People need to understand this was not a "performance" for accolades. This was a tribute from a grieving mother to her deceased daughter. She did a beautiful job especially considering the circumstances. I personally would have fallen apart. I think anyone looking to criticize need to just back away from the keyboard...

I think Cissy did great on this tribute to Whitney. For all the people saying she sounds horrible and needs to sit down. She is in her 70s and still sounds great. For once would people stop being haters. Who post heartless comments about a performance that she put her heart into. That was here daughter and I personally think she went out there and killed it in a great way.

If you’ve never been to a black American Church and heard an elder soprano sing live, especially during a funeral, you may not understand how moving such an experience is. While the voice is raspier and not the same as when they were in their twenties, the life that they’ve lived makes up for all of that. And oh what a life Sissy Houston lived. This is a beautiful tribute to your daughter, your granddaughter and now to you.

Let's start with the Queen Of Soul Ms. Aretha L. Franklin's "Ain't No Way" the entire album. The long note being held in the background is non other than Mrs. Cissy Houston. So, paying tribute to only daughter at her age is absolutely beautiful considering the circumstances.

Please believe and never get it twisted...this woman is a Gospel/Soul legend in her own right!! Yall better check her resume straight up. First of all she is a woman in her 80's and her voice and vigor is not as strong as it once was but trust her spirit in Faith has NEVER lost its power...please believe. And second of all she is a woman grieving the death of her daughter still. Some of yall bone heads will never experience what she has gone through. Again I say shame on you all who make such negative comments.

If you had a heart you would have taken that into consideration and kept your ignorant, negative comments to yourself. Some of us with hearts felt the emotion in her voice. This song nearly brought me to tears because as a mother of three daughters I don't want to even think about having to bury one. I certainly wouldn't be able to sing as well as she did.

I had no idea how good this lady was, her soprano backup for so many, is absolutely gorgeous, her range, control, inflection, true perfection.. As a soprano, I have always been frustrated, that the only way to make a living outside of Opera, for those who's best voice is in the upper range, were and still are forced to sing in alto range, which often, to me sounds more like shouting. As a young women I was regularly relegated to ohs and ahs rather than words, When I found a small group where I got to sing WORDS, I was thrilled. Still singing today at 82, and described as the lady who sings in the stratosphere. Now I just smile, the joy of making music is enough.

Sissy is an icon singing to her only baby girl that has left this world and her baby's daughter too. The pain is felt in her voice, she is without merit or position just running notes so her girls hear her. God bless you Whitney and Bobbie Christina. Thank you for the music and for all it's glory, we did not live without it because of Whitney Houston.

OMG was that not just heart wrenching when she said "This is for you Nip!" I am right there with you, she had me in tears right at that moment. So happy there are people like you out there still, that have a heart.

This woman at 80 sings better than many, there are so many out there who can't hold a candle to Cissy Houston. Very touching, she can Sang. Those who are negative, I challenge you to get up on a stage in your eighties and sang for your child who has just died. I cried, because I felt the hurt, the lost, the emptiness. Thank you, Cissy! We love you.

I really try not to read the comments but, ugh! you heartless jerks are mentally jacked up. sometimes I wish there wasn't a comment section because of disrespectful, ignorant, hateful, heartless (already mentioned), and negative creeps. those type of people are all up in the comment section as if you guys are so damn perfect!! I can say some negative things too about you hateful, ignorant, and negative strangers but, that isn't going to, and won't make me any better. why don't any of you put yourself out there for the world to see? On top of that, singing in front of a live crowd, and on top of that, for a loved one who died? I commend Cissy Houston for being a brave mother that held her composure, although it was tough for her. KUDOS to you, Cissy Houston!! You sang that song, and also held that note at the end like nobody's business!! R.I.P. Whitney Houston.

+Tanya Lake I agree. I know I couldn't do this for one of my daughters. I probably couldn't even speak. God bless this brave mother. Some people are just so sad, pathetic and miserable. Their lives are jacked up and they seem to take pleasure in seeing other people in pain. I never take them serious because they have no depth or heart. They are to be pitied because they are just so sad.

Diana Baskin I agree also. I may not agree with some of the things that Cissy Houston might have said in certain interviews (that's besides the point) but, I will not stoop so low as to be so heartless, and vile like these hateful commenter's. Ugh!

Mama still got it! I wonder if Whitney's death has changed the road to many of those following that drug addicted road. Such a total waste if not. A great loss to us all, so sad to see the last few years of her trying to cope end in tragedy. Please if you even think about taking a drug, watch all of the Whitney downloads on here, and rethink your decision, because after the first time, come others and your life will change and never be your own again.For anyone who thinks Cissy can't sing, listen to her background high notes on Aretha Franklins "Ain't no way" (it's a early B&W cover)... She will knock your sox's off. I don't know how after loosing her daughter like that, that she was even able to get one note out. My hats off to her and her strength at that terrible time in her life.

Applepiebetty This is a stellar performance from a strong and living mother. You could feel the pain in her voice. My cousin became a meth addict. His mind is too far gone. It's tough to know the person you've always cherished will never be the same.

Brilliant moving performance - especially for someone of her age and in those circumstances - true Gospel performance and obviously such an inspiration to Whitney. - Haters gonna hate - especially when they have no soul and don't know what they're talking about!

CISSSY IS BADDDDD she sang that song from her heart and everybody felt that. She was grieving as well. When you can stand on a stage and affect hundreds of people in 1 room by just singing that’s how you kno you anointed ❗️
