Sorry, but there's only one possible response to a claim like that!

Whitney redid the song and made it her own. That is the truth.
She also killed it, made it a roarfest in the same way Carey murdered Nilsson's "Without you": took all the gentle heart and soul out of it and just threw in tons of bombast. Like Neapolitan says, style over substance. Thats the benchmark now, and it's sadly the way most if not all female singers are going.
