ReplyDeleteShe sound beutiful, I heard a little at the end. The only thing is she was reading the words to the song which threw her off.
ReplyDeleteRIP Whitney Houston. It's amazing that, as a child, you had such an amazing voice which you still kept even as a mega star that she were and still is. For me, her death feels as real as Michael Jackson's even though didn't know either one of them personally. She will be missed and my prayers go out to her family, especially Bobbi Kristina.
