This is breathtaking. No pre-recorded live vocals, no autotunes, no “audience help me out.” No hitting notes and breaking them down into runs.

Breaking a note into a run isn’t some crutch or a sign of a bad singer...

[@whitneyhoustonstan2472]

psych Yes, sometimes it is. Singers can’t hit the note, so they do runs to slide into the note for a brief second, which is just deceiving. Runs aren’t impressive for most singers. Most of the time, they are sloppy and not in key.

What's not widely known is how Whitney came to sing this song. On the set of the movie "The Bodyguard", the producers gave it to her and asked her to sing it. She had never heard it before.

Well said. One of the greatest vocalist in the history of vocalists! And that's out of thousands and thousand throughout history.

This era of Whitney is the epitome of why she is the greatest singer who ever lived and there will never be anyone like her. Beauty, grace, poise, stunning vocals, stage presence without even having to move, it just doesn't get better. Her tone was stunning. I'm so thankful I grew up during this time to be a part of her reign.

U nailed it!🙏🏻

[@closinginonclosure]

Exactly. She was one of the best singers of all time. In a time where you had to actually have talent and couldn't rely on a computer to make you sound better. So naturally, when you record a new song it's your first time singing it. As you live with it you get more comfortable with it over time and learn how to make it age like wine and get better. Many artists of today never even sound as good as their album version because the album version isn't really them.

The thing is, when Whitney sing this you look at it as no big deal, easy peasy. but when you see other singers trying to sing it and they cant sing it even close to how she does, then it hits you, Whitney is on another level.

[@denzassproductionsaus]

True.. Today's talent is talent-less! Not like it use to be right up to the 90's.. Nowadays, an artist promotes before an LP comes out with a scandal to get the buzz going. Clearly they don't trust themselves with just their work alone. Everyone sounds similar, it's pretty much the same old rubbish IMO!

[@Redishprint]

@@denzassproductionsaus you are absolutly spot on.Thats the reason i dont listen to modern music, 🙄 because most of the time you cant understand the word they sing. And also yes they dont trust themselves thats why the male singers need to have naked women dancing around them to sell. Glad im born in the 80s, when artists didint need nudity or scandal to record or sell a god damn album, and most of all when the lyrics had a meaning.
