I never realized that until recently.

Yeah, campy and silly!

I would have to say my favorite is probably "So Emotional". Upbeat without over doing it.

I don't think there is one Whitney song I like either. Back in the 80s, my friends used to compare Whitney and Janet Jackson and I would always choose Janet in a second. She was edgier musically and later lyrically and visually. Whitney's music was always too bland and conservative for me.

This song is still heartbreaking and beautiful to me.

sextonseven said:

Well she's not bland anymore....although her last album was pretty boring for a crazed out crack fiend.

VinnyM27 said:

I'll admit that. Her image is about as bland as a train wreck these days, but her music still does absolutely nothing for me.

"Saving All My Love For You" and "I Wanna Dance With Somebody".

The latter is so powerfully uptempo and fun, and even a little funky. I know vainandy hates anything Whitney, but if I were to guess a song of hers that he hated the least or WOULD hate the least, "IWDWS" would be it.

I guess you`re right, but it`s a guilty pleasure

i wanna dance with somebody

"Bland" and "conservative" are excellent descriptions of her. Two more descriptions are "dull" and "adult contemporary".

There's absolutely no comparing her to Janet Jackson. Janet's music is fun, dancable, and funky....well at least it used to be. Putting Janet and Shitney together in the same concert would be like the old Christmas shows we used to have in elementary school. Janet would have all the kids clapping and having a good time with songs like "Jingle Bells" and "Deck The Halls". Then, Shitney would come out just like the teacher's pet in an angel costume singing something boring like "Do You Hear What I Hear". All the kids would be yawning and all the teachers would be saying "isn't she just precious".

*****DEAD*****

Wrong! If someone were to put a gun to my head, tie me up, and force me to choose my choice of torture, I would probably choose "So Emotional".

"I Wanna Dance With Somebody" sounds so similar to "How Will I Know" which gives me visions of a damn cheerleader thinking about a football player and pulling each petal off a flower...."if he loves me....if he loves me not".

vainandy said:

On HWIK, she just screams - it's very jarring. HOW WILL I KNOWWWWW!!!!. I want to slap her every time I hear that song.

vainandy said:

Eh.. I stand corrected, then.

If I had known she was eventually going to get on crack, I would have written her a letter and tried to persuade her to start hanging with Rick James. Hell, he would have put some funk in her bones.

vainandy said:

Even Rick James couldn't funkify her. Maybe George Clinton? Maybe. Probably not.

WHITNEY DOES NOT USE CRACK!!! DIDN`T ANYONE SEE THE DIANE SAWYER INTERVIEW?

Are you talking about the interview she did a few years ago shortly after she did The Jacksons Anniversary Show? That one was hilarious. She could barely talk. She said she had a "cold". The only answers she would give when asked about drugs was...."I like to party".

vainandy said:

Nah, he means the one where she said she didn't take crack because "crack is wack".

vainandy said:

Yes, she did make a rather bad impression, but she looked amazing, as always

I don't think anyone could put some funk in her. It would be the other way around..."Glenda The Good Witch Of The North" would raise her magic wand and drain the funk out of them. Remember, Bobby Brown was pretty funky with stuff like "My Perogative" and "Don't Be Cruel" before he hooked up with her.

BEST FUCKING WHITNEY SONG EVER. She shower her ass on that song.

DynamicSavior said:

I didn't see that one. I guess next she'll start saying "Just Say No".

"First of all, let's get one thing straight. Crack is cheap. I make too much for me to ever smoke crack. Let's get that straight, okay? We don't do crack. We don't do that. Crack is whack."



I bought a copy of the interview on Ebay, but i think it was missing the end

Wait a minute, I did see that one! I remember the part about "crack is cheap".

VoicesCarry said:

damn, what the fuck was i thinking. *shows. I'm not even gonna edit it. It's too late. Ya'll already saw it.

I'm sure she probably smokes her crack out of a pipe. I just can't see someone like her smoking it out of a can.

DIANE SAWYER:
You know that as we sit here and talk . . .

WHITNEY HOUSTON:
Yeah.

D.S
Everybody watching this . . .

W.H
Yeah.

D.S
Is going to be staring at you, physically.

W.H
Yeah.

D.S
And they're going to be saying, how thin is she now?

W.H
Yeah.

D.S
How, how many bones can we see? Is she sick? And how sick is she?

W.H
I'm not sick, Diane. I am not sick. Let's get that straight. I'm not sick. Okay? I've always been a thin girl. I'm not going to be fat, ever. Let's get that straight. Whitney is not going to be fat, ever. Okay?

D.S
The Michael Jackson VH-1 appearance. I'm going to show you the picture.

W.H
Well, that's a bad shot.

D.S
Well, it may be a bad shot, but this is real. I mean, the, the bones. That's real.

W.H
Yeah, my bones, yeah. I'm, I'm 5'7" and thin. I can understand what you mean.

D.S
But that's not just thin.

W.H
No? What is it, Diane, tell me. Do you know?

D.S
It's scary thin.

W.H
I can believe what you, what you feel. I can believe that. But do you really know? Do you really know?

D.S
No, you know.

W.H
Thank you
