A former model, singer and actress, Houston starred in The Bodyguard in 1992. The film's original soundtrack won the 1994 Grammy Award for album of the year, and became the world's best-selling soundtrack. Its lead single, "I Will Always Love You", became one of the best-selling singles in music history.
Undoubtedly, she was one of the best-selling artists with the most striking opera voice. Despite a sad history of domestic issues, alleged drug abuse and scandals, the diva has returned. The come-back album, “I Look to You,” released Tuesday (Malaysian time), revealed her husky, vehement voice applied on some catchy and pleasing new songs.
The New York Daily News, however, sounded out a cautionary note: “Whitney still possess that broad range and respectable force. And she gets to apply it well here. But there's no getting around the fact that something key is gone. Namely, her genius” Is that gobbledygook or what?
So, do listen to the album yourself and feel the magic of this diva yet again.
