About
From the beginning of the pop-R&B jam “I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)” to the final sustained notes of “I Know Him So Well,” every corner of <i>Whitney</i> is invigorated by the dynamism and momentum of Houston’s voice. At 23 years old, she was like a young athlete in peak form, operating in total control of an awe-inspiring gift. Whether on the uplifting energy of “Love Will Save the Day” or the simmering regret of “Where Do Broken Hearts Go,” her voice always leads the music in a gust of pure soul and exuberance.
