unlike many singers she did not make the mistake of trying to sing like whitney, she sang it like heather headley only could
Marquis Bryant she sang it as it should be sung in a musical version :)
You've got that right! No one can outperform this lady, for sure!
Amen, Marquis. She applied her brand to the meaning written in the words of this song by singing her style...to me a combination of soul and artistry.
Thank you. This sounds just as beautiful as Whitney and Dolly’s version.
Beutifuly
What a performer. The most underrated singer of all time
Whitney and Heather were spectacular singing this song! Just a side note---we should also give thanks to Dolly Parton who wrote the song!
I agree totally. I said the same thing. If Dolly had never did it, then this amazing song would have never exsited. So props to her for this song and Whitney, who took it to another level. Great work by two icons.
+Raymond Sherbaum and Dolly also sang the hell out of it, as did Whitney, and this girl is puttin' a hurtin' on it.
Raymond Sherbaum
Yeah, and actually Dollys version is reallllllly good too....Whitneys version is just hard to top. And that's even with Dollys version being absolutely amazing
agree with all you said.
Her control, unlike so many who cover/sing this song, is amazing. Many can hit the notes, but few with such precision. She is a broadway legend.
She is honestly the only woman who can cover any song and make it amazing. She is The Voice of Theatre.
Speaking of covers, I was thinking for a while Heather should do a Disney album.
ACTUALLY NICOLE SCHERZINGER IS ALSO ANOTHER ULTIMATE IN STUNNING VERSATILITY
Brandon The Unicorn p
Have you heard of Charice? Then you should check out her. She was named the most talented girl in THE WORLD by Oprah so....
@@happylife5071 NOW TRANSITIONED TO A BOY AND THE VOICE IS GONE
To get in front of a live audience and start Acappella is no easy task.
She did an amazing job. whitney would be proud.
Whitney would be so proud of this performance.
Robert Dumbrill Whitney would have went crazy and ran through the aisles like she did when Kim Burrell sang "I Believe in You and Me."
yes she would've. she paid tribute by singing that song with reverence and respect that it was due
And the writer and first one to sing it, miss Dolly Parton.
@@JamesJonesPlayBack exactly
Agreed
Woah impeccable breath control; I'm astonished!
Wow, she sang this song from her soul! Phenomenal voice!
Heather Headley is Beyond brilliant. She is so beautiful and talented her voice is a masterpiece
This woman sang on Broadway for 3 years. She's put out multiple hit records and toured the world. This is her touring the world in a stage play for "The Bodyguard". Why would you think she would be nervous?
This woman's voice is just so Beautiful :) She really made it her own.
yes indeed!!
That nasal resonance voice make sHeather distinct...
She's great...
Perfect....she sung this as Heather not Whitney...Awesome rendition....
I have to say it, I have heard Whitney Houston for many years singing this song as she did in the movie the bodyguard, but listening to heather Headly at this right moment blows my mind. she is out of this world, brilliant, authentic, original, definitely she is the best. i will always love Whitney but Heather Headly is ....................
this woman can sing
she absolutely blew me away! No one will ever sing it exactly like whitney, but this woman was absolutely outstanding! the audience were captivated. x
Her projection HURTS my soul.
So beautiful!!
the broadway in her.
no one will ever replace Whitney but this lady does an amazing version in tribute to THE QUEEN OF THE NIGHT
Whitney Houston is my idol, but i have to admit that this really is one of the best live rendition of this song.
I am glad that this woman's performance at the West End garnered rave reviews. :) She clearly deserves it. And I commend her for taking a role for which she is sure to be compared of the late Whitney Houston. Very brave taking on WH songs which she was able to give justice to... I'm sure Whitney's really proud of the project and Heather herself. :)
Anyone still listening in October 2019?
Duh..who ever clicked is listening....tired old comment
Jes!
Put the SHUT to the UP
@@cragerzz 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Listening 2020.....Heather is OUTSTANDING!❤️
Heather Headley is one of the most gifted singers of our time. It is such a shame that she is not recognized as the gift that she is.
She reminds me of Celine and Whitney. So unique and talented. Just discovered her after searching for a video of Andrea Bocelli singing Canto Della Terra live. Found a video where he sings the song with Heather and it blew me away.
i discovered her after searching a video of Andreea Bocelli , named vivo per lei . she is so good
6yrs later..... found her the same way
to all you naysayers, let's remember that this is the BODYGUARD musical...she's not trying to mimic or copy Whitney Houston, she's playing the character from BODYGUARD...also, she is never gonna be Whitney...and furthermore, let's remember that Whitney didn't originate this song either - DOLLY DID...each person will give it their own spin and they ALL perform it beautifully in their own, artistic, way! :) END RANT! :)
you just preached #pointblankandthe. truth
You said it!!!!
Yeah I think your points were MADE a couple years ago....Heather took a chance and it didn't work out
Close down the thread. You said what needed to be said! Speak it!
Mark Conroy Dolly did a SMART choice giving it to Whitney because she owned that shit haha when people think of that song they don't think of no damn Dolly they think of Whitney f who wrote Whitney made that damn song lol and my girl Headly did beautiful with her vocals
3:24 how does she sing that whole line in one breath!? Omg
Quite a bit of training, is how.
It's funny how people who probably have no musical training say someone is flat. As someone with lots of musical training, I will go on record saying she is NOT flat and this is a breathtaking performance. I'm seeing the show in 2 weeks and from this performance it will probably be the theatrical viewing performance of my year. I love Heather, seen her in both The Lion King and Aida, and followed her recording career. Folks, she's not portraying Whitney, she's portraying Rachel. Stop comparing.
She killed it 😍😍😍😍😍✨✨ idc what y'all say .. Nobody gonna sound just like Whitney but SHE KILLED IT
Absolutely beautiful and gorgeous
She was so exquisite singing at the Andrea Bocelli concert on December 12th! She had the audience on their feet!
+Raymond Sherbaum, then you missed this gloomy gus who was totally unamused! Great voice, and she deserves praise. This song is absolutely suited for her voice. However nobody (ok, maybe a few) should take on judy and I didnt enjoy her updated urban version of "over there rainbow"
+bearcub17055 I was not suggesting that anyone could improve on Judy's version by any stretch of the imagination! I was merely stating that for her particular version, she did a stellar job!
Beautiful!!!!
Heather is the most underrated performer of her time. I am in awe of her beautiful voice
Beautiful she took her time and did it her way. executed well.
You know what is more admirable? It is that in any moment she tried to impersonate Whitney. She could give her own interpretation. I have been following her since I have founded out her and Andrea Bocceli in a duet.
me too. Incredible voice !
I found her in the Lion King Musical
One of the most beautiful voices with what appears with no effort. Truly angelic
Her projection at 4:18 was amazing! Talented lady
very much agree she is a very technical singer, gorgeous voice
That falsetto chest flip is impressive
One of the best renditions of this song. Amazing performance by Heather :)
Just Beautiful!! Why did I just learn about this awesome singer??
i always thought she was suppose to be the next whitney Houston..She never got the credit she deserve..But i see someone saw her talent for her to pay tribute to Whitney
You cannot compare both girls. However, I do respect that Heather respected Whitney as one of her heroes.
Never will be one to compare! Facts. But bravo Heather
They are both amazing/great singers. Whitney had the Clive Davis super hype machine + super producers behind her while Heather took the regular singer route that involves musicals & broadway.
John Carbon no offense to Whitney, but she couldn’t sing that song long term due to her personal demons, but she did the best version of it for sure. But, this woman is a triple threat!
@John Carbon Both of them are great vocalists. No one is better than another. Art does not compare.
This kind of emotional and spiritual genius is a rare gift to the world. Thank you.
AWESOME! Puts her own thumbprint on the song while maintaining integrity of past performers. Don't compare....just listening and fall in love with this voice....POWERFUL!!
See another example of Heathers power by watching "In My Mind."
Outstanding lady who gives a beautiful performance. Heather did it her way. Perfect.👏👏👏👏👏👏
One of my favorite singers of all time
This is the best rendering of the song after Whitney Houston , that is for sure. She is among the best vocalists in America. She has a superb control of the voice. God bless her. Great
you know, i've watched other people singing this, and i've not cried, until i watch heather, what an outstanding performance
She made this her song - just an incredible talent - she is under rated - the bigger the song the more she excels
lets stop down grading one for the other..Whitney was a great singer so Is heather..beautiful sista..Love this women..
What a voice and talent. I first saw Heather Headly in Aida on Broadway NY and once again in NY. Lucky I was. After That I have been following the talent she is. Unknown to some but a good Freemasons dance track titled 'In My Mind' is one of the contributions she has made.
One of best voice I had ever heard.
That initial “And Iiiiiiiiiiiii.....” in the very beginning wuz so haunting and cut thru so clear!
It was the crisp note sparkles from Whitney's voice that captivated us all. No one sings Whitney like Whitney!
Not taking anything away from the Queen Ms, Whitney Houston, Heather sound AMAZINGLY Beautiful!!!!!!
I don't know why this came across my feed but Heather Headley did that! She has an mazing voice.
Still watching in 2023... goosebumps. Such a beautiful rendition. Heather is sublime.
That was beautiful!
Yeassss!! That was a great rendition!! Heather's control is brilliant!
She slayed it! End of story!
BEAUTIFULLY DONE.....
The kind of voice you have to be born with!!!!!!!!!! You are awesome Heather.
A beautiful performance of a difficult song to perform.A spectacular rendition.Sing girl.
All I can say is Wow Heather.clap, clap, clap. :-) 2019
The hairs on my arms have only just gone done, this was absolutely beautiful. Just woah!
That's one of the best vocal performances ever... any genre... any singer. As far as her sounding like whitney... there were *moments* of tribute but the performance was all Heather. It should be a master class.
love her rendition
Yes yes! Wonderful and I loved how you made it your own baby. Good job
Oh my! Lungs of steel. She sang this song thru and thru., without attempting to imitate Whitney.
The control of her voice is flawless!
Pure magic........as good as it gets.........wow!
Wow! One of the best renditions of Whitney's version of this song that I've ever heard she sounded a lot like her. Great job!!!😊
my first time hearing her sing. she is awesome and can definitely sing that song, bar none.
stillwill2215 listen to her duet with Andrea Bocelli singing The Prayer ☺️
Actually she had some hits in the 90s ‘He is’ ‘I wish i wasnt’ etc
What a gift this lovely lady has... beyond words...Saw”Aida “ 3 times..
Many years ago.. awesome inside and out...🙏😘
She doesn't get the credit she deserves !!!!!!!
This is an amazing rendition of this song by an amazing Trinidadian woman Ms Heather Headley!!!
Amen, Amen, Amen!!! Heather is an amazing singer, who sang this song better than ANYONE else...other than Whitney, of course. Heather is one of the best singers in America...Has been singing w/ Bocelli for years. Ya think he knows an outstanding singer when he hears one?
2021 and I'm blown away by this performance!!
Whoshhh!! Literal goosebumps 🥺❤️
wtf how people can dislike it?
Amazing voice! Regardless of what other people say, the girl is talented. She may never be mainstream but hopefully she'll always have a successful career.
A simply amazing performance..........Whitney would be proud.
You mean Dolly.
I meant Whitney........lol But Dolly would be proud too. I had forgotten the song was written by Dolly who I absolutely love. No disrespect meant.........just a brain fart on my part.
And this is because she's starring in the stage play rendition of The Bodyguard, which stared Whitney Houston, so therefore as it relates to said parties, yes Whitney would be proud. He wasn't wrong.
Wow! I knew she could sing, but not like that! Still can’t understand why singers like her are not celebrated more.
Absolutely beautiful performance and beyond words; but I can say this, i felt chills hearing this song by Heather Headley
She's so underrated
Heather did an excellent cover. Made me cry because I will always think and remember Whitney and this, her signature song. R. I. P. darling.
Fabulous! This woman is an amazing PROFESSIONAL singer and Tony award winner...I love Whitney too but Heather sang her version and it was nothing FLAT about it. Haters never know what their talking about....they must be wanna bes themselves...Heather did an amazing job!!! Bravo!!!
Perfect. Just sheer perfection. i loved her in Aida but I think she just outdid herself and raised the bar even higher. She is truly magnificent. Hope this production goes TO B'way and gets her a much deserved Tony
One of the few modern singers that can actually really sing her ass off,she runs a real tight first place choice singing the prayer,if you haven't heard her sing it,YOU BETTER ASK SOMEBODY,FOR REAL
She makes it look so effortless
best rendition ever, have you realize that Caribbean artiste are popping up and slaying everywhere these days,,,,x.X big up trini meh sistrin
Fort Wayne, Indiana, is SO PROUD OF YOU!
Somebody should create a brilliant vehicle where she gets to play Whitney, Etta and Donna. Headley is a marvelous performer and has the voice and chops to pull it off.
Heather has a voice that belongs to the angels. What a very beautiful smile. I nearly weep whenever I her her sing. Can you imagine waking up to her every morning? She would sing to you/me every morning, because she loves you/me so much. Those long beautiful arms that would wrap themselves around you. And those beautiful lips that would kiss you/me every night before going to bed and kiss you/me the first thing, every morning. Heather, your gorgeous.
That's funny because she has two boys and in an interview I looked at, she says one of them can't stand her voice. That has got to be a joke.
She sounds so good and authentic
The way Heather Headley covered a MASSIVELY iconic song sung by a LEGEND, and interpreted that same song so authentically and impeccably is INCREDIBLE. Very few artists possess the talent and ability to do that.
Much respect!!! XOXOXO
Sometimes, when I’m feeling a little down, I come back to this video, and it gives me life time and time again.
Whitney was my favorite singer ever and I cried my heart out when she passed. Heather brought it all back with her amazing voice. I can't hear enough of her singing. Absolutely amazing!
Absolutely brilliant. Star of the show!
This is one of the best renditions of this song and the most close 2 Whitney soundinv
Simply AMAZING! Im difficult to impress....this lady has God given talent!
This is the BEST rendition of this song that I've heard! Miss Headley made it her OWN with her own brand of vocal gymnastics!!!
Divinely done!
Heather has an amazing voice. She is an amazing actress. Sweet Magnolias - love this show !
that was some damn good singin there,she made whitney proud i bet
