      ....and I personally think Whitney didn't sing specific people songs (other female singers) out of respect.... because she knew she would definitely carry it to a whole new unreachable level making you forget about the original.
      She just had a God giving gift that connected to music like no other!

    While I am always amazed when I watch clips of Whitney, it always brings a bit of sadness bec she was gone too soon. Like Michael Jackson, I think she passed away just as it seemed they were getting their careers back on track. Her voice, her talent will forever be missed. We are lucky that there are all these clips floating around to remind us of her greatness.

    This is just another amazing example of why Whitney is the "voice", gold standard, eighth wonder of the world.
    Here it is she covers a song by Donnie Hathaway and instantly makes it her own. Among other things, her magnetic emotive ability, magical runs, make believe and one of a kind tone, stage presence and legendary control are on display in this performance.
    I agree with you Kasian that she was dangerous when it comes to her incredible ability to make her covers of other artists' songs her own through her God given ability. Like you, if I were a singer and heard that she was going to cover my hit song, I would be a nervous wreck, because I know she is going to " knock it out of the park"! Also, her inherent charisma and stunningly natural beauty did not hurt, but contributed significantly to her having the total package - something other singers only dreamed of!!
    As I have said numerous times before, God carefully crafted her " pipes ( vocals)" and gifted them to her. As I have also said before in other comments, she is the most talented and gifted singer/ musician that not only lived, but will ever live - I truly believe this. Let me add that she was not only a singer dxta ordinaire, but an extremely talented musician. This she has demonstrated in several ways including producing music and actually directing backing bands during live performances. In addition, there are instances in which she would volunteer ,even demand adjustments to studio productions. One such case is when she insisted that she wanted horns in the studio recording of " I learned from the best", for which the live version was shot in Germany.
    Kasian, I would be very happy if you an do a reaction to " In Return ( live)" by Whitney. I think that performance clearly demonstrates her amazing vocal ability.
    I must also add that I enjoy your reactions, which are hilarious at times, but which demonstrates the emotions Whitney can evoke in us through her incredible talent. Her unmatched head voice coupled with her chocolate coated tone and make believe emotive ability evoke similar reactions from me. The things she can do with that voice and head voice in particular, makes me wonder how can one be so talented. But then I quickly remind myself that she was divinely blessed!!
    Whitney forever!! Thank you for your unmatched and amazing musical legacy.
    I will always remember and love you!!
