Conversations With Marva: Take A Listen: Whitney Houston

  • regina · 3 months ago
    I went to the website to give it a listen and I must say I am so very disappointed. But I do give Whit an E for effort, I think this comeback was a hard one for her because we tend to be our own biggest critics.
    I do not like the cd and will not buy it, but I wish her all the best...
    from the time she came out I was a fan,
    You give good love,
    Saving all my love for you
    heartbreak hotel
    run to you
    where do broken hearts go
    greatest love of all
    I have nothing
    I will always love you...

    Sorry Marva, I can not in good consciousness buy this new farce of a cd...

    Ms. Regina,

    Notice I didn't say "buy"...I said listen...

    I have listened to the CD a couple of times and remain disappointed. I
    watched her on GMA and almost cried...it was so heartbreaking to hear her
    voice so broken...

    But I still have hope that she can pull it together...Oprah sent out a tweet
    that said she "blew the roof" off of Harpo studios...I'm sure it was with
    the aid of some tracks, but I'll watch and cry with everyone else...

    Marva, I didn't watch the GMA but I did catch the video on the internet Since everyone (including the morning radio show) was talking about it and aside from how she sounded she looked happy and healthy and her energy level was off the chart. So she appeared to feel good being out there again, so maybe that will encourage her to keep working on getting that voice better.
    We'll see!

    Although I was never a big Whitney Houston fan, I was happy when it was reported that she was working on a comeback CD. When Whitney's life hit the skids, a lot of people piled on and I didn't like the way she was being kicked while down. I received a copy of her new CD and it's not bad. My favorite songs are "Million Dollar Bill", "For the Lovers", and the title track.

    I heard that her tv comeback show was a disappointment too - I didn't hear it or see it. But Whitney has a voice and she will find it and I hope she doens't get torn to shreds by the celebrity dissing monsters out there.

    I'm also confused about where to find your OSF for today (9-4) so stop by mine and add a link!
