Whitney Houston, the greatest female vocalist of all time in my humble opinion

I am not a religious person by nature .. but Whitney's voice makes me believe in some higher power! That is just phenomenal talent!

What Whitney had could never be taught, that was pure God given talent.

No one can touch Whitney's voice. There are great singers, and there is Whitney Houston. She is called the voice for a reason. Such a gift! It's beyond impressive. It's a complete experience.

I’m in a puddle of tears. The loss. I was in middle school when her first album hit. She was the soundtrack to my life.

And that is why Whitney deserves to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!

Does anyone else agree that Whitney was an absolutely gorgeous woman? I think when she did The Bodyguard she looked and sounded fantastic. I do miss her live singing and putting out new songs. Simply amazing.

I love how's he's feeling the music, lol.

Whitney has to be one of the greatest female's singers of all time.

Wow... You explained it perfectly: She was a true master musician and a master vocalist. A great performance. Thank you for the analysis!

I never realized she was controlling the orchestra. Wow. GOAT.

Her voice was an INSTRUMENT, a one woman orchestra! FROM GOD ALMIGHTY!

I can not listen to Whitney without crying at some point. The only singer to always have that effect on me. This video was so interesting xx.

This performance should be shown and studied in music schools

John I had the privilege of seeing her twice in the 80's and 90's. You summed it up. She had Every single person in the audience in the palm of her hand. Her voice in person does not compare to video. Miss her so...

I just want to cry...I miss Whitney..her voice was ministry to our soul.

She was the greatest singer in the World..

Her mother says "most people sing from 1 of 3 places Head, Chest or Stomach" ... Whitney learned all 3 and mastered them

I was playing metal guitar while she was in her prime...but now as an older man, I can see what all the hype was and is about. She may very well be the best singer ever! She has something that there isn't a word for...i imagine God Himself gets chills while she sings

Your reaction to her performance was just as commanding as her performance. Without the technical how and why, there wouldn’t be a wow in the delivery of sound. You certainly did her justice.

You can evaluate her voice and style but there is no explanation other than she was gifted from God.

I didn't think I could enjoy Whitney Houston's great voice more, but hearing *why* she's so great from a vocal professional adds a richness to my enjoyment of her incredible talent.

She was special! Miss her ❤️

I LOVE that you're speaking of her IN THE PRESENT. Thank you.

This was most the most informative reaction I’ve ever watched on KZfaq. I learned new terminology and now know how to identify things on my own singing that i already do. Thank you for this. Whitney was a true talent.

This beautiful lady gave her gift to the world and healed souls while hers was ripped apart. Love you Whitney

❤️ this guy! His reactions to Whitney’s vocals reflect how she captivated us all. He’s a true lover of music and raw talent!

She was sick during this performance and still killed it.

Whitney sings without straining. Total control. Then boom she excels effortlessly! I love the wig and the beautiful red gown.

I am glad someone truly expresses how much a genius of her craft Whitney Houston was.

I know he’s a vocal coach because of his excitement listening to her voice.

Never ever be another Whitney Houston her music is timeless 💔🌹🇬🇧

Yes someone who actually knows what they’re talking about about the brilliance of Whitney!!! Please do more of Whitney!!!

The voice of an entire choir of Angels. Amazing singer. May she rest in peace.

She left that microphone smoking. It should be sitting in a museum right now.

We were blessed to have heard her voice. Many will come behind her and will sound like Whitney, but will be missing something. There will NEVER be another Whitney Houston. #RIPWHITNEYHOUSTON⚘🕊⚘

I am crying and laughing all at once... tears rolling down and I'm elated all at once... Whitney does this to me.

John your reaction to Queen Whitney's performance was excellent the way you broke down each part.Whitney was truly a master class in Vocals there will never be another Talent like Ms.Houston please react to more of her performances.

This wasn't a video. This was an experience! I learned so much. I didn't know there were like names for the things she did. Also, you pointed out the way everyone was working in concert with each other. It's easy (especially with Miss Whitney) to only focus on the vocalist so thanks for that. Yes, she wasn't just a singer, she was a musician. A master. To me she will always be the best ever. Thanks for letting me share in your joy! You really are very skilled and knowledgeable at what you do.

This was one of my favourite performances from her. To learn from your insight that she was controlling the band rather than the conductor makes it that little bit more awe inspiring. I’ve often watched & thought they must have rehearsed this hundreds of times to anticipate what she was about to do next. When really she was listening to the audience & taking it at her own free will, in order to give them exactly what they wanted & the band came along for the ride. I’m thrilled that a professional coach like yourself displayed some respect & decorum by choosing a performance from when she was at the top of her game rather than one where you could tear her vocals apart. We all know the ending by now & true fans & inspiring singers aren’t interested to see that again. When I think of Whitney I always think she was loved by millions yet she was one of the most lost & lonely individuals on the planet. That’s the showbiz world, plenty of yes men securing their 25% but no one of real substance. If you’re thinking of entering this world keep your wits about you & make the decisions that feel right in your gut.

Go to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame website and vote daily for Whitney to be in the Hall of Fame. She should have been voted in before now. It is a mockery that she and Chaka are not in the Hall of Fame.

One of her best performances, she is undoubtedly the greatest female vocalist❤️ I’d love to see your reaction to her Love Medley in 1991 Welcome Home Heroes. God bless

I’m already a huge Whitney fan, but this video really made me REALLY appreciate this voice on another level. I learned so much from this video! WOW!

She gives me goosebumps every time 😭😩🙌🏾🙌🏾

Please please more Whitney Houston 😭😭🙏🙏🙏

She was taught how to sing by her mother Cissy Houston and her family were gospel singers. Her cousin was Dionne Warwick and Aretha Franklin was a close friend to the family since she was born. That’s why she sang the way she did, she was taught by the greats.

There can be no argument that Whitney is nothing less than the Voice of my lifetime. What an incredible privilege to have watched her live. Her unsurpassable brilliance has no peer.

I really enjoyed watching your coaching on Whitney Houston's voice. As a singer myself she is the Ultimate Voice, and there will never be another. Her voice after all these years still bring tears to my eyes.

Every performance from Whitney was a master class. I saw her live in concert in 88 and she was absolute perfection.

This has been one of my favorite reaction videos of Whitney. You broke everything down while teaching. You brought up things that shows her musicality and her ability to lead the band effortlessly. Thank you

Whitney is one of the most talented songstress we will ever have, personal life aside. She was truly a gifted entertainer.

I love Whitney so so much. She was such a masterful storyteller. Everything worked - her looks, voice, smile. You could tell she loved her audience as much as she loved the music. She was incredible. This was a beautiful reaction. Thank you so much.

Your a true teacher. The explanation is beyond superb.

This was so informative and the best vocal coach breakdown I have heard on the Tube. Whitney was truly something. It's a gift to have lived to witness her live on tv.

She was a Proffessional singer, we lost a gifted soul way too early . Still missing her

He's seems passionate. I like his vibe. Whitney is everything! RIH sweet baby.

She had THE MOST AMAZING voice.....OMG!!!! Lord, just beautiful she's gone but the memories that she left us with❤❤❤❤

She had such an amazing talent. Tears in my eyes, she moves me so much. Huge loss, massive.

I actually love his analysis because he is basically telling us all just how great that she is/was as a singer and that the majority of singers do not have those gymnastics in their voices.....Whitney's voice is simply SOUL TOUCHING!

she was the best. love how she can switch to falsetto. smooth.

Makes me want to watch The Bodyguard so I can hear the whole AWESOME soundtrack!

Whitney "THE VOICE" Houston.

Whitney Houston voice was flawless, and her singing control was amazing

I agree with many of you. She is “The Voice” , the greatest of all time

Whitney put that stank on it!!! Man, I miss her!!!! ❤❤

I have always adored Whitney. All her concerts were wonderful ; but this performance is divine. Her music lives on forever and forever. I'm so glad. I lived in her lifetime. She is missed greatly.

We all knew She was a great vocalist because we get chills, but you gave us insight into the magnitude of her Brilliance. Thanks.

Whitney was simply one of the greatest pop singers of all time and her phrasing was what made her special. My first job out of school was as a radio announcer way back in the 80s. I did midnight to dawn on a station that no one listened to. The very first song I ever introduced was Whitneys I will always love you. I was about 18 years old, alone in a studio, in the middle of the night, for the very first time and nervous as hell. I'd never heard the song before but I introduced it and played her loud in my headphones. I have been a fan ever since!

I just was suggested this video...probably because Whitney is MY FAVORITE SINGER EVERRRRR and I've watching her performances all day..I love the way YOU broke it down and explained the vocal simplistic....I INSTANTLY subscribed....anyone who loves Whitney is good by me.. 😊

This makes me sad. Whitney epitomized the difference between a singer and an entertainer. And she's gone from us.

Yep I feel like was one of the luckiest people on earth to have seen her live right in the beginning of her career at a concert here in the San Francisco Bay Area in the mid 80s. Whew what a voice she had. My soul is rattled into and ripped out of heaven every time I hear her sing.

Whitney was, hands down, the most incredibly masterful vocalist of my lifetime, and one of the best of all time.

This performance always brings tears to my eyes. Her soulful control in the song is unmatched. You are so right how she was able to vocally dance within the measures. Whitney’s long time musical director back then was Ricky Minor. He knew how to conduct the band to give Whitney what dynamics she needed musically. Total study guide here.

There will never be another one like her.

Whitney was the best to ever do it. I love your breakdown of this beautiful song.

Greatest singer of all time. Some people like to say that Mariah Carey is better but I think Whitney's voice sounds more natural and has a rich sound that Mariah just doesn't have. Maybe Whitney just does a better job of conveying emotion in her voice than what Mariah does IDK.

When Whitney was on stage she was always in charge what a master

Thanks John. Really fun hearing how you broke that down. What a master she was!

This man is amazing, Whitney had a miracle voice!

Whitney is truly a natural she never struggled one moment with any note ! Sung with such ease and control ! Beautiful incredible Voice ! ❤️

Hard not to cry listening to her sing. What a loss ! 🙏💜 Thank you sir....fascinating.

I get goosebumps when I hear this!!!! A good song deserves so many likes!!!!! Especially Whitney Houston!!! She’s remarkable and everything about her is just wow 🤩

Like this comment if you grew up listening to Miss Whitney Houston!!! RIP Whitney!!!!❤️

Whitney Houston voice was a work of art she used that voice like an instrument.

Thank you John! This performance is really a masterpiece!

And that is why she is known as The Voice!!

I had the honor of seeing Whitney live in concert...blew me away !!!! Miss and love you Whitney. ❤️

Whitney’s voice does something to your body and your soul. I don’t know what it is.

I'e always felt that Whitney's camp has failed to communicate how vocally gifted she was. She didn't just sing.

Whitney's voice can literally hypnotize you.... I loved this analyze

Whenever a musician hears a real musical performance, he gets the stankface!!!😝😝😝

I was 16 when this aired and I had never SEEN a singer sing a hit record like this with the changes in the arrangement ---it really blew my mind. I recorded the performance on VHS and cherished it for years...I'm so pleased to hear a teacher's notes on what Whitney accomplished that night.

I miss her so much That voice Forever the queen ♥️ Ain’t nobody better than nippy☺️

Masterclass: one moment in time. Live. Grammys. My ears weren't the same after.

Why do I enjoy watching him listen her as much as I enjoy listening to Whitney.

Thank you for your respectful analysis of the Queen! She was perfect, this performance was perfect! Rich, full bodied! Her voice was like a bold coffee, sweetened ever so lightly. I love her so much!

This is the perfect performance for vocalists to study. The way she leads the orchestra and they follow her lead. The musicians were every bit as committed as she was. With Whitney, there was always a beginning, middle, and an end to a song. I hear so many songs now that have a flaky end, like they don't even know this concept. She was gifted on so many levels that I really, really appreciate in a vocalist. No one really topped her and it is so fitting that she will always be known as The Voice.

Singer in charge: Whitney Houston's Super Bowl performance of The Star Spangled Banner!

I think she was the greatest singer of all time!! The most beautiful voice ever. Period. It’s so sad how she died and the things that happened in her life, but we serve an awesome God who loved her. I hope to see her in heaven singing with the angels....

Whitney was truly a Professional vocalist!! Just simply beautiful!! A real singer!!! THE VOICE!!!
