Whitney Houston

For me, Beautiful Liar isn't an iconic duet. Nor a future Katy/Rihanna collaboration will be.

Whitney and Mariah's When You Believe is what i call iconic. Two great voices and a great theme song to a great movie. The other iconic duet for me is Celine and Barbra's Tell Him.

I hated that song when it came out! This was her worst lead ever!

Bodyguard is out on Blu today, should be getting it from Amazon in a couple weeks (since I ordered it and a few other things at the same time and they're shipping all out at once to get free shipping).

Always liked the movie, looking forward to see it in HD. Maybe Waiting To Exhale can follow

Honestly I believe the whole I'm Your Baby Tonight album is incredibly underrated. It lacks the ubersappy pop that IMO bogged the debut album down and it didn't have the filler her second did. In her career, it was largely seen as the calm before the explosion of The Bodyguard but as a whole the album deserves to be better remembered. Glad it at least re-entered the top 40 in the US as a result of the sales spike following her passing.

I Didn't Know My Own Strength came on Spotify Radio just a min ago (funny as I was just discussing her a few mins ago here). When the album came out, all I could hear was how her power ballad voice was gone, but now in hindsight, the song is really bittersweet and tragic because she is singing about being a survivor and everything and now we know what's happened. Her last album was really good.

she looked great. While there's an aura of sadness with it being her unintended farewell to the world and fans, it looks like she'll be going out on a high note with this.

Trailer looks good.

"You Were Loved" from The Preacher's Wife is so ironic and sad now.

I'm assuming we getting a Whitney compilation for Thanksgiving!!!??
Any bets? :lol:

Trailer is sad.

You Were Loved is also very beautiful, I now find The Preacher's Wife to be ridiculously underrated; its mad how much you fawn over something, when its too late.

Wow.

Just when I thought I wasn't going to come across a Glee cover worth purchasing.

Whitney would be proud.

that clip again drives home why I hate Glee... must Kurt always be "one of the girls" :evil:

Give me Whitney's anyday

Whitney's voice has sent me on a trip to Heaven tonight. "I'm Your Baby Tonight", "You're Still My Man", and "Where You Are" have been slaying my ears. Such a gifted artist! :cry:

"Where You Are" gives me goosebumps. I also love "You're Still My Man". I can listen to "Whitney" album over and over again.

"My Love Is Your Love" and "Whitney" are my favorite Whitney albums. They are totally different styles, but I love these two both.

I really hate it when Glee makes the opposite sex of the original artist, sing a song. They also effed up XTina's Fighter:

of course they have to give the gay characters the stereotypically gay song... that song was so hot in every club in 1999 :lol:

by **Titan3510** » Sat Apr 21, 2012 2:01 am

How is "It's Not Right But It's Okay" a stereotypical gay song?

r u kidding? That and Believe were practically the most overplayed stereotypical songs in every gay club in the late 90s. The remix was a #1 smash on the dance charts months before radio and MTV started playing it.

Whitney even acknowledged the remixes popularity amongst gay men by doing a few pride events in 1999. That they have the gay guy on Glee doing it is so cliche and predictable.

I don't keep up with that kind of stuff... :lol:

"INRBIO" is one of my favorites from her. It has so much attitude and it's one of Darkchild's most unique productions IMO.
