 One of the best November 30, 2009
Freddie Manuel (Bronx, NY)
Amazing voice. Superb project. "Where You Are" should have been released as a single. Would have been a hit.
I love it! September 22, 2009

I've heard about a hundred arguments for why this album shouldn't be good, including attacks on the dated 80's production style and cheesy song selection. All I have to say is WHATEVER! I LOVE this album! I've had it in my collection since it first came out and I think this one gets better over time. Sure, I hit a period of self-importance when I looked at this album with disdain and said, "Geez, I can't believe I used to listen to that!" But that was my fault, not the album's fault. To be fair , "Love Is A Contact Sport" is pretty damn corny. But in context of the album as a whole I think it works. And a lot of these songs just blow me away... "Just The Lonely Talking Again", "Where You Are", "You're Still My Man", "Where Do Broken Hearts Go" are all beautiful, classic tracks. And Whitney's version of the Isley Brothers "For The Love Of You" is tantalizing, beckoningly gorgeous. Her backing vocals on that track are sublime, and I love the arrangement. The closing track with Mom is very touching too. The hits are great but I'm sure we've all heard them a million times. For me it's all about the album tracks, and these are fantastic. The original lp vinyl sounds great and I would recommend hearing it that way.
Dayum.....Just thinking about the past!!!!!!!! September 6, 2009
Warren H. Burns (Philadelphia, PA)
To just take the time out to listen to this CD after the release of her current CD " I Look To You", it almost makes you wanna cry. We never really miss something until it is totally and completely gone. I have to say that when Whitney was in her prime she was the actual best at her craft. Perfect melodies, lyrics and hooks that would compliment her voice that would just take you sailing in your mind with those notes, background fills and the powerful finishes that would captivate and make you appreciate what I felt was the best that the business had at that time. I love this CD from beginning to the end. No disrespect to what happenned to her careeras a result to drugs and cigarettes, but Whitney was responsible for Whitney and noone, but no one put a gun up to her head and said smoke drugs to damage your money maker. I find this to be real shame that this CD is off the hook and the new cd is a total and complete joke to real Whitney fan. Like I said earlier.....it makes you say ...Dayum, just thinking about the past, because the present and future of Whitney is done. This was her at her best.
i miss the old whitney... August 31, 2009

man, i sure do miss those days. her music and her voice used to be sooo great. i just love this album. this was her best album next to her debut. I absolutely love all the songs on the album. I grew up hearing Whitney's music through my Dad. he enjoys her music but he doesn't seem to talk about her these days. i've been listening to new her album which came out today and it's so sad to hear that voice don't sound good as it used to. it doesn't sound so strong and feminine anymore. now she she sounds like some 60 year old man trying to make a comeback. it's brings a tear to my eye that everything has gotten bad since the new millenium began. it's like the people who used to be so popular and good have now deteriorated and lost their appeal. i would definately recommend this album if you're looking for a good Whitney album. it's all in here.
1. "I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)-i love this song. it's classic whitney as her best. it's such a vibrant and happy song. 5/5
2. "Just the Lonely Talking Again"-i love it in the beginning where she says "chaaa". i love the jazz and soul in this song. it's breathtaking. "are you really ready for love boy..or it's it just the lonely talking again". 5/5
3. "Love Will Save the Day"-one my favorites.
4. "Didn't We Almost Have It All"-i love this song!!!!! it's definately her best on the track!!! it's sounds pretty similar to "all at once" which is from her debut album. 5/5
5. "So Emotional"-love it. 5/5
6. "Where You Are"-it's a shame that people today don't make this kind of good music anymore. 5/5
7. "Love Is a Contact Sport"-it has like this 50s feel to it. it kinda reminds me of Madonna's True Blue. it has such much sassiness to it 5/5
8. "You're Still My Man"-i love the way she sings in this song. "you're still my my man...nothing can change that." and hearing female voices echoed in the background makes this song sounds so perfect. 5/5
9. "For the Love of You-very romantic. 5/5
10. "Where Do Broken Hearts Go"-another great song. 5/5
11. "I Know Him So Well"-whitney and her mom sounded so great together. they both have really good voices. 5/5
