Negative Positive
Title: A much anticipated failure.
Review: I was extremely excited when I realized Whitney Houston was releasing her first Christmas album. I have studied voice for years and have always considered Whitney to have exception range and depth in her music. However, the album One Wish did not represent that same old Whitney Houston. Her songs are breathy and airy. She doesn't seem to be able to maintain proper breathing technique. And I found it quite amusing how she adds her own words when she can't remember the real words. I loved Little Drummer Boy with her daughter (I would have bought a whole album of her daughter's) but then Whitney can't even let her daughter sing without adding comments in the background. The only saving grace for this album would be Joy to the World, which was recorded when Whitney filmed the movie The Preacher's Wife. My mother actually gave her album of this cd to me not knowing I too had unfortunatly bought this album. My advice is to stick with Mariah Carey's Merry Christmas album.
Is the review positive or negative?
