Whitney Houston "Feel So Good"

Never understood why this never made it on to the "I'm Your Baby Tonight" album and was instead relegated as a B-side to the vinyl and CD singles. IMO, one of Nippy's best songs. I remember a lot of black radio stations had this song in heavy rotation. music

It sounds like it was producted/written by Angela Winbush.

This is my first time hearing this, did she record any other non-lp b-sides?

It was written and produced by Bryan Loren. Bryan, has written songs for, MJ, Vesta and Sting.

Actually, Narada Michael Walden produced it. He and Nippy arranged it.

Never heard any of these before either, true to form. Wow, nice findings!

This was only released in Japan.

Forgot about this one:

In a way, it's a shame Whitney grew too big for Jermaine. They had great musical chemistry. She's a much better singer (understatement of the year), but she had that Marvin-like ability to make duets work despite the obvious talent gap.
