Whitney Houston & Kelly Clarkson
For the last couple of days, I have been listening to live performances of Whitney Houston & Kelly Clarkson. While I listen to these women sing, it sends chills up my spine. At times I shed a few tears because their voices are so beautiful. Their voices are definitely a gift from GOD. As a result, I figured I would share a few of my favorites and explain why these two are in my 10 singers of all time.
Starting with Whitney Houston, she is considered "THE VOICE". During the 1985-1995, her voice could not be matched. After 1995, Whitney took advantage of her gift and GOD took it away from her. In 2009, Whitney came back with her new album, which was very successful but her live performances were not the reason for her being considered "THE VOICE". But thank you for www.youtube.com, you can go there to her some of Whitney's best performances.
Favorite Whitney Houston Live Performances:
5. SAVING ALL MY LOVE FOR YOU ON THE IM YOUR BABY TONIGHT TOUR
During this performance, she turns soul-pop jam into a jazzy number. She does it so
effortlessly with runs and all. The background vocalists makes the performance so
much better, its better than the original version to me.
4. YOU GIVE GOOD LOVE LIVE ON JOHNNY CARSON
During this performance she slow mid tempo jam down with her and the piano. She gets
you from the 2:00 point until the end of the video. Her voice sounds so smooth and clear,
she makes you feel what love is on this on. CHECK IT OUT!
3. PORGY, AND I'M TELLING YOU, I HAVE NOTHING AT THE 1994 AMA
During this performance she showed the world why she was the artist of the year for 1992
- 1994. She killed this performance and looked good doing it. Her band was on point with
her voice anything was just going her way that night. She won 8 awards and had the best
performance of the night. SPEECHLESS
2. ALL THE MAN I NEED ON ARSENIO HALL SHOW
This is my favorite Whitney Houston song, with this she shows me why. You can feel
she was singing to a then ex-husband Bobby Brown. Whitney has feeling this performance
from beginning to end. CHECK FOR YOURSELF!!!
1. THE GREATEST LOVE OF ALL AT ARISTA'S 15TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY
My opinion this is Whitney's best performance ever. Her voice and everything is just
flawless. NO WORDS LEFT, JUST WATCH!!
ON TO KELLY!!!
Kelly Clarkson is the first winner of American Idol. In my opinion, she is the best idol. Kelly's voice she can sing any type of music from country to gospel. During the her season of American Idol I had her going to the finals, but I thought Tamyra Gray was going to win. But Kelly definitely proved why she is the best with her live performances. Kelly is still out so she still have time to make more great performances, but these are my favorites.
Favorite Kelly Clarkson Peformances:
5. MISS INDEPENDENT LIVE ON AOL
During this performance, she turned a pop song into a rock song. Her vocals on this
is flawless. This was actually the first performance that made to really started me to
like her more than I did on idol, because she really made this song hers. WATCH

This is my favorite song from Kelly. This performance she sounds on good. She sounds
just like the song. LISTEN

During this performance, I can feel her through my soul. She sounds so soulful, everytime
I listen to this performance I just close my eyes and listen. TRY IT!!!
2. BREAKAWAY LIVE ON VH1 UNPLUGGED
This Breakaway album was that cd I listened to when I finally left home for college. I
listened to this album because I was breaking away from my shelter up bringing. This
was the album that helped me through this life changed. But this performance of
Breakaway is the best. She makes me feel so good, I sing along everytime I hear it,
I try to listen to hit every hit too. CHECK IT OUT
1. UP TO THE MOUNTAIN LIVE ON IDOL GIVES BACK
This is my best Kelly Clarkson performance in my opinion. She takes this song to church.
