RIP Whitney Houston
Feb. 12th, 2012 01:07 amI was out so sad to hear the news of Whitney Houston's death. Her first album was the first album I ever bought with my own money. It was Christmas gift money, but still. I played it non-stop, and I thought that she was the greatest singer ever. I was 7, so I could be forgiven my hero worship, but even as an adult I found her voice incredible. It's so sad that talented people with the full backing of their families and friends can be dragged down by addiction and personal demons. I wish she'd been able to overcome and stage the comeback that seemed to be in the offing. I hope she's found peace.
