I am honored to have been mentored as a teenager by Cissy Houston. The background performers you see in this video starting from left to right are: Deirdre Tuck-Corley [that's me] VonEva Simms, and Rennelle Stafford-Martin. When I was 18 years old Cissy asked me to perform with the Sweet Inspirstions while Myrna was on maternity leave. Cissy has taught me so much. I am blessed that she's my mentor and friend.

You can tell Whitney learned a lot from her mother, as a Whitney fan I noticed a lot of the things she used to do vocally, especially in her early years. I always wondered how on earth could anyone like that and I see it now, she was born with an amazing gift and had her mother to help her perfect it.

God is amazing. Her delivery in this performance is 100% is her telling her audience how she needs the Lord in life. This a gospel delivery in pop culture. Lyrics, delivery, mannerisms. You can see and feel the joy and happiness she has performing to the audience. She's allowing her spirit to take control of the moment. God is speaking through her.

There are theories that Theresa Graves is Whitney's real mother. But also that Dionne may be her mother also I've also believe Theresa may be Whitney's real mother, there's alot that points that way. But I just watched old Duonne videos ..........especially singing gospel. Another under rated really under rated singer. Whitney looked alot like young Dionne also.. Many do not know Whitney had that same overbite as Dionne, but had alot of dental work to correct it.. She had a fall early in her singing career and broke her front teeth.. That may be why she was hiding it on an Arsenal Hall show.. And has alott of Dionnes style the runs etc. I think that's why Cissy let her run the funeral Anyway, lots and lots of family secrets that ultimately broke Whitney's heart. Very sad. I loved loved loooooved Whitney Houston . There's so much to say about that beautiful woman. I'll be digging into it deeper, respectfully in the next few weeks. Just want to help expose what was breaking her hear, without disrespecting her family.❤. Come on over to my page.❤

You started by naming Graves, but you haven't identified her. Then, you speculated that Warwick may be Whitney's mother because of teeth structure and her participation in the funeral. Then, you returned to Graves; and although you said there is a lot of information that points to her, you didn't provide even one piece of evidence. I guess there is a theory about why Cissy Houston would claim another woman's child. What the many secrets that are no longer secrets because you know about them? @@whitneydemystified4889

I have been trying to tell people that Whitney's voice didn't come from nowhere. Imagine Cissy at Whitney's age when she hit. If she was sounding like this in her 40s...I would LOVE to hear her prior to and before her Sweet Inspiration days. Remember they were the group backing Aretha during her hit run. Cissy was so good, she earned that solo soprano note in Aint No Way. Not many people know that. Listen to how clear and easy it was for Cissy to hit that note for damn near 30 seconds each time. I think if we heard her in her younger days, we might be saying she was one of the best singers in the world. Whitney was an extension of her...shit Whitney was so powerful that she took her to studio sessions at 12. The apple does not fall far from the tree! RIP WHITNEY #THEGREATEST #THEVOICE

Her musicality is awesome! Every melody she sings connects so smoothly with each other. The way she builds the dynamic of the song is like butter

What a woman! She bestowed her legacy upon her daughter, only to lose her. And she's achieved so much in her career. It's got to hurt for her to sing and think about how Whitney used to be happy singing too. She gave birth to one of the most beautiful singers this world will ever know. And she has the same warm, captivating, and passionate voice her daughter did. Bless her heart.

Whitney got her talent from her birth mother Teresa Graves and the structure it needed from Cissy who raised her.

WOW!!! I love Cissy's rendition! I never heard anyone sing this but Ronnie! After listening to many of Cissy's recordings and hearing most of the notes of her three octave range, I know that I am listening to greatness. Whitney had a very good start from her MOM and took her singing to an even higher level!!

I simply love this song! Sang Ms. Cissy! And Whitney's voice came from her mama. The way she phrases her words, sliding into the high notes, the grit and riffs, yes! And that's what children do, we mimic our parents.

Such a shame that others in her generation received more adulation and fame. “Cissy Houston” should be a household name, not least of which because of her talented daughter, Whitney, but because of her own remarkable and stellar talent as a singer and interpreter of music. This lovely woman can sing better than any of her contemporaries. No question. We mourn her daughter and hope for only the best for Cissy and her family. God bless them all.
