hmmm…..
“So good-bye …” Whitney Houston sang those words in the song, “I Will Always Love You” at the Grammy’s in 1993. She waved her hand as she sang it as if it was a premonition of things to come. It was a stunning performance and crowned her as Top Diva, if she wasn’t that already. And now Whitney Houston is gone. Early reports say drugs and alcohol took her away from us. When you watch her sing on the videos recorded when she was at the top of her game, she seems so full life; she looks as if nothing could ever bring her down. But it did.
I don’t know about you, but I have missed Whitney. I missed her a long time before her death. Tragically, while claiming on an interview that “crack is whack”; she found out that crack as well as many other illegal drugs are powerful and menacing even to those who seem to be bigger than life itself. Whitney tried many times to make a come back. I believe that she truly wanted to kick her habit; I have to believe that, otherwise drugs and the evil they bring wins.
But Whitney lives on. Her music will always inspire us. We can always watch her sing her stunning version of “The Star Spangled Banner” at the Super Bowl. Her Grammy performance of “I Will Always Love You” is available on video any time we want to see it.
And, Whitney, we will always love you!
hmmm…..
