Cece has a darker tone than Whitney. She seems to be placing her notes at the back of her head whereas Whitney was sort of blasting them out. But they both have/had beautiful voices with a very similar vocal technique.
That's when classification comes in... they both are mezzo sopranos... Whitney a lyric lighter more range and Cece more of a dramatic heavy and darker but still using that head voice to mix and hit that note at the end. They both fully understand the mechanics of how to sing...
I love this song most of all her songs got me through my hurting times of being in wheelchair and not able to be home with my daughter at time she at the age of 5 years old in 2002-2006 .That was the trail of my faith in God every word trusting that he heals every broken heart Mendes it back together again that what he has done for me and my daughter.

Cece didn't turn into Whitney... She's great as she is and with the gift God gave her. Stop comparing them to each other. They're distinct people with different talents.
and that wasn't a diss to cece, she just didn't sound like whitney. She hit that one head notes towards the end and she sounds liek whitney lmao.She and whitney sounds more alike on count on me than right here
Why compare CeCe and Whitney? They are two different human beings, and they both have their individuality in singing and performing. That is how it is and how it shold be!
You can tell when she started singing count on me she meant it from her heart...I got chills.... and she sand that one mostly to the camera...I hope whitney was watching...I feel she really needed that one...especially at this time she had so much with bobby and then having her second miscarriage ugh I can't imagine the pain.
I have been searching and searching for years looking for this clip. I had a collection of vs tapes with many music clips from award shows and music videos. I lost them moving. Wish I still had them. Loved this clip. Wish she had recorded this.
I did not know she was Taxes I like this song.Whitney Houston sung this song. I wish they would sung this at my sister funeral. Her birthday is in June and my mom they to woman that world would admire yo be around nice woman of believers of Jesus kind souls
Thank you so much for uploading this performance I've been looking for it. I remember being a child watching this performance in awe. Made me fall in LOVE her voice. This was a tribute to Whitney Houston 1997 Essence Awards.
They were worried about her at this time, I remember this award show Whitney was supposed to have been there but didn't she show to this event.. CeCe was such a friend...
I suppose Whitney would’ve performed this night had she not had the miscarriage-it would’ve been awesome to hear her perform “You Were Loved” live. I imagine Whitney would have ended the performance with that “Loved” in the head voice as well, so hearing Cece execute it so similarly was wonderful-this was an absolutely amazing performance.
Good everning CeCe, I pray that all is well with you. I home relaxing.Cece I am home watching the intent.It crazy ,all the crime that going on in this world..
True that we don t have to compare both but it is obvious that whytney project the emotion and her voice more than cece. I mean I felt like it was a ballad when I hear cece s version
Have to admit Cece sang you were loved as if shes the original singer. Whitney is the voice . But its like Cece is the voice for the soul. In my opinion her voice is sweeter and purer , it reminds me of milk honey and olive oil . Not to mention rich with incredible power .
She is the only one on the planet who sounds the closest to Whitney Houston... I think she intentionally does not sing tge same runs as Whitney, but they virtually have the same voice...
It's funny because she's doing the same version tbh so basically you like cece's voice doing the whitney version of the song lol it's ok to each its own😊🤷🏾♀️ I like cece too so not complaining.
