That was the first thing I thought - who is she! All the musicians are excellent - guitar also - wouldn't expect any less from Lincoln Center Jazz, but pianist is great!
Her voice is so unique it has a very youthful adolescent tone to it, it’s not trying to sing high or low it’s naturally bright and sweet but soulful at the same time.
@@factpreacher5691 sorry she’s so nasal… the reasons of the youthful tone and brightness is due to the nasality if she sings in a pharyngeal way her voice will definitely carry more weight ….. z
She made me 'hear' the lyrics for the first time...the story behind it. Nobody comes close to Whitney vocally...but Cynthia, the actress, is a story teller.
Yes indeed and a backing track too...OMG I love she repected this and still gave her own. I've heard Brandy and JHud sing like the original but it was just good. But this is just flawless and funky. I am sure that Whitney and Narada Michael Walden would be proud. If you gonna do Whitney you got to be able to sang!!! Brava!!!
I never thought I would hear anyone do this justice without trying to mimic Whitney. I just did and I'm blown away. I love it when an artist can make the song totally theirs. Bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this arrangement too! I feel like it was a great way to tackle a Whitney song by doing it justice and adding your own spin to it. When trying to sing it originally, it’s hard to mimic “THE VOICE” so I could see ppl getting lost in the song bcuz it’s not their interpretation. It was Whitney’s. Once you give your own interpretation and add your own flavor to it like Cynthia did, to me, is a GREAT combination for tackling a Whitney or an iconic song or voice..
It's a DANCE song, I LOVE HER. However, this arrangement is AWFUL! The last thing I WANT TO DO IS DANCE WITH somebody who loves me or anyone! If it's NOT broken... do NOT try to fix it! Still love her voice, but if you are HONEST, this was AWFUL!
@Trent Gentry More attention? Dear God, she's already all over the place - miscast as Aretha and all. She has the Wicked movie coming up and many more projects in the works. Check out her IMBD page. Thankfully, the Color Purple movie went to Fantasia. There are hundreds of talented singers and actors who get no attention at all. We get more than our share of Erivo.
@@TruthSerum101 Cynthia is predominantly a theater actress. She has only been getting more roles in films & television in the past few years. He’s right about her not having a lot of attention. For example, she’s not as big and as well-known as other actresses who are also currently in their 30s like Margot Robbie, Emma Stone, Scarlett Johansson, Gal Gadot, Jennifer Lawrence, etc if you know what I mean.
@@hoseasylvester2596 it all is connected, and just because she’s British doesn’t mean her tone isn’t soulful which many African Americans seem to dump upon her.
@@jak30341 I just said her accent doesn't give her tone. So that thing about African Americans was completely irrelevant i just said an accent does not give you your tone so why are you talking about her speaking voice? Tone is a singing term. An accent does affect your speaking voice but not your tone. So far your arguments have been completely irrelevant
Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate the love, being the one who created this arrangement and orchestration and being the purple haired woman behind the piano ;) 🎹
When someone like Whitney sings a song, even if some person else is singing that song, i still keep hearing Whitneys voice. She was my very , very favorite singer and i will always love that lady, but this lady did her justice.
THIS LADY RIGHT IS NOT HUMAN!!!!!! Her vocals are out of this world 🌎. This arrangement is so Devin. She sings with such grace, I need her to record this immediately. She is always glowing when she sings. She is unparalleled. 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Her acting chops really show through in her vocal talent. Same with Barbra Streisand….this is what makes Ms. Erivo so special. Love her! That Lincoln Center Band kicks some serious ass too. Fantastic.
This has me in a chokehold!! The arrangement is perfect, Cynthia has an angelic tone about her voice, the bgv's are on point, the percussion is driving the song, the pianist is giving me life, but as a bassist myself, the bassist's placement and tone is impeccable!! Whitney would be proud 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Whitney's version was pure pop and energy. This version is more mellow and the African vibes and rhythms are much stronger, along with the jazz harmonies. Interesting version indeed! Kudos to the arranger!
Every time I see Cynthia I cry because she’s so frigging talented, she makes every song her own. And I’m just so happy she’s getting her recognition, I’ve been following her for 9/10 years. I first saw her singing Beneath Your Beautiful with Mike Hough. At that moment I knew she was gonna be someone.
I was prepared to not like it, but this Lady is a special one. She’s just impeccable. A princess who sounds like an angel and her version is so sensual and send me neo soul vibes. I LOVED it.
When Whitney sings this songs my ears listen to it but when this woman sings this song, my body listens to it...the body always tells the real story, this rendition is perfection

@@AnnastasiaVictoryMusic You should be proud of it. It is one of the hippest things I have ever heard--or watched. And I have seen, heard and played a lot of stuff over the years, but you are just incredible. So glad to have discovered you--thanks to a singer that brought it to my attention.
Clock strikes upon the hour And the sun begins to fade Still enough time to figure out How to chase my blues away I've done alright up to now It's the light of day that shows me how And when the night falls, loneliness calls Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me I've been in love and lost my senses Spinning through the town Sooner or later, the fever ends And I wind up feeling down I need a man who'll take a chance On a love that burns hot enough to last So when the night falls My lonely heart calls Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me Somebody oo Somebody oo Somebody who loves me yeah Somebody oo Somebody oo To hold me in his arms oh I need a man who'll take a chance On a love that burns hot enough to last So when the night falls My lonely heart calls Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me Don'tcha wanna dance with me baby Dontcha wanna dance with me boy Hey Don'tcha wanna dance with me baby With somebody who loves me Don'tcha wanna dance, say you wanna dance, don'tcha wanna dance Don'tcha wanna dance, say you wanna dance, don'tcha wanna dance Don'tcha wanna dance, say you wanna dance With somebody who loves me Dance
It gives me a bit ot " It's not right but it's ok" vibes. I love this new version of that beautiful song. And people in thstage seemed to be nejoying, look at the singers having fun with the harmonies, or the way they looked at the guitar guy (he was splendid by the way!) And Cynthia was giving the best energy too.
It would have made my entire life to be there in person. INCREDIBLE arrangement and performances from the band and backup vocalists! And I can never give enough praise to the phenomenal Cynthia Erivo 🙌🏽
I can't believe I'm actually saying the s sounds better than the original. I'm a die hard Whitney Houston fan, I've always been since day one. Literally cursing out anybody who said anything bad, I watched all her TV shows. Whitney was it for me! But for some reason I'm really digging this Jazzy version, and her youth adolescent soul too. Wow.
One of the best singers the world would ever know thank you so much Cynthia erivo for blessing us with your beautiful voice and your beautiful face on the big-screen you are one gorgeous beautiful soulful talented unique individual and God has blessed us to have heard your voice I thank you
WOW ....HOW CREATIVE!! I love jazz and this song that Whitney the GODDESS OF HER VOICE DID. Where there you go GOD JUST KEEPS CREATING BEAUTIFUL GIFTS EXPRESSED THROUGH THIS HUMAN EXPERIENCE. THIS LADY IS MISTIC WITH HER GOD GIFT. THANK YOU FOR LETTING MY LIFE BE ENJOYED EVEN MORE!!
Cindy is a phenomenal songstress. Her voice is "Honey"! Her demeanor is calm and regal! This arrangement is great. She kept to the original with a little addition to make it her own. And the pianist...priceless❤
omg , this is the best cover i’ve heard of this song and it’s such a vibe ! this is my fav song of all time and the fact she made it her own vibe was so amazing, i was grooving the whole time🤌🏾
Wow! This actually made me emotional. I love Whitney's version so much & always will, but this arrangement really allowed me to tap into the longing behind the lyrics...in a way that I never had before. Because Whitney took you on a hopeful joyride with it, and Cynthia went in another heartfelt direction. Both amazing.

Woman on the piano is killing it
That was the first thing I thought - who is she! All the musicians are excellent - guitar also - wouldn't expect any less from Lincoln Center Jazz, but pianist is great!
She playing that piano 🎹🎶
She should audition for the voice
Sis on the piano is living her BEST life!!!! 😂😂😂👍👍👍👍
I hear that
Period!?!? I mean tore it up!
Definitely 🎶🎹
🤣🤣
she sure is and I love it!!+
Her voice is so unique it has a very youthful adolescent tone to it, it’s not trying to sing high or low it’s naturally bright and sweet but soulful at the same time.
She’s just nasal that’s the reason
@@robertmonthe9750 Nope, a lot of singers sings nasally, but Cynthia has really youthful and soul sound.
I had the same thought! I just couldn't translate it into words. Thanks for explaining!
@@factpreacher5691 sorry she’s so nasal… the reasons of the youthful tone and brightness is due to the nasality if she sings in a pharyngeal way her voice will definitely carry more weight ….. z
I wouldn't say she is soulful but she definitely has a purity to her voice. I feel like she might be a lyric soprano.
The pianist!!!!! Love this arrangement
Right she was grooving!
She crushed it!
Amazing!
Anastasia!
The pianist, standing up and raising a hand to signal the end of great performance for me, made my music soul oh so very happy. Exceptional! ❤🎶🎶👑
She made me 'hear' the lyrics for the first time...the story behind it. Nobody comes close to Whitney vocally...but Cynthia, the actress, is a story teller.
❤ beautifully said
I really like that about switching up and mellowing out the delivery of a song. The lyrics can marinate.
Yes Cynthia is the Truth
she is so versitile.... i'm probably gonna get hated for saying this but i think she was better vocally singing alfie than when whitney covered it
Well said
I love Whitney but this version actually makes me wanna dance with somebody who loves me 🥲😭
Exactly! It has more emotionality.
ruclips.net/video/b1yOIx0sdys/видео.html
Dance with me lol
Yes this version is more Rnb where as Whitney’s is 80s pop style.
That wonderful slow sway as you stare into their eyes and makes you fall in love with your person even more.
we need a studio version of this!!!
Yes indeed and a backing track too...OMG I love she repected this and still gave her own. I've heard Brandy and JHud sing like the original but it was just good. But this is just flawless and funky. I am sure that Whitney and Narada Michael Walden would be proud. If you gonna do Whitney you got to be able to sang!!! Brava!!!
@@miawa70 this was indeed amazing, but please don’t put down other artists to uplift this one. They were all wonderful
no fr
Agreed!!
ong
I never thought I would hear anyone do this justice without trying to mimic Whitney. I just did and I'm blown away. I love it when an artist can make the song totally theirs. Bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!
She really blows this song out the window's yessss
She looks and sounds ridiculous
Different song, but Angelina Jordan (she's a teen) does an amazing cover of I Have Nothing
Wow! I'm a die hard Whitney fan, but Cynthia gave this a very different and interesting vibe. Bravo!
I was prepared not to like it.
ruclips.net/video/b1yOIx0sdys/видео.html
That was freaking awesome! I love this arrangement. I think Whitney would have loved it, too. 🎶
Whitney would have jumped up and down watching this performance even shower Cynthia lots of love even.

Yes, the arrangement was a whole vibe!
I totally disagree, I find it boring, that song is an upbeat song and she made it boring.
I was totally bored watching it
@@Demonkingemperor500 I feel that. To each it’s own..
This is arrangement is soooo smooth! Legit GROWN & SEXY!!!!! Cynthia is such an incredible vocalist!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's a DANCE song, I LOVE HER. However, this arrangement is AWFUL! The last thing I WANT TO DO IS DANCE WITH somebody who loves me or anyone! If it's NOT broken... do NOT try to fix it! Still love her voice, but if you are HONEST, this was AWFUL!
There will always be a hater
@@cynthiacadet4353 LoL I dont think shes hating, it's just her opinion... Personally I don't agree with her opinion but she is entitled to it... 😊👍🏾
The chick on the Piano was totally Badass!!! Yasssss!!!
This was a straight vibe , Cynthia’s range and ability is underrated
The woman can sing ANYTHING
She’s phenomenal. Such an underrated singer I love the arrangement ❤️
How is she underrated?
Yeah she’s deffo not underrated
Definitely not underrated. She just doesn’t sing pop music.

It’s the British accent her voice is so gorgeous and pure
An accent doesn't give you your tone
@@hoseasylvester2596 it all is connected, and just because she’s British doesn’t mean her tone isn’t soulful which many African Americans seem to dump upon her.

I love the pianist here. She’s phenomenal
Wow Cynthia put a new twist on Whitney Houston's hit I Wanna Dance With Somebody, LOVE It.
what else could she do? she knew better and stayed in that one tone.
@@mothermarlow4914 I guess you haven’t seen the range Cynthia has, because this comment undermines her talent.
@@adamnguyen966 nonetheless it is true.
No matter how good her voice is… WHITNEY reigns supreme!!!! ❤❤❤❤
But why are you here? Comment is not needed. NO ONE IS TAKING A THANG FROM WHITNEY AT ALL!!
Right, this is too sterile. Whitney had passion.
The pianist is experiencing so much pleasure! I was delighted to see its a woman on keys!
She's not singing....SHE'S TELLING A STORY.....👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
As a huge WH fan, I’m so glad Cynthia made this song her own. I’m a new fan 😍
Lady on keys is in her own world and I LOVE it🔥🔥🔥🔥
When she performed to honor Earth Wind and Fire… omg she killed it! And this rendition is proof what a singer she is.
i lover how she sings Reason by Earth wind and fire
I agree. I love the song Reason by Earth, Wind and Fire but she put such a good spin on it and made it her own. Classic!
Gurl, you cannot call an artist doing Lincoln Center an underrated one.👏👏👏👏
Amen.
Nobody can sing this as good as WH.... but i will be honest and admit i enjoyed this different arrangement.
It’s never about trying to be the original artist. No one will ever be like any vocalist that’s the joy of it. Love the arrangement.
Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate the love, being the one who created this arrangement and orchestration and being the purple haired woman behind the piano ;) 🎹
Can we talk about the background singers? They ATE.
When someone like Whitney sings a song, even if some person else is singing that song, i still keep hearing Whitneys voice. She was my very , very favorite singer and i will always love that lady, but this lady did her justice.
Those Congo drums in the background are amazing. This entire arrangement is excellent.
This arrangement is off the charts! The versatility of her vocals is remarkable to say the least and those back ground singers were killing it!!
THIS LADY RIGHT IS NOT HUMAN!!!!!! Her vocals are out of this world 🌎. This arrangement is so Devin. She sings with such grace, I need her to record this immediately. She is always glowing when she sings. She is unparalleled. 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Whos Devin?
Her acting chops really show through in her vocal talent. Same with Barbra Streisand….this is what makes Ms. Erivo so special. Love her! That Lincoln Center Band kicks some serious ass too. Fantastic.
WHITNEY HOUSTON WOULD BE SO PROUD OF THIS PERFORMANCE, IM SURE SHE IS LOOKING DOWN WITH A SMILE ON HER FACE.
This has me in a chokehold!! The arrangement is perfect, Cynthia has an angelic tone about her voice, the bgv's are on point, the percussion is driving the song, the pianist is giving me life, but as a bassist myself, the bassist's placement and tone is impeccable!! Whitney would be proud 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Definitely think Whitney would've appreciated this. I see her smiling face - dancing in the audience. Well done 👏🏾
Jesusssssss Whitney would be proud ❤

Attending an event where she sings is like being in the classiest event ever
Ya'll how in the world is this audience glued to their chairs? while I'm up hollering because Cynthia Erivo just moved mountains with this song!
I think maybe they are just fixed mesmerised. I know I am. My jaw is on the floor with anything this woman does.

Well... it's been two months that I put this track at least once a day...just can't get enough...pure fire!!!...
The way she sings man ,, it’s like a light breeze
Not one of my favorite Whitney songs, but Cynthia puts the would back in it. Love it. This version is phenomenal.
Her voice is beyond beautiful
I LOVE, When The Musicians Enjoy Each Others' Accompaniment And Themselves With Themselves And Each Other... I Be Enjoying That Lol... God Is Good.

Clock strikes upon the hour
And the sun begins to fade
Still enough time to figure out
How to chase my blues away
I've done alright up to now
It's the light of day that shows me how
And when the night falls, loneliness calls
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
I've been in love and lost my senses
Spinning through the town
Sooner or later, the fever ends
And I wind up feeling down
I need a man who'll take a chance
On a love that burns hot enough to last
So when the night falls
My lonely heart calls
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Somebody oo Somebody oo
Somebody who loves me yeah
Somebody oo Somebody oo
To hold me in his arms oh
I need a man who'll take a chance
On a love that burns hot enough to last
So when the night falls
My lonely heart calls
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Don'tcha wanna dance with me baby
Dontcha wanna dance with me boy
Hey Don'tcha wanna dance with me baby
With somebody who loves me
Don'tcha wanna dance, say you wanna dance, don'tcha wanna dance
Don'tcha wanna dance, say you wanna dance, don'tcha wanna dance
Don'tcha wanna dance, say you wanna dance
With somebody who loves me
