"The Voice" is back!

I was so happy to find out that one of the voices of my childhood is really back. And I'm talking of course about one of the greatest comebacks in musical history: Whitney Houston. Nicknamed "The Voice", she is as good as ever in her new album and her two new videos: "I Look To You" and "Million Dollar Bill". The album " I Look To You" landed on Billboard's #1 spot right on its day of launching: 31st August and everyone is thrilled to find out that her voice hasn't changed at all and that she looks as well as in her twenties.
Whitney's downfall began shortly after marrying the former rapper Bobby Brown, a real trouble-maker. Soon enough the rumors about Bobby beating her and convincing her to take drugs started. Even if Whitney denied at first all the accusations, it was easy to see that she wasn't the same: the good girl began to look thinner and thinner and she even canceled some of her concerts because her voice was damaged.
Gladly, she eventually divorced Bobby Brown in 2007, gaining full custody of her daughter and did some rehab sessions. She now seems to be back in shape and hopefully she will stay this way for a long time.
The new album has her same well-known style: sometimes powerful, inspired from gospel songs, with a strong voice,and sometimes playful and joyful.



"I Look To You" is obviously biographical. A very strong and powerful song, probably about her faith in God.



"Million Dollar Bill" is a danceable song, really catchy, more modern, but its still written 'Whitney Houston" all over it.
