Well, Whitney didn't just sing, she touched your heart. She made you feel that she sings especially for you. I saw her live as a young man in Frankfurt in 1988 and was completely overwhelmed that a singer could do things live that most singers can't even do in a studio. She was very connected with her fans during her live concerts. And not to forget she was a beautiful woman too.
Saw her in concert 3 times in 5 nights at Wembley Arena. She as at about 90% of her best. I had previously seen her at Earls Court, where she was absolutely untouchable.
A favorite quote on her by Barbra Walters. “She only needs to stand and deliver. Whitney caresses her audience with a show so intimate that you feel you’ve witnessed the public unveiling of a soul. The show is simple. Because her talent is huge. So big that there is no room left on stage for anything other than her voice.”
"I don't know how you guys can watch this" I been a major fan since 2000 and seeing her perform still lifts my heart every time and her voice gives me strength to fight my own battles
We hardcore fans can watch it over and over because her beauty, perfect phrasing, uncomparable voice touches us, speaks to us... thus overriding the sadness of her Passing early in her life. Its bittersweet but much more sweet than bitter.
this one is the very best version Whitney did of this great song. She sung it too in the same year in Japan and I do not know wich I love more. No one can sing it better than Whitney
She had the voice that could command an audience. A beautiful voice that brings tears to my eyes. The greatest love of all, is my all time favourite. It just grabs your heart, and the emotions start running. Taken too soon 😪
The Media Killed Her.... Whitney should be alive today like Mariah Carey getting her flowers.... Whitney was our Gift and we misused it...God took it back.... RIP Nippy
It's sad but Whitney wasn't as strong as we thought she was . Janet , Mariah , Madonna thank God was stronger and their still here touring and sane. Do u think the stress of hiding her sexuality pushed her or when Robin left ?
@@miltoncarl5405 I don't think what was brought out about DeDe WarwIck should've stayed buried Whitney wasn't here to Explain what happened...I hate people with Hear Say evidence
There is this performance of whitney that shows her rare skill of singing i will always love you in rain forest concert with pavarotti and guess what? Whitney sings Opera.
You’re not alone feeling that deep emotion. Her vocals are on another level and make me teary eyed and often give me goosebumps. Her rendition of the, Star Spangled Banner, at one of our Super Bowl events is the best I’ve heard by any performer. I highly recommend watching it. Thanks for a great reaction! ✌🏻🙂✌🏻
Your reaction was one of the purest sincerest reactions I have seen in a while. I was one of the biggest fans of WH when she did a duet with Jermaine Jackson's album If You Say My Eyes Are Beautiful 1984 and I fell in love with her instantly. I couldn't find enough information on this young woman, and then her Self titled Debut Album came out in 1985 and when I heard it on the radio, I said that is her, this is the lady I have been looking for, and I immediately bought the Album the day it was released. I locked myself in the room and started reading the words while listening to her sing, and I was so overjoyed, inspired, and wanted to sing. I had to the opportunity to meet her 2x backstage and I was so flabbergasted each time. She was my vocal teacher in my head and her untimely passing on my birthday on Feb.11, 2012, I was so devastated that a songbird was quieted. I have never ever heard a more melodious and mastered voice since. I appreciate your reaction her voice stirs something down in your soul and it will make you cry and you don't know why, but it felt needed and only her voice can invoke a feeling like that for me.
Beautifully written... Whitney was an original, rare, and pure talent. All she needed to do was stand there and sing. Her music was her thing a story that was being to to you, and only you; tbough you were surrounded by hundreds of people. Not a day goes by I do not miss her talent, her presence, and her smile. Rest well DIVA.
Thank you for posting - I completely empathise with your reaction. 'I get so emotional' watching this. I've always loved Whitney, but from the very first time I heard this performance about ten years ago I can honestly say nothing else matches it. This is the greatest live vocal performance I have ever heard ❤ 🇬🇧
This is the performance that catapulted Whitney to my number one favorite artist! I saw it when it originally debuted and I've loved her ever since! This performance always touches me deeply as well. She was an incredible voice and an incredible performer. The best!
Wow! I’m Not even the biggest WH fav, but you made me tear up as well. You’re such a beautiful empathic soul and not afraid to be brutally open and honest. You’ll go amazingly far in this channel and life itself I promise. You have a great speaking voice as well.
Thank you so much, that definitely gives me a boost! Glad you enjoyed the videos so far and I'll definitely act on some of your recommendations. Thanks again!
Whitney brings back so many memories and feelings. There are times when I just can't listen to her because she hits me so deep inside. I can't handle it.😭 Let's keep her art and legacy alive. #whitneyisthebest
🔥🔥❣❣❤❤ I'm always speechless she's incredible and deeply missed. I listen to her all the time over and over and it never gets old to me. Love her R.I.P Mrs. Whitney Houston ❤❤
Check out “I am changing” 1986. It’s an absolute gem of a performance by Whitney and arguably one of, if not, the best live performance vocally I’ve heard from her.
This performance reminds me of Sinatra. Formal dress, full orchestra. Center stage all alone. This is where she entered that realm of Sinatra, Elvis, Streissand, Garland etc.
It's amazing that someone who sang with the voice of an Angel directly from heaven had so many demons. Whitney Houston has three performances that I think are out of this world that no one will ever be able to touch. This one, one moment in time live at the Grammys, and her Duo songs from the Grammys including one of the rare times she sang and I am telling you on a big stage
Another really emotional performance by Whitney, one which I've always found even more so than this, is her performance of "All The Man I Need" Live At HBO's Welcome Home Heroes, which was in front of an audience filled with the 5 US armed services. Extraordinary. Also her performance of America's National Anthem at the 1991 Super Bowl is highly emotional in an entirely different way.
I'm interested to hear the national anthem because, with respect, it has no meaning to me and I don't even really like it as a piece of music (because I'm from the UK, the only time I hear it is when you guys win medals at the Olympics - no offence!). So I'm interested to see if she can sing something like that AND make me interested!
And I've previously reacted to All The Man That I Need on Arsenio, and A Song For You at the Welcome Home Heroes concert, so I would love to hear the former song at the latter concert!
@@bridgethegapreactions You then should also react to "The Star Spangled Banner As You've Never Heard It" first which will be give you a little perspective on the meaning of and behind the words. It's not entirely accurate, but the basics of it are correct.
Was blessed to be able to see her when she broke out around 1986 at the Greek theater. Simply incomparable! No wonder even Osama bin Laden was said to have been smitten by her!
Yes, this was epic…that concert literally gave me eargasms when I heard it. I’ve never heard anyone sing like that, and it seemed so easy. She was young with such a powerful and seemingly endless voice. Saving all my love, You give good love, and How will I know are simply out of this world. The combinations and breath control in How will I know…brought the spirit in my house. She was one of Gods gifts!
Not gonna lie, I woulda killed to watch your reaction to this song the second time. You took your time with that one and really dug in. It would have been a good video.
One moment in time at the grammys 1989 is phenomenal. You give good love at the soul train awards is phenomenal. All at once at the American music awards as well I am changing (live 1986) is stellar. I have more performance but ill drop them another time.
@@bridgethegapreactions If thats the case, i got you then. Where do broken hearts go at AMAS 1988 All the man i need at the welcome homes heros concert This day live at VH1 In return live at yokohama arena 1991
@@bridgethegapreactions yes One Moment In Time will transform and transcend you. Sheer power, presence and awe. My heart flutters watching it and I get chills every time.
And your comment on how it hurts to see her performances now she's gone is so right and yet when she was at her best it overshadows the sadness - as she sings in one of her songs - the ride was worth the fall!
Awesome reaction, I always get the feels with this one and it's satisfying to watch someone else get the same feels. As you said, some of her songs are painful to watch as a Whitney fan because it reminds you of what an incredible person and talent the world had and then lost. I'll always be grateful that I got to see her live in 2009, which was after her decline and at the beginning of her unfortunately rough comeback. The vocals weren't the same, but she was still herself and in a good place at that time and she still 100% had that incredible emotive ability. I'm looking forward to your reaction to another viewer's request for How Will I Know live at MTV! Totally different vibe, but it's so amazing to see the talent, confidence, and stage presence already on full display at such a young age!
You're very lucky to have seen her perform! I always say that we should see these legends before it's too late (not seeing Bowie is my big regret). Did she talk a lot on stage and interact with the audience, or was it mainly about the songs?
@@bridgethegapreactions I'll always feel lucky for that experience! It wasn't a normal concert, it was actually her comeback appearance on Good Morning America in Central Park in New York when her last album debuted, so she only did a few songs. She also talked with the hosts and brought her daughter up on stage to perform with her at one point. She was deeply touched at how much love the fans had for her, and at one point she got really choked up while directing some lyrics of "I Look to You" toward her mother, who was off to the side. While of course I'd love to have seen her in her prime, this was a really special, very human experience that I wouldn't give up for anything
I'm glad you discovered Whitney...she is definitely one of a kind! Here's a video that I hardly ever see reactions to, but I think it's one of her best live performances: ruclips.net/user/results?search_query=whitney+didn%27t+we+almost+have+it+all+live. I would enjoy seeing you react to this one. Thanks for your videos!
I think her 2nd best live performance ever was when she first came out and performed How Will I Know at the MTV music awards 1986. She was only 23 and dominated the stage just by herself. ruclips.net/video/tZG1Ys6pUEI/видео.html
I'll make that the next Whitney I do! Definitely need to check out her 80s performances as I love some of those 80s hits like I Wanna Dance With Somebody, How Will I Know, One Moment In Time... I've never previously listened to Whitney on purpose but some of those songs are unavoidable (and great). Thanks for the recommendation!
What do you say? This song is NOT SAD!!! THis song explain the most important message for every one! The message: The importants LOVE ist the LOVE TO YOURSELF! THis to understand is so important because it makes possible to understand what love is. So many people got a trauma in the first years of their live and lost the selfconfindence. This song could be a good medizin for this people. If you do not love yourself you have nothing to give in love to other people
Absolutely. I'm averaging about one a week. Any other similar artists I might need to check out? I've heard some obscure things that would surprise you, but missed some massive artists too
You are to watch the one live from Wembley in 1986! The greatest love of all, that one will make you bawl!! It is actually better than this one! This one is from 1990. Please watch the one from Wembley, you will most definitely agree with me!
Her live performance of CCWinans Dont Cry For Me has just been released on its fullness for the first time ever (probably due to her 60th anniversary 4 days ago) We don't know how long it will last on line so I suggest you watch it and react to it too, it's a jewel that needs to be appreciate it. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/iBuXfRf3oJY/видео.html
They just put up the complete performance of Whitney "don't cry for me"... Very big deal for the true Whitney fans. Hopefully you will read this. Be the first to react. I like your reactions, that's why I'm telling you.
I'll get to this as soon as I can! Just finished filming my reaction to her full Brunei 1996 show and need to edit that together today. Thanks so much for letting me know about this
I've had a look on Twitter and a lot of people are saying Cissy Houston is actually still with us! Gave me a chance to look her up and start learning about her - sounds like a fascinating lady. Anyone that sang with Elvis has hero status for me already. I need to go deeper into Whitney's history
Ooh yeah, let's throw some 60s in! I love aretha but don't know this one. I always hoped this channel would organically go other places than the 90s, so let's do it
I certainly put withney and Celine on the same category has the best female singer of all time she was exceptional the only thing that peoples tends to forget is that is that withney had her exceptional voice only for just around 12 years because after that she fell into drugs and alcohol after that even her main producer David Foster have said that she didn’t have the voice that she had before here’s a video of him saying what the problem was with her voice ruclips.net/video/g7_PsUr4Dxw/видео.html
it is okay to be ` Celine fan but this had nothing to do with her drugs and Celine could never deliver er a song like this..NEVER...SHE WILL DISAGREE WITH YOU and she has from her mouth...
@@odumosuolusegun2781 it’s ok to be a withney fan I saw her once in my life…..did you??but I can be objective about her life 🤷♂️if you want to put your head in the sand that is your prerogative clearly you didn’t watch the video that i have provided for you about withney voice David foster knows what he’s talking about he recorded almost all her biggest hits he’s her main record producer
@@odumosuolusegun2781 And when you say that Celine can never delivered a song like withney well I would say to you that withney could never deliver a song from Celine just like her it’s normal they are 2 distinct voices 🤷♂️when withney died the family of withney has asked Celine to sing live the final song in her memory at the tv special when she died here’s the results of that performance you can see that Celine has tremendous respect for withney ruclips.net/video/ac4w4kHx7ho/видео.html
@@lenstgelais7376 No David isn’t her main producer. Her first two albums were not produced by David. And yes I saw Whitney live. Celine isn’t on the same level as Whitney but then again nobody is on Whitney’s level. Bringing up Whitney’s personal issues doesn’t prove anything except your desperately trying to show how much better you think Celine is but it’s not working. We aren’t talking about her personal choices, we are talking about her vocal abilities. Plus it wasn’t Whitney’s drugs but it was her cigarette smoking that did the damage to her voice. You have to remember that Whitney walked away from singing for 7 years and during that time she smokes cigarettes even more than before. David isn’t Whitney’s friend, he can’t comment on her personal life . All he knows is about her professional life. Would you like it if someone you only worked with tries to assume that you were doing damage to your career because of your personal life? Do you know how ignorant you sound? Celine can’t connect like Whitney could. But the thing is that even at the end, Whitney still sang live…can’t say that about Celine can you?
@@jobuck879 first 1) I wasn’t talking to you about seeing withney second 2) I will certainly take a person opinion like David foster who work with her for a decade over your at least him knows what he is talking about not you 3third) Granted smoking doesn’t help I can agree to that but you’ve got to give that when you are doing for years crack cocaine smoking it that also can damage her voice and if you denie that well you simply don’t know what you are talking about 4fourth) My friend as I said in my first comment I have put Celine and withney on the same level those 2 are the greatest female singers of all times and if you don’t agree to that well that’s your prerogative that’s all it’s only your opinion and I respect your opinion now good day 🥰✌️
Just sharing, All I can say in the US music industry its a common practice of recording companies to enhance the singers voice to sound good to listeners. Even Divas are not spared from that practice. have you not notice some singers sound differently during live performances. Some cannot replicate the same vocal power or other skillsets like vocal runs, belting, etc. try watching them when they perform outside the control of their recording company (studio and live performances). You will hear their natural voice and get their skill set level
Nobody still, could ever sing like Whitney
Well, Whitney didn't just sing, she touched your heart. She made you feel that she sings especially for you. I saw her live as a young man in Frankfurt in 1988 and was completely overwhelmed that a singer could do things live that most singers can't even do in a studio. She was very connected with her fans during her live concerts. And not to forget she was a beautiful woman too.
Yessssss so true
god does not repeat his miracles, there will never be another whitney.
The most beautiful woman in the world with an extraordinary voice...the one and only Ms Whitney Elizabeth Houston ❤️
Saw her in concert 3 times in 5 nights at Wembley Arena. She as at about 90% of her best. I had previously seen her at Earls Court, where she was absolutely untouchable.

Here's a video that I hardly ever see reactions to, but I think it's one of her best live performances: ruclips.net/user/results?search_query=whitney+didn%27t+we+almost+have+it+all+live. I would enjoy seeing you react to this one. Thanks for your videos!
OK, looks great- thank you!
Is there a specific live performance of this that would be best? I'm going through all the Whitney requests and making a big list. Thanks!
Great reaction once again, I agree this performance is excellent but also bittersweet. Thanks for posting.
Bless your heart ❤️!!!And I felt it to And I get teary-eyed to!
Her mother Cissy Houston really trained whitney vocally
I think her 2nd best live performance ever was when she first came out and performed How Will I Know at the MTV music awards 1986. She was only 23 and dominated the stage just by herself. ruclips.net/video/tZG1Ys6pUEI/видео.html
I'll make that the next Whitney I do! Definitely need to check out her 80s performances as I love some of those 80s hits like I Wanna Dance With Somebody, How Will I Know, One Moment In Time... I've never previously listened to Whitney on purpose but some of those songs are unavoidable (and great). Thanks for the recommendation!
What do you say? This song is NOT SAD!!! THis song explain the most important message for every one! The message: The importants LOVE ist the LOVE TO YOURSELF! THis to understand is so important because it makes possible to understand what love is. So many people got a trauma in the first years of their live and lost the selfconfindence. This song could be a good medizin for this people. If you do not love yourself you have nothing to give in love to other people
I can’t hear her music anymore because it was such a shame, a tragic loss
❤❤❤
💕✌️
You should react to her singing Don’t Cry For Me…
Oh my Don’t Cry for me 💜💜💜
more live reaction to Whitney.
Yes
Absolutely. I'm averaging about one a week. Any other similar artists I might need to check out? I've heard some obscure things that would surprise you, but missed some massive artists too
You are to watch the one live from Wembley in 1986! The greatest love of all, that one will make you bawl!! It is actually better than this one! This one is from 1990. Please watch the one from Wembley, you will most definitely agree with me!
The greatest love of all live version. The one where she sings to the kid....please react!!!!
Her live performance of CCWinans Dont Cry For Me has just been released on its fullness for the first time ever (probably due to her 60th anniversary 4 days ago) We don't know how long it will last on line so I suggest you watch it and react to it too, it's a jewel that needs to be appreciate it. Here is the link:

Where is your reaction to her ONE MOMENT IN TIME performance from the grammys? You are really missing out. TRUST ME
They just put up the complete performance of Whitney "don't cry for me"... Very big deal for the true Whitney fans. Hopefully you will read this. Be the first to react. I like your reactions, that's why I'm telling you.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'll get to this as soon as I can! Just finished filming my reaction to her full Brunei 1996 show and need to edit that together today. Thanks so much for letting me know about this
Whitney Houston's mother just past away
I've had a look on Twitter and a lot of people are saying Cissy Houston is actually still with us! Gave me a chance to look her up and start learning about her - sounds like a fascinating lady. Anyone that sang with Elvis has hero status for me already. I need to go deeper into Whitney's history
@@bridgethegapreactions Whitney Houston's mother sang background vocals for almost everyone.
I'm gonna have to look again because there is many videos on RUclips saying that she past away.
Aretha Franklin "ain't no way" and the background vocals is cissy Houston it's just beautiful. that would be a good reaction.
Ooh yeah, let's throw some 60s in! I love aretha but don't know this one. I always hoped this channel would organically go other places than the 90s, so let's do it
I certainly put withney and Celine on the same category has the best female singer of all time she was exceptional the only thing that peoples tends to forget is that is that withney had her exceptional voice only for just around 12 years because after that she fell into drugs and alcohol after that even her main producer David Foster have said that she didn’t have the voice that she had before here’s a video of him saying what the problem was with her voice ruclips.net/video/g7_PsUr4Dxw/видео.html
it is okay to be ` Celine fan but this had nothing to do with her drugs and Celine could never deliver er a song like this..NEVER...SHE WILL DISAGREE WITH YOU and she has from her mouth...
@@odumosuolusegun2781 it’s ok to be a withney fan I saw her once in my life…..did you??but I can be objective about her life 🤷♂️if you want to put your head in the sand that is your prerogative clearly you didn’t watch the video that i have provided for you about withney voice David foster knows what he’s talking about he recorded almost all her biggest hits he’s her main record producer
@@odumosuolusegun2781 And when you say that Celine can never delivered a song like withney well I would say to you that withney could never deliver a song from Celine just like her it’s normal they are 2 distinct voices 🤷♂️when withney died the family of withney has asked Celine to sing live the final song in her memory at the tv special when she died here’s the results of that performance you can see that Celine has tremendous respect for withney ruclips.net/video/ac4w4kHx7ho/видео.html
@@lenstgelais7376 No David isn’t her main producer. Her first two albums were not produced by David. And yes I saw Whitney live. Celine isn’t on the same level as Whitney but then again nobody is on Whitney’s level. Bringing up Whitney’s personal issues doesn’t prove anything except your desperately trying to show how much better you think Celine is but it’s not working. We aren’t talking about her personal choices, we are talking about her vocal abilities. Plus it wasn’t Whitney’s drugs but it was her cigarette smoking that did the damage to her voice. You have to remember that Whitney walked away from singing for 7 years and during that time she smokes cigarettes even more than before. David isn’t Whitney’s friend, he can’t comment on her personal life . All he knows is about her professional life. Would you like it if someone you only worked with tries to assume that you were doing damage to your career because of your personal life? Do you know how ignorant you sound? Celine can’t connect like Whitney could. But the thing is that even at the end, Whitney still sang live…can’t say that about Celine can you?
@@jobuck879 first 1) I wasn’t talking to you about seeing withney second 2) I will certainly take a person opinion like David foster who work with her for a decade over your at least him knows what he is talking about not you 3third) Granted smoking doesn’t help I can agree to that but you’ve got to give that when you are doing for years crack cocaine smoking it that also can damage her voice and if you denie that well you simply don’t know what you are talking about 4fourth) My friend as I said in my first comment I have put Celine and withney on the same level those 2 are the greatest female singers of all times and if you don’t agree to that well that’s your prerogative that’s all it’s only your opinion and I respect your opinion now good day 🥰✌️
You need to do Luther vandoss
Who can top that performance?
We need more of late 80’s, early 90’s Whitney. Please react ton”one moment in time” : ruclips.net/video/7L9EMe-7Z4w/видео.html
I definitely plan to do some 80s reactions soon. I'll start with your suggestions!
@@bridgethegapreactions ohh!! Thank you!!🙌🏻🙌🏻
Would be better to show the face of Whitney while she is singing for to get the full expression
Copyright infringement lol
Just sharing, All I can say in the US music industry its a common practice of recording companies to enhance the singers voice to sound good to listeners. Even Divas are not spared from that practice. have you not notice some singers sound differently during live performances. Some cannot replicate the same vocal power or other skillsets like vocal runs, belting, etc. try watching them when they perform outside the control of their recording company (studio and live performances). You will hear their natural voice and get their skill set level
It's 80s soul/R&B...not 90s
How anyone could dare compare her to some pop singers like Mariah and Celine is beyond me.
