Writer John Davidson of PopMatters.com made a comparison on the voices of Donna Summer, Barbra Streisand, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey and Christina Aguilera. He says: “Few vocalists in recent years could have traded blows with Streisand and left not only with a reputation intact, but actually enhanced. Perhaps pre-stoned Whitney Houston might have managed it, but certainly not Mariah Carey, who for all her stunning vocal range, has yet to record a single song worthy of her gift.

Summer and Streisand, meanwhile, contrived to elevate a song that contained all the elements of a substantive fondue into something that occasionally borders on the miraculous.” Read more.
