I watched Ailee live (although she didn't perform this song) she belted so many times and she was dancing too and her vocals were still amazinG!! GIRL IS SOMETHING ELSE!!!!
I’ve heard a lot of covers for this song and this BY FAR beats all of them. She made it her own!! And the BAND! Wow!! Would not have been the same without the bands talent, as well.
This is one of the performances that I can count with one hand, that the performer is NOT straining in the entire song. She definitely has the vocal range and technique to make this look easy, bravo!
Well said.💯She did this with ease and it was phenomenal. First time I've heard her sing live. I think I found her by seeing a vid of Jonghyun's funeral🥺 and her "Goodbye My Love" was playing. I had to know what so g it was.😭 Oh. My poor heart.😔💔
I'm sure it's Jake Zyrus or whatever his name is now. Charice was a phenomenal but too bad, she changed herself into a guy. Her voice was clearly what a talented person would have, but she's now gone, only videos of her remain. As a fellow fan of Charice for years (since she was in Star King), I agree that Charice was one of the best female singers we would have at this era. But her voice was nowhere as controlled as Ailee, the emotion she tried to express just wasn't as much as how Ailee does. She's good, but Ailee is just too good.
This is a performance that was out of this world. I usually say, no one could touch Whitney with this song...but Ailee did her own thing with it and both Whitney's version and this version are iconic!!
Absolutely true. Whitney was the best female vocalist in her generation, perhaps the greatest of all time. Ailee is the best female vocalist this generation hands down and icon.
@@ISangaloUnofficialFR Charice does have incredible vocals, but Ailee’s tone is more unique. Charice sounds reminiscent of Regina Velazquez or Celine Dion. Ailee sounds like Ailee, so I give the edge to her, but that’s just my opinion.
I don't even know that many Korean singers but I know that nothing can top this type of voice. It's literal perfection, no one can possibly sing better
No hate to other singers in Korea, l love kpop, but I think Ailee deserves more attention than what she has now, she is such an amazing singer, and she deserves more love.
give Ailee just one song and she'll just stand there giving her all for just that one song. the beauty in her simplicity. no dancing no props but only her vocals that'll mesmerize you forever. jackson & jinyoung were awestruck so bad i relate to them.
Merci pour la précision. En effet elle reste la deuxième...car je ne remarque pas beaucoup de différence avec la version de Whitney à part une voix plus lourde dans les aigus. Withney vient du jazz et sa voix reste à la juste place d'un instrument.
@@cve3374 Whitney will always remain first place when it come to this song, there can be different singers singing this song in different styles and it can be pleasant to hear. But no one come close to Whitney
@@20891 I know this is not Whitney Houston song. Neither I am being biased. It's just my opinion that Whitney Houston sung it the best, and secondly Ailee. If people think Dolly Parton or other singers sang it the best then it's their opinion, I don't have anything towards them.
I love the audience. No clapping, no yelling, no disruption at all. They're letting her do her thing and at the end let her know how amazing she was. I wish most performances would go this way.
@@user-qe1sc8fg7j 오히려 반대였어요.. 소향님 무대 정말 좋아하는데 이 노래만큼은 안어울리는 느낌? 소향님은 번개치듯한 고음이 정말 예술이지만 반대로 에일리님은 묵직한 고음이 예술이거든요 이 노래 원곡도 휘트니에 단단하고 묵직한 고음이 잘 들어나는 곡이라 소향님 박기영님 이런 가수분들이 오히려 안어울린다고 생각이 들더라고요 뭐 소향님 노래 잘하시는거 모두가 아는 사실이라 할말은 없지만... 이노래만큼은 에일리가 잘 살린거 같다는 말입니다.
She legitimately looked and sounded like an angel during the whole performance. It's such a shame she isn't as popular in the U.S. and Canada like she is in Korea
Kyle Smith She started just as your everyday youtube singer in the US then entered an audition in korea and immediately got scouted. She then partook in a korean pre-debut trainee singers competition with her Halo by beyonce and its been uphill ever since. It is amazing to see how much she improved with all the right training.
Min Hoseok this is first time a song has made me tear up, and I've heard this song before many times, and I dare say she put more emotion into this song than anyone before her. I really felt every word she sang.
Indus American Digest Dolly has stated multiple times how she wrote the song but Whitney perfected it and she knows that’s something her voice cant do. Dolly was not and is not jealous.
I'M IN 2024 RIGHT NOW AND LISTENING TO THIS MASTERPIECE. OH MY GOSH, AILEE'S VOCALS ARE REALLY SOMETHING ELSE. THE PEOPLE WHO GOT TO SEE THIS LIVE ARE SO LUCKY. I'M REALLY JEALOUS. FROM 3:28 TO 4:28 SHE DID ALL THOSE HIGH NOTES LIVE AND WITHOUT STRAINING?? LIKE OMG, THIS WOMAN IS OUT OF THIS WORLD. HER HIGH NOTE IN 4:10 LITERALLY GAVE ME GOOSE BUMPS AND MADE ME TEAR UP. AND THE FACT THAT SHE ADDED AN EXPRESSION BEFORE DOING THE HIGH NOTE REALLY MADE THE PART EVEN MORE PERFECT. SHE ACTED LIKE SHE WAS ABOUT TO SAVE THE WORLD AND MAKE IT SHAKE, AND SHE DID ‼‼I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE THAT SHE DID ALL THIS LIVE. SHE CAN LITERALLY RULE OVER K-POP'S VOCAL PORTION. THIS WILL FOREVER AND I MEAN FOREVER, REMAIN ICONIC 💖💖‼‼
@@sugarqcoat I personally think she's one of the most underrated in general. I would've loved to discover her earlier but she doesn't seem to be recognized world wide as she should be.
Does she have a youtube channel?cause i would like to subscribe her channel ( or any other channel where all of her songs are uploaded ) please tell ☺️
The Best in KPop : HYOLYN The Best in Korea : SOHYANG AILEE just an American who singing in Korean Language (she has great voice though, but HYOLYN and SOHYANG always number 1)
Okay, to make it clear, it was just my opinion. Also I saw many different variations of the writing of ‘KPOP or K-Pop’ or whatever, so I’m sorry if I’ve written it in the wrong way.
@@letsrateittoday Ailee kills it here, but I don't think anyone has ever sung this song better than Charice, and that includes Whitney Houston! IMHO, Charice > Whitney > Ailee but they are all in the same ballpark. This is a massive compliment to Ailee!
I will never get over this cover... Not sober. Not drunk. Not high. This is true art and music. What a blessin to ma ears~ Much respect and all the best to her 💯👍
@@Ailee_Kpop_Goddess Are you actually hating on Ailee right now or am I not understanding your comment? Cause if you are hating on her, you in the wrong comment section. I suggest you take ten steps back and get the stepping.
@@mizkelo7348 what??? I'm an Aileean. I'm saying they doing these surveys without mentioning her. And that's funny, cuz she's one of the best if not the best. I was being sarcastic. Would never say something bad about this goddess💜💜
@@Ailee_Kpop_Goddess I deeply apologize then. I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, that's a fact. I was reading Korean news yesterday that her company blacklisted her and she is not able to promote or do anything in Korea. I was so upset when I went to bed. Sorry my fellow Ailee fan. Have a wonderful day.
The emotional process of watching this performance: 0:21 "Oh wow, this is going to be amazing" *starts to be hypnotized by her amazing voice* 0:50 "No, I can't be this emotional already then I will cry for sure." *tries to just enjoy the song without getting emotional* 2:17 "Screw it. I'm going to cry. There's nothing I can do." *Prepares to cry* 2:39 *Is so emotionally into the performance that you are either staring and probably looking completely hypnotized* 3:25 "Oh goodness, here it comes, I can't stop it, I'm going to cry" 4:17 *Crying like a baby but you can't stop smiling because it is so beautiful* 4:31 *Hanging on to every note because you can feel the song coming to a close but don't want it to ever stop* 5:06 "Oh that was so perfect. Worth every single tear." 5:14 *Smiling because it was so good but a little pained because it is over now* 5:17 "But it was so perfect!"
I can't even comprehend this. This woman is breathtakingly incredible. She commands the stage by simply standing there. So much raw, natural talent. The most beautiful cover I have ever listened to. The best word to describe her? Effortless. Purely effortless. You don't see talent like this. She connected with this song on another level I have yet to witness. The level of emotions and how much she poured her entire heart and soul into this song really touched me. I want everyone to watch this, and hopefully feel as much as I did while listening. It's such a difficult task to take a world-wide legend's song, like Whitney, and do it justice. Brava, Ailee. I admire her with as much passion as I possibly can, and I hope one day I can posses even the slightest amount of talent that she does. She is definitely and officially in my top 5 of best female vocalists in history. 😍
I totally agree about the raw talent. Some people they can just hold a tune and then are trained how to develop which is great and all but for me it's rare to find a singer that sounds like she came out the womb singing like this and with such passion
