My Love Is Your Love - Whitney Houston

Advantages: Great lyrics, singer and producers
Disadvantages: Hard to keep the standard throughout

...for the next track, "In My Business", but I am afraid her addition on the song left it a little flat for me, and would have been better if had stayed on the other side of the microphone. A great ballad next with a certain oooomph! "I Learned From The Best". A woman gets her revenge by giving an ex some of his own treatment. Whitney's voice is amazing on this song, and the video that goes with it is great. The only down point of the album is that ...
...the rest of the songs are good, I felt it meandered on with "Oh Yes", "Get It Back" and "Until You Come Back". "I Bow Out" and "You'll Never Stand Alone" are Houston of old, and while they are good tracks, they never match the first half of the album. The final track "I Was Made To Love Him" his actually a Stevie Wonder cover with a gender change! There is less warbling on this album, and that is to Houston's credit. Her best album to date. ...

Advantages: a funkier Whitney than the goody-two shoes of old
Disadvantages: tries too hard to be cool; weak voice!

...a treat. Still, I belive my views on this album need airing-not because it is a bad collection of songs, but because, as far as a Whitney Houston offering is concerned, it doesn't send chills down the spine the way some of her older songs still do. It's clear to hear that Whintey's voice is weakened-this may be because of age, or due to the controversial, well-documented lifestyle choices and substance abuse she has dallied with in recent years. ...
...nothing useful to say, 'In my Business', which is simply an ego trip for a Houston wanting to lash out at the media for intrusion into her private life. 'Get it Back' is quite listenable, but, like the opening track of the album, is very much a song that could be on a Kelly Price, Faith Evans, TLC, Monica or Brandy album as easily as it could be on a Whitney Houston album. 'If I told you That' is a much more satisfying effort which showcases Whitney's ... Read review

Advantages: Very easy-listening, good tracks in general
Disadvantages: Some mediocre tracks, some beats a bit too strong

...in the UK. 3. My Love is Your Love: An up-beat ballad, this love song makes a whole new genre of love songs which others can only follow. Strings and drums are combined with vocals for a great result. Also released as a single in 1999. 4. When You Believe: This duet with Mariah Carey was released nearly 2 years ago for the release of the 'Prince of Egypt' film. A very pleasant ballad. 5. If I Told You That: Released late this year, this song is ...
...really well. 6. In My Business: More TLC style, this up-beat R&B track features Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott who makes this song very cool and hip. The constant scratching of records in the background does get annoying though. 7. I Learned From The Best: Another Top 10 UK release for Whitney, this song is an amazing example of how good quality easy listening ballads can still be popular in today's music world. 8. Oh Yes: A perhaps too-long ballad ... Read review

Advantages: Great voice
Disadvantages: A few fillers that don't deserve to be on

...mediocre to true brilliance. My absolute favourite is 'I Learned From The Best' but other hit singles include 'It's not right but it's OK', 'My love is your love' and 'Heartbreak Hotel'. Some of the tracks in-between are not up to this standard but are still pretty good to listen to. The variety of types of track on the album is impressive but I think it is let down in places by some of the tracks which are less thna memorable, e.g. 'Get it Back'. ... Read review

Advantages: Great Voice+Great Songs=Fantastic Album
Disadvantages: None

...So, Whitney Houston made a come back with her first album not supported by a film for EIGHT YEARS! The album ‘My Love Is Your Love’ was a great success, and you can hear why. The album is completely full to the brim with great songs. You mix one of the worlds most talented singers with some of the most talented and sought after producer’s songwriters and singers in the music industry and what do you get? You get a great album that’s what! I really love this album. Most albums have one or more tracks that don't live up to the standard of the rest of the album, but this one is an exception. All the tracks are brilliant! Whitney has a great voice. It really is a great R&B album. Track-by-track review: Track One: ‘It’s Not Right But It’s Okay’ This is an infectious track, it...

Advantages: Whitney's voice
Disadvantages: It ends!!

...To me a diva is a term, which can only be used, in unusual cases. A woman, who portrays a positive attitude, magnificent stage presence, voice and most importantly has stood the stand of time, who has returned as a “new” artist but still not forgotten her established fans. For me that woman is Ms Whitney Houston. In 1996 she slammed back on the scene with a hip hip/dance song called “Its not right but its okay” She transformed her poppy image to fit in with the new urban scene and she did it successfully with the release of her first studio album for eight years with “My Love Is Your Love” 1) It’s Not Right But Its Okay Whitney’s first track that was released and I must say she did make a come back. The video is a true “diva” video filled with a strong attitude... Read review
