Rumors of a greatest-hits package had been flying, but as millions of converts held their breath, Whitney Houston headed into the studio only to emerge--amid a flurry of drama screaming "diva" (a live Web broadcast of the international press conference revealing the album, and a veil of secrecy shrouding the new material)--with her first nonsoundtrack album in eight years. So is it worth all the hype and hoopla? Probably. There are no real surprises (typical ballads such as "You'll Never Stand Alone," obligatory writer-producer-singer cameos from Babyface, Wyclef Jean, Missy Elliott, Faith Evans, and Kelly Price--this time in a worthy attempt to slot into the late-'90s soul scene), but she does try to defend her marriage on the Elliott-produced "In My Business." Elliott's other effort, the slow-burning "Oh Yes" is a high point, but the hands-down driving force of this record is the multiplatinum, multi-octave power pairing of Houston with Mariah Carey on "When You Believe." --Rebecca Wallwork

Customer Reviews

The best singer
I have been a big fan of her for over 23 years now. I have been a number 1 fan since I was 6 months old. Now, I am 23 years old and her music still inspires me. This was a great album filled with classic rhythm and blues and today's r&b infused with hip hop.

Her best!
I have been listening to Whitney Houston since I was a girl in the 80s, and I am very familiar with her career. Out of all the albums I have owned, this is her best work! Many of the song versions on this album are impossible to find from other sources (such as the Walmart mp3 store and itunes). So if you want her best, buy this one!

A pretty solid experience from Whitney.
It's no classic but it's good enough.

My favorites are:
It's Not Right But It's Okay
I Was Made To Love Him
My Love Is Your Love

and When You Believe Feat. Mariah Carey

I like the beat to Oh Yes and have grown to like the song. Until You Come Back, written by Babyface himself is also notable. I Was Made To Love Him is good too. It's a very bouncy track. I don't care too much for You'll Never Stand Alone though.

3.8 stars. Good CD but I'm sure that one of her earlier releases is better. But if you enjoy R&B, then I fully recommend this CD.
