Whitney

Whitney Houston was one of my favorite artists growing up
The Greatest Love of All
How Will I Know
I'll Always Love You
1991 Superbowl National Anthem
and a slew of other great songs she sang as only she could
Then she met Bobby Brown
And it was a shame
He certainly isn't alone in the secret abuse that goes on behind the silver curtain
There are many, many more who have fallen to drugs and inner demons
Whitney has been gone for over eight years now
Bobby still lives on and is 51 now
Hopefully he is away from the drugs that destroyed his wife
And hopefully other will learn from this and find peace in this world without drugs
As Whitney so famously said, "Crack is Whack."

How much I loved to hear that angelic voice of departed Whitney.
I was in primary school still when I started to be very interested to foreign music.
Specially in English language.
First song of hers that I heard was "All At Once".
Later I started to follow her carrer.
Whitney created destiny in wrong direction.
She ruined her own life.
But, that was her choice.
Plenty of songs I cherish very much.
"Greatest Love Of All" is one beautiful anthem with clever and strong message amid strophes and refrain.
She will be forever alive thanks to her melodies and outstanding voice capacities.

To correct myself.
I started to follow carEEr...
These tiny keyboard letters are pretty much annoying.

Nice greeting!
