July 24, 200915 yr "I Look To You" premiered on U.S. radio yesterday. It's rumoured that this will be released along with "Million Dollar Bill", with "I Look To You" probably being catered to AC radio. Anyway, this is a strong ballad from Whitney. It's way better than "I Didn't Know My Own Strength". Based on the snippet, I thought it'd be a little boring, but it's a strong lyric and Whitney sings it with such conviction. I am dyring to hear "Million Dollar Bill" though!
July 24, 200915 yr she sounds so much better in the clip for 'I Look To You' cant wait to hear it in full
July 26, 200915 yr Loving this at the moment! Great track and definitely better than I Didn't Know My Own Strength (whilst the latter is still good, it's certainly not single material), looking at the release schedule though she's cutting things pretty fine. August has crept up and will be upon us within a few days, then it's 4 weeks or so til the albums release and there's still no clearly defined single (having not heard the rumoured single!), not much airplay, no video, no promotion as of yet. It's still a big mystery even so soon before the release, I know it's to build anticipation but come on we've been waiting since 2002. Throw us a bone here! :lol:
July 26, 200915 yr Love "I Look to You" - Miss Houston is officially back! :D Really, really want to hear "Mill Dollar Bill" though!
July 26, 200915 yr I really hope Million Dollar Bill is in the same sort of vein as Whatchulookinat... I know it was pretty much universally panned but I must admit it's one of my favourite Whitney tracks EVER. The lyrics, the intro, the attitude (albeit crazy!) - amazing! It's parent album was quite the mess though.

I love "Whatchulookinat"! ^_^ Anyway, "I Look To You" is apparently the official single that will be sent to all Urban formats, whereas "Million Dollar Bill" will be released to Pop. I think having two singles released is a good idea. Hell, "I Look To You" has even gained spins on Pop, so it's a nice song to re-introduce her to the music world.
July 26, 200915 yr Brilliant stuff! :D We should be hearing Mill Dollar Bill REALLY soon then all things considered. I feel blasphemous for even thinking this but something inside me is making me look forward to Whitney more than Mariah. :o

"ILTY" is the official single to urban formats. We plan to release "MDB" to pop formats later this week. We are waiting on some final pop test results. - Richard
July 27, 200915 yr :w00t: I've never been so much excited for anyone else...I must listen to these 2 new tracks :cheer:
July 27, 200915 yr Author Oh I'm so glad about M$B! I Look To You definitely isn't strong enough to lead the album alone.
July 28, 200915 yr Whitney Houston's Album Moved Up to August 31st Release (New York, NY -July 28, 2009) Fueled by the continuous excitement from last week's much-buzzed about Whitney Houston album listening events in New York and Los Angeles, Arista Records has moved the release date of I Look To You up to August 31st.

July 28, 200915 yr Author I'm not sure what they're on about; it was always scheduled for an August 31st release! Unless they've bumped it up a day in the US but I can't imagine they would since it'd debut with only one day's sales in that case... We might be hearing M$B on friday apparently. :D
July 29, 200915 yr Author Oh I just realised why they brought it forward a day. Grammys submission. :heehee:
July 29, 200915 yr Oh I just realised why they brought it forward a day. Grammys submission. :heehee: I knew that instantly! Bingo! :P
August 3, 200915 yr Oh can somebody just leak the damned single already, I am getting impatient! :arrr:
August 3, 200915 yr Author Tell me about it. I Look To You is going on iTunes tomorrow... it's as if they just forgotten about Mill.
