I really wish Arista records would compile all her live performances including rehearsals and remaster them. Nobody sings like this anymore. TRUE talent. Her voice was a gift from God.
@@deronreed2945 that's ridiculous. Clive Davis did not work her to death. Whitney died from complications from a lifetime of substance abuse starting in her teens. Drug use, sadly, that likely came about to cope with the sexual abuse she and her brothers endured at the hands of a cousin.
I’m watching this 11/22 and before I literally said “hands in pocket/flat footed/and belted” at a level no other human will ever know or reach…close but never and I mean NEVER
yea i said the same thing.. hands in her pockets, standing in 1 spot, hitting notes, singing and sounding like what you'd imagine only angels sound like. that's insane
You know whoever witnessed this was like “Rehearsal???” This is like a FULL SHOW and MOMENT that is truly once in a lifetime time. And damn lucky if more. WE were truly blessed and lucky to have witnessed her talent. And I thank GOD for it!
Dang, she just stands there and barely moves and it comes out so good. She had the best lungs and a crystal clear tone. She was better than each and every one of her counterparts. #anditsstillallgood
@Mattie Anti with respect, Witney was never underrated. She was celebrated and respected for it all when she was here. It's only sad that this was still expected of her later on,...
She is all in it. The band is all in it. Backup singers all in it. Its infectious. They are performing like it's being recorded. This is incredible and greatness happening. No one like the voice Whitney Houston. RIP Nippy. There will never be another. So glad I was able to see her concert live as a pre- teen, her voice and presence was Angelic. Best word I can describe what I saw. ❤🙏
This is what you call a once in a lifetime talent. I don’t think that I will EVER see another singer with this talent, technique, skill, vocal prowess or gift in during my whole existence
Any Singer who watches this must feel the shade whitney is throwing by singing with one hand in her pocket and only putting a a little effort in and still outsinging them 😭 #RIPGOAT
they were right. her voice was a national treasure. my goodness. when i get to Heaven and meet my Maker...i want to hear this voice...THE VOICE...welcoming me.
3:19 makes me wanna just pass out!!! I mean have u ever heard of something so beautiful?? that part alone keeps me coming back to this clip at least once a week! Awesome singer!
+dasingaman1 yes! yessss!!! if you haven't seen the live performance from Arsenio go see it too, she pretty much did the same riff into head notes there in that performance, just stunning that control
Saying it’s effortless doesn’t only create a picture of a fake reality but takes away from her hard work. Singing is half technique, half emotion and passion. Both something that needs a lot of strength. I can promise you she worked hard, on learning and practicing techniques & for her muscles and body to support her vocals and she worked just as hard on her emotional strength. I simply adore her
Totally agree with you. We all have talents, however you have to work hard to perfect it. Her momma did a great job in training her and Whitney 's desire to master her craft made her the voice.
Whitney didn’t really work out much, aside from swimming. I believe had she focused more on working out and cut the smoking she would’ve sounded 10 times better. Don’t get me wrong she sounds super super amazing here. However, by this point her personal lifestyle was starting to affect her around this era. It was the beginning. By the time she became pregnant her voice would deepen a little.
3:08 That part gives me goosebumps everytime. For me, it isn’t about the technique proficiency or the arsenal of notes used; it is how she creatively can alter a melody spontaneously like she did there. She always gave something new within the same song. That “but heeeeeee” in headvoice and then E5-C#5 “goooo-ooott” is so beautiful.
Well, first of all she's stunningly gorgeous. Then she starts singing with one hand on the mic and the other hand in her pocket and melts my entire soul.
Slender Man we’re talking about her frame. You have been putting a lot of hate comments, why are you even on this video? You clearly don’t like Whitney
That part between 3:07-3:15 doesn't even make any sense! How she belted that note, mic to her legs and you could still hear parts of it, and then to come back with a crisp and clear head tone mere seconds later where most singers would've been hoarse from the belt? I can't even with Ms. Houston.
This is a rehearsel...??? Golgotha enough without it. This in itself could have been a stage performance. A God given talent....gone too soon....RIP dear Whitney. God gave you to the world then took you back from the cruelties of it.
I second this this what I believed and I’d you listen to her latest gospel she asked God to take her away from the battle, and she is looking him after all her strength is gone , is a sad way how she left but we have a serious God you know when you ask him for something, when you can’t take this cruel world no more .
+kayteeelle Yes!!! I remember as a little boy watching the actual performance when it originally aired on SNL. She KILLED it! I found it once years ago and haven't been able to find it again to download/save now that I'm older and tech savvy. Smh...
I just love LOVE watching her and listening to her. She was just so very cool. This rehearsal of this song may actually be my favorite rendition of it> If I sang like her, I would never not be singing. It must have been a lot of fun owning that instrument.
I listened to thousands of great singers. Some ranging from good to amazing but Whitney was the god of voice. I never would thought a voice like this type of voice existed
I swear,to me just no one compares to Whitney.How she played her voice like an instrument. Amazing timing, and just mmmm that voice,who else can just stand, not dance and capture you like that?? She's mesmerising, beautiful, I love Whitney.
Eu já vi esse video 1000x e as 1000x eu me emocionei, que mulher linda, de um sorriso mais lindo e uma voz descomunal que transcende o mundo!!! EU TE AMO WHITNEY HOUSTON! I've seen this video 1000 times and every 1000 times I was moved, what a beautiful woman, with the most beautiful smile and an extraordinary voice that transcends the world!!! I LOVE YOU WHITNEY HOUSTON!
If every single rehearsal was this pure I do not even question why her voice did what it did damn to give this much every time sure wears the voice out. You RIP GOAT #thevoice
I really wish Arista records would compile all her live performances including rehearsals and remaster them. Nobody sings like this anymore. TRUE talent. Her voice was a gift from God.
🗣 POP YOUR 💩 ! I CONCUR ✊🏽
Clive worked her to damn death!!! they sure damn have all the footage to do that......

@@gabelogan5877 I think it’s the abuse and her being attracted to the same sex that didn’t help with the use of drugs
@@djoldsoulkid3407 jesus. It's 2022. Keep your homophobia to yourself. Blocked and muted.
OMG!!! What a powerful voice! she really is the best singer of all time! who's there in 2024?
one hand in pocket slaying
Mr. Miscellaneous SLAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Like DARKSEID😇😍🦁🎶
🔥🔥🔥
Listen!!!! Slaying to the fullest
She is superhuman! Hands in her pockets, chilling and hitting notes 99% of singers can only dream of!
PREACHHHHH
So perfectly put
I’m watching this 11/22 and before I literally said “hands in pocket/flat footed/and belted” at a level no other human will ever know or reach…close but never and I mean NEVER
yea i said the same thing.. hands in her pockets, standing in 1 spot, hitting notes, singing and sounding like what you'd imagine only angels sound like. that's insane
They still struggling to hit notes - well that’s what I heard on the news😂
Yes 🙌🏾 all I can do is dream 💭 of hitting these notes 🎶
She’s doing in rehearsal what 90% of singers today couldn’t do if they gave it their all.
Facts on facts on facts!
In fact the only singer I know that actually didn't need to rehearse. It was all natural ❤❤
You know whoever witnessed this was like “Rehearsal???” This is like a FULL SHOW and MOMENT that is truly once in a lifetime time. And damn lucky if more. WE were truly blessed and lucky to have witnessed her talent. And I thank GOD for it!
Dang, she just stands there and barely moves and it comes out so good. She had the best lungs and a crystal clear tone. She was better than each and every one of her counterparts. #anditsstillallgood

And she could do so many things with her voice. It just made me cry
👍
@Mattie Anti with respect, Witney was never underrated. She was celebrated and respected for it all when she was here. It's only sad that this was still expected of her later on,...
@Mattie Anti agree with you Mattie.
Did she even need to rehearse!! She was the Vocal Blueprint for years and years to come!!
the rehearsal is for the crew
boopdeedoop98 hahah good one
The band need to have a rehearsal. 😁
Yesss! Well said
mary joanne
Not Whitney
Its puzzling how clear and beautiful she sounds in these low quality videos, I can only imagine how she sounds live.
Im afraid our world wouldnt have one like her.
What a comment!!! 👍👌😀
And during a _rehearsal_ at that... 😌
The acoustics are great!
She playin wit the notes lol unscripted.....pure talent
Ok
Vocal stylist.
No backing track. No ear pieces. No auto tune filtered through her live vocals. PURE RAW TALENT!
Funny thing is she’s not even “trying “ hard to sing.. She was just that amazing!!
Nobody currently living on this planet can convey feeling into a song like this! The greatest live singer that has yet to exist.
Perfectly said!
Agreed 💯😍👏😍👏😍👏😍
Yesssss
JOHN 3:1-21.
REVELATIONS 2O:11-15.

THANK YOU 😇
This song is an absolute Gem. The lyrics and vocals backed with excellent musicians and singers is out of this world. Wicked arrangement
This lady is literally standing flat foot with her hand in pocket KILLIN this song during "rehearsal" !!!!! 🔥🔥🔥# TRUETALENT
This is called Effortless Singing.
She is all in it. The band is all in it. Backup singers all in it. Its infectious. They are performing like it's being recorded. This is incredible and greatness happening. No one like the voice Whitney Houston. RIP Nippy. There will never be another. So glad I was able to see her concert live as a pre- teen, her voice and presence was Angelic.

YASS! And it’s better than the studio version!
Rehearsal??? My goodness, 😀
Sure, it is
This is what you call a once in a lifetime talent. I don’t think that I will EVER see another singer with this talent, technique, skill, vocal prowess or gift in during my whole existence
Accurate. I don't believe we ever will.

they were right. her voice was a national treasure. my goodness. when i get to Heaven and meet my Maker...i want to hear this voice...THE VOICE...welcoming me.
I would die again just for a repeat if that what’s waiting for me.....she truly love to sing....I’m glad it’s recorded for many to witnessed.
The hand in her pocket lets me know she could sing like this in the shower. RIP Whitney Houston
Lol
Whitney could sing the phone book and make it sound good lol
Lmao
Hech, sing like that in her sleep hehe ;)
I love..she is tomboy
How does such a voice reside in a human ?
She just blows me away
Chills
3:19 makes me wanna just pass out!!! I mean have u ever heard of something so beautiful?? that part alone keeps me coming back to this clip at least once a week! Awesome singer!

Me tooooooo 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
this part is pure heaven!!!! makes me just so happy every time I hear it!
Stunning
How is it earthly possible to sing AND look like that? Simultaneously

Those background singers were in the presence of such greatness. Whitney at her prime.
Simply standing, while perfection pours effortlessly from her gifted lungs! You’re missed my dear
Love your comment
if i could "rehearse" like this...wow. it is live and she sings effortlessly. God bless the best female voice ever.
Whitney Houston most famous voice of all time
Absolutely beautiful. Everyone involved was enjoying this gig! ❤❤❤
3:08

She's incredibly amazing at even rehearsal………
If she blew you away for rehearsal, imagine what she can do in the final performance... that's the caliber of this iconic, legendary lady. 💜💜💜💜
Best live vocals ever on this planet.
Why does this exist? She didn't need to rehearse! She just opened her mouth, and it came out perfectly! I miss her so much!
For the sound team and the band.
For the backing vocalists, the band, and the sound !
The G.O.A.T.!
What does the G O A T mean I keep seein this!..Please explain!
Darlene Comp greatest of all time
@@oscarsantos2240 Ooooh ok thank u!😀
Well, first of all she's stunningly gorgeous. Then she starts singing with one hand on the mic and the other hand in her pocket and melts my entire soul.
Such a pure, effortless, incredible voice. Miss her.
That big voice coming out of such a tiny body. I miss her so much. R.I.P. Nippy.💚
not really. she was 5'8 1/2, which is quite big for a woman
Slender Man her frame was small , she was tiny size wise not height wise
Slender Man we’re talking about her frame. You have been putting a lot of hate comments, why are you even on this video? You clearly don’t like Whitney
@@slenderman3510 whitney is very slim woman.
SHE said she was 5’7
not even tryin! damn shame! miss you Whitney!
😊

lol
***** That's why I said most. A lot don't hone maybe to the level that they should to have longevity.
This year his voice begins to deteriorate so he was no longer able to make high notes
Breno Williams. Yah. 1991 was whitney's last year's Effortless singing her songs.
J Junior Did Whitney always sing live? Her voice is wonderful and I can not believe she sings like that. Please tell me Was her voice real?
Her voice could be anything she wanted it to be. Loud as a lion and as delicate as a butterfly. She had a gift
A vocal beast and a force of nature. That's what she is for me.... even in later years, no ONE can hold a candle for her. 💪💪💪💖💗💜
She's crystal, flawlessly, adorable, incomparable. She's truly an artist
EXCELLENT performance!
Indeed!
+Rafa Medina Its not a performance..it was sound the sound check. She was and still is in a league of her own
lol sublime
Your comment is first on every mariah amd whitney video.. I think you are a huge lamb and huge nippian at the same time like me😂😂😂😂
And this was the freaking rehearsal
This is a rehearsel...??? Golgotha enough without it. This in itself could have been a stage performance. A God given talent....gone too soon....RIP dear Whitney. God gave you to the world then took you back from the cruelties of it.

This is just rehearsals and Whitney still slayed 😍 damn WHITNEY IS AND still IS thee VOICE
her voice in its prime! no voice can compare to it! amazing
This whitney on saturday night with rollers and a face mask SLAYING
Standing still with one hand in her pocket!
Sissy Goins Ya know!
I love the way she's enjoying and playing the song. ❤
All these years and this version brought tears to my eyes. Phenomenal
Chiiiiiiiile this is just a rehearsal🤯🤯🤯... Amazing!!!
Thee greatest female singer ever!
You never know what you have till it gone😢 Rest Easy Songbird
There's a few videos around of Whitney singing gospel music as a visitor to different churches. Those are worth watching.
She slated it in rehearsal !!! I miss her so much. Best singer ever.
This is what gods gift truly is 😢❤
Whitney is the voice.❤🌹
Best , Best , Best !!!!! It gives production!!
Its beautifully painful to watch this. We lost a gem.. we celebrate your life whitney.. what a legacy...
😢
Perfect pitch.. the standard for all the aspiring singers.. Incomparable and will never be matched.. Whitney is forever
Whitney voice was flawless and effortless.
The best ballad I like from her
How the 'F' did such power, strength & energy come out of that tiny, little person ??
Wow, this is just a rehersal up, I'd be glad if any of today's artists could produce a performance like this EVER.
Who touching Whitney on the vocals in 2019? No damn body. Just beautiful.
What I would give to see a tape full of Whitney Houston rehearsals! She sounded unspeakably amazing AND she was having so much fun!
I LOVE WHE SHE THROWS HET LEG UP YES BABE
I know the leg is when you know she bout to hit a crazy note
kleo
She was insanely beautiful, the way I choose to remember her
In her heyday
Just BEAUTIFUL!! The tone and control was so crazy!! THE GREATEST!!❤️❤️
Why are the actual (not just the rehearsals) performances so hard to find? Not just on youtube, they're hard to find on the internet period.
+kayteeelle Yes!!! I remember as a little boy watching the actual performance when it originally aired on SNL. She KILLED it! I found it once years ago and haven't been able to find it again to download/save now that I'm older and tech savvy. Smh...
kayteeelle arista records removing them
Lawd a mercy! I am getting my life this morning!! WHITNEY💫💫✨
I just love LOVE watching her and listening to her. She was just so very cool. This rehearsal of this song may actually be my favorite rendition of it> If I sang like her, I would never not be singing. It must have been a lot of fun owning that instrument.
There is quite literally NO voice that even compares.
Why 3 people have disliked this, I will never know. Pure. Talent.
I'm buffled, honestly.
They don't have ears.
@@salutoalduce4550 Mariah fans
Jealousy! And it ok! Someone has to fulfill that role.
Whitney, as long as there are people on Earth, you will not be forgotten.
Standing casually, hand in pocket, singing to the heavens!!! Effortless 🙏🎶🎶🎶💖
She sang the devil out that one - wow
This song always makes me cry it’s so beautiful & soulful
Any version of her singing a song makes me cry this is I think her most beautiful and soulful song even more touching than the bodyguard theme
3:17 insane riff
That is The Voice! And it was rehearsal. She had a name tag on her blazer because she was a guest to SNL! I love it. And I will always love Whitney!
I listened to thousands of great singers. Some ranging from good to amazing but Whitney was the god of voice. I never would thought a voice like this type of voice existed
I like when she pops her tongue at 0:10 right before she starts to sing. You can barely hear it unless you turn the volume down a bit. 😅😂
Youre observant
Just a rehearsal. Amazing. I miss her so very much😥
if you didn't grow up in the eighties and nineties you will not understand what it means to sing like this
Incomparable!!! Just AMAZINGGGG!!!
Wow...!!...the tone...!!
Gift from God...
R.I.P. Lady✨✨✨✨
This woman always leaves me speechless!! But that 3:18 through the end is suuuuuch a beautiful groove!!!!
She was a true legend. 2:20 Dionne Warwick is that you ? 😂
I swear,to me just no one compares to Whitney.How she played her voice like an instrument. Amazing timing, and just mmmm that voice,who else can just stand, not dance and capture you like that?? She's mesmerising, beautiful, I love Whitney.
Stunning, impressive, perfect rehearsal.
thank God we have footage likethis.......genius......
Indeed. She’s a treasure!

slaying that mic and then slinks away bopping to her own rhythm hehehe
Even rehearsal is worth a million
God gifted voice and talent
How come it comes out so powerful with such low effort? 😢 #goat
Just from the video, I see it so clearly that she was born to sing.
Effortlessly striking.
If every single rehearsal was this pure I do not even question why her voice did what it did damn to give this much every time sure wears the voice out.
You RIP GOAT #thevoice
When she sings the atmosphere comes alive and everything and everybody just stare in awe of her awsome voice. Powerful and in control
AWWW MAN. SHE WAS/IS THE BEST! JUST A LIL LIGHT LIGHT SOUND CHECK AND SHE KILLED
+LEX GRAHAM Crazy huh
YUP. A LOT OF GOOD SINGERS. BUT SHE WAS THE GREATEST
