Re: New Whitney Album/Song/Performance/Nominations [Mega-Merged Thread]

I'll make post #500 on this thread, since this song popped up on the iPod today.

Wow -- I loooove that song man!

...."Memories"; Whitney Houston's very first recording at the tender age of 17. Wow. That voice. That tone. So beautiful! New York's newspaper The Village Voice called this "One of the most gorgeous ballads you've ever heard" -- and they couldn't be more right! Gorgeous indeed. Hauntingly beautiful.

I think Call You Tonight and Like I Never left( the new version) should be the next singles I believe she could get some of the younger generation with those songs.

Yeah, definitely "Call You Tonight" HAS to be a single. I'm hoping it's either the next single or the single AFTER the next single. I'm kinda torn between "Call You Tonight" and "Worth It" being the next single. Can't make up my mind on which one I would want more. I'd be happy with either one tho!

Whitney Houston's "Million Dollar Bill" still hanging in there at the top on the Urban chart! MDB clearly still doesn't want to give up...LOL. Excluding the holidays, this may be the reason why Whit's label hasn't commissioned another single yet because of MDB's continued success here. If you recall, the song already previously reached #1, and also reached #1 on the Dance Club chart!

Whitney Houston is back on drugs, worried pals fear

Whitney Houston's recent erratic behavior has friends fearing she’s using drugs again and will wreck her comeback.

The pop diva – who’s publicly admitted to battling drugs for years – has been on top of the charts with a new CD, but she’s now displaying the same sketchy behavior that blighted her once blazing hot career, say insiders.

“Everyone is worried about her,” revealed a source. “Whitney seems to go from being a nervous wreck to being completely out of it in a short period of time – just like she did when she was freebasing and using crack cocaine.

“She is still drinking and with Whitney, alcohol and drugs have always gone hand-in-hand. She’s worked so hard to get back on top. It would be tragic for it to go up in smoke because she can’t stay clean.”

Now, under pressure to continue her comeback, Whitney appears tense and overanxious, said the source, adding: “You can’t help worrying that she’s slipped back into some of her bad habits.”

For more details on Whitney's erratic behavior, pick up the new issue of The ENQUIRER.

^ That's pretty much all you need to know.

She better not mess up before she's supposed to do her concert here.

Re: Whitney Houston is back on drugs, worried pals fear

Oh no...

I LOVE Whitney -- and just wish her the best...

I cannot IMAGINE what PRESSURE she is under -- But I DO UNDERSTAND how DRUGS can SEEM an EASY way out from that pressure...

I HOPE that she has some GOOD friends to convince her otherwise...

And I ask the TABLOIDS to PLEASE give her a little SPACE...

Come on Whitney!!!

Re: Whitney Houston is back on drugs, worried pals fear

Plus, Aussie's are notoriously hard on concert performances...

I hear they boo'ed Britney off the stage for lip-synching...


GOOD for them !!

That makes about as much sense as booing Mcdonald's for serving you a cheeseburger. If anyone needs to be booed, it's them for paying Lord knows how much to watch a singer who pretends to sing.... pretend to sing. Were they expecting her to unmask a Celine Dionesque vocal ability after YEARS of... not really singing?

The Enquirer is hardly a reputable source.

Indeed. I wish the URL had been inserted before the article. It would have saved me the time reading it.

What comeback? Just cause you put out a CD doesn't mean you're relevant.

Re: Whitney Houston is back on drugs, worried pals fear

It's a comeback if the label says it's a comeback.

But, to quote a friend, if the Enquirer said the sky was blue, I'd go outside and check.
