So, Whitney. The show is over.
What can we add to the reams of tributes from fellow stars, the deep and thoughtful analysis of her contribution to music and the sad story of her decline?
It is this.
1. We have never had a Love Machine where we didn’t play I Wanna Dance With Somebody, and we never will.
2. Even her last album where she’d fallen apart a bit contained Million Dollar Bill, which was better than most artists’ career output.
3. We should have played So Emotional a lot more. We will rectify this in future.
4. Only a couple of weeks ago we spent around 2 hours listening purely to Whitney power ballads and they are all astonishing.
5. Whit Tuesday should be renamed Whitney Tuesday. Get one of those online petitions going please someone.
Whitney Houston 1963-2012.
