This was just absolutely amazing. I wasn't the target audience as I wasn't alive when Whitney came on the scene, but her music career influenced so many of the artists I grew up with and the music I listened to. There is no doubt in my mind that Whitney Houston is one of the greatest artists of all time. It's been a decade since her death, and seeing how so much has changed, I wonder what she would've become had she survived until now.
