Strong Feelings About Whitney Houston

[Spectrum]

The poll is not specific enough.

I am indifferent towards her music. Not my taste in genre.

I disapproved of her lifestyle choices and felt bad how it turned out, but always hoped she'd get it together and pull through.

I was a big fan of her abilities as a vocalist. One of the greatest set of pipes I've ever heard.

If there is no carrots, I vote rutabaga.

 

[WalterBush]

I am so indifferent that I had completely forgotten about Whitney Houston's existence until I saw this no-carrots-option-havin' poll, even though not two nights ago I watched an episode of The Boondocks that mentioned her. Is that emphatic indifference? I don't know, something else just happened and I forgot what I was typing about.

 

[MVE]

She had a nice voice.

 

[Killed_by_Death]

I just remembered that her daughter is dead now, so so sad:

The Tragically Similar Lives of Bobbi Kristina Brown & Whitney Houston

 

[jwilson67]

I always thought she was overrated. Good, but overrated.

 

[Watchootognbout]

Whitney Houston.
Meh.....
I've never liked the kind of female voice that's like a trumpet.
Like a loud brass horn.

Now singers like Loreena McKennitt,Máire Ní Bhraonáin with Clannad,Connie Dover,and other Irish female sopranos just literally send shivers down my spine!


Check out the fretless bass in this one!

I know a lot of people think she has a great voice , but she didn’t light me up like Dionne Warwick, Aretha or Dusty Springfield or any of those women (there is a list) with that unique character in their vocals.

Choose the answer that MOST represents your feelings about Whitney Houston. Notice all three responses are very STRONG statements. One of them is more accurate than the others about your feelings. There can be no Carrots option. The poll has a very specific purpose, which I may divulge once many votes have come in.

Loved her voice, liked some of her music, thought she wasted her life, sad.

 

[Tony In Philly]

She actually sang sharp, and I think it was deliberate. It kind of drove my ears crazy.

 

[bobba66]

I like cocaine, too.

 

[Kmonk]

Never liked her music and I have no use or sympathy for drug addicts.
(Before anybody attacks me and says I would feel differently if someone close to me died from drugs, my half brother and a friend died from a drug overdose. It didn't change my opinion)

 

[growlypants]

I couldn't find my feelings about her in the survey, so I couldn't answer honestly. She was a monstrous talent. Absolutely the best version of the Star Spangled Banner I have ever heard. Period. But I never bought any of her albums, so there you go.

 

[Deleted member 165050]

Can't do the poll as I cant identify with any of the answers. I didn't despise her, didn't love her, but not indifferent either. I thought she had a great voice, respected her as an artist, and really felt for her tragic end and then that of her daughter. Not even a carrot would do for me, I'll have to take option X.

Whitney redefined how an anthem should be done. love that, hate her

 

[Tom Bomb]

Love.

 

[JimK]

Nathan East was all over her debut album...

 

[Two-Spirit]

She had chops, a great decoration singer. I love the song when you believe.

 

[Son of Wobble]

I refuse to be reduced to a mere data point in some nefarious internet scheme of @mellowinman

You know she didn't sing that live right? It was pre-recorded.
