Just Whitney Houston, a track suit and that amazing voice.

I haven’t heard it in years and today’s world could sure use those sentiments! Thank you Benson; I had never heard Sandi Patty sing the National Anthem, and she was amazing! And thank you, Ken for that video of the incredible Whitney Houston, and for this wonderful forum that includes everything from movie/tv talk, to radio and baseball, occasionally politics, and even patriotism!Diane D.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-680348776749737282018-07-04T18:00:51.483-07:002018-07-04T18:00:51.483-07:00I remember watching this on a TV set in a store wi...I remember watching this on a TV set in a store window in our local mall. It was the Super Bowl during the Operation Desert Storm and I was beginning my first pregnancy and so afraid. 27 years later I am even more afraid. Happy 4th?

I saw Whitney in concert 30 years ago. Kenny G was the opening act. (Anyone remember him?)<br /><br />She certainly had so much talent. It is truly tragic that her life went in the direction it ultimately did.Janet Ybarranoreply@blogger.com
