      I agree. I am a spiritual person and I believe that nothing is by accident and that these souls (Whitney, Mariah, Celine and the like) came here with their chosen (God-given) talent to change the world/make the world a better place. This was their mission in the spiritual realm and they actualized themselves, giving joy to billions around the world.

      Part of it. But a lot of it was also learned.
      Seriously, though--singing is the only art and discipline I know whose practitioners are very often described to simply "have it or not," as if it wasn't a skill that can be learned through technical guidance and enhanced through influences and life experiences. Tell that to gymnasts or dancers, and they'll laugh at you.

      Beverly Waits You are right, a person must have the building materials for a mansion before it can be built. If Whitney's mother hadn't taught her how to develop and harness that raw power it would have been wasted and not used properly and would NOT have been as soul piercing as Miss Whitney Houston was and still IS! The teaching and development IS needed. "Do yo thang Mr. Henny!" You are on course Mr. Henny but you already know that Sir! 😉

    This was one of my favourite performances from her. To learn from your insight that she was controlling the band rather than the conductor makes it that little bit more awe inspiring. I’ve often watched & thought they must have rehearsed this hundreds of times to anticipate what she was about to do next. When really she was listening to the audience & taking it at her own free will, in order to give them exactly what they wanted & the band came along for the ride. I’m thrilled that a professional coach like yourself displayed some respect & decorum by choosing a performance from when she was at the top of her game rather than one where you could tear her vocals apart. We all know the ending by now & true fans & inspiring singers aren’t interested to see that again. When I think of Whitney I always think she was loved by millions yet she was one of the most lost & lonely individuals on the planet. That’s the showbiz world, plenty of yes men securing their 25% but no one of real substance. If you’re thinking of entering this world keep your wits about you & make the decisions that feel right in your gut.

    Whitney was simply one of the greatest pop singers of all time and her phrasing was what made her special. My first job out of school was as a radio announcer way back in the 80s. I did midnight to dawn on a station that no one listened to. The very first song I ever introduced was Whitneys I will always love you. I was about 18 years old, alone in a studio, in the middle of the night, for the very first time and nervous as hell. I'd never heard the song before but I introduced it and played her loud in my headphones. I have been a fan ever since!
