I prepared my ‘Whitney’ post this morning and then logged on to find you had beaten me to it, with a very fitting selection of her music.
Few singers have been gifted with a voice as glorious as Whitney Houston's, and even fewer have perhaps treated their talent with the frustrating indifference she did toward the end of her life. Nevertheless she sold more records and received more awards than almost any other female pop star of the 20th century.
As a sentimental romantic but I shall never forget her performance in The Bodyguard.
This is an awesome tribute Allison, and very fitting. Whitney was a truly gifted vocalist, with an incredible range. Whitney's early music reflected her gospel roots, and little changed over the years, as it suited her.
Whitney's song, " I want to run to you " from the bodyguard soundtrack remains one of my all time favorites from her.
If you listen to her remake of Dolly Parton's " I will always love you " the first 45 seconds is just Whitney performing a capella.
Whitney also did an amazing performance at the Superbowl performing the American national Anthem.
Whitney truly had a voice that most can only aspire to. Well done Allison.
