The difference is Jessie will be able to perform like this much longer. It's a good thing she doesn't have a Bobby Brown in her life. The execution I find equal but how can anyone top Whitney's voice in her prime. The writer of the song is excellent also.
This song only requires 2 octave and 1 note, and that's not wide at all in range, especially the song uses falsetto at too end which is still low for soprano.
James you are so right. The industry is terrible now, wasting such huge talent. Jessie is also a wonderful songwriter. We should support our artists more.
She was in tears, I was in tears…what a performance. Didn’t know they had a show like this. The best cover version of Whitney’s version and one of the best live performances I’ve seen.
Dude, seeing this video just broke my heart and trying not to cry while singing in a performance is very hard and Jessie did it like a pro!!🥰🤗💕 I have so much love for this woman!
Because this type of singing doesn’t appeal to the general public so record companies don’t make music to showcase these singers’ talents. So a lot of them are stuck singing shitty top 40 pop songs that are made to appeal to a certain trend in the music industry instead of going for quality, originality, creativity or something different than what the trend is. Cruel reality.
calicolombiano27 true that. They release songs that do not show the extent of their talent. I got goosebumps hearing this performance and another one she did "I will always love you". I am not a fan of hers but I know she is very talented💪
calicolombiano27 the problem with the music industry is that it caters to the simpletons, especially the musicians, to see the great musicians you have go to the small jazz clubs not the big rock arenas, It’s a shame the better the musicians get the smaller the audience gets.
Miss Madeline She’s one of the most technically skilled singers on the planet. 👍 Songs are written to trigger emotion and tell a story, not to showcase technical ability. John Lennon for example. Relatively simple voice but told story through the melodies he wrote. He’s considered one of the greatest songwriters/artists of recorded history.
Miss Madeline and if you listened properly anyway, in many of Jessie J’s tracks recorded she has great technical ability and range beyond most artists.
Wow. Just wow. I don't think I've heard anyone get this close to actually sounding like Whitney. This was absolutely beautiful. About to listen to every Jessie J song ever.
If it's close to Whitney is a failure. That's why I don't like covers of this song from other singers. It may be excellent from Whitney but imitation never sounds authentic. Jessy has a unique and superb voice but it seems that this is not her authentic voice. This happens subconsciously, singers think its safer not to wander off the original because they falsely believe that it can't be sung in any other way and still sound great. The only singer that sings this differently is Dolly Pardon and for some reason I like it even more than Whitney's. I think Dolly is the only singer that has sang it in a truly different way. Don't get me wrong Jessie's technique was immaculate but still it's not her.
It’s bc her music style doesn’t really always show off her range. So a lot of people don’t even realize she can sing like _this_ unfortunately. God she’s amazing.
Jessie J has a powerful voice. The way she sung this song gave me goosebumps. The way she sang Purple Rain brought me to tears. I'm sad her health problems prevents her from performing. I wish her all the best. Love you Jessie J❤❤
*Shes crying* ..for God's sake.. 😭🤧 Whitney was her idol, she never got to meet her. She was supposed to meet her right b4 her passing. People need to understand that shes not trying to be Whitney she knows she can never be like her but pays tribute to her by singing somewhat close to her.
You know the original singer and song writer is Dolly Parton, right? She's pretty good but just not that dramatic like Whitney. Anyways, I like this version just as much also.
You can tell she’s a big Whitney Fan. She didn’t change much up on it. She tried to sing it even w Whitney’s type of voice & style. She’s an amazing vocalist.
You can tell shes a HUGE Whitney fan by her having to have the lyrics on a teleprompter so she wouldn't forget them, just like all the big fans would need. Thanks for your brilliant comment.
Wow!!!! ❤ Been a fan of Jessie since she burst onto the scene, but she doesn't get the recognition she so deserves!!! This cover is just unforgettable!! ❤❤❤❤
She’s OK but doesn’t look effortless. Se Witney and witness what effortless is. Also Witney voice is nice to the ear. Not so piercing. Also her breath intake shouldn’t be so noticeable. Nowhere near Witney
@@vitorfernandes651 Quite.. it's not effortless. It's seemingly slower and has a slightly disconnected feeling as if she is taking a break now and then whilst hitting the more popular known phrases and forceful lyrics. Absolutely brilliant though! I never realised she had this amount of power and talent in her, very well done indeed. Dolly would be proud I hope. I just noticed she expresses everything with her arms. I don't like that .. just my view though. Great voice is the most important thing here.
tylerjbuckingham Jessie is a star in her own right and has had several hits ‘Who’s laughing now’. Great vocalist but Whitney Huston was something else. However I agree with another comment in here that I’ve never heard WH song unless she’s belting it out. Singing is not all about that
I couldn't agree more with Tyler. Her vocals are impeccable! I knew she was good, very good even, but I didn't actually know she could deliver that! WOW! Absolutely Fantastic!
The funny part about the corrections pro Dolly Parton, is that nobody cares who Dolly is or was, all we remember is Whitney killing the hell out of that song and thus it is a WHITNEY song. If you can't be first, be best.
Vanessa G ik it’s originally dolly’s song but Whitney turned it into the iconic song that millions of people know and love, plus this was sung a a tribute to Whitney not dolly so that’s why I said Whitney
@@lewisluna8641 dolly sold more copys and whitney walked out of a interwview when rhe reporter corrected her when she bragged. Whitney never had 1/4 of career dolly has. She was a star of a few years befors she burnt her brain and voice out on drugs. The last decade of her life she sounded horrible.
She felt every second of that song. The tears in her eyes and the care of each note she sang is a beautiful tribute to Whitney and a perfect example of how incredibly talented Jessie is!!!
Whitney is only one and I will always love her, Jessie J revived her for a while. Thank you Jessie J I love your voice, I love the emotion in your singing, I love you. ❤🎉
This reproduction is so good that I believe most ppl who only heard the audio and didn't see the video might actually believe its Whitney. Phenomenal performance.
Erwan Uta it’s nothing to do with being a grown woman ! She has a serious cardiac problem , if she drinks , smokes , or uses , she dies . And to sing like that with a hole in the heart is even more impressive , don’t ya think ?
not the only but one of few with vocals that can come close but she lacks soul and the feeling of the song..she just sang it like whitney did or as close as possible...she is great the si think if he is showing off her vocas ok but she needs to sing songs that she gets lost in and feels every word and she would blow away alot and out do even these performances shit it was still great th0
a vdd que pra mim ela tbm tem a voz perfeita,o que eu acho que faltou nela foi ter produzido musicas a altura da voz dela,músicas mais técnicas que ao msm tempo emocionam como a adele lançou um album com 21 musicas icônicas que marcou todo o público.
Because of her music style most people never realise how amazing she can sing jessie is probably one of the most amazing vocalist around today she is another special singer just like Whitney
I'm a rocker at heart but you are right she has more vocal talent than pretty much every other female singer around at the moment to nail this classic and if you need further proof check out the video where she does MJs earth song....ridiculous amount of talent and beauty as well ❤️
I wished we saw more such cross over Chinese productions. The way this is done, the attention to detail, this patience in the beginning, not over produced, letting a diamond shine in a simple black velvet case instead of going in full force American style - that’s amazing.
facebook.com/leotush33/videos/2838453599534991/ There, I'm singing "Tennessee Whiskey" in the style of Chris Stapleton please like, share, and comment. Thank you. Oh, she sounds very good! She is nailing this song... Whitney would be so proud... I believe it.
No tengo palabras para describir una actuación asi. Después de ver durante más de 7 años muchos cantantes en muchos programas... muchos tipos de canciones con artistas de todo tipo. Hoy ha sido el único día que me he quedado parado cuando has terminado, mirando la pantalla en silencio durante un rato... pensando...ahora si que ya no existe nadie que me pueda sorprender más. No te conozco, no se nada de ti hasta hoy. Pero... ojalá llegaras a los oidos de todo el mundo. Y con todo el respeto hacia las mejores cantantes que están y las que no estan... pero, te acabas de coronar en lo más alto. Deseo que todos tus sueños se cumplan. Un abrazo muy grande.
because the quantity always win, ppl rate a singer just because their beautiful or handsome and cool, they're not see it in other perspective like Justin bieber taylor swift selena gomez and other kpops bb.and gb is useless in this music industry!, They Can't EVEN DO A HIGHNOTE. THEY'RE ALWAYS SINGING AUTOTUNE WHILE PERFORM Or with Backing vocal I HATE THIS ERA!!!
I lover her voice since her song Price Tag years ago, and her singing accent & style belong to her but i don’t know she could sing ballads songs so well until i saw this video. JJ 👍🏻 🇮🇩
Whitney herself if alive would have given her a standing ovations for that performance she did her proud...Jessie J range is "sick" it gave me goosebumps!!!
Wow I had NO IDEA she was this talented. Here bc someone commented on Kelly singing this song and recommended Jessie's rendition. Just incredible. She is underrated wow.
We’re all so lucky to have had three incredible talents sing this gorgeous song. Thank you Dolly, Whitney, and Jessie J, and of course thank you to Dolly for writing it.
I had never heard Jesse sing this song. It's not about whether or not she sings like Whitney, when she sings, it makes your soul vibrate. Now I love her!!!
This is exactly why she’s so underrated. She’s the only one who can actually sing as good as Whitney, actually she sounds like her and it’s crazy! Almost as if she’s not even doing an effort... She has an incredible voice y’all! This is incredibly beautiful. She is. She’s blessed. ❤️🙏🏼
@@LiwaySaGu if jessie sang it first than whitney surely you'd say that whitney is good but not as good as jessie. Stop comparing, both of them are incredinle in their own way. Remember that.
The production for The Singer show has always been top notch. The musicians, the lighting, the crowd, the stage - all PERFECT. I have seen Dimash in other shows and yet I think the closest to perfection he has ever been was when he sang in this show in 2017.
Ilyass ELK They WERE the most powerful, but for a few hundred years the west has modernised to the point we’re they are the most powerful. British empire was the largest, the USA has the most powerful military. And right now China is oppressing its people, so I’ll stick to the west for now.
Jessie J has done complete justice to this Whitney Houston’s most popular song; it’s as if Houston herself is singing it, if one didn’t know it’s J singing. Kudos to J for keeping Houston alive with her golden voice 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👊🏼
From Australia. I believe that Whitney was the best singer that's ever been, and to think Jessie can sing her biggest song ever! Incredible and beautiful!
Complimenti Jessye...sei una donna fantastica! io sono musicista e ti ho capita perfettamente, ma ti posso garantire che quella sera....hanno capito tutti !!! Grazie, TI AMO 💖💖💖💖💖💖💝💝
Shit management!! They have seen her as a quick £$€ making machine!!! Plus, when she started to make hits, it was at the phasing out of that type of music in the UK? (That style she was doing). She didn't change/ move with the times quick enough? (Granted she was poorly too but the Uk'S opinion was already there). It would have probs been a good time to unleash the ABSOLUTE BEAST OF TALENT she is then?? This along with the evil press/ social media seems to have hindered her. I may be wrong? Just an observation! She is also a woman who stands out as a, "SUPER confident, SUPER talented , SUPER alpha, SUPER strong, SUPER beautiful, SUPER intelegent, SUPER "CAN DO IT LIKE A MAN, CAN DO IT LIKE A DUDE! " in your face WOMAN!! "It's not lady like and it's intimidating!!" 🤔
Best cover I heard in a long time, this song is one of the hardest in modern music, also, trying to interpret it is a trap, this song is Whitney and Whitney is this song, Jessie gave it the respect it deserves, well done.
the key to a great cover is to re-interpret the song with your own style. That's why Whitney was so successful with Dolly's song, who performed it with strong emotion. Whitney did it amazingly in her own way. This girl is just doing a Whitney impersonation like a drag queen.
