RIP Whitney Houston (1963-2012) – Another Legend Dies Tragically
Sunday, February 12, 2012Posted in: Whitney Houston
I’m sat here with tears running down my face. I’m actually grieving as if I’ve just lost a loved one. And in a way, I guess I have.
I’d fallen asleep last night, and TTG had to wake me up to tell me the news that Whitney had died. I didn’t believe him at first, after all, Whitney Houston is a legend, and legends like her don’t die. Then I remembered. Yes, they do.
As with Michael Jackson, Whitney’s music has always had the power to take me back to a specific time and place.
Saving All My Love For You reminds me of being in school and having a massive crush on a boy. It was played at our school disco and I remember feeling heartbroken because The Object of My Affection danced with somebody else to that song.
