Yea but cissy played a major role in her life. And Whitney sounded so much like her mother. Cuz that’s who she studied and mimic. Only cissy could come close to her daughter.
The arrangement fits her voice so well! The beautiful phrasing, rich tone, sudden glides and riffs while keeping it elegant! Aunt Dionne is definitely a woman of musical eloquence!
@@mrs.jackson5872 Oh I am very sure? Dionne has some of the hardest songs to sing of all time, but she makes it look extremely easy. Dionne doesn't overcompensate, she gives the song exactly what it needs but that does not mean she didn't have range because she did!!! She mastered the art of singing, matter of fact her entire family mastered the art of how to sing
I have to come listen to her version at least once a month if not twice. I’m in love with the way she told the story and emoted every word with grace and technique! 🥰
Mariah, Celine were the generation after Ms Warwick, Ms Franklin and Ms Knight and etc. They were just little tots and some of them were not even born when Ms Warwick and her contemporaries made their first impression on the music industry. They are definitely on the same class as Ms Labelle , Warwick and etc but were from different generations.
The generation of singers born around 1940 is the finest. Humility, efficiency and elegance put this generation above the younger. In addition, the music in the 60's and 70's was pure gold. So far from the current vulgarity and ugliness.
É uma voz única no mundo. Nunca ouvi voz igual, vc não precisa ver a cantora pra saber quem esta cantando. Timbre único, ou vc já ouviu alguém com essa voz ?
@@godlyvermillion5798 tbh she doesn't do bad singing it. She's good singing this song. In fact I consider when other singers sing others songs that its the highest form of complements and how the song impacts society and social life
@Tobias Brown Absolutely incorrect- Dionne in the 60’s wigs through to 90’s Whitney also wore many wigs most black singers do. The chemicals In relaxers and harsh lighting are not good for black hair
ugh,, not a big fan of this cover. I'm going back to my childhood crush who originally sings this, Michael Jackson! (Runs back to Michael) Sorry Dionne fans!
This just doesn’t sound good or musically to me. I hate to comment this, but I’d feel uneasy if no one agreed. The singing sounds painful and stiff, like she can hardly get it up and out. It doesn’t sound good to me.
Those mannerisms. I see where Whitney got a lot of her style and presence
Of course😉
Whitney studied her cousin Dionne very closely. Cissy & Dionne were phenomenal teachers
Mostly definitely
Both had a very maternal soulful presence. God rest beautiful Whitney and Michael.
Yea but cissy played a major role in her life. And Whitney sounded so much like her mother. Cuz that’s who she studied and mimic. Only cissy could come close to her daughter.
Big fan of Dionne here...one of my fav singers...I have her songs in my phone all the time
The arrangement fits her voice so well! The beautiful phrasing, rich tone, sudden glides and riffs while keeping it elegant! Aunt Dionne is definitely a woman of musical eloquence!
Wow! Amazing! Why am I just now seeing and hearing about this in the year 2023?!
omg this is so different from the original michael version, yet still good in its own right
Dionne can phrase a song like few can. a singers singer.
dionne's vocals were just beautiful. I'd love to see her on a judging panel
Her and Whitney favor so much ❤
Back when music was so good that the even the “oldies” artists would could a new song.
OOOOO that was magical and powerful. I felt static all over. my my my. Viva Dionne!
A most brilliant vocalist , she can do anything with her voice .
you sure?

@@mariahyohannes ok gurl I’m not reading all dat cause here she sounds like me tryna sing MJ song 😭💀
@@mrs.jackson5872 🤣😂🤣😭😭
@@mrs.jackson5872 Obviously you know nothing about singing and technique. She killed this in the BEST way.
Dionne is one of the greatest singers of all time. She is a classic! True talent! Brian Taylor Oceanside CA
One can see she and Whitney is related by voice and beauty
Yes you can 😁
I have to come listen to her version at least once a month if not twice. I’m in love with the way she told the story and emoted every word with grace and technique! 🥰
Uhm…this doesn’t sound good
i like how she cant hit those high notes in the chorus, she lowers her key instead and still sound loud and clear
I agree
@@mrs.jackson5872 it’s clear you have a bias but to each there own.
@@geminikid1617 im not being bias , this song is jus not for her .
The remarkable Madame Dionne Warwick.
Dionne shows the young and old, how it's done :)
she rock this. looking like her young Cuz, no young cuz looks like her
Whitney is sitting right on the front row for this perform watching her big cousin. You can see her if you look closely clapping!
Kennedy Honors for MS. DIONNE WARWICK! It's been long enough
She said, "Go head it's alright to make that change!" It's alright to make a change for the better y'all! :)
This woman is awesome!!!
Yay Dionne, ICON!
Greatest balladeer of all time.
She sings with ease ...she doesn't rush 🔥✋✌ she makes songs make sense 🔥💋😍👌
Yes you are right.....Such effortless powerful singing.
Well said!

Splendide interprétation: un exploit !

WONDERFUULLL SHES MAKES THE SONG ON HER OWN;;;
Damn, Damn, Damn! This is Gooooooooooooooooooooood! Queen Dionne! loooooooooove you! One of the best versions!
she is fabulous
Dionne, vous avez un immense talent !
One of the best talent ever❤
Nice interpretation.
I forgot the original melody of the song after hearing Dionne's.
Dionne ALWAYS make brilliance look elegantly effortless - what a treasure! thx for posting! :-)
Beautiful and outstanding... Dionne is fantastic singer...
She just makes me want to burst into tears here, Wow.
Vocalità Unica...Talento strepitoso: Dionne Warwick è sempre capace di emozionare!
The singers of old were just special. I believe Celine Dion and Mariah Carey, and their contemporaries are the last of that generation.
Adele and Amy Winehouse belong to that rare kind of superb vocalists.
The difference is...they ARE vocalists. And not wannabes like all the others.
@@rubenquaino1952 And Whitney, Gladys Knight, Aretha amm.

She is the one i call the "Iron Lady of Soul"
why is she the “iron lady?”
bc iron is dark@@richardivand
@@watergreg5836 you’re idiotic.
Sing Mrs.Dionne.

Love this song, one of Michael's greatest songs!

Soul train awards
bravissima una delle voci piu' belle mai ascoltate.

No they don't..Thank goodness . .Please I only want to hear Michael's version..
@@godlyvermillion5798 hater
Cool
2024❤
The night Whitney and Bobby became love birds
Yessssssss
Noooooo!!!!
Better than the original. Sorry MJ.
This arrangement have Ms. Cissy written over even though she prob had no hand
Right. Ms dionne does not need a hand from Ms. Cissy or nobody🙂
She has a slight look of whitney houston here
Looks just like Whitney up there.
Better than the original 🔥💯
at 1:06 mark, that man seems bored and unimpressed....
05f2021 📡📡☀✒🐺💎👍👏💋unD
I like this better than the original, no disrespect to MJ
Great!
This is original...
Martina G. Levak off course not. Michael Jackson’s version is the original. It was written by Siedah Garrett for the BAD album in 1987-88.
No one does this better than Michael... Dionne can sing but she needs to leave this song alone before they band it permanently.. mnmmhhh
@@godlyvermillion5798 tbh she doesn't do bad singing it. She's good singing this song. In fact I consider when other singers sing others songs that its the highest form of complements and how the song impacts society and social life
Something sounds off here, I dont know if its her or the arrangement.
It's both ...
@@godlyvermillion5798 if you watch closely, you can see Quincy Jones looking off
Dionne is wearing one of Whitney’s old wigs.
@Tobias Brown Absolutely incorrect- Dionne in the 60’s wigs through to 90’s Whitney also wore many wigs most black singers do. The chemicals In relaxers and harsh lighting are not good for black hair
Whitney’s MOMMA.
Whitney's Cousin... don't ever disrespect #Cissy #Houston
🙄
This was just wrong...I barely recognized this song . .. Dionne has a beautiful voice but it's just not for this song. ..Wow..
Not feeling this one.
ugh,, not a big fan of this cover. I'm going back to my childhood crush who originally sings this, Michael Jackson! (Runs back to Michael) Sorry Dionne fans!
Cigarettes Dionne her a rapper instead of a singer.
This just doesn’t sound good or musically to me. I hate to comment this, but I’d feel uneasy if no one agreed. The singing sounds painful and stiff, like she can hardly get it up and out. It doesn’t sound good to me.
I love Dionne Warwick , but I agree with you. She is one of the greatest vocalist of all time, but here she sounds off. This rendition is too radical.
I’m saying it’s not giving people need to stop trying sing Michaels songs…
Smoking had its toll on her voice. If she had not smoked, she would have been able to kill this.
