There was also this UK release with 18 of her top hits, Whitney Houston: Ultimate Collection
:


The good thing about the UK release is that it has less remixes and is more true to the original recordings, which is probably what you are really looking for right now. However, this disc does not have her classic rendition of The Star Spangled Banner, the US national anthem, which she so memorably performed at Super Bowl XXV in 1991. So if you are looking to add that track to the collection you would be better off with Whitney: The Greatest Hits
.
The UK collection contains the following classic Whitney Houston tracks:
1) I Will Always Love You
2) Saving All My Love For You
3) Greatest Love Of All
4) I Wanna Dance With Somebody
5) One Moment In Time
6) How Will I Know
7) So Emotional
When You Believe
9) Where Do Broken Hearts Go
10) I’m Your Baby Tonight
11) Didn’t We Almost Have It All
12) Run To You
13) Exhale (Shoop Shoop)
14) If I Told You That
15) I Have Nothing
16) I’m Every Woman
17) Its Not Right, But Its Okay
18) My Love Is Your Love
You might want to go beyond the radio play songs and pick up her full albums. One of the best was the soundtrack to her starring film vehicle, The Bodyguard: Original Soundtrack Album
. The album produced no fewer than 6 radio hits, plus other classics that never got radio play such as Yes, Jesus Love Me.
I still love this movie and can watch it whenever it comes on. It takes me back to a special era in our music history, when stars were larger than life, and we had real crossover megastars who released whole, conceptual albums–something hard to do in today’s music world, which has become so segmented and is heavily focused on downloadable singles. So, pick up a classic piece of musical art, in this Whitney Houston album. Your ears will be pleased.
