I just heard about Whiyney on Tv. I can't believe it. Her music was such a part of my life especially in the eighties. What a voice. She was a master! I was really hoping that she would soon come back better than she had been for quite awhile. Such a loss.

It's a very sad loss, but I hope her life lessons will be absorbed by the up and coming artists, RIP Whitney, few have ever been able to carry a note like you.

Such a tragic loss. I had the honor of seeing and meeting her when I was a little girl while my dad was working on a production. The strength of her voice and her energy I will NEVER forgot. RIP Whitney...

May she rest in peace. Certainly one of the best. I am not trying to be disrespectful in any way here. Do any of you remember before she married Bobby Brown all the rumors that she was a lesbian? She had the "friend" that was I believe a friend of her childhood. The friend played basketball and was her constant companion. I wonder where this woman is tonight.
My condolances to Whitney's daughter, mother, her ex-husband, her entire family and all of the people, fans who loved her.

Whitney
There was a time when I was able to walk long distances. I chose to walk in a local cemetery. It was peaceful and serene albeit for a male in his 30's who obviously lost his wife at a young age. He had his car door open and blasting out of the speakers was Whitney's song I will Always Love You. It was hard to hear the song over this young man's wailing. In watching the tributes of Whitney last night and hearing that song it brought me back to a young man's lost. I wonder what he is feeling today as we all try to deal with this tragic lost.

Whitney Houston had an amazing range and depth in voice- one of the greatest we will ever know. Her ability to change keys in the middle of a song like it was routine was a vocal talent few have ever had.
Of course there is a lot of speculation about her death. We will have to wait for causation. Something on my mind is that due to her longterm coke use, her heart could have very well been damaged and it might end up she died of heart failure without any drugs in her system. I fear suicide as well because she was struggling so much with her music career comeback and dif lose some of her voice range. And her being an abused woman that obviously had poor self-esteem. yes, even someone as beautiful and talented as her can have low self-esteem- happens all of the time. Also, I hope to hell that she did not have one of the Hollywood docs to the stars that scripted her narcotics for sleep, etc. and her death was due to prescription drug abuse along with alcohol. Thinking about Heath Ledger and MJ (others) here. She struggled so much with getting clean & sober and being able to remain so. It is like this for some addicts especially if they never get to the emotional components of their addiction. And like so many stars, she could never get away from the media when in crisis. I feel really sad about this because it might be a story we have heard far too often about the deaths of music icons that have brought something extraordinary to their art. My heart goes out to her family and especially her young daughter. I hope people see beyond the addiction and poor choices in her life plus just plain being fragile at certain points and see that she was simply human dealing with things that for most people are not judged continually in the public eye. |

Rest In Peace Whitney Houston! You will be dearly missed.
My thoughts and prayers go out to her family I just heard on the news a little while ago, she passed in her hotel room hours before Clive Davis' Grammy party. They reported, finding prescription medication(s), but no illegal drugs were found.
