Top 10 Whitney Houston Live Performances of All Time

[@jazzwhitney3333]

The VOICE! I was blessed to meet her on June 12, 1998, my 11th birthday. My school changed it's name to be named after her. The Whitney E. Houston Academy of Creative and Performing Arts. We had the same teachers! I lived around the corner from her childhood home.

So cool!

So true, there will never be another Whitney Houston. It's hard to believe she's been gone over 10 years. Rest in peace beautiful lady.

[@ConnorMiller417]

Whitney Houston singing the National Anthem is something the world misses. There’s no human being I’ve ever heard sing the National Anthem better than Whitney Houston. There will never be another like her.

[@Babyvalkyie]

Not one. So many people have sang it BEAUTIFULLY but it don't hit like Whit.

Why Americans always apply themselves to "the World"? Keep it to yourself.

[@abellewis3062]

Nobody can sing the National Anthem like Whitney Houston. Enough said.

[@carlosv728]

Best ever National anthem.

[@roter13]

Her Grammy performance of "Saving all my love for you" should be on this list. She literally won an Emmy for that live performance.

[@JJ_Justice]

This is so true. Won an Emmy for her debut Grammy performance

[@LaLayla99]

In my opinion, "One Moment in Time" should have been #1. She absolutely commanded that stage with just her presence and her voice.

[@Thegazelle1000]

Agree! One of the best performances of the grammy awards.

[@MichaelKnows97]

Hands down!! 💪🏽💪🏽

[@turquoise806]

She was offkey in the chorus (right after the belting part). Maybe she got too carried away. It would have been her best live performance for me.

[@Thegazelle1000]

@@turquoise806 of key in the one moment in time performance??? Are you kidding me?

[@Swahili14]

@@turquoise806 there's no such a thing in that performance LMAO The only thing that was a sort of mistake is her carrying mic too far from her at times Otherwise It's pure perfection

[@irvinbohac8460]

Whitney Houston had a voice and presence that only God can gift someone. Her voice really was the 8th wonder of the world. We are all blessed to experienced her prime, her music, her gift. Love you Nippy!

ALL of Whitney's live performances were unique, and there is no way to narrow it down to just 10. She raised the bar so high, that no one has been able to touch her greatness. Thank you, Whitney!

[@The_Truth-]

@ashley1994 Just like she topped Mariah live countless times.🤣🤣🤣🤣

One thing about Whitney: she would make her lives performances better than the recording sessions. I have a least 4 versions of each of her same song in my phone! She was genius 👏 🙌!

She is the no doubt that Best Female Singer of The All Time ( Best Diva ) . I will allways remember you Whitney Houston !

[@yannpampillonia]

I would say when she sang “All at Once” at Sanremo’s Festival in Italy back in the 80’s. She is the ONLY artist who was ever asked to sing twice at the Festival. That performance was everything

[@officialdjanel]

My favorite artist of all time. RIP Whitney🕊️❤️

[@madman00774]

What a legendary singer this woman was! She was clearly "The Voice" and will never be topped! ❤

[@msdeshabangbang]

That medley could possibly be #1. To sing those 3 incredibly hard songs, straight through... FLAWLESSLY is GODDESS level singing. Mrs Houston is unmatched!

[@Rayzer_6]

She sang that medley better in 1993 actually!!!

[@herauthenticself7749]

Star spangled banner should be number one absolutely beautiful moment in history nobody has ever sung it better than whitney it was a masterpiece.

[@12kiru]

Oh man if All The Man That I Need performance wasn’t number one I was gonna flip lol that song gives me goosebumps and I listen to it all the time it comes up on my phone. So glad they made it purchasable because it’s unforgettable!

“Greatest Love Of All” from the Arista 15th Anniversary Special should’ve been on this list - the tenderness, the power, the emotion and of course that 16 second note at the climax was nothing short of spectacular

[@ameliabedelia7018]

She was not singing live. It was pre-recorded due to fear the echo in the stadium and the jets would be too distracting for her. It was studio recorded the day before. “Although Houston was singing live, she was singing into a dead microphone, and television viewers were hearing a non-live pre-recorded version of the anthem due to her musical director making her aware of the risks of performing live, including the sound of the crowd, jets flying overhead, and other such distractions from pregame activities.”
