I have always enjoyed her music, but exactly one year ago this week, I lost my aunt to cancer. 'My Love is Your Love' was her parting song, and since that moment I have devoted so much time to familiarising myself with so many of her singles. I am so excited to share this love with you all.

Remember no -1's allowed.

Let's honour this incredible artist <3

Really excited to listen through this, I'm familiar with a lot of Whitney songs of course but there are a few I don't recognise, will be great to fill in the gaps!

cannot you add I Learned from the Best? that's one of my personal highlights and one of the few singles you didn't include
I would also add I Look to you and I didn't know my own strength, from her last album

Based on chart performance there are a lot of others we could add before 'I Look To You'! And 'I Didn't Know My Own Strength' I really wanted to include but it wasn't even a single!

The reason we limited it like this was because people are more likely to participate if the amount of songs isn't too onerous. We could easily add these, but then it becomes a "where do we draw the line" type affair. Hope that's ok! sad.gif


We can definitely use this thread to share our favourites away from her "Ultimate Collection" though <3

I Didn't Know My Own Strength is easily within my Whitney top 3. Such a poignant song to describe her journey. It's not a WOW VOCALS moment like her earlier songs but it feels so much more important to me.

This is going to look so stanny, but she's one of those artists where it's nigh on impossible to pick a fave or a top 5, because so many of the songs are incredible! Undoubtedly the greatest voice of her generation and possibly EVER, I just can't think of anyone who has or will be able to come even close to her vocally.

09 Saving All My Love For You
10 How Will I Know
10 Greatest Love of All
10 I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)
07.5 Didn't We Almost Have It All
09 So Emotional
09 Where Do Broken Hearts Go
07 Love Will Save the Day
11 One Moment In Time
08.5 I'm Your Baby Tonight
10 All the Man That I Need
10 I Will Always Love You
09 I'm Every Woman
10 I Have Nothing
10 Run To You
09 Queen of the Night
06.5 Exhale (Shoop Shoop)
06.5 Step By Step
09 When You Believe (Mariah Carey & Whitney Houston)
10 It's Not Right But It's OK
09 My Love Is Your Love
05 If I Told You That (Whitney Houston & George Michael)
10 Million Dollar Bill

I Wanna Dance really close to 11 but I decided One Moment In Time needs it more and it's like, my ULTIMATE karaoke song, I can't help but belt it out alongside Whitney when I hear it. I think if I had to pick my top 5 it'd be those two, It's Not Right, How Will I Know and either I Have Nothing or All The Man That I Need.

Thanks for kicking us off Slick! Such a good set of scores too, most songs are going to have huge averages when we're finished right?

edit: and Liam too, STAN HA!!

She was a superstar! I've seen The Bodyguard musical five times so I have to say, the songs that feature in the show score very highly for me here.
