Dolly Parton is going to have a good month.
Good thing I don’t even listen to anything on the radio except news/talk, we’re going to be inundated with Whitney-music for at least a couple of weeks.
Whitney Houston to star in her new film. The Bodybag.
Her daughter was rushed to the hospital this morning and was treated for anxiety.

It will be interesting to see what kind of bump Barry the Kenyan Guy is going to get in the polls by exploiting her death.
Just today I heard her (knowingly) for the first time in my deep discount grocery store. She had a set of pipes, true, and a hysterical, operatic, uncontrolled style of singing. She was literally screaming in that song blasted from the ceiling. Yuck! Some listeners like it, OK.
Why her passing deserves a dozen threads on this forum is beyond me.
Like FINGERNAILS on a CHALKBOARD! I always hoped she would marry some rich sheik who would take her to luxurious palace, far away from any microphones, and she would live there happily and quietly for the rest of her life.
I downloaded a copy for my 14 year old daughter to listen to...she had no idea who Whitney Houston was. I still think she had a wonderful voice - and she showed it at the beginning of ‘I will always love you’ - before she goes into her loud, ‘listen to me I’m a diva’ wailing.
She is also a good caution on how success uncoupled from morality is a disaster.
Cause I I I I I I I I I I I I, will alwaaaaaaaays, smoke craaaaaaaaaaaaaack!
