Rating: I am terribly sorry to have to respond to an impudent person like the author of the review on Whitney Houston signed "Ilpazzo". I emphasize to have because after what I read, it is inevitable not to counter such idiocy. A singer like Houston deserves everyone's approval; her recordings are not solely based on extraordinary vocal abilities, but are the perfect blend of singing and musicality, where by musicality I mean a combination of rhythm, melody, sweetness, charm, and pleasantness; qualities that make a track complete at 360 degrees. And that is exactly how I believe all the pieces of this extraordinary singer are. Regarding the fact that she abused her vocal cords with tons of marijuana and various drug mixes, it seems appropriate to consider the lexicon used as inadequate and heavily embarrassing to mock moments of weakness in which all too many people nowadays find themselves. It is always reiterated that actors, presenters, singers, and anyone else involved in that much-coveted circle, which is the world of entertainment, are nothing more than "common" people with only the advantage of having certain notoriety and therefore, as human beings, why is it not allowed for them to make mistakes? None of us knows the reasons for this breakdown and therefore we are not entitled to judge such behaviors, also being aware that this problem touches everyone a little, starting from adolescence, passing through youth, and then reaching the world of adults. But it is not my intention to dwell on this subject, so I return to my previous arguments.
The "hammer" of the review written by "Ilpazzo" repeatedly strikes on the fact that the 1990 album is "very boring." Faced with such an assertion, I cannot disagree since I myself am a passionate "fan" of Whitney. Without penalizing any of her tracks, because they all deserve worthy 10 and praise, I am resolutely convinced that each of them is capable of involving and transporting the feelings, emotions, and passions of those who listen; my astonishment arises from the fact that the one to deny such vocal prowess is someone who claims to be a lover of tender romantic ballads and melancholic songs and at this point I spontaneously ask myself why of such a claim if it then finds no concreteness in the listening of such passionate, and romantic pieces as those of Houston. Perhaps the thing, the only thing, that is devoid of contradictions and perhaps finds the highest manifestation of coherence from the critic is his signature: "Ilpazzo"? certainly? only a madman would be capable of scribbling similar idiocies so brashly, about a person who has had a huge triumph and who, despite the static nature of these last four years, has given us, and will always continue to do so, indescribable emotions that guide our strongest memories?
Lastly, I would ask to reconsider what was said so that we can realize how truly tangible the fragility of man is before incitements of various kinds and that a person cannot be judged solely by their mistakes because these are the ones that make us fall and the same ones that, once upright again, prevent us from stumbling again?
In conclusion, I refute what "Ilpazzo" said about the lack of sound involvement of the singer W. Houston, and assert that in my opinion she is one of the best and most excellent singers of our times?

01 I'm Your Baby Tonight (04:13)
From the moment I saw you
I went outta my mind
Though I never believed in
Love at first sight
But you got a magic boy

Well you gotta, you gotta way

Chorus:
Whatever you want from me

You've given my ecstasy

You're my first time
I feel like an angel
Who just started to fly

03 All the Man That I Need (04:10)
I used to cry myself to sleep at night
But that was all
Before he came
I thought love had to hurt to turn out right
But now he's here
It's not the same
It's not the same
Chorus:
He fills me up
He gives me love
More love than I've ever seen
He's all I've got
He's all I've got in this world
But he's all the man that I need
And in the morning when I kiss his eyes
He takes me down
And rocks me slow
And in the evening when the moon is high
He holds me close
And won't let go
He won't let go
(Chorus)
05 Anymore (04:23)
Anymore
I believe in roses
But only from the heart
And if it's not sincere baby then
I don't want no part
I believe in one love baby,
True monogamy
What I don't know can't hurt me
That's not the way I see
If you believed in me
You won't mess around
It's not like I don't know
You've been with every girl in town
You got a lot of nerve to think
I just close my eyes
While you walk aorund so full of it
I give you my surprise
Chorus: (repeat twice)
I don't need your kinda love
I don't need your kinda trust
I don't want you, anymore
I don't need your kinda kisses
I don't want to be your Mrs.
I don't want to anymore
I believe that angels
Watch everything we do
And all the wrong you're doing
Just might come back on you
I believe in phone calls
When you're not by my side
Especially when it's lonely
In the middle of the night
If you believe that true love
Is only made in bed
Lord have mercy on you
Chivalry is dead
You got a lot of nerve to think,
To think that I'm still down
While you've taken me for granted
Boy I'm through, I'm outta town
Repeat Chorus
So baby (so baby)
You can kiss this girl goodbye
I'm through with ya
Movin on with my life
No more pain, no more fears
I'm movin on, I'm keepin on
I'm through with all the tears
Your kinda love
Your kinda trust
I don't want you, don't need you
Can't have you
Your kinda kisses (yeah)
To be your Mrs.
I don't want you (sing it for us)
Repeat Chorus:
Don't need, don't want you
Don't need, don't want
Don't need that kind of love
Don't want your kind of love
Don't need it
Don't want it
06 Miracle (05:42)
How could I throw away a miracle
How could I face another day
It's all of my doing
I made a choice
And today I pay
My heart is full of pain
How could you understand
The way I feel
How could you relate to so much pain
Seems as though nothing can comfort me
So today I pray
That someone should listen for
Chorus:
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
The choice is yours
There's a miracle in store
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
A voice of love is crying out
Don't throw love away
There's a miracle in store
How could I let go of a miracle
Nothing could ever take its place
Thought I was looking
Out for myself
Now it seems the pain
Is all that I have gained
I wonder if I could be your miracle
I wonder if I could spare you pain
Seems as though nothing will comfort me
Less today I pray
That you should come listen for
Chorus:
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
The choice is yours
There's a miracle in store
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
A voice of love is crying out
Don't throw love away
There's a miracle in store
Don't ever throw away your miracle
Don't let it slip away
Nothing should matter for
Chorus:
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
The choice is yours
There's a miracle in store
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
A voice of love is crying out
Don't throw love away
There's a miracle in store for you
07 I Belong to You (05:31)
In a world when dreams are few
You've got me baby, I've got you
You're the on that makes me feel brand new
Sometimes love can wear you out
Chill your soul baby, make you doubt
That you'll never find the one that's true
All of my life I've longed for this
Someone who makes me happy
Let's seal this moment with a kiss
I wanna know
And nothings gonna stop me cause
Chorus
I've been to the bottom
But I'm back on top
And I'm feelin' the rhythm
As we start to rock
When ya get down to it
I belong to you
Though I'm not afraid to let it show
I'll tell the world I want everyone to know
There's nobody does me liek you do
All of my love is yours tonight
I live to make you happy
Nothin has ever felt so right
I want it all
And nothin's gonna stop me 'cause'
Chorus
Bridge
When you touch me tender
And you reach my soul
When I start to weaken
And I lose control
When you get down to it
I belong to you
Chorus

By Ilpazzo
"If Whitney Houston’s aim was only to showcase her voice, it would have been better to record her albums a cappella!"
"Just listen twice in a row to 'All the Man That I Need' and a razor blade or a kitchen knife by your side could become really dangerous!"
