You are talking about your remembered version of the performance. It's actually pretty subdued and smooth for the most part, the big belting doesn't start until the final chorus and it is a steady rise in intensity to that point. And even then it resolves so fucking nicely with those upwards glissandos at the very end, a masterstroke.

Her tone is insane and her control is so precise. It's not like the over-the-top Mary J Blige melisma you hear in a lot of r&b
Good post

Whitney was a special talent.
