"Have Yourself a Merry Little..." Whitney Houston can SING! - AllGold - 12-05-2007
Let me just say, wow, it's a shame she doesn't do more singing.
I'm listening to Accuradio.com's adult contemporary Christmas channel. Not bad.

Are you serious?
"Whitney Houston can SING!"
Understatement of the year. Fortunately a new year is around the corner for someone else to take the title.

I have never cared for Whitney Houston's singing. She really popularized the super-exaggerated style of belting out a tune way past any musicality. Watching & hearing her sing "I'll Always Love You" makes me flinch.
From the Urban Dictionary:
"vocal gymnastics
A style of singing in current popular music, specifically R&B, where the singer incorporates a lot of "runs" and extra notes to showcase their vocal abilities, resulting in the singer looking like he/she is trying too hard to sound super-talented. Often accompanied by dramatic hand movements in synch with the notes being sung."
See also: Christina Aguilera, Pink, Mya. There was another word for this that I can't recall now. Anyone?

To quote the late, great Sylvester: "Your ear... has to be in your "foot," to not know these women can sing, ya'll."
