SHE SANG THE WHOLE THING SITTING DOWN…that is crazy hard and crazy good. Well done, Ms. JHUD

[@massimoturrini9146]

Yes indeed she is very good as always but you say she is crazy Probably because you don't know that sitting down is easier to sing

[@yeetyeet5095]

@@massimoturrini9146 it’s literally harder wdym lmao your diaphragm can’t expand as much as standing

[@audreyfletcher2918]

​@@yeetyeet5095 U R absolutely correct it is harder to sing when u r sitting or laying vs standing and singing

Sitting, standing, or however, “Ms JHud” simply has it that way😊!! Great voice. . . Amazing talent!!💓👏🏽👍🏽

Those background singers are viscious😭

The man, George, has been with her since they were on American Idol together.

Absolutely terrifying.. 💀💀💀

Is that Davon Fleming from her team on The Voice?

[@markgleenferrer8410]

The microphone is at half meter distance, but her voice still powerful.

[@briana410]

And seated

[@geraldsonofgod]

Bra! that lady could have the microphone half a mile away and still her voice would be powerful. Unbelievable.

[@mateusleigue]

Its because she’s a icon a legend and a princes of the soul

Amazing Backing vocals!!!

[@Das644]

Was looking for this

[@lisajackson3743]

It floors me every time. In here waving my arms around. It amazes me that her sister created this beautiful song when she was going through. Everything about this song, the backstory, the emotion, the whistle notes, the bridge, the musical outtro. This is the most soulful song I have ever heard.

[@sarahbond9196]

I can't tell you how many times I listened to this song. Not everyone can sing this song in it's full potential with the difficult bridges. JHud can!! Even sitting down. JHud, God has definitely blessed her with a very powerful gift, her voice. I feel it in my insides and gut, every time!! There is only a few who can reach and touch my whole being and even bring me to tears. I salute JHud and the Legendary, Aretha Franklin!!

[@diezfrancis]

JHud is very skillfull and such a powerful singer. Amber Riley AKA Mercedes Jones on Glee also did great with this song. Try listening to her if you haven't yet.

[@authenticallykyle]

She was born to sing ❤

[@juansaenz7497]

What a shame that this voice is not the norm on radio. Absolutely amazing!! She can perform in the 50s, till today. Timeless voice and talent. Wish people would understand the difference between true talent like Ms. Hudson and the junk on the radio. I look forward to many more years of her music.

[@Illyuuuhhh]

The fact that she is just sitting its marvelously amazing

[@Sixdays_aweek]

She is not of this world.

Neither have I! I thought the same thing. It wasn’t just Ms. Houston’s highs. Her runs were stupid in that song also! She murdered that background!

[@elainemeyer5062]

👍 I hit the play button on this today by mistake, but a good one nonetheless imo. J. Hud has a great voice and style that doesn’t quite fully come across in this performance, although I enjoy it enough to save and continue to watch - esp bc of the background vocalists! To date, my all time favorite of hers was the tribute performance to Denzel Washington for the movie Malcolm X, in which she sang ‘A Change is Gonna Come’. At the time she was younger (and thinner) and not sitting as in this one. The amount of emotion, passion, feeling and soulfulness was so powerful that it looked like there were tears in Washington’s eyes. Her entire execution was flawless 👏❗️IDK why there are so many negative comments about THIS performance, but to me it really boils down to being a matter of personal taste and preference. I noticed a lot of comparisons between her and other singers (covering this song and/or in general) - saying someone else is/was THE ‘best’ of them. This is not a fair statement but a biased one, and if someone makes a remark like this, then they should at least add the words ‘in my opinion’ somewhere in their comment since taste in music IS subjective❗️

[@misstrendee6732]
