If you’ve grown up hearing the song, you’d know that it’s not an easy piece to sing.

Even those who had formal vocal training couldn’t deliver it as well as Whitney Houston.

Belinda didn’t disappoint.

Even though she felt her heart mostly up in her throat, she delivered the song with such perfection.

In fact, she sounded very much like Whitney when she was singing.

With a 4-octave vocal range, she made everyone in the venue stand up.

She did that even though she wasn’t formally trained to sing that excellently.

Ultimately, she earned 4 yes votes from the judges, causing her to qualify for the next round.
