No matter what the budget is, Will Young always manages to make a good video. We didn’t think this would be a single as we are still waiting for “Runaway” to be released and we are growing to love “Happy Now.” Oh, and also “Good Things.” Okay, we love the whole album. Still, Echoes is as fresh as the day it was released. Get it!

“I decided long ago never to walk in anyone’s shadow

if I fail, if I succeed at least I did as I believe.”

- Whitney Houston

Mediocre really. We are surprised she didn’t do a little Whitney tribute thrown in there. Had it not been for Whitney none of these female vocalists would be here.

As you might have noticed if you follow us on Twitter and/or Facebook, we are totally devastated from the death of the legendary Whitney Houston. Not only because she made a great contribution to the world of music, but also because we are music aficionados and we care a lot about this kind of music as we believe it has, not only an artistic impact but also a cultural one all over the world. Whitney is one of the greatest forces of that change and the progress of pop – a genre we love. At any rate, we know that you are about done right now with hearing “I Will Always Love You” blasted all over the media – A cover song that is originally Dolly Parton’s. For Micheal Jackson it was “Billie Jean” and for Amy Winehouse it was “Rehab.” And, as you might expect from Loft965.com, we are not ones to stop at the big hits only. So, we decided to compile a playlist for all the songs and remixes in Whitney Houston’s career that might go forgotten right now just like we did for Michael Jackson. Here it is. We hope you enjoy it.

Adele has already four of the categories she has been nominated for in the Grammy Awards Show tonight. The singer was nominated in six categories and she is looking like she will win most! The new album 21 is definitely going to get a huge surge in sales after this.

Even in midtempo, the legendary Whitney Houston cracked the code. Lovely song. ”My Love Is Your Love” is a 1999 song by American R&B singer Whitney Houston. Released as the fourth single off Houston’s album of the same name, it peaked at #4 in the U.S., #2 on the U.S. R&B chart, and #2 in the U.K. It was later certified platinum by the RIAA.

Along with the original mid-tempo reggae-influenced version that was produced by Wyclef Jean, a dance remixed version by Jonathan Peters was also released. The single was extremely successful worldwide, hitting the Top Ten in nearly two dozen international markets. At over three million units sold globally, it stands as Houston’s third most successful single, after “I Will Always Love You” and “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)“.

Whitney Houston’s daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown has reportedly been rushed to the hospital for unspecified causes. Bobby Brown also has been carried out on a stretcher. News is coming in as we type.

This is the definition of diva. Learn, children!

“My mother taught me that when you stand in the truth and someone tells a lie about you, don’t fight it.”

-Whitney Houston

This is one of the singles of Whitney’s career that sometimes goes unnoticed because it was not on her album. Also, because it was only released in the UK. ”Something in Common” is a song by singers Bobby Brown and then-wife Whitney Houston that was featured on Brown’s 1992 album Bobby. Despite the album’s release in mid-1992, this was recorded in September 1991 in Atlanta, Georgia, immediately after Brown and Houston became engaged. The single version was recorded in 1993 and also available on Brown’s 1993 compilation album, Remixes in the Key of B. It stands as the couple’s first musical collaboration and the only one released as a single. The song examines two unlikely people coming together as they find “something in common.”

Kim Kardashian is probably super happy that Whitney’s news is covering up her new nose.

Since we heard the tragic news that one of the greatest pop artists has passed away we have been scouring the internet for any clues as to what the cause of death was. She seemed like she was on a healthier track and 48 is way too young for someone to die. First there was those pictures of her sweaty night out where Whitney Houston looked liked she had blood on her leg, we dismissed it as red wine in the beginning and then took a closer at the night. It’s not like she was on a downward spiral like everyone talks about it. In fact, Whitney was doing much better than she was this entire decade, at least to our distanced knowledge.

At any rate, Amy Winehouse’s death sparked a general consensus that it was due to illegal drug abuse only for it to come out as a result of excessive alcohol consumption. Now, she looked like she had a couple of drinks before and maybe she couldn’t live with the shame of her pictures being splattered all over the world the next day with her being completely discombobulated  after she championed the role of a recovered addict to Oprah while promoting her last album I Look To You. What am I insinuating? Well, could it be possible that the death was a suicide. You know, she was in a bathtub. This is standard procedure for people who slit their wrists because the warm water keeps the vessels dilated for the blood to come out faster.

I am on speculating from afar. But, until its ruled out its not too far-fetched. Granted, it might be a drug relapse or an overdose on prescription drugs. Actually, it may very well be. But, something tells me that these photos of her hard partying did not sit well with the diva who finally polished her image after years and years of trying.

Correct me if I am wrong. This is just some blabber from a loving fan.
