100 Greatest Singers of All Time

34. Whitney Houston
Born August 9th, 1963 Key Tracks "The Greatest Love of All," "I Wanna Dance
With Somebody," "Saving All My Love for You," "I Will Always Love You"
Influenced Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Faith Evans, Mary J. Blige The daughter of
R&B and gospel singer Cissy Houston, Whitney grew up around family friends
Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight; Dionne Warwick was a cousin. "When I
started singing," she once said, "it was almost like speaking." By the time
she was 22, Whitney had emerged as the greatest female voice of her
generation: Her 1985 debut alone included the monster hits "Saving All My
Love for You," "How Will I Know" and "The Greatest Love of All." Her voice is
a mammoth, coruscating cry: Few vocalists could get away with opening a song
with 45 unaccompanied seconds of singing, but Houston's powerhouse version of
Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" is a tour de force.
