Did you know that Whitney Houston's debut LP, called simply Whitney Houston had 4 number one singles on it? Did you know that, Christie? It's hard to choose a favorite among so many great tracks, but "The Greatest Love of All" is one of the best, most powerful songs ever written about self-preservation, dignity. Its universal message crosses all boundaries and instills one with the hope that it's not too late to better ourselves. Since, Elizabeth, it's impossible in this world we live in to empathize with others, we can always empathize with ourselves. It's an important message, crucial really. And it's beautifully stated on the album.

The stellar debut from a young Whitney feels better than her other records, and I think it's because of the length and track order. It picks up in the second half with a much needed push, and doesn't fall ill to the same problem as the album after. The slower songs still remain interesting and the duets really help keep you invested. "How will I know" is an obvious stand out and for good reason. It's instantly enjoyable, but what's even better is that it was not the first song on the record. They save their super weapon of a song, so that it hits better in the context of the full album.
