From the beginning of the pop-rock jam I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me) to the final sustained notes of I Know Him So Well, every corner of Whitney is invigorated by the dynamism and momentum of Houston’s voice. At 23 years old, she was like a young athlete in peak form, operating in total control of an awe-inspiring gift. Whether on the uplifting energy of Love Will Save the Day or the simmering regret of Where Do Broken Hearts Go, her voice always leads the music in a gust of pure soul and exuberance.
