Product Description
Amazon.ca
By this time in her career, Whitney Houston had a formula sound, and here she leans on it hard, surrounding herself with adult contemporary heavy-hitters like Diane Warren and Babyface. This wasn't the monster her previous records were, most notably The Bodyguard soundtrack, even though it seems to be an overt attempt at satisfying the same audience. Her voice is as crystalline as ever, but overall it seems a somewhat soulless effort, even though the themes are much more secular than she's braved before. --Scott Wilson

Format:Audio CD
I loved this album! Whitney's mix of gospel and inspirational songs are fabulous here! I love her joyful Joy to The World and I go To the Rock. And Step By Step sounds very good here. This album goes back to her roots strongly, long before the big ballads and over the top performances that she's mostly known for. Stirring, moving, emotional and dramatic songs here!

Mutli platinum selling artist Whintey Houston puts her best foot forward on "The Preacher's Wife Soundtrack." Houston grew up singing in the church, and this album truly shows that she learned a lot. Her gospel roots are clearly displayed on this album.
The overall tracklisting is an impressive one. The album contains gospel songs previously released by other artists including a different rendition of "Somebody Bigger Than You and I" and "I Love the Lord". "Somebody Bigger Than You and I" features Houston's husband, Bobby, New Edition members Ralph Tresvant and Johnny Gill and Monica. The album also includes the Babyface produced "You Were Loved" and "My Heart is Calling". This album can be played from beginning to end without any wanting to skip a track.

Format:Audio CD
Although not her most recent, this is one of Whitney's most inspirational, soul filled and spirited projects. This one gives us only a glimpse of what Whitney could do if she really let her gospel roots dominate.
Her vocal delivery borders flawless. She articulately and powerfully belts them out, some with the added inspirational power of a gospel choir backing her up.
This soundtrack will raise your spirits high. In this soundtrack, Whitney shares her heart, soul and spirit with the listener. The inspirational energy and passion she emits on this album have yet to be matched on any of her others.
I hope she soon finds her way back to that spirit filled place.
