    incredible!!!

    I enjoyed this concert very much! Her voice here was phenomenal as well as her looks. My personal favorites from this concert were love is, greatest love of all, and love will save the day. It was very interesting to hear her sing that song for the very last time in her career. It was also very nice to hear her bring back classics such as where you are and jesus loves me. Compared to the johannesburg concert that was released a while back, in my personal opinion i think this concert is way better! She seems more rested and the setlist is incredible. If you have the time, i highly recommend you to watch this movie if you are a whitney fan!!!!

    Amazing concert!

    This is one of the most amazing concerts that Whitney has delivered through out her career. It is full of energy but also emotion, cause she has finally felt she was among her own people.

    The songs selection is another excellent point to remark, she sang "Home" with such conviction and meaning each phase in a very particular way that is mesmerizing! Worthwhile watching so many years later!

    Also ech of her songs become in a very special meaning in their lyrics, she changed very subtle things that also have new very emotional.meaning in that moment in particular!

    Thanks to State for this release. I wish they release it in DVD in its complete version.

    An Experience Like No Other

    A truly mesmerizing showcase of the greatest vocalist that ever walked this earth. A flawless performance. This particular show in South Africa showed the true beauty of not only Whitney herself, but her heart and also her spirit. An artist that will always be truly missed.

    The crowd filled the stadium with such joy and energy, and received the same amount of dedication back from Whitney.

    The band, singers, and crew pulled of a truly remarkable performance that will be remembered by generations to come. A physical release of this show would be the cherry on top for Christmas.

    Bravo to all involved.

    The voice

    It's really a must watch! I loved each and every moment💜,this truly showed why she was named The Voice 😊. I felt each and every emotion from all the performances. I am so proud that people from my country 🇿🇦 were able to experience such magical moment and I am also happy that I also got to experience that even when it was theatrical released. Performances like the greatest love of all and love is really did loved them. I am so glad that they did release this concert because as Whitney fans we have been longing for such concerts to released. We will always love you Whit you really did play your part.

    She was just amazing!

    Simply AMAZING!!!

    She started the show with a blast!! Her so emotional perfomance has now become one of my fav!! The same goes for 'love will save the day' every song she sang was stellar and truly came from her heart!! Her pop songs were killer as always bur the real moment for me was during her 'I have nothing' performance which is truly something else!! The same goes for her performance of ' saving all my love for you' there she truly blew me away!!

    She looked amazing, energised, and it was clear that she was happy on stage!! Her voice was on fire, and she interacted with the audience like no other!!

    It was truly a splendid experience!!!
