They are both gone now, difficult to lose such remarkable talents. Nancy was such a beautiful person, through and through; she lived to age 81 and was one of my very favorite singers for as long as I can remember. The above honor to her was richly deserved, RIP, Nancy (12-13-18) we will never forget you.
Oh Nancy.... That's all I can say... The classiest Songstylist I have ever heard. One of my favorites by her is a song titled "Streetrunner". R.I.P Miss Nancy Wilson 🎙💙
Nancy knew how to tell a story with the song she sang, she made you feel like you were right there in the song, feeling those emotions, sad or happy, raw or soothing, she could do it all. Tremendous talent and a very nice lady, we will NEVER forget her, she has been about my favorite female vocalist for a very long time. We're so grateful we have her recordings which will live in our hearts forever. RIP, Nancy, thank you for what you gave us for so many, many years -- rest well and sleep warm!
Ms. WILSON, doesn't look like any youth of today, THEY look like her, she came first and paved the way for them. She's a TREASURE, classy n elegance we don't see n hear today. That lady from the moment she stood, you knew she was special n when she spoke... we don't see that kind of elegance today. FANCY Ms.WILSON in class of her own. Thank God for Ms.N.W. love her madly
So Brilliantly Beautiful, Classy and very Sophisticated, Ms. Nancy Wilson is Gorgeous!!! R.I.P.......The Late Beautiful and Talented Ms. Whitney Houston.
She had the chops to not only sing beautifully but to tell a story , to move you to the exact emotion she was feeling . A true class act and a true artist . No ego , just a good soul with god given talent that she shared with all of us ! Thank you Miss Nancy Wilson ! I’m so glad she was recognized like this in her lifetime , she deserved to know how all of us felt about her !
These two beautiful, and elegant ladies.. There will never be voices like this ever again...Timeless! Rest In Wonderful Love Ms Wilson and Houston!!🙏🏽💕𗀧
Yall ever wonder why WH does not have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame? Given the fact that she was the most successful Black female artist in history. Broke all kinds of records and was very beautiful.
She didn't want to pay them for it. I think it's so stupid that they offer you a star as an "honor" and then say "oh by the way, this honor costs money"...
This is a beautiful woman ~ Total Class and Elegance ~ take note newbies ~ THIS is how you act ~ R.I.P. Beautiful Nancy Wilson , my all time favorite ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nancy's Grace, Beauty, Gifting and enormous contribution to music is undeniable. She hails in he company of greats such as Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington. Thank You Nancy We love and will sorely Miss YOU!
SHE WAS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONGSTRESS AND STYLIST. RIP MS. NANCY WILSON ANOTHER QUEEN TRANSITION ON TO HEAVEN WITH THE LIKES OF OTHER QUEENS LIKE ARETHA FRANKLIN. SING MY BEAUTIFUL SISTAHS IN THE HEAVENLY CHOIR
her generation...her era...that crop of legends that opened doors for Whitney, are but a handful now, if that. And the thing that makes me the saddest, is that their shoes cant be filled because they just dont make 'em like her or Sarah or Ella or Aretha..or a Nina Simone, anymore. Now, you just have a lot of decent singers. But the thing that set apart, those ladies that I mentioned, is how versatile they were. They could sing ANYTHING. So, they're gone..and you wont get better singers than those ladies, Whitney included. Its sad, man. Thank God, for RUclips.
Nancy was naturally STUNNING! She was elegant, very classy, and effortlessly sexy... May they both rest in peace...Nancy and Whitney, your talents are missed dearly.
Wilsons influence on Houston is evident, its such a pity that Whitney was made a slave to peforming vocal acrobatics, instead of being allowed to take her maginificent voice to other (less profitable) genres that Wilson took her voice to. I have always preferred Whitneys lower register to the vocal gymnastics which became her signature; and I waited in vain for Whitney to sing The Blues, Jazz, & Gospel old skool.
Wow, I always thought that in her 40's Whitney should have done a standards album, the Beatles songbook, Gershwin songbook, a la Ella Fitzgerald style... to hear Whitney cover the classics. I know there was that Mad TV parody of "Whitney screws up the classics", but boy if Whitney was still with us.. She could have also comeback like Barbra Streisand with the a Broadway album. I hope Mariah Carey takes note. Life isn't forever and her Voice is an incredible Gift. She should do a standards and classic album too. Fortunately, Mariah Carey has covered a few other artist's songs ("I Want to Know What Love is", "Endless Love", "Against All Odds", "I'll be There", "I Still Believe", etc ) and has found success, but we need an entire album.
itgetseasierlessitry I completely agree. Whitney had such a beautiful timbre and tone to her voice that sometimes got lost in her vocal 'gymnastics'. She did cover some American jazz and pop classics. She also performed some Broadway (which she reportedly loved) songs. But I always wished she had made one entire album devoted to each musical genre. I also wish she had taken better care of herself and her instrument.
Even her speaking voice has a mesmerizing diction~🎺🎷🖤

Whitney's pantsuit and Miss Nancy's dresses and gowns: elegant, appropriate, sexy and modest.
"Names like Ella, Sarah, Aretha and of course Nancy" well honey guess what you're in that league too beautiful soul. RIP legend 🥺💜💜
Such grace from Nancy & Whitney.
Oh Nancy....
That's all I can say...
The classiest Songstylist
I have ever heard.
One of my favorites by her is a song titled "Streetrunner".
R.I.P Miss Nancy Wilson 🎙💙
The INCOMPARABLE Miss Nancy Wilson!!!! GORGEOUS!!! And my LOVELY Whitney HOUSTON!!! This video is wonderful!

Thank GOD, there is only one Nancy Wilson!!! She has really taken GREAT care of herself. She has such style and grace.
That was a beautiful on-stage exchange between the 2 legends.
The legendary Nancy Wilson! A Timeless artist. One of Marvin Gaye's favourite singers.
Nancy's voice just got more powerful with age..
Yall ever wonder why WH does not have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame? Given the fact that she was the most successful Black female artist in history. Broke all kinds of records and was very beautiful.
She didn’t want it
You have to pay for it, perhaps she didn’t care to have one
She didn't play their game, which is why they killed her voice, her body and, after death, her progeny and her reputation.
Great observation
She didn't want to pay them for it. I think it's so stupid that they offer you a star as an "honor" and then say "oh by the way, this honor costs money"...
One beautiful, elegant and classy woman honoring another beautiful, elegant and classy woman!
This is a beautiful woman ~ Total Class and Elegance ~ take note newbies ~ THIS is how you act ~

Beautiful gown, Fancy Nancy!
Royalty in Jazz Mrs. Nancy Wilson she stood the test of time. It is Finished.....Well done Mrs Wilson come Rest.
The speech Nancy gave said so much in so few words. A lesson to anyone accepting an award in whatever category.
Thats awesome, they have the same type of beauty to me. Just that classy beauty.
who better to be honored than the incomproble miss wilson hitney had 2 give it up
A great great lady, a great voice and interpreter of a song. Simply unique! Privileged to have seen her in concert in London.
R.I.P great Nancy Wilson 😞❤
Now that's what i call a graceful lady indeed.
R.I.P. Ms Whitney and Ms Nancy , love you both!
Rip both legends
That musical montage! Beautiful!!😢
A class act, ms. Nancy...rip Whitney
I also noticed something, Nancy and Phylicia Rashad both have the same mannerisms and the way they speak is so similar
To think that Whitney would be being honored years later.
The INCOMPARABLE NANCY WILSON!!!! What a classy, sassy, elegant lady….. thank you God for blessing us with this beautiful talent. 🤎
What a lady, what a woman!
OMG...I soo remember watching this! awesome post!

Farewell Ms. Wilson. You will always be missed.

GREATNESS is only way to describe Nancy Wilson
Nancy is one of my favorite singers. So is Chicago's very own, Joan Collaso.
Ok I might be mistaken here but did Nancy Wilson make a guest appearance on the Cosby show?

Class personified! No one did it like Nancy!
LOVE IT!!!

She did live but never on recordings

itgetseasierlessitry wilson was able to have a family and have balance from hollywood
itgetseasierlessitry I completely agree. Whitney had such a beautiful timbre and tone to her voice that sometimes got lost in her vocal 'gymnastics'.

Price of fame. She chose to live a wild life and not tame it to preserve God's gift like Aretha Franklin and Nancy Wilson
