For those who hate her.. Please sing.. I don't think u sound better thab ari..

[@ItsXavierBoyd]

Right

[@diplup9313]

Lol all the people who say she is bad at singing is just so weird cus she is so talented and I don't understand how she isn't a good singer...

[@diplup9313]

FrontYardWrestling99 kid get off KZbin, this is the reason why there is an age restriction

[@diplup9313]

FrontYardWrestling99 please grow up I don't wanna be rude to you but I am having to because your being rude to me .-.

[@thesassygirls52]

still trying to figure out how she got dislikes ?

[@chachifaavae5088]

they liked it so much, they turned there computer upside down and liked it

[@ryuwtnb]

chachi faavae or Ipad, but disable auto rotate

[@yannie523]

[@diplup9313]

yannie523 wtf did ū even say...

[@diplup9313]

🎊Musa PPP🎊 U*

[@santiagolegnazzi8059]

WHAT THE FUCK THAT PIANO, MY GOSH

[@alfredodiaz6287]

Ari fan since before she was known 💖💖 I can't get over how she sings

[@nick_osin]

can't believe we performed at the same stage..

[@nxdiuh]

All this Ariana bashing. I think this was really good, especially considering she was sick here

[@matthewrandell5055]

That outfit is really cute. Also the pianist was having fun :')

[@watermalin]

she has honestly improved so freaking much. her new cover of this on her honeymoon tour fucking slayed. she did okay on all the past performances, but she honestly did so much better.

[@cwlnq2000]

she actually had better vocal technique when she was 14 tho...

[@watermalin]

i don't think so. i mean she had very good pronunciation, but beside from that, ariana's voice has improved a lot. she uses vibrato now, and you can she doesn't sing with her nose nearly as much, and her tone is more pure.

[@alexkenzie4875]

People hating on Ariana for being successful and not being the best vocalist in the world. GO HATE ON ONE DIRECTION, GO HATE ON JUSTIN BIEBER, GO HATE ON NICKI MINAJ. They're not even close to how talented Ariana is, and they're more popular than her. Ariana provides talent to our generation. Criticize people who really have no talent, not her.

[@tainaromanoaguiar5697]

Exactly! Wow, u read my mind!

[@alessiadenis]

Saying not to hate her and hate on someone else is also hating!

[@tainaromanoaguiar5697]

i dont hate any artist

[@martinal6026]

I'd say they're equally as popular now. Have you seen Ariana's instagram/Twitter followers?

[@annikalena99]

actually all these people are very talented. U know nothing. You should hate one no one. I love Ari by the way. But for real, everyone has a different taste in music. Some thing this is annoying, some like it. That doesn't change the fact how giftet and talented she is. Same as Nicki Minaj. She is a very good rapper and freestyler. And she can ALSO sing. Bet you can't do both. Of course these days you can use lots of autotune but go and watch her old freestyles when none used to know her. So think before you speak :D and excuse my english

[@TheLala0077]

If you compare this to her cover at her Own tour you can see she improved so much!!!

[@meganleave487]

I think you mean her pianist has improved? lmao

[@cormantarantino2015]

there is no doubt if she sings "i will always love you" by whitney houston, it'll be AWESOME!!!!

[@cormantarantino2015]

yeah i know she did it and it was AWESOME!!!! i know whitney houston would be so happy & proud of her! i know i am i love you ariana!!!!

[@maciematthews2167]

why yall hating cant yall just be positive for once

[@paulyna01]

Piano fails :´( She is amazing!

[@lilbeebado]

I love how u can hear frankie saying "yas woooh" at 0:06

[@alexa-jd8ws]

2:07 that hand knew she was slayin

[@isobel7848]

Her voice is beautiful

[@loly4677]

her voice is PERFECT and beautiful

[@isobel7848]

I know

[@WhiteHighHeels06]

She hits notes i wish i could 😫😫

[@camiloween]

3:36 hahaha great backing vocals! really good to have audience like that! xD

[@hannahceccon8422]

UM...... I'm sorry but saying that she's "slutty" is such a dumb comment I don't even understand. Ariana Grande is one of, if not, the best vocalists at the moment. She sings songs that sound like they are from the '50s and '60s with a '90s rnb twist and its good. She is very conservative for being her age and I completely admire her musical talent and the way she carries herself as a person. And saying she has no talent or she has a bad range is like saying water isn't wet, completely stupid and wrong. Please keep your bad comments to yourself! Thank you! She is amazing!

[@zuzameyer5149]

Can we just appreciate the pianist Joshua Stephen Kartes? This jazzy arrangement was AMAZING

[@Conrri]

Not a fan of Ariana, but I have to say this girl can sing!

[@juliawood-ellies6713]

The fact that she was sick and she still sounded amazing!

[@kevinsalazar314]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW! ♥

[@nanofora7610]

very cute with natural makeup. omg ur so awesome ariana

[@EmbraceTheInevitable]

What is natural makeup?

[@FounderPilot]

[@jazandriz]

She has so much talent. Gifted.

[@ashley-gd9yt]

If you compare this to the one at the White House, you can see she improved so much more since then. I'm proud of her. :)

[@simontamang6554]

can never get enough of ari.thats butter that comes out from her mouth😘😘😘

[@AlexandraO6]

FOKEJE LUCKY PEOPLE WHO CHOSE TO GO THIS NIGHT

[@annemwezep]

Kidding me pianoman? 😂 She is perf

[@ashhkills]

seeing Ariana sing now is just amazing!

[@ds403]

the guy playing the piano is like he is playing a different song

[@josiahsmith2937]

Ok, who is on piano? He/she is KILLING it

[@animalcrossinglife3497]

Wow she improved so much in one year, and she is still fabulous here

[@italimusic]

little did she know she would be singing this for the president.

[@rjamal889]

Only Ariana can do justice to a Whitney song....R.I.P Ms. Houston

[@UsherFan05]

Why is everyone hating... this song is HARD and the fact that she's holding her own should say a lot... No she's not whitney or Mariah but damn can she live? she did a SOLID job!

[@laetitialucia1051]

She's seriously the best singer on the earth

[@emmasmith4352]

I am one of her biggest fans but I'm wondering y she pronounces her words correctly in this version but in the other version u have no idea what she's saying! LOL 😜

[@brynns.2157]

She mesmerizes me when she sings.

[@andreasalas4310]

All arianators coming here for fetus

[@julissaortiz926]

Jajajajajajaja el pianista se paso 🎹

[@WumbMasta]

The fact that people are comparing her to Mariah's talent is enough proof that she is legit. Ariana isn't perfect, but she is damn good. And in today's industry where singing talent usually isn't rewarded, everybody should be rooting for her.

[@thaolehai8979]

The piano player made me very happy :))

[@unicornamzynisa2625]

Don't expect Ariana to be perfect at everything OK?! No she's not Mariah or Whitney but she's Ariana don't flipping compare her to them SHES ARIANA THE QUEEN OF ALL ARIANATORS :)

[@VanillaCupcakes13]

What does she say in the middle of the song at 1:39?

[@elenamayamusic]

"Modulation right? Yeah" (It's when the piano transitions from one key/tonality to another) :)

[@elliehealey208]

Stop sharing your hate, you're bullying mine and the rest of our fanbases idol. It truly hurts because us arianators are one big family and when one if is gets hurt the rest of us feel it. Ariana is amazing and I couldn't ask for a better role model.

[@FindingJoohwangie]

She was 19 here OMG

[@crybabyjane3801]

what did ari say to the pianist?

[@zuzulkaaaa5862]

It 's really amazing 💜

[@glitterygabby]

while you're sitting here hating on Ariana, she's performing for the president so she still wins ha bYeeeE

[@midnitefairy]

Ariana has a sweet pleasant sounding voice so this song, or any Whitney Houston songs for that matter are not for her. Sorry.

[@abreviaharvey1600]

her voice is great and she sounds great while singing this so u dont know anything

[@midnitefairy]

abrevia harvey Lol ok I guess it must b true bc u say so yes? haha I kno enough thanks, and what I know is she doesn't have the voice for this song period. She sings good but not great like Whitney Houston.

[@abreviaharvey1600]

midnitefairy HAHA :-I #1: i never said she sang any thing like Whitney Houston #2: great is an understatement for Whitney Houston #3: sure you know enough ...just not in talent #4: and point blank period i think she does my opinion so take that and run with it ...tf

[@midnitefairy]

Don't matter, she doesn't, u wouldn't b defending ariana if u didn't so u can take that anywhere 2nd, Yea I do what makes u an expert exactly? Lol 3rd what u think doesnt mean- a damn thing to me, u have no credentials and just bc u think what u do doesn't mean ur ur right. Tf lol

[@midnitefairy]

Harry Styles It is high pitched, but is not strong to me.

[@katgrande1704]

I have nothing if I don't have Ariana Grande! I can't take if I don't hear her singing! I love her more than anything! She's MY EVERYTHING! Ariana Grande` I love you

[@mhaeraz2945]

That My Queen...

[@laurinecousin9511]

I love you 😘

[@annshanette92]

I like piano it's different. It fits

[@TheJcw007]

This girl gives me chills dam, ok she needs to take lessons, in jazz vocals yes. I hear a lot of haters out here, stop its ugly. if you cant do what shes doing.....QUIET IT UP THEN>

[@siennagrace6089]

So beautiful

[@222dmf]

Near studio quality performance in a rather rough outdoor? show setting. This girl is amazing. Take it easy on the piano player. This is just thrown together and like one commenter offered, he's having to make up for a whole backup band and orchestra. In addition did you notice she was verbally prompting him for the modulation. They may have put this together in less than 15 minutes. In the moment, his fingers grabbed what he had. A little bluesy, jazzy, piano man voicings at times but hey, not fair to compare it with what you can get after weeks in a studio. I remember the very first time I heard Whitney.....I was certain she would be a huge star. Ariana Grande ..... my ears and heart are saying the same thing. Pure magic.

[@Lina-zz1ix]

Guys the week she did this she was performing everywhere her voice was tired stop complaining

[@KyraBowlby]

I listened to Mariah Carey and I asked my dad if it was Ariana 😂 she has such a great voice. I love studying her voice since I wanna be a singer when I grow up ✌️ But she is my inspiration I love her so much. 😍😍😍

[@shaziai32]

Why is she soo amazing?!

[@leegraham8861]

Her performance at the White House was magnificent, IMO better than Whitney. Her innocent appearance rivals that of Judy Garland's "Over The Rainbow". She is too good to settle for MTV pop. She emotionally captivated the entire audience. Mr. President, what's up, how are you!!!

[@cosy]

sounds like mustve been hard to sing to the kinda weird piano but she did amazing

[@aprilmela]

And she never knew she would be singing this in front of the president :') I'm so happy for her. I love you ariana forever and always

[@myra8670]

TO ALL THE HATERS, I'D LIKE TO HEAR U SING LIKE THIS

[@arianagrande7869-m5d]

I so jealous of her voice she's sooooooooo talented!!! ❤

[@0611lunaanna]

She has the cutest little face in this video

[@MChawynboy]

You are ALWAYS gonna have haters no matter what, which is sad that they cannot just accept her for what she is and that is an amazing young singer, You go Ariana, let your light shine!!! Aloha From Hawaii.....

[@Harryizmine]

Whitney would have been so so so proud :')

[@MariaIti]

I love the way that people think that singers that are 'new' can't sing as well as older singers, or that they are trying to copy them. Everyone has influences.

[@CCH098]

No Matter What People Are Gonna Get Compared To Others, Famous or Not ... So That Doesn't Really Change How Original Her Voice Is Since Nobody's Voice Is The Same

[@SOLEILsmileyLUV]

Whitney would be so proud. I love Whitney and Ariana. (: And Ariana had Mariah's tone but she doesn't sound like like Mariah she sounds like Ariana.

[@hollywood9ozz]

She does sound a little bit like Mariah, it's a huge compliment tho.. But their tone is different. Ariana's voice is amazing i can listen to her all day.

[@0oYCRo0]

Wow, not everyone gives me chills or makes me feel like wanting to cry, but she does just that. So that, to me, is amazing talent.

[@lottiea7337]

So Amazing...Ari Is So Talented!

[@chynnajago9440]

I love this and can't understand how anyone would thumbs it down. Hello just listen to her talent! Dam!

[@Anna-ej3ct]

👍

[@skyehiggins4505]

For such a small girl her voice is so powerful yet so sweet! Defo my favourite singer!!!!!!! Love you Ari

[@crystalchung3970]

i got goosebumps while she was singing LOVE U ARIANA GRANDE!! ur my favorite artist in the world!!!

[@naledimphago2040]

Ariana Grande ❤!! She's truly talented_my role model! Heart You Ari!!

[@annabish7624]

She always does amazing with this song 💜

[@theresagiardina2890]

She just has a beautiful voice period. Not many people can do Whitney covers

[@sarahcummingham6994]

Because The Are Jealous They Will Never Be Able To Sing As Amazing As Her.

[@milliehancock8643]

Thats an achievement to be able to sing such a powerful song. Well done.

[@kingsl4yerrr]

[@LovelyLopez143]

[@StevenWrighification]

[@やまこみぽりん]

[@wwhs98]

[@lilynguyen1175]

Shivers down my spine for the whole 4 minutes and 16 seconds.

[@aryamflores6290]

[@osnapitsez]

She said @ 1:40 "Modulations, yeah"

[@ZoeB1997.]

She is beyond amazing! Words cant describe her voice!
