It always amazes me how Grestest Hits records seem to come to play, from anywhere in the world. Yet, there are some that work great, but there are others that aren't worth itselves in their value in gold. That even happens to some of the best singers out there. For Whitney Houston, she has definitely made a staple voice, into a nearly 20 year legacy that has made so many records, and influenced so many artists all over. Sadly, even though she has suffered from tabloid melees and substance bouts, she has survived. This hits collection may not however. The Artist Collection: a import series of songs from Arista acts is like the U.S. platinum & Gold Collection. The songs on the Whitney Houston are consistent from her five records, the two self-titled records Whitney Houston & Whitney, I'm Your Baby Tonight, My Love Is Your Love, and Just Whitney. The songs range adequately well, with a lot of good staple songs from Whitney including You Give Good Love, The Greatest Love Of All, Hold Me with Teddy Pendergrass, Saving All My Love For You, It's Not Right But Its Okay, and I Wanna Dance With Somebody. Yet, there are some great songs here, there were just a lot of good songs that really were not included here that should've been here. Especially from her soundtrack work with Waiting To Exhale, The Preacher's Wife & The Bodyguard. This turns out to really be a harsh dissapointment, with some of Whitney Houston's best songs overshadowed including I Will Always Love You, I Have Nothing, Exhale (Shoop Shoop), When You Believe from The Prince Of Egypt, I Believe In You & Me, and Heartbreak Hotel just to name a few. All in all, Whitney Houston is a magnificent singer, but this collection really isn't worth the voice this diva has made. Instead, I suggest you buy the import version of her 2000 The Greatest Hits Record. It is a much better purchase than this album.
