New Whitney Houston - I Didn't Know My Own Strength

I love it

P.S. No smart mouf, Ms.Andrea

Love is just like the faucet
It turns off and on
Sometimes when you think it's on baby
It has turned off and gone

Have to say I'm impressed. Of course people still are trying to hold on to 1985-1992 Whitney but I don't mind this at all. Least she's surviving. Good pop ballad. Glad she's back.

Thanks, Harle.

nice song but she sounds really really tired that my own throat hurts just listening to her

but didn't she already try that theme/formula with that On My Own song and it didn't work?

I love the fact that she didn't exceed her vocal limits, she's working within her "recent" vocal range and she gave emotional depth to the song, which made it a winner in my book.

I don't even care that it sounds like it was written by wack ass Diane Warren,,,,but make no mistake, I'd settle with Nippy singing for Diane instead of QueeNY-Yo

well not jumping up and down over this song but I hope her comeback is successful

I kinda like it. i was a bit worried about what it'd be like. But i like it and am lookin forward to the album.
August 1st.

She lost her voice.

i like it but it sounds like a Fantasia outtake.

---------------------------------
Funny and charming as usual

i like the raspyness of her voice too aisha. i just find the song to be too big for her current vocal shape, which clearly shows as it starts building up for the climax.

they could've at least given her an AC ballad that enhances the beauty of what she's got left of her range, rather than pointing out what she's lost from it

You're 10 years late

I like the song, don't love it. Can't wait for her album to come out.

Whitney have been singing the same "proud" theme since Greatest Love Of All.

I'm not bothered by it all. And I love the "edge" in her voice, its a quality that clearly wasn't in her music previous to "My Love Is Your Love", only now its more pronounced.

I love raspy/husky voices

Of course, I'm a Liberal! I'm an American, damn it!

This country was founded on the premise of Liberty and Justice for ALL...remember?

My wallet is STILL on hiatus!

That's the voice and song of a survivor! She sent herself to hell but she brought herself back to be able to sing about it when others were planning her memorial! I ain't mad at her at all, as long as she stays clean and focused!

Least this song has more value than "Try It On My Own" did, that's when she didn't know HOW to do it on her own but now it's a new day. Go Whitney!

Try It On My Own,,,,with Bobby Brown emerging from the shadows in an imitation of a REAL LIFE pimp riiiiight.

Not bad. But all that crack really f--ked up her voice!

not bad

I kinda dig the way her voice has, uhh, "aged." That she doesn't sound like she used to doesn't bother me. The song, on the other hand, is just Typical Whitney, survivor stuff. She better have a good "Kiss my asssss!" song on there somewhere.
