Remembering Whitney Chapter 1 and 2 Review

Google Image

Today, I received Cissy Houston's book in the mail. So far, I have read chapter 1 and 2. Chapter 1 was about the last time Cissy saw Whitney, but chapter 2 was a better chapter. I knew and could feel everything Cissy was talking about, because how she grew up is kind of the way my mother grew up. Like Cissy, my mother grew up in hard times and came from a family of fourteen. Cissy's mother had eight children. While reading about Cissy's family, if I had not known any better, I would have thought that I was reading about my own family. Cissy had an Aunt named Juanita and so did I on my mother's side. Cissy described her father, and the description of him sounded like my great great grandmother's father. The way Cissy described herself as a little girl was kind of the way my mother described herself as a little girl. Cissy's mom had to battle with sickness and so did my mom's mother. Reading about Cissy and her family made me wonder. I enjoyed reading chapter 2 titled , "A Child of Newark".

Whitney & Celine

From YouTube

Celine: I can't sing it like you Whitney. But if I may, in celebration of everything that you did for me, and for so many other artists, by setting the bar so high, I'd like to sing one of my truly favorite Whitney songs. A song that says as much about you as it does about all of us.


 

Whitney Houston - Lover for Life

From YouTube

Lover for Life is a great song. Whitney did a great job singing it Live in South Africa. Her back up singers, dancers, and musicians were great too. I do not believe that it was one of her greatest hits, but I think it should have been. It is said that the song was dedicated to Nelson Mandela.

Lip Sync or Not Whitney Still the Best ( Star Spangled Banner)

Have you been hearing the news on Beyonce lip sync? I don't know why people make such a big deal out of the Star Spangled Banner. It is just a song. It is said that Beyonce used a pre-record to sing it. It's really no big deal, and Beyonce's performance was fine. The Star Spangled Banner is one song I will never sing if I were to become a singer.


 As I watched the news, they had to bring up Whitney Houston's name as they talked about Beyonce singing the Star Spangled Banner. It is said that Whitney did not actually sing the Star Spangled Banner as well. Lip Sync or Not, Whitney is still the best, and no one has ever sung it the way Whitney has done. If Whitney used a pre-record to perform, it was a beautiful pre-record. Why don't people just leave some things alone? Everybody loved Whitney's performance. So why don't we just leave it as it is?

Whitney loved all of her fans. She said so on Twitter when she was alive. Whenever I'm on Twitter, I think about her account. Sometimes I just write a little note there that I miss her.
