I finished the Whitney Hot 100 video... <3 That was awesome! Hearing her hits back to back reminded me of how much I love her singles discography. Ah, she was perfect! One of a kind.

That was the same night she was throwing shade with Janet!! I've always wondered who that creepy lady is in between them photo bombing the pic.

Here's some extremely rare footage of Whitney singing back-up on this song, it's from 1995. You can clearly hear her singing during the chorus, she sounds beautiful!

^ OOH, thank you for "It's Alright!" Wow. I had no idea.
Anyway, I've been stanning for a Live album w/DVD of course for Whitney - she had so many powerful and beautiful live performances during her career. It would be a shame not to have some of these collected works as part of her legacy.

Nice tracklisting. It was long overdue. Although I do think they could have did a 2 disc package. She had many more great live performances than just these listed.

So glad they included the AMA's. Not to nit pick but I would have preferred the Vh1 Divas performance of IWALY or even the World Music Awards.

Great news! Release date is exactly 2 years after I Will Always Love You: The Best of Whitney Houston, they were smart to skip last year's holiday season. Surely it's going to be a great listen. :)

This is cool, though it feels like there is a lot missing. Though this is not an official greatest hits collection, so I get why it is not exhaustive. She did a performance of "Million Dollar Bill" on the British version of X Factor I liked...even if her dress busted open during it :)

Odd to include the MLIYL video on the DVD, but agreed that this is a nice, and overdue, release.

I can't believe Million Dollar Bill only peaked at 100. I heard that song everywhere and a bunch of young people knew it too!
I love One of Those Days!!!

If they are going to include a live performance of I Didn't Know My Own Strength, I personally would have much preferred the AMA one - especially as the closing performance of the DVD.
From the white dress, the orchestra, the choir and the lighting - everything about that performance was heavenly. The ovation she received from the crowd during the song's break was amazing and showed her to be the eternal superstar she is.

Amazing! I can't wait for this album. I'll be buying for sure. And I agree about that AMA Medley being something els.e there's one part of "And I'm Telling You.." where it doesn't even sound like a human, it's so well done.

Finally! I've been wishing for this type of collection ever since she passed. People will be quickly reminded just how amazing she was live. My only two quibbles - "Why Does it Hurt so bad (MTV as mentioned)" amazing performance and I would've like a separate performance of IHN, but the AMA medley is good.
