MUSIC: Richard Rodgers / LYRICS: Oscar Hammerstein II
Impossible! For a plain yellow pumpkin
To become a golden carriage
Impossible! For a plain country bumpkin
And a prince to join in marriage
And four white mice will never be four white horses
Such folderol and fiddle-dee-dee of course is
Impossible!
But the world is full of zanies and fools
Who don't believe in sensible rules
And won't believe what sensible people say
And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes
Keep building up impossible hopes
Impossible things are happening every day
Impossible!....
It's possible! For a plain yellow pumpkin
To become a golden carriage
It's possible! For a plain country bumpkin
And a prince to join in marriage
And four white mice are easily turned to horses
Such folderol and fiddle-dee-dee of course is
Quite possible! It's possible!
For the world is full of zanies and fools
Who don't believe in sensible rules
And won't believe what sensible people say
And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes
Keep building up impossible hopes
Impossible things are happening every day
It's possible!....
****************************************************************
Cinderella (Brandy) and her Fairy Godmother (Whitney Houston) sing "Impossible/ It's Possible," before and after Cinderella's magical transformation, in Disney's 1997 remake of "Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella" (previously produced for TV in 1957 (starring Julie Andrews) and 1965 (starring Lesley Ann Warren)). I have edited out the dialogue in the middle so that the complete song can be heard without interruption. - เพลง
One of the most beautiful things about this movie was the imagery of a Black woman telling another Black woman that "it's possible". You'll never understand how powerful that is for a people that went through what Black people went through (and still to this day). The Cinderella story is inspiring in of it self. But I can image Whitney herself telling a young Brandy, yes it's a real thing! Us Black women can live our dreams too. And that they did! They were forces in their careers! They really made it!
so truuue
🙏🏽🙏🏽👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This film needs more credit. I love it and have done from I was wee .Hands down The best Cinderella story iv ever seen ♥️
One of the things I liked is that a white man and a black woman had an Asian son
This comment deserves more love, I straight teared up
Disney still hasn’t topped this with all of their live action adaptations.
this movie is iconic in very way Possible. Disney will never live be every able this movie and Annie with Kathy Bates. these 2 movie both iconic
I am who I am today because of this movie made it through loss of my mother foster care college and just life obstacles from believing in the impossible....love this movie
@@ryzahara06 I'm sorry for your loss
They never will
@@rockybee1452 This version is a Disney film which is a remake of Rogers and Hammerstein's television movie musical
This song is super inspiring. Seeing a black woman tell another black woman that all things are possible. So beautiful.
Skin color doesn't matter what someone tells someone. We're all human and we all bleed red. We shouldn't describe anyone as their skin color unless we're filing a police report or something. We're all the same on the inside. It's no different than 2 different skin colors one telling the opposite color things are possible.
@@maliikprior5243 Malik, when a black person gives admiration and highlights black excellence, don’t be so quick to SHOOT off your know-it-all mouth and lecture US about race. We’re STILL (even in this day and age) an oppressed race, so when we get a chance to point out the excellence of black accomplishments, WE WILL DO IT.
Let us have it, please and thank you. 🙄
@@maliikprior5243 It _shouldn't_ matter, but in this fucked up world, it sadly does. I'd love to keep those rose-colored glasses on like you have, but in order to effect long-term change, we have to face reality. And the reality is that not everyone sees all people as equal.
@@asherikamichaela8425 Yeah in reality some people are evil and idiots but for the people who have common sense they know it doesn't matter at all what your skin color is.
@@maliikprior5243 I understand where you're coming from, truly. And it really doesn't matter to me either (you could be blue with purple polka-dots for all I care- appearances are ephemeral, I'm all about personality), but we can't ignore that it still holds a level of significance in this world. And until such time that it doesn't, we have to keep that in mind while we fight for a better future.
Still the best version of Cinderella!
Definitely
Agreed😊
THIS was the Cinderella I grew up on. And will always be the best Cinderella
👍👏
+mightybfool C ever after
+mightybfool C Me too, still love this film also this film was truly colour blind, it had black, white and asian actors, it didnt matter. Wish films were like this now.
+mightybfool C same even though i was born in 1997 i always liked this cinderella the best
This and the 1950 Disney animated adaptation.
Whitney just hits all those notes perfectly. She truly has a gift.
Had
+Matt Cocco you're right - unfortunately..((
Yes she stole this movie with every note she sang.Rip Whitney I miss your voice.
she was sanging
+Blackmage456
hy...
Yo this was ahead of its time yall. A black female lead with a diverse cast. Absolutely beautiful.
How about Halle Bailey's Ariel?
@alalahoward1299 yea that's awesome too, it's exciting
Whitney was PERFECT as the fairy-god mother. Whitney's classy, realness, movement with her body and hands, especially in her scenes with that beautiful golden voice made her PERFECT for this role! She made the right decision asking Brandy to play cinderella.
You are right and Brandy will be portraying Whitney Houston on her new movie.
@@victorbeaubriant4758 no...that's not Brandy portraying Whitney. I do not know the actress but it is not Brandy
@@perryIII ohh shit your right it’s not my mistake this actress looks like Brandy tho. But I did my researching…
@@victorbeaubriant4758 it's all good, are you going to see the movie when it comes out? I definitely will.
@@perryIII Im hopefully hoping to go to the movies 🍿 for the first time till 2018. Maybe I’m gonna get to see the movie.
They don’t give Brandy enough credit for the vocals, This is the first time we heard Brandy sing out with no runs and it was sooooo sweet, angelic and just beautiful...
Rit
Brandy always sung without runs.
Check her live performances
When I watched this as a kid I thought Brandy sounded weak compared to Whitney’s powerful voice but now older I appreciate her tone and how good their voices sound together on this duet.
Facts 💯
this tears me up ,because Brandy probably thought that she would never work with her idol ,Whitney. When Brandy was a kid ,that was impossible to her...
+withflyingcolors7 Wow that's cool! No wonder this song was so fitting for the two :)
" it's possible !"
Ummmmmm 🤔
Whitney Houston Is Her GODMOTHER!
Damn made me tear up..
Torian Tayeasz Whitney was her idol. Take a look back in time
As a half black, asian and white woman this movie was SO moving to me.
Nobody cares what you are
2023 and I still listen to the songs from this soundtrack. People don't understand how important representation is. For me, a little black girl from the projects, this was my first representation of a black "princess " that I saw as a child. To this day this song fills me with pride and happiness ❤
Here we go 🙄
Where were your parents? THEY should have been your representation and filled you with pride. Not some random black people on TV who you don't even know. Sad that most black people don't seem to have parents who inspire them and they look towards random black celebrities to get a sense of pride and fulfillment because your comment is like many I've read. If you feel like you need to have random black people on TV just to feel secure with yourself then your parents failed you.
This one's representation done right.
Brandy said later that she was looking at Whitney like that for real, she could not believe she was standing before Whitney Houston
Hahah I probably wouldn't believe it either lol
I'd probably have the same look on my face if I was standing next to Whitney Houston also.
@@danielmitchell5184 for real😲😲😲
Lol... I can only imagine how she was feeling!
I think i would lose my breath yet alone being right beside her but just being in any room or area she’s in would had killed me! 😍
The strangest things we think about because I’ve always wondered what Whitney smelled like? Lol.. Had to be sweet!!!!L
And candy like! Just had to be!❤️
I’d be the same way!!
Brandy walked so Hallie could swim
Shylea Hudson SAY THAT. 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
this is now my automatic response to anyone complaining about the new little mermaid, tysm
Hell no ghetto mermaid
why you mad white tears
someone make this the top comment so everyone can see it
This is the only live action Cinderella as far as I'm concerned. It's perfect. From the music to the diverse cast. This song in particular is so inspirational, and the two ladies performing together is like icing on the cake.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Roger's and Hammerstein have another from the 60s this was a remake but out views the first
I think Ever After is a beautiful adaptation of Cinderella.
This is the last worthy live action Cinderella.
@@drydenrose9729the first one was in 1957. And Julie Andrews played Cinderella.
Black Queens can play ANY role they want ❤️ This cast has so many ethnicities, loved it.
And that’s truly what matters. As long as a fictional character is played by a human, why does it matter the race. People should educate their own children on race and stop looking for Disney to do it for them.
That's why this version is my favorite💖💖
Whitney's voice was effortless..just beautiful vocals.
LikeMeKei Did you hear it!!!!
And especially that last note Whitney held in the end! My goodness!
LikeMeKei exactly her power clarity and vibrato was insane and breath 💯🤦🏽♂️🔥🥶🎤
@@falsettogod5853 Because she can't....
LikeMeKei Yes! So powerful, phenomenal, amazing, and out of this world!
WHITNEY AND THAT ENDING NOTE is everything
Yassssss
Omg yes!!!
She KILT THAT!!!!
Ending NOTE RIDICULOUS! It’s truly IMPOSSIBLE
I love when people notice these types of things, that end note just added 30+ years to my life
0:31 I love Whitney’s voice especially when she sings the “zanies and fools” line! Her voice was so powerful
0:51 that "everyday" is so powerful too.
She was a legend! Noone can touch her in vocals! Not even mariah!
Get chills every time
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yes!
Whitney may be gone, but her voice and soul lives through us all.
I’ve been a fan of her since this movie
@@manuelorozco7760same
@@caitlindonaghy2211 I just didn’t know it right away
I was making music/dancing with the 8yr old grandchild of my friend. He said “Prince is the greatest ancestor!” I told him, “I think Whitney is the greatest ancestor.” And this young boy says- I kid you not- “Whitney’s still alive!”
the only Cinderella that matters
***** YES
***** TBH!!!!
***** The 2015 matters the most.
What about Julie Andrews
0deadx21 It was OK, but honestly I don't see a lot of staying power (though of Disney's live action version of their animated movies attempts, it is their best)
I love the development in Brandy's voice over the years. From sweet and mellow to adult and sultry. She's always been one of the best singers to me.
Yes she has. If you look at baby Bran live, singers today still can't do the things she did
I adore her voice. It's thick and strong but dainty at the same time.
Corijuan Reese I agree she’s so slept on people don’t even realize her vocal strength.
An extremely underrated voice.
The Vocal Bible
That powerful note Whitney hits at 2:31 is simply extraordinary. The clarity, resonance, power, and vibrato
I would love to see the actual recording of that moment. She was in PERFECT voice that day!
@@brandonwhite4906 they say she just went into the studio no warmup or anything just to get that part as its not on the soundtrack version.
She was the Voice! I'm sure we'll always love her!
@@donovanrobinson1843man she snapped! And this was around the time she was having vocal issues and she still gave the voice!! Whew! We will never get another!! 😫🔥🤦🏽♂️🎤
@@ChosenRellll1111 during 1997 she had some extraordinary vocal moments. Especially her 1997 Tokyo concert its as if her voice went back to the 1993. She was belting high with incredible support and her vocal agility was off the charts.
The best version of this will always be Whitney and Brandy. ❤
So random I wanted to hear this song.
Me too lol. I woke up at 8AM and just wanted to hear it for some reason.
Same here. It was weird but I'm glad I did lol memories
3:30 woke up singing it
Ikr
i did toooo lol
Oh the final Whitney’s note !!! Is she a human being ?! That vibrato, lyrical voice... she was blessed.
She was THE VOICE! Point blank
I was looking for this comment!!!
I listen to the whole song just to hear that when I hear that I say damn🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
fr
Wait that’s Whitney houston!?
When Whitney goes "who don't believe in sensible rules" when Cinderella is in the carriage is just pure Whitney. Like it's such a small thing she did but it's one of my favorite things that she did when she sang
I absolutely love that part 2... "But the world is full of zanies and fools who don't believe in sensible rules and don't believe what sensible people"... May I continue to be a "zany" and "fool" until the day I die :-)! Only then can I make what seems impossible happen in my life ❤️
Right!
Whitney we love you still who’s here in 2020 or after ?
woohoo!
I was actually looking for the movie
Whitney looked AMAZING in this movie.
After💜💜
@@tashakayden2434 and sounded
That final note was just SICK!!!
Tenor777 All Whitney
I love the way she just drown Brandy little squeaky voice out...lol
That was Whitney? Wow
What did the note say?
@@kinkiefaerie im-poss-ible
I feel like this movie somewhat made who I am today because when I was younger I didn't even notice that a black woman and white guy had a Asian son also the step mother had two black daughters and all I saw and heard was some good ass music!!
so true, looking back now I'm thinking this is diversity at its finest
I agree Jaelynn. In fact, I was thinking what if someone created a racially diverse version of It's A Wonderful Life.
Manuel Orozco You're creepy as hell, why are you on mostly every comment thread under this video adding pretty much nothing to the conversation?
Ceka D step mom had a black and white daughter
Ceka D I think I jus paid too much attention to movies cause I remember asking my mom how did a black and white person make a asian child
THAT NOTE WHITNEY HIT AT THE END THOUGH!!!!!! OMG HER RANGE WAS STILL THERE!!!
Gold Coast as in Australia? If so, it is sooo beautiful over there and my dream Australian city to visit ‼️
She never lostt it crazy
@@diorrboyyyy She definitely did
@@falsettogod5853 what did Whitney lose????
“WHY ARE YOU DOWN THERE?!” brought me here😂😭. Rest In Peace Whitney 🙏🏾😭
Me too😆😆😆...Brandy recovered well with Whitney's mentorship. Brandy's a great actress, too
Lmfao thisssss!!!
Was that in preparation for the last note or what?
Chance the rapper. Can you believe it
Yes!! I love that video clip. She knew that Brandy could go higher so she made her. I absolutely love that. Mentor-ship.✅🎤🤩🔥❤️
Kids today will never understand the magnitude of this. I remember when ever it came on; my cousins and I would drop everything and watch!!
Awesome
It never even phased me how diverse the casting was!! Like of course the Mother is black, the father is white, and the prince is Asian... what's your point?! This movie was so ahead of its time :) I just rewatched it last night
Me too i was 8 yrs old in late 90s!
@@lessismore8533 we loved this movie but i didnt learn about how serious racism was till i got to high school. None of my white friends saw or even knew about this movie, then they would bring up stupid stuff about.brandy or whitney when I wanted to talk about the film... It hurt back in HS... To know the world was like this. I went to a mostly black/ hispanic jr highscool and middle school. Our teacher played this movie for us in afterschool... So when i got to Highschool it was a shock to see how they treated our music and movies...
I remember watching this for the first time! I was 8!
Houston was supposed to play Cinderella, but she realized she was too mature for the role. She gave it to Brandy (Whitney was executive producer)..as the fairy godmother the part was made for Houston. This was the Whitney Houston at her peak, vocally and acting. She brought a street savviness to the role, her version of the godmother had been places and knew how to get the job done ( and with a understated sexiness).
The last "possible" at the end, sent me!! Brandy vocals are sooooo strong!!! The note the tone everything PERFECT!!! They definitely didn't give her vocals enough credit for this movie!!! But she is now getting her recognition after 25 years!!!! RIP to the great and honorable Whitney Houston. I know this was beyond a one in a million moment for Brandy that she will never forget.
Lol the last note come from Whitney ! How could it be otherwise ?
I want Whitney Houston to come back as my fairy godmother!
Deep down she is your fairy god mother, she's everyone's fairy god mother
+klassicalmuzik omg that was so freaking nice and beautiful
+klassicalmuzik I knew I wasn't the only one who thought that.
+lillmango Child she may be a little shriveled up !
Segdirb Remember, black don't crack!
Everyone's here talking about the last big note and I have always felt mesmerized by her diction and tone during the first verse. Pure classic Broadway singing right here. That juicy bite and grandeur in her voice, that punch and her intonation are all worth-celebrating elements of her artistry.
This description is everything yaaaaaassss
The placement tone and diction is EVERYTHING here. So good.
YEEEESSS
This was such a pleasant read!
They don't get it sis. They think that the measure of a good singer is the highest note they can hit. They don't even know to consider the so-called small things because they can't hear them. They don't even know that it's more difficult to sing with control than it is to belt with heavy vibrato, but the latter is bigger so that's what they listen for and appreciate the most. They have no idea that tone matters so much. Though Whitney has tone for days, they would never be able to understand the possibility that Lalah Hathaway and Anita Baker have better voices. I didn't say they were better singers, but someone is going to get upset because they don't know the difference. 🤣🤣🤣 My point is, they don't know. They think they know, but they don't. Lol
The Engineers said that after a long day of recording they asked Whitney to come back and hit the D5 at the climax of the song and she did it effortlessly 🙌🏾
Disney's best live action period, hands down. You can neverrrr top a Whitney ballad.
truly
Whitney Houston is still everyone's Fairy Godmother❤️👑
Xiomara Videz yess😍
Xiomara Videz facts!!!
Yes !!!! :)
always and forever!!! bipity bopity boo
I saw this movie when I was six years old and fell in love with Whitney Houston, I'm eighteen now and am crying but smiling remembering this movie.
same. childhood.love it.
+LeahTriniteeMJLuv3 :( i miss her
Me toooooo
I was five when I first saw this movie.
LeahTriniteeMJLuv3 I was 4 or 5 I remember watching it in pre k
The best thing about this is that Whitney really was a fairy godmother to Brandy and a host of other young female singers. No jealousy or resentment at all. She loved being a source of encouragement and support to the up and coming generation of vocalists.
Whitneys voice is the greatest of all time
Whitney's dress is so iconic. I remember watching this movie when I was younger and marveling at her sleeves. She looks so regal in that dress.
I remember being mesmerized by all of the gorgeous colors of the set and costumes when I was a kid. I totally agree!
She was absolutely an amazingly beautiful women! I wish she honestly knew that because wow!
This is the best Cinderella ever. Nothing can top it!!!!
Sapphire Flames The 2015 Cinderella movie topped all the rest.
0deadx21 to me that one is over rated, sure its updated from the original Cinderella (Disney's) but to me it still doesn't top this Cinderella
Sapphire Flames Does top it how? This here movie isn't meant to be taken seriously, and obviously the best Cinderella movie can never be that kind of movie.
0deadx21 that's logic is stupid
KidSnivy69 Cinderella (2015) easily tops all previous Cinderella films. And I highly anyone would dare to top it.
This is even more amazing since Whitney is who discovered Brandy She truly was Brandy's fairy godmother.
RIP Queen Whitney
What in the world. She didn’t discover Brandy. At this point, Brandy was already a multiplantinum artist.
@@andrewjames954 yeah she did she discovered brandy when she was a teen well before this movie. I didn't say she discovered her at that point.
THE best Cinderella movie ever made. Periodt.
Brandy and Whitney were such a great team.
Anyssa their voices blend so well together
Anyssa If only they shared more adventures together
That’s her god daughter!
R.I.P to an icon WHITNEY HOUSTON 😭😭😭🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
jadacamille Yes along with her co producer Craig Zadan
I still miss her
R.I.P🙏🏽❤️
This song makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, it's like coming back to an old blanket I haven't seen in a while. I'll never be able to put into words how important this movie was for me and how inspiring it was to see Whitney and Brandy play these iconic characters. 23 years later and impossible things are still happening every day!!
As much as I like Julie Andrews's and Lesley Ann Warren's versions of this song, Brandy and Whitney Houston knocked it outta the park. So uplifting and the music is more magical than ever! Rodgers and Hammerstein I bet would of loved this immensely! Best version of their musical EVER! Love R&H music so much!
I was introduced to Rogers and Hammerstein because of this version. But I prefer the original with Madame Andrews
RIP Whitney Houston! We miss you so much!
this is what I want every day
My queen 👑
tbh this was my favorite Cinderella movie
YESS
Same
Kesha Smith mine too
Kesha Smith YASSSSS
It's my favorite too
QUEEN!! Brandy's lazy "impossible" kills me every time😭🙉 1:03
I didn't even notice 🤣🤣🤣
YESSSS
You have good ears for sound.
I wouldn't call it "lazy" so much as "hopeless."
“Impozzibleee”
Beautiful ladies ❤❤❤😍
At the "1:50" mark, the way she pushed out that "who" is why I love Whitney !
Jane Smith everytime I play the song in my mind I always hear that specific part no matter what. I love Whitney and I wish she was still alive to do a remake of this movie or something
I try to hit those notes... I need to stop trying
Yesss 🔥
Yessz
Lauren Solano literally same. That’s the only way I can hear that part.
I remember watching this with my mom back in the day as a kid. Yelling at the tv like; "aye there go moesha ma!" We bonded over this. Both my mom and Whitney were born in 1963; now they are both in Heaven. Rest In Paradise beautiful Queens.
Rest In Peace ❤️
rest in peace 💓
Rest In Peace

Love and prayers and condolences💕💕💕
R.I.P. to the Queen ❤️
OMG WHITNEY’s VOICE IS SO POWERFUL AND STRONG …The greatest vocalist ever !!!
this song gets me through college, one impossible class at a time :)
Yesss that's like the best comment I've seen in a while
👏🏽🔑
Yess!! The Zanies & Fools are the professors and staff😂
Did you get through?
Does anyone find that the colors in the set and costume are perfect??? The colors go so well with whitneys voice
OMG and all the tiny rhinestones that sparkled and went in a pattern, those details. The only thing I didn't like was the squiqilies lines (only because it reminds me of that god awful curly font that was over used in 2000)
I just read an article about the movie and they did that on purpose to bring everyone's races together. They also based Whitney's look on Klimt paintings!
Stone [石のドラム] Her voice is magical and so is the costume
Yes and in the closing scene when her outfit becomes this sort of golden white tone. This movie was magical in so many ways.
That's not an accident, set design, fashion designers, art directors ...people dont realize those are important jobs:)
“For the world is full of zanies and fools, who don't believe in sensible rules, and won't believe what sensible people say. And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes keep building up impossible hopes, impossible-things are happening every day.”
I needed these lyrics
This message is such a blessing. We all need to keep hoping in the impossible.
Thank you
Whitney Houston greatest singer of all time

same here! The first cinderella movie I've ever watched
I thought I was the only one. And then I asked my mom about it she had no clue until I (horribly) sang "impooooosible!" And she got it. And I was relieved that it was a thing.

Probably one of the most inspiring messages of our time!
Still speaks to us today even if things have changed since the 90's.
Yessssss
Favorite part
Whitney made a fabulous god mother, she really nailed the role.
This movie was so diverse without even trying to be. It wasn’t forced like it is today - just so natural and beautiful
Social media didn’t exist back then
This was my first exposure to onscreen diversity
Because it's based in how it is in a lot of actual plays. They get the best actors/actresses. It doesn't matter the race or age on stage.
Because they didn't care about "looking like the original" or whether the races made sense, whoever was best got it
Because it came from the mind and heart of Whitney with no agenda ❤
Whitney houston is in Guinness World Record for female artist of all time with over 400+ career awards.
It’s actually 700
Whitney and Brandy was a match made in music heaven
Ikr!
Whitney and brandy was a match
Music heave
Facts
...Whitney wanted to play Cinderella at first, but realized that she was too old when this finally came to production; she called Brandy and asked her to play Cinderella. Watch the documentary.
@@ashantijames4400 why u keep copying comments weirdo
Whitney gives me chills still to this day. Everything about her. Every video, every song, every interview, everything.
***** I really do miss her like I knew her. It's weird because I don't get weird like that about anyone. Any time I start missing her, I just truly believe shes the head of Heaven's choir. Haha. I don't know, it just makes me feel better thinking she's singing with angels.
I totally agree with u. Were so lucky she left us the music
Joseph Avila I just pray the young generation will never forget her. It's fine to listen to Beyonce and Nicki Minaj... I'm just as guilty, but I truly hope they remember THIS talent and help it live on even now that she's gone.
Madison Ordy I loved this song from the Broadway/ earlier movie version a version and this one too!
STILL!!!! I miss her so much... I was tearing up just watching her singing LIVE and alive again... I miss this woman
That last note was Whitney bringing it home for me... impossible 🎼🎵🎶🎵
That last note was Whitney bringing it
Home forb me impossible
That D5 Whitney sustains at the end is iconic!
And people thought was brandy
@@pedro9107 😂. Ikr! When singing next to Whitney Brandy usually sings the bottom (I mean who wants to sing above Whitney Houston? My vocal cords would never last a second up there. 😂. Also, your vocal range video of dancing on the smooth edge by Whitney houston is almost done. It's on the way! 👍😁😉
@@musicallychallenged2848 yeah you can clearly hear brandy at the bottom as whitney ascends,it is unmistakable her diction in the end of impossible,oh really? Thats a good thing I loooooove your vocal showcase videos
@@pedro9107 ikr! Lol. Brandy doesn't typically sustain that high. In that ending Whitney sustains the D5 and Brandy sustains the G4. If they listen closely, Whitney is ringing on top note while Brandy is singing the bottom (Whitney kind of overpowers her here, so it's hard to hear her towards the very end). In the harmonized belt Brandy hold the G4 for the first 3 seconds, leaving Whitney to finish out the high D note for the remainder of the belt.
@@pedro9107 😊 thanks. And yes you're correct.
Someone gave me this movie for a gift as a child and I have to say it was one of the best gifts I've ever gotten.
I love this version of the movie, it gives you chills.
I luv diz version too sis
Autumn Phoenix i know that the rodger’s and Hammerstein Cinderella was on Broadway, but it wasn’t exactly the same as this movie also the cast wasn’t diverse at ALL. Idk if it’s still on broadway but they should do a reunion of this cast (rip whitney) and have them perform this on broadway
Whitney is the GOAT. Periodt and and Brandys voice is phenomenal! This is my all time childhood favorite! To see a black Cinderella with braids in her hair spoke volumes and shows anything is possible. What a long time coming for every black girl to see themselves as a princess in America on television. Thank you Brandy and Whitney 😄🎉
This movie really changed the opportunities for black female r&b singers! This was the first time we were able to actually see successful and celebrated RB songstress’ able to excel in broadway/stage style productions paving the way for people like Keke Palmer and Fantasia.
No it was not. Quit acting like black R&B singers weren't doing big things well before 1997. 🙄
@@skip031890 never said they weren’t. But I understand you need a moment!

Why is this not on Disney plus?
Too underrated
I know right 😭
The film was first aired on ABC Wonderful World of Disney channel so it is indeed a Disney film. It hasn't been updated for digital platforms yet, so that's probably the reason it is not on Disney+
My Thought's true, but my name is not everyone
@My Thought's That's a little small minded don't ya think? Because this thing called representation matters.
YOU BETTA SANG WHITNEY.
My God.
This movie is the best Cinderella there ever was! ✨️💖
It really is!!!
HAPPY 25;th To This CINDERELLA
When people could actually sing in movie adaptions of musicals

Well it was cast like it was a Broadway musical, hence the gorgeous assortment we were blessed with.
Exactly
@Arielle Legrand I was more referring to movie adaptations of stage musicals, like Phantom, Les Mis, and Sweeney Todd.
Whitney truly had the voice of an angel. It was so surreal and unbelievable like straight out of a fairy tale, hence her playing the lovable Fairy Godmother. Loved her friendship with the R&B beauty that is Brandy
Perfect role!!
If I have NEVER been grateful for anything I’m BEYOND grateful that Nippy left us with this! #itspossible
Whitney is the exact representation of vocal freedom !! I swear she will always be my vocal hero 💯😭
2:26 "It's pooooossssiiiiibllllllleeeeee!!!" What an ending... vocals for days!!
Whitney’s voice is beyond words
Culture has changed so drastically, it's almost like the 80s-90s-00s never happened
Yeah feels like it
that’s the goal of our global elite overloads. Divide, hate, be conquered.
Whitney and those notes!!!! ♥️
Whitney and these notes
Had the most horrible day. I'm out of town working and the post office lost the rent money order I sent. I got the run around ALL day, and still no results. This song popped up in my head. I know it will work out, so I refuse to stress myself over the weekend! Impossible things are happening every day!
I'm sorry you had such a bad day. Hope this week turned out a bit better. It's possible x
What's really impossible is how insanely incredible Ms. Houston's voice was. Just extraordinary.
This made me smile.🤍
Whitney Houston was such a lovely, wonderful woman. Beautiful on the outside and magical on the inside. Blessed to have had her spirit with us.
why isn't this soundtrack on itunes?
There's no soundtrack because Disney didn't have the rights to release Whitney's voice on a CD. She was under contract to Arista Records, and apparently, the two companies couldn't reach an agreement.
Sad to hear
I always wondered that as well.
OceanKingNY it wasn't Disney's fault, it was Brandy's record company. They're still deadlocked today.
So if i want this sonudtrack, it is bootleg city?
I hear this Song & think about how with God all things are possible & with God nothing is Impossible.
Amén x3
Erin Downing Amen
Me too. Amen
Erin Downing AMEN!!
I’m a grown men and I love this song. Whitney voice was incredible
I loved their duets..Whitney & Brandy's harmonies were so perfect for this song
Whitney's last note ALWAYS give me chills! Smh She was never afraid to sing out!
