Description: Rumors of a greatest-hits package had been flying, but as millions of converts held their breath, Whitney Houston headed into the studio only to emerge--amid a flurry of drama screaming "diva" (a live Web broadcast of the international press conference revealing the album, and a veil of secrecy shrouding the new material)--with her first nonsoundtrack album in eight years. So is it worth all the hype and hoopla? Probably. There are no real surprises (typical ballads such as "You'll Never Stand Alone," obligatory writer-producer-singer cameos from Babyface, Wyclef Jean, Missy Elliott, Faith Evans, and Kelly Price--this time in a worthy attempt to slot into the late-'90s soul scene), but she does try to defend her marriage on the Elliott-produced "In My Business." Elliott's other effort, the slow-burning "Oh Yes" is a high point, but the hands-down driving force of this record is the multiplatinum, multi-octave power pairing of Houston with Mariah Carey on "When You Believe."

Reviews:
A Very Different Whitney-Vocally Amazing
I am a fan of Whitney Houston. When I purchased this album I didn't feel immediately in love with it. Over time it reflects another signature moment of this Amazing Talent Woman. There is no female vocalist today can touch Whitney. The only rare exceptions would be Fantasia, Monica and Mariah Carey, Shanice Wilson, Faith Hill, Faith Evans, Patti Labelle. I mean a vocalist that captures you with there vocals and you can actually cry when you hear them sing a song because the have capture the essence it touches your soul and heart as well. You can simply listen to their voice as they sing. That is simply a God Gifted talent. Some people have to work on it and develop that ability. There are not many female vocalist are in this ladies league. This album reflects a diffrent Whitney and it works for her. I love all the songs. It shows her diversity. She reflects her feelings and she captures it very well with this album. Some fans might be hestiate to embrace this other Whitney but, if you love her vocals it will grow on you over time. I love the following songs and why
1. It's Not Right But It's Okay -Glorious
2. Heartbreak Hotel - Faith Evans -She in these amazing talented ladies turn this song into anthem. Amazing vocals from Whitney, Faith and Kelly.
3. My Love Is Your Love - Whitney - amazing vocals
4. When You Believe - Mariah Carey Signature Whitney it really captures both of these talented ladies to come together in sing amazing song together.
5. If I Told You That -Attitude Whitney, vocally she present her self well
6. In My Business - Missy Elliott -Attitude Whitney, she delivers fiercely and vocally she captures this song. You can feel her pain that this is her signature song for this album
7. I Learned from the Best -Great Song and Vocally Wonderful
Whitney is Amazing and this album reflects her feelings at the time. I would encourage any fan of hers or someone who is looking to hear amazing talent to purchase. This is another side of this Amazing talent woman.
i love your love
I love this album, go head Whitney, the only song I would have left out is "When You Believe", I just dont like it, Hottest joint on this set has got to be "If I told You That" a different take on a DarkChild track. Second stand out cut and the one Whitney is probably feeling is "All in my Business", why Whitney? Cause your a crack head, I love you my little fiend, but seriously drop Bobby and leave the pipe with him.Take your own adivce and"Get it Back", another hot track on the album by Darkchild. It's not right but its okay, Hex Hector made the best dance remix of that song..and we all know about the other singels.As corny as it is I always have a special place for the Diane Warren pended ballads so "You'll never stand alone" is another song I never skip when I take a visit with "My love is your Love..Our love, 1 love...dont sleep and give the worlds most talented fiend a chance
One of Whitney's best packaged with bonus cd of hit remixes
If you bought the domestic release for this album, you got a good album. This import's bonus disc, though, makes it a real bargain! It offers the best of the remixes for the hit's on which the domestic only has the radio edits. The only way to get these remixes would have been to buy each maxi-single as they were released, but fortunately this import eliminates that need (and all the so-so remixes, gleaning the best for the bonus cd). The bonus cd is highly danceable. "My Love Is Your Love" is the Wyclef Jean remix & the Jonathon Peters' Tight Mix. A double dose of "It's Not Right, But It's Okay" is good, too (Thunderpuss 2000 Club Mix & Johnny Vicious' Radio Mix). And "Heartbreak Hotel" gets the Hector Hex Radio Mix treatment. This extra thirty minutes that gleans the best remixes of the domestic singles that were offered make this 2 cd set a true bonus. You're actually saving money if you consider the individual cost of each single. As if that's not enough, there's an extra track on the actual cd of a song unreleased domestically anywhere. If you like Whitney, you'll love these extras.
