    I applaud your choice. You should know Whitney recorded this song in … ONE take.
    She recorded it live to an empty house on the stage of the Fountain Blu Hotel Miami Beach while filming “The BodyGuard.” She did that take, it was considered by her estimation to be complete. Ms. Houston agreed to do a 2nd take in the event something happened to that recording. The 1st take was released.
    Whitney Houston’s nickname amongst music professionals was “One Take Houston.”
    There was virtually no one recording that entered a studio like Whitney, knowing how she would sing or style any song from beginning to end. She was a musical prodigy.

    Literally remains the Gold Bar to which so many aspiring singers hope to aspire even all these decades later. For that reason alone it is horrible to believe that the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame has yet to include her as an honoree. Her place amongst “legends” of women in music is always within the top 5.
