t do anything extra, she just sung the song and knocked it out of the park and every artist since has been looking for that ball to knock it out of the park with no luck.
FLAWLESS- Then the softness in the second verse leading to the amazing build up... the control is FLAWLESS... Demi RUSHED IT- It was too fast...
Mariah Carey is way better you obviously haven't watched it yet
Gold Coast Videography nah. I said what I said. Nobody has topped Whitney and probably nobody will.
Tamera Coates Exactlyyy! And I’m sure Demi’s was rushed because of the arrangement of the music. She didn’t really have a choice in how fast it was. Whitney’s music was slower. Demi did amazing in my opinion though.
No matter what year it is, I will always say no one did it better than Whitney.
Stapleton's was better
Stapleton’s version was dull
@@trondboi2034nah not even close. Whitney’s version is the best one due to the fact that her recorded track hit #6 in Billboard top 100 back in 2000s. The only version that reached into top 10. There was no other version that reached top 10 like Whitney’s. Her version was also made so much money that she donated that to terrorist attack. So if you tell me, Stapleton’s version is only 2nd best after hers. The iconic and successful of Whitney’s version beat any other version. Every voice coaches and music instructors would tell you how high she set the bar with this one. There is a reason why she is known as “the voice” not Christ Stapleton lol 😂
@@haileyng8978 i dont care. I have my own opinion and you have yours
So glad I was alive to witness it!
Whitney and her voice are Beyond perfect! I've loved her and her music since I was a little girl. WHITNEY IS A LEGEND!
who else isn't even american but has watched this multiple times
Me
Sup
I'm not American, but I love the American patriotism and also just love Whitney, this is the best rendition, I believe that you can find of the National Anthem, I am actually a Scot living in Canada, but my son is a U.S. citizen and I have 2 granddaughters born and raised in Pennsylvania, and I also love America
@@moiraodonnell4127 that's a beautiful sentiment.
Nope I am
The best thing about this performance is that it seems to effortless. She's not trying too hard, she's just doing her thing!
That may also be because it was lip synced, but it still does feel very heartfelt.
@@shamsaliriaz5264 th-cam.com/video/IdcKLuRjIX0/w-d-xo.html Doesn't need to be lip synced and she still sounds the same.. Arguably even better when sung live in this link.
Heida she was so relaxed and free. Effortless. I miss her so much 😢😭😩
Exactly my thoughts, performed effortlessly.
FACTS!
It still makes me cry. So powerful, and so beautiful. She was truly a legend
Our National Anthem should be discontinued by anyone else forever. Just play this every single year. A true artist/singer with love and conviction for her country. The G.O.A.T., Whitney Houston. God bless America! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I agree
I totally agree. Nobody can embody the true spirit of patriotism that her voice encapsulated.
Agreed.
No one can ever sing the American anthem like Whitney.
Gaga came close
Jennifer Hudson came closer
Actually Jack Black wasn't to bad either
I broke the 99 likes 😏 and true Whitney is everything
Us anthem: plays
Kim Jong un: why do i hear Boss music?!
She made the American Anthem sound like a hit record.
All she did was just sing.
WOW.
She did. It was released as a single afterwards and was a top 20 hit on billboards..
Yep but it wasn’t live. It was pre-recorded. Her producer confirmed it in the movie that was released about her in 2017 or 2018.
She didn’t just sing she “sang” lol
@@azizahunt1560 Ok and? She still sung it.
Porsha Conoye ok and it wasn’t live but was “sold” to be. Did I make myself clear this time or do you still have questions?
Every year I see the superbowl and hear the national anthem I always seem to come back to this one !!!
🙏❤️
Same! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🙏🏻
Nobody will ever top Ms. Whitney Elizabeth Houston. This version will live on forever. RIP, Nippy. The world misses you. 😢

But I am Danish.

she should've gotten a Grammy for this performance
sadly it was already recorded.
You have more patriotism for our country and you live in Hong Kong! It sucks that some of our own people don’t love this country and freedom as much as you
The Grammy was Beneath this Woman...
Periodt
ZEV exactly
A beautiful anthem and a stunning performance from Whitney Houston.
I grew up in the 80's and 90's . Whitney Houston was just there with us, among with the best musisicans of those decades.
clealry
She didn't just sing it, she felt it AND owned it. Best EVER.
@K Maxx why do you keep commenting that bro go outside
juice lol right
@K Maxx
After looking your comments in these videos I just realized that you are trolling. Get a life.
@K Maxx Bitch whitney got the voice... Sit down somewhere 🤡

Best female singer ever lived. ❤
The very best rendition of all time, it’s all Whitney , no auto tune , no acting, no faking, just a singer of incomparable talent, spine tingling each Tim I hear it, Whitney was lost far too young

Beautiful story! I bet! I'm weeping at my home in MN in 2024! And to add how incredibly happy and "in her Element" she looks here ... She knew she was doing exactly what she was born to do!
America had these incredible talents as whitney or michael jackson. Its so weird how media tried to destroy their own national treasures
And then when they died,the media claimed they loved them. It's happening to every legend,the most recent being Mariah Carey. It should honestly stop

Yeah, Whitney's version is the standard
A close second would be Jennifer Hudson which was right after her losing her family members.
+Jay Scribe No doubt
+Jay Scribe Agreed, lip-sync has become standard
Lady Gaga knocked it right out of the park tonight
+groundsmanbri Hater. even if whitney prerecorded her voice it's still her voice. and she was amazing.
Gives me chills every time. She sang that song like she wrote it herself.
Wonderful description
Chills all over

The absolute best rendition of the Star Spangled Banner!! Whitney had the most incredible voice.
Agreed 💯💯💯
Absolutely 💯 💯 💯
I come back every Superbowl just to hear Whitney do it again!!! RIP Whitney!!! NO one has done it better!!!!
This is basically the most flawless thing I've ever heard.
It was lip synced
Nice job withely Houston🙀🙀

Still the best ever rendition of the anthem..Rest in peace Ms Houston.
She came with a bandana on and was wearing a sweatsuit and still gave the anthem of a lifetime. Whitney, u r a true talent.
Robyn suggested so because Whitney said she would get freeze out in the black suit that she originally planed to wear.
Preeachh
It was also the early 90’s therefore 80s style clothing was still fashionable
What a comment!! Yes, true, true!!!
John G was your point that her clothes would some how inhibit her singing capability 😂because I’m pretty sure she would’ve came and shut it down regardless of what she was wearing
Yep nobody will EVER top this. She was and is an absolute American treasure. The VOICE.
Exactly, it said a few have topped her perfomance... who? Don't worry, I'll wait. lol
James Bonner u here after the all star game too?
Naw! Marvin Gaye's version tops this one! 🤷🏾♀️
heather buol somebody will eventually, but like I said, eventually. It’ll probably take a while
You’re right but my ears also like Carrie Underwood and Kate Hudson. I’d wonder how celene dion would do if she was American
No one has ever sang this song with more feeling and admiration than the Late Great Whitney Houston.
Best ever sang Star Spangled Banner!!! EVER!!! She sung from her soul. My opinion.
I agree ! Chills on chills when I hear her!
Totally agree. I get in tears all the time she "sings" the National Anthem.
She didn’t look the least bit nervous and was effortlessly hitting every note. Incredible.
She was actually lip-syncing. However, the recording her singing, and it is certainly a beautiful rendition :)
@@callumschultz3 That crushed so many wonderful things for me but you are totally correct. I’ll just pretend that I didn’t hear that😄

Wow, never knew that! On the other hand, I'm sure she would have sung it this way live. She was a terrific singer and performer.
How does a human being even sound like that. Incredible.

I think about that shit quite often
Well. It comes from a combination of genetics and years of dedicated practice and training.

Only she can sing this song and I'll listen to it in 2024
