Yeah, like others have said “Higher Love” worked because it was “new” to the general public and the revision worked so well. This is just a pale “update” on a well-known and much beloved classic.
So... Stanley Tucci is going to play Clive Davis in the Whitney biopic. I love Tucci so that is a bonus but I still can't help thinking this biopic is going to be a mess...
The tracklist, at last ! I Will Always Love You: The Best Of Whitney Houston on vinyl Side A 1. You Give Good Love 2. Saving All My Love For You 3. How Will I Know 4. Greatest Love Of All 5. I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me) Side B 6. Didn’t We Almost Have It All 7. So Emotional 8. Where Do Broken Hearts Go 9. I’m Your Baby Tonight Side C 10. All The Man That I Need 11. I Will Always Love You 12. I’m Every Woman 13. I Have Nothing 14. Exhale (Shoop Shoop)(from Waiting To Exhale – Original Soundtrack) Side D 15. I Believe In You And Me (Record Version) 16. My Love Is Your Love (Radio Edit) 17. I Look To You 18. Never Give Up 19. Higher Love (Kygo & Whitney Houston) Out: Oct 27 They just added the Kygo remix to the 1CD edition of this collection and I think this makes it the only physical item that includes the track. Left off the tracks on the 2nd cd, like One Moment In Time, Run To You, Queen Of The Night, It's Not Right But It's Okay, My name is not Susan, I Learned From the Best & Heartbreak Hotel. https://boutique.whitneyhouston.com...-love-you-the-best-of-whitney-houston?cp=null
A little surprise for One Wish vinyl release, too Side A 1. The First Noël 2. The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire) 3. Little Drummer Boy (Feat. Bobbi Kristina Brown) 4. One Wish (For Christmas) 5. Cantique de Noël (O Holy Night) 6. I’ll Be Home For Christmas Side B 1. Deck The Halls / Silent Night 2. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas 3. O Come O Come Emmanuel 4. Who Would Imagine A King 5. Joy To The World 6. Do You Hear What I Hear? (with Pentatonix) Out: Oct 15. As you all know, Do You Hear What I Hear? (with Pentatonix) is a "new" track. So, we have the How Will I Know Clean Bandit remix now, and I presume Do You Hear What I Hear? (with Pentatonix) is going to be a single before Xmas ? https://boutique.whitneyhouston.com/product/X3LPWH002/one-wish-the-holiday-album?cp=109024_109172 If a remix collection is gonna happen, Higher Love (Kygo & Whitney Houston) Whitney Houston & Clean Bandit - How Will I Know Do You Hear What I Hear? (with Pentatonix) are gonna be included...
Wasn't Do You Hear What I Hear? with Pentatonix already released on one of their (many) Christmas albums a few years ago?
You're right, @torontodj ! Never heard of Pentatonix, but they quite have a long Xmas discography, I see.. they even have a Best of Xmas collection, that includes the Whitney track ! Let's say it's first time it appears on a Whitney release The Best of Pentatonix Christmas (2019 release) Deck The Halls 2:46 Carol of the Bells 3:16 God Only Knows Hallelujah 4:29 Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy 2:07 Mary, Did You Know? 3:23 Joyful, Joyful 3:54 Do You Hear What I Hear? 3:34 Little Drummer Boy 4:13 God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen 2:30 Winter Wonderland/Don’t Worry Be Happy 3:28 White Winter Hymnal 2:48 Grown-Up Christmas List 4:42 You’re a Mean One, Mr Grinch 3:00 When You Believe 3:53 Here Comes Santa Claus 2:37 How Great Thou Art 4:10 That’s Christmas To Me 3:04 Coldest Winter (Bobby Alt Drum Mix) 2:28
Surprised they have chosen to re issue I Will Always Love You, when it's by far a lower seller when compared to Whitney: The Greatest Hits or The Ultimate Collection. Nice to have Higher Love on CD I suppose though.
I'm surprised they didn't release another Whitney collection in light of Higher Love's success. They really should have capitalized on that moment.
I thought in your post it said a 1 CD edition too? .. And can see a CD edition here too that looks like a 1 Disc: https://boutique.whitneyhouston.com...ve-you-the-best-of-whitney-houston-cd?cp=null
I wrote that this vinyl release is the 1CD release + HL remix. There are not the tracks on the bonus disc. This page looks a lot like an old page: no release date, no tracklist, a different description. If you add that Amazon doesn't list a cd reissue, I don't think it's happening. And it looks too cheap for a new relase, just 7,98$!
Surely the I Look To You will be the Whitney solo version too if they have any sense. I actually have a very nicely done bootleg CD single of Higher Love! https://www.discogs.com/Kygo-X-Whit...e/release/17064543/image/SW1hZ2U6NTMyMzc5MTY=
According to the Discogs page (don't know how it's already there since early Sept), it's the duet version of I Look To You. Quite a statement from the estate ! I'm speechless https://www.discogs.com/it/Whitney-...-The-Best-Of-Whitney-Houston/release/20180431
Probable then that someone's added it to Discogs without actually having it yet and just copied the tracklisting from the earlier releases.
