What was so great about Houston’s voice?
And, at her peak, she made it look so effortless.
In other words, not only did Whitney Houstonhavethe range, shewasthe range.
She was and is the yardstick by which every other singer will ever be judged.
One song is vocally demanding.
All three, back to back, live, isyour fave could never.
Didn’t we almost have it all.
