- Whitney Houston performs in San Francisco, California 1986 (Greatest Love Tour)
Listen to a young Whitney Houston performing for a sold-out crowd in San Francisco, California. Houston is at her vocal best here, tackling fast-paced songs such as Michael Jackson's I Wanna Be Starting Somethin and ballads such as You Give Good Love with equal finesse. One definite highlight of the concert is Houston's riveting performance of the Dreamgirls song, I Am Changing, which the singer stretches out to ten minutes of pure goose bump-inducing singing. Watch out also for her lovely rendition of Happy Birthday which she dedicated to her father, as well as for one of her first performances of the worldwide hit, I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me).

As Mariah once said of Whitney, “The first time I heard Whitney’s voice, I was mesmerized like the rest of the world. I was captivated by the power in her range and her unique ability to wrap a lyric in an emotion.”
G aqqwaccfff
This is because she doesn't know what people feel when they hear her voice
@@DaniloStrever I simple google search will let you know how they felt about her voice including Beyoncé, Shania, Brandy, Christina Aguilera, etc. you don’t have to downplay one person to uplift another. She literally was complimenting her talent please let this tired beef die. They loved one another.
@@DaniloStrever Mariah know she has a beautiful voice, but she said it because she know how incredible was Whitney.
There are only 2 types of people in the world, Whitney fans and people who have not heard this performance.
Thank you to whomever thought to hit the record button thirty-six years ago. This entire concert is such a gift to younger generations. I was only six when she sang this, but I’m in absolute awe of this performance as a forty-two year old.
Nobody will ever sing like this. This ladys voice is like heaven on earth plus 20 mill angels gracing us with their presence
Her voice is 8th wonder of the world 🌎
She is*
*throws phone. phone charger. outlet. sheet rock. whole house out the window* 😫😫🙌🏾✨✨✨✨Yasss MA’AM Got Damn It!!!
WHITNEY....SAANNGGGGG this damn song with so much CONTROL, POWER & CONVICTION!! She OWNED this song as if it was originally hers.
Whitney Elizabeth Houston you are truly missed.
My Queen. THE VOICE. ❣️

You better preach!!
Me too
This is vocal perfection
I agree, vocal control is magnificent, miss her a lot.
No other vocalist male or female could match Whitney's voice ,she is the greatest.this performance was out of this planet
Mariah is a better vocalist
@@honestperson3042 Nope
@@Mehapes7777 This is your opinion. With 56 seconds vocally destroys any singer from the past, present and future ruclips.net/video/RFKNcwsgdUo/видео.html
If we talk in live performances, If It's over Grammy is still technically and vocally unbeatable
@@honestperson3042 disagree honey.. and she's too technique for me
Matter of opinion
better tina turner
she straight clowning! I've never heard her give this sustained fire from start to finish
I laugh at anyone who says they sing better than Whitney Houston.......no one better
This has to be THE greatest live vocal performance to ever take place on planet Earth. I've NEVER heard anyone sing with this kind of power, cadence, velocity, beauty, control and passion all combined in ONE VOICE--LIVE or in a STUDIO RECORDING.
Whitney absolutely BULLIED this song! Body slammed it from the floor to the ceiling, from the windows to the muthafuckin walls! Flung it around like a cheap dollar store ragdoll, then, for the grand finale, went straight for the vitals to claim it as hers FOREVER!
Her vocals here are superhuman level. Like Storm from the X-Men, backed by an army of hovering angels. Like Troy (Brad Pitt movie) going into battle. No one and I mean NOOOO OOONNNEEE can touch this performance. Not even Jennifer Holiday herself!
I just wish there was video footage of this particular performance. I want to see how she looked and what she was wearing. You just know the veins in her neck were popping out like crazy while she was hitting and holding those notes!
I feel you all are overreacting. To say no one better is just ignorance.
Philip Cohen there is NO ONE better then Whitney Elizabeth Houston.
Nobody did it like Whitney. Her dexterity across multiple genres is a testament to that. She also took god with her everywhere she went and everywhere she sang. She was destined to be the best bringing all of that to the table and the unshakable confidence she had in her instrument.
@@philipcohen958 Show me better! You can't!!!
Vocally unmatched in too many ways to mention. The simple fact is she is the greatest singer ever...past, present, and future.
I love watching this
Tecnicamente tanben
SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG WHITNEY!!!!!! I'm not sure I've EVER heard Whitney SANG quite like this before!! #LawdJesus #Help
My favourite Whitney performances are from 86-87 and then 90-91. This is one of them!!
Greatest vocalist of all times BY FAR
Take your time baby!!! I saw her in concert in 1994 and I was never the same!!!
That's so awesome. I would've love to see her. I know you had goosebumps
Those long notes are perfect.
Tone. The tone...
I dont know what key she sang I Am Changing in but, I do know her range and power seems other worldly. Crystal clear, loud, big, and dynamically beautiful.
Wow I have not heard a better voice.
Terrence Malbrough She sang it in B, but she usually sings it in C and ends with C#
@@bishbish3103 we dod not know what keys she sang it, the evidence points more to C because of footage released by Arista itself...the blue dress and the red dress are all C
In Vocal Industry...this woman is GODZILLA, The Queen of Vocal Monster!!. GOOSEBUMPS
I would define Whitneys voice as the most precious gift on the world of arts
4:29 Her voice transitioned into opera goddess 🙌🏿😂
Rest in power The VOICE 👑❤
Whomever stops on this performance and really listens to all the the things this amazing singer does with her voice has got to be overwhelmed. This is like 9 minutes and 17 seconds of a thrilling vocal rollercoaster, I have never been so excited while listening to a singer perform. It's like "What is she gonna do next"? Why is this performance not on her live album? Thank God for RUclips!
12jayboo her live album sucks, the only two good performances were OMIT at the grammys (her best ever live for me) and TGLOA at arista, that disc doesn't showcase the magic in whitney's voice, songs like All at once and Where do broke hearts go deserved to be there so people can see why she is the voice
12jayboo That is the genuis of Whitney Houston, in her prime years.
They didn’t truly search for her best performances. I honestly could’ve found better performances in 30 minutes of searching.
@@kylesummers2462 1 min of searching
She's the greatest
Goosebumps all over!!! I can't even believe what I heard just now.
I know who she is, and now I know why they reference her-THE VOICE!
No better than whitney !!!! she is the best ever !!!
Untouched. Whitney your voice lives on
No singer EVER! Her voice here had no limits she dived low, then climbed high. Back and forth, belting long thunderous vibratos, that would have my fillings come loose. Sorry other singers, you have your place too, but at the top is this woman. She was overly blessed. All hail the EMPRESS of vocals.
Epic,timeless,untouched performance and voice.she is the very best we had.
LMAO that audience member at 0:26 really said "SANG BITCH" xD
LMFA Wtf
So harshly
LMFAOOOOO
Must be some uneducated uncivilised dhead
4:28 that SLAYED me!
my favorite rendition of this song performed by Nippy
This was the best show she has ever done… OUT OF THIS WORLD… I wish there is some lost recording somewhere
Only Whitney could turn a song from a musical into a soul-shaking gospel song. Thank you for posting.
This is TALENT in all its splendor 😭
No one can't compare to this lady.. Many women will come but no one's is closer to her talent..... Powerful and angelical at the same time..
"walking, walking down the wrong road
there ain't nothing, there's nothing you're gonna find,
no, no, no, no no
all of those years, of darkness
see can, really,
make you
blind"
This is how I prefer the chorus, honestly. Her on-the-spot reworking of the lyrics was phenomenally perfect.
What were they originally?
@@jamaalshelton6793 Walking down the wrong road / there's nothing I couldn't find / all of the years of darkness / can make a person blind / but now I can see..."
Whitney Houston and Sarah Vaunghan are the best.
AND ELLA
For anyone who doesn't know or is in doubt that Whitney is The Voice then this is the performance to refer them to.
& if anybody has never had the pleasure of being in a black church where gospel is sang like this every Sunday....you are missing out! This is straight Sunday Morning Church, Take Me To The King, Hallelujah singing!
Karen Clark Sheard gives it to you straight just like this!! She isn't a Whitney, but she and Twinkie (in her prime) are pretty close!
Ebou Howard yes. Karen is disgustingly talented and anointed. (And Twinkie in her day). But yes you’re Karen at times has me jumping just like Whitney does.
Joash Scott ooo Im not putting them on the same level. Whitney is out of this world, the best.
@Joash Scott I'm just as big a fan of Whitney as you, but cut it out. Karen has plenty of great performances that highlights her amazing abilities. We can celebrate other artist without taking away from another!.... Oan, Whitney reminds me a lot of Tramaine Hawkins just on another level!
@Joash Scott smh!.. First, I'm well aware this is a Whitney video. Thanks for the unnecessary reminder. Secondly, as I stated before. We can celebrate Whitney without putting down other artists. Lastly, anyone with an ear for music can hear the vocal similarities between Tramaine and Whitney as well as Whitney and CeCe! Not that they are on the same vocal level, but their singing styles are very similar. No argument needed from here. I have a real life and arguing on RUclips regarding a singer isn't productive to it!
Never heard this before. LOVE IT!!!
God please give us Whitney and take all of Hollywood in her place ♥️♥️♥️♥️ your voice lives on Queen
👏👏👏👏👏👏
This amazing talented woman. I don't listen to her much because I miss her so very much. It is 2019 and I am still crying whenever I hear her singing. 😥😥😥
Whitney Houston's voice is my favorite type of art I come up with most of the time. My mom has a bunch of her CDs Whitney sold to her before anybody else.
out of this world
I live for everything at 4:44😍😍😍😍
Jesus, this woman! My God, what a voice!!!
I don’t even know what Just happened here. What did my ears just hear! #Amazing She is simply the best!!!
I had the opportunity of watching her singing in Madrid when her 2nd album..... Amazing.. It's one of my memories...
Perfection!!
Fucking legendary performance i think this is the best live vocal performance by a female artist Beyoncé,MaryJ,Hudson and Aretha none of them could ever touch this right here Whitney was something else on the mic🤯🤯🤯 mind blowing
To the people who try...and I do mean try....to say that Glennis is equaled to Whitney...let Glennis attempt to do this song...I'm sure 100% of you would tap Glennis on her shoulder and ask her to have several seats....there is no way Glennis could even be in the same galaxy as Whitney...THE VOICE will live forever through her majestic vocals....
Yes! Glennis would need to have herself a stadium full of seats. This has to be THE greatest live vocal performance to ever take place on planet Earth. I've NEVER heard anyone sing with this kind of power, cadence, velocity, beauty, control and passion all combined in ONE VOICE--LIVE or in a STUDIO RECORDING.
Whitney absolutely BULLIED this song! Body slammed it from the floor to the ceiling, from the windows to the muthafuckin walls! Flung it around like a cheap dollar store ragdoll, then, for the grand finale, went straight for the vitals to claim it as hers FOREVER!
Her vocals here are superhuman level. Like Storm from the X-Men, backed by an army of hovering angels. Like Troy (Brad Pitt movie) going into battle. No one and I mean NOOOO OOONNNEEE can touch this performance. Not even Jennifer Holiday herself!
I just wish there was video footage of this particular performance. I want to see how she looked and what she was wearing. You just know the veins in her neck were popping out like crazy while she was hitting and holding those notes!
Glennis studies her video, she even phrases her words the same way. She has a nice voice, but girl get your own style, there will only be one Whitney.
People who say they are at the same level don’t even know Whitney at all… They’ve watched probably 2, 3 maximum live videos of her and most of the times it wasn’t even during her prime… I laugh so bad when I see people thrilled by her All The Man That I Need performance on the HBO saying it is her best… God if they only knew…. 🤣🤣🤣 that live is nothing compared to this one!!! No one touches Whitney
@Alex Thats true, All the Man that I need on the HBO its not even in Whitney's top 10 performances.
😆👍
Oh my Jesus
This gave me chills!
Whitney the best

Lyrics
Look at me
Look at me
I am changing, trying every way I can
I am changing, I'll be better than I am
I'm trying to find a way to understand
But I need you, I need you
I need a hand
I am changing, seeing everything so clear
I am changing, I am going to start right now, right here
I am hoping to work it out, and I know that I can
But I need you, I need a hand
All my life, I've been a fool
Who said I could do it all alone
How many good friends have I already lost
How many dark nights have I known
Walking down that wrong road
There was nothing I could find
All those years of darkness
Can make a person blind
But now I can see
I am changing, trying every way I can
I am changing, I'll be better than I am
But I need a friend, to help me start all over again
Oh, that would be just fine
'Cause this time I am, this time I am
I am changing, gonna get my life together now
I am changing, yes, I know how
I'm going to start again, I'm leaving my past behind
I'll change my life, I'll make a vow
And nothing's going to stop me now
How come this is not part of her live album?
alot of performances isntt

What do you call that technique in 6:00 in "I Am?"
A controlled cracking of the voice. LOL
Mixed voice belting with vibrato
a resonant C#5 followed by a resonant sustained B4 lol. it sounds like she cracked a bit when she did that little trill, but it was fine
That is also called a vocal cry
@@newyorkzboy119 That's belting and yes, very controlled vibrato with a vocal cry.

What album did she record this song?
no album it's just a cover, thats why its best to listen to live performances than records

@@Andre-pn1iu it’s from the Broadway musical Dreamgirls. I believe Jennifer Holliday sang it originally.
@@bryanbaker9945 Thank you!
Do you have a live version of this? :D Thanks!
stop playin lol
WTF LOL
Bruh Whitney THE VOICE Houston didn't need no studio
She just needed a goddamn mic to destroy the entire music industry ❤
It's all live dummy
Guess no Pringles bottle then.....blood is blood to the swamp....
Did the person @0.26 say "sang it" or "sang B#%*" ? I gots to know lol
I thought it was the second thing you said at first too lol
She' said " Sing Nippy " which of course is Whitney's nickname.
Lol 3:57 Christina Aguilera
tasiawood no thats all whitney and only whitney!
Lmfao dont mind the other person, i get it, she really be doing that
That would be one of Christina Aguilera's vocal inspiration which is no other than the legendary Whitney Houston The mother
Christina has always credited the legendary Whitney Houston as one of her main vocal influences.
No.. That's Whitney
Listening to other clips from this concert I am convinced that this was one of the very very best vocal nights of Whitney Houston's entire life.
true. operatic headvoice. resonant belts (up to that G5). fucking stamina
Gray sang Whitney in her prime supported notes like no other
It’s just divine
Actually, it was just one of the night in 1986 tour.
I agree but you might mean best night ever recorded….
