    No matter what they take from me, they can't take away my dignity.

    Looks like Whitney was wrong on this one.

    Admit it, your heart just isn't in this one.

    I disagree.

    Very sad to hear it.

    somewhere in the back of mind i always thought i would meet Whitney Houston some day, maybe on the next level

    Sad but not entirely surprising


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,299 ✭✭✭✭later12


    First Michael Jackson and now this:(

    When Michael died I swore I would never smile again, but eventually I did. Now Whitney has gone I cannot image that I will ever smile for the rest of my life, but I will probably break that one too.

    Good God, who is next, Geri Halliwell?

    What a pointless comment.

    And yet you thought it was worth sharing your absolute void of feelings with everyone else.

    Why do you think anyone else gives a fúck about the fact that you don't give a fúck?

    Y'see, that's a good joke and was worth reading.

    RIP.


    This brings back bad memories for me....

    ... hearing that fucking 'I will always love youuuuuuuuuuuu' song all over the place again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 702 ✭✭✭Turpentine


    I never realised "I Will Always Love You" was such a long song, Sky News have been playing it for 10 minutes. Repetative video though.

    This is why we can't have nice things.

    But if, for whatever reason, your first instinct on hearing this news is to do so, you should at least try and ensure that it's a good joke/is worth reading.

    Did you know that her debut LP, titled simply 'Whitney Houston' had four number one singles on it? 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

    RIP

    Was she one of your relatives?

    I think the "She brought it on herself" comments are more ****ed up than a few cheesy puns. It hasn't even been confirmed her death was drug-related. Even Amy Winehouse didn't have drugs in her system when she died.

    Alcohol isn't a drug then ?

    Picture shows she was in a bad state.

    Jaysus comment on the Sun story from 3 hours ago: "if she did one day of hard work.she would soon realise just how good she has got it,anyway carry on she will be joining whinehouse"

    I was about to say that it sounded like something from American Psycho but thought it might be inappropriate. But no, it actually is a quote from American Psycho. :D

    Wow, one of the earliest songs I can remember was the song she did for the 1988 Olympics. It was awful about the course her life took in her last few years.

    Yeah. i had just noticed that.. Surprised i never heard the rumour before..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,536 ✭✭✭AngryBollix


    Why do people say she wasted her talent?

    She didnt and achieved a hell of a lot. It would probably be fair that she could have achieved a great deal more but she certainly didnt completely waste her talent

    You're right.. I shouldn't have said anything. Perhaps I'm just feeling so empty reading statistics of drug related deaths of homeless people in Dublin. Perhaps I should devote more time to caring about famous people who had a better chance than most to prevent or recover from a drug habit. I need to fill this void somehow. Maybe even get 50 posts in to reach "the soccer forum".

    Never liked her music, far too slushy and middle of the road for me but she did have a great voice and talent. Lovely looking girl too.

    Pity how her life turned out...48 is far too young to go....RIP.

    That last picture showing "scratches on her wrist" actually looks like she had cut her wrist with a knife a week or two ago. That appears to be her left hand and she is right handed judging by the multiple photos showing her holding a microphone. Possible suicide?

    i was shocked cos i never heard anything about her for years, except that she was allegedly stopped at an arport with grass , but thats 10 years ago,

    you can imagine the burden on her mind though, she was a sensitive person, by all accounts
