6:00

How does one develop a voice like this?

There Will Never Be Another Whitney E Houston! The things she could do with her Vocals Is Amazing. God Gave Whitney Wonderful Gifts And She Shard It With The World. Thank You God And Thank You Whitney. Rest In Heavenly Peace With Our Lord 🙏💜🎶⚘️🎵🙏🎶💜⚘️🎵🙏🎶💜 Thank you for this post⚘️

I want to add something that is very hard to control. Going in and out of volume. Shirley is a master of swollowing her enormous fortes, diminuendos that is. Having a forte that big takes air, lots of air. You set that air under pressure to increase volume and often singers has to like "jump out" of that state, in order not to faint or get dizzy from internal pressure. But not Shirley, she handles her voice from softest piano to the grandest forte fortisimo as if she had a seamless volumebutton. Many times i get more impressed over how she gets herself in and out of thees enormous fortes, than the forte itself.

I think Dame Shirley Bassey is one of the greatest voices of the recorded musical performance. When I think of the power of her voice, I also think of Mina Mazzini, Dalida, Rocio Jurado, and Sabah.

She almost uses an old school operatic chest voice approach, insanely well developed voice.

She has a voice quality andva technique that up to now has not been reached by any other famous singer❤.

And a chain smoker all I can say is God

0:45 daaaang

As one who thinks this woman is absolutely fabulous, in my top 7 for sure, and who thinks Whitney is the best EVER, past, present and future, I just watched a side by side, and while biting my tonque, SB almost makes WH sound like she sings compressed. Amazing. Whitney's voice and reaonance, power, how the music just flows,is incredible, and so is Ms. Bassey.

Gorgeous voice brilliant technique ❤️

She was pushing that voice so high so when the 90s got here she didn’t sound like the same

You can hear the different in timbre when she opens up her mouth to utilize that pharyngeal resonance

WHATS THE SONG CALLED AT 1:44

Hi. I would just like to add some things I learned about singing. Regarding the "too chesty" part of her voice. As someone who had lessons for opera singing, the chest placement is very essential to achieving powerful vibrato. Considering that this is POP MUSIC, Nippy did a great job in that chest voice (trust me it ain't for everyone). Opera chest voice is harder than what she is doing, because opera singers had to resonate in 400+ seat opera houses without microphones during the time of composers like Mozart. Whitney still needed a mic because pop music involved modern instruments and Whitney's technique wouldn't reach the very back of an arena if there was no mic. Honestly it's not really fair for people to say the criticisms mentioned in the video, because pop music globally is applying what you learned before (Gospel, opera, traditional folk singing, etc.) into song. Whitney was trained in Gospel, which relied on chest voice a lot back then (Idk about now). I don't have anything about using nasality in music nowadays, since I also like stylistic choices at times. However, that chest voice will still remain insane. People should also learn about it. Btw loved this video. Keep up the good work🎉🎉🎉

10:21 loll overpowered

5:12 she’s like, “Hang on Luther I’m not done!”

A video where people actually know what they're talking about!

@GVOCALS, Thank you very much for sharing with us your very interesting break down analysis of the Dame Veronica's voice and performance. However, I think we should point out yet some other aspects, which we might find at least so much if not even more important when praising the global phenomena of DSVB. Here I'd like to recall a few which I find very important: a. Firstly, her fascinating virtue which I enjoy very much is her beautiful and persistently highest AESTHETIC AND ARTISTIC TASTE in usage of such a wide range of her vocal and other "weapons", ensuring the proper measure of each for a particular song or performance. And besides, let's not forget that here we are talking about her consistency not only for some year or a decade -- it's for the entire her career, practically the whole her life! I think only the very biggest true artists of all times are/were able to do it in this way! b. Then, there is her overwhelmingly PASSIONATE WAY OF SINGING, showing that this genuine passion is coming right from the very core of Dame Shirley, because, in fact -- this passion just IS Dame Shirley! We can see that in "speaking" of her eyes, in her smiling, in motion of her hands, which are talking almost as much as the song lyrics are! I guess it's coming from the Welsh part of her temperament, and that passion is really important and it's amazing part of the whole impression from her performances! c. And finally, to my taste absolutely miraculous and most charming Veronica's talent -- her fascinating, magnificent style of diction. Where the poetry from lyrics is so beautifully preserved and even emphasized by her so magical, touching, insane MIXTURE OF SINGING AND RECITING the song. And which is then additionally embellished by her beautiful and powerful voice! And here, as the biggest highlight in this I find her unmatched style of singing "If You Go Away". Sometimes I like to joke by saying that she could easily make the poetry even from the logarithmic tables. Generally, I think that Dame Shirley Veronica Bassey and her songs are an amazing source of paradigmatic lessons for generations of young singers to come!

Chills honey! Just chills!! Oooh!! ♥️💞✨

Autopsy guy said her vocal cords was so different from a normal looking vocal cords. It stands out from the rest. Her voice came from her mother.

Whitney mother taught her there is only 3 places to sing from. That is the diaphragm, chest and head.

That last clip of her at the church gave me some warm chills.

She's the best singer for me. The openness and the big and round sound quality is so powerfu.

Which show is that last GLOA from? I need it!!

I’m so gutted she never got the chance to play Elphaba. If only wicked was created during the late 80s or early 90s!

Can singing like this, especially with how much Whitney performed? Can that can damage the voice over time?

Check Cissy at 0:38. Her entire body posture exhudes oh so confidently..."I created that."

5:15

Beyonce could never

❤❤my favorite 😍

Just wonderful. Style, class and stamina, endless stamina.

That few glimpses of her headvoice though, very underrated singer

Her voice is a roar from the heavens. 5:15. Sadly she was taken advantage of for money. I love Whitney she’s singing to the lord in heaven

It wasn't just the strength and power in her voice, it was the beauty of that plummy, bronze timbre. Her technique was rock solid. Her vibrato was even from the top to the bottom of her register in her prime, and her breath management added a mystique to her belts that almost sounded like they were unleashed like a sonic boom. You can really hear that snap in her full throated belt on the last clip on "The Greatest Love of Aaaaaall..." We will never have another Whitney, but I am SO SO glad we got to have her as we did.

Was Whitney a soprano? I always thought she was more of a (dramatic) *mezzo-soprano* with great coloratura skills that by sheer talent could easily access the higher soprano register, but her tessitura was more in the middle register IMO.

great singer

What a monstrous vibrato!

wow wetney huston the best

The G.O.A.T💜💜💜💜

That 'All At Once' performance tho, her voice is so big and free

She wasn’t always a mezzo.

She also sang straight from her diaphram!

Her chest cordinated belting voice was INCREDIBLE!
