Editorial Review:
Rumors of a greatest-hits package had been flying, but as millions of converts held their breath, Whitney Houston headed into the studio only to emerge--amid a flurry of drama screaming "diva" (a live Web broadcast of the international press conference revealing the album, and a veil of secrecy shrouding the new material)--with her first nonsoundtrack album in eight years. So is it worth all the hype and hoopla? Probably. There are no real surprises (typical ballads such as "You'll Never Stand Alone," obligatory writer-producer-singer cameos from Babyface, Wyclef Jean, Missy Elliott, Faith Evans, and Kelly Price--this time in a worthy attempt to slot into the late-'90s soul scene), but she does try to defend her marriage on the Elliott-produced "In My Business." Elliott's other effort, the slow-burning "Oh Yes" is a high point, but the hands-down driving force of this record is the multiplatinum, multi-octave power pairing of Houston with Mariah Carey on "When You Believe." --Rebecca Wallwork
My Love Is Your Love Reviews:
The best singer 
2008-01-28 - I have been a big fan of her for over 23 years now. I have been a number 1 fan since I was 6 months old. Now, I am 23 years old and her music still inspires me. This was a great album filled with classic rhythm and blues and today's r&b infused with hip hop.
Her best!
2007-11-26 - I have been listening to Whitney Houston since I was a girl in the 80s, and I am very familiar with her career. Out of all the albums I have owned, this is her best work! Many of the song versions on this album are impossible to find from other sources (such as the Walmart mp3 store and itunes). So if you want her best, buy this one!
A pretty solid experience from Whitney. 
2007-06-25 - It's no classic but it's good enough.
My favorites are:
It's Not Right But It's Okay
I Was Made To Love Him
If I Told You That
and Until You Come Back.
I like the beat to Oh Yes and have grown to like the song. Until You Come Back, written by Babyface himself is also notable. I Was Made To Love Him is good too. It's a very bouncy track. I don't care too much for You'll Never Stand Alone though.
3.8 stars. Good CD but I'm sure that one of her earlier releases is better. But if you enjoy R&B, then I fully recommend this CD.
Enjoyable, But Not The Whitney We Once Knew!!! 
2006-07-18 - I remember buying this cd back in 1998 and as soon as I finished listening to the whole album, I had to admit that I wasn't entirely pleased with this production. I was trying to figure out whether it was the new type of music or the way it was recorded or even worst, her voice. I realized that it was everything that I just mentioned. Although I loved Whitney since the very beginning and always will, this cd seemed to be the beginning of the worst for her. Whitney's voice on this cd sounds very strained and tired as if she had been singing non stop for days. There used to be such a milky, smooth sound to her voice and the way she could tell a story in a song just by the emotion in her sound but this album lacks much of that. The cd seemed very rushed too, from the sound to even the inside jacket, which is disappointing coming from such a high roller such as Whitney. She does try to put that same feeling into her songs like before but it only comes off as being very scratchy and even hoarsed at times. She certainly doesn't hit the high octaves like she used to and instead seems to be holding back from doing so, probably since her vocal cords couldn't handle it. I remember seeing her concert in Atlantic City just before this cd came out and she was terribly hoarsed and blamed it on doing many non-stop weeks of recording for the cd, but we all know that its more than just the recording thats causing the problem which I dont need to mention. The album has it highlights in a few songs like When You Believe, If I Told You That and You'll Never Stand Alone. Other songs like I Learned From The Best and especially I Bow Out, you can really tell she's pushing herself to get the notes out. I know she still has the potential for example when she sings Could I Have This Kiss Forever, it kinda took me back a little to the old Whitney. I really hope with her next album coming out soon in 2006 or 07, she really has it together and give us back that magic she once had in her voice.
Great Album!
2006-07-09 - Whitney Houston does it again!!! This album is amazing and this album is way diffirent then her past albums. Not really any slow love songs but it's ok! This album oddly peaked at #13 on the charts but was certified 4x platinum in the US alone and sold over 13 million worldwide.
Heartbreak Hotel #2
It's Not Right But It's Ok #4
My Love Is Your Love #4
I Learned From The Best #28
My favorite track on the album is no other than Heartbreak Hotel. The song is just a great track and I remember when it was outplayed on the radio. Now I wish Whitney would come up with something like this. Make sure you pick up a copy of this album!
