Joeleen: I Have Nothing

Joeleen pay’s yet another Tribute to one of her favorite Singers. The One and Only Miss “Whitney Houston” covering one of her Classic Songs “I HAVE NOTHING”.

Joeleen hopes you enjoy her tribute to one of the best Singers that ever lived and would like to Thank Whitney for inspiring her and for giving us all so much while she was on this Earth.

Whitney Elizabeth Houston (August 9, 1963 – February 11, 2012) was an American singer, actress, producer, and model. In 2009, Guinness World Records cited her as the most awarded female act of all time.Houston is one of the best-selling music artists of all-time, with 200 million records sold worldwide.

She released seven studio albums and two soundtrack albums, all of which have diamond, multi-platinum, platinum, or gold certification. Houston’s crossover appeal on the popular music charts–as well as her prominence on MTV, starting with her video for “How Will I Know” influenced several African-American women artists who followed in her footsteps.

Houston is the only artist to chart seven consecutive No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 songs. She is the second artist behind Elton John and the only woman to have two number-one Billboard 200 Album awards (formerly “Top Pop Albums”) on the Billboard magazine year-end charts. Houston’s self-titled debut album (1985) became the best-selling debut album by a woman in history.  Rolling Stone named it the best album of 1986, and ranked it at number 254 on the magazine’s list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.

Her second studio album, Whitney (1987), became the first album by a woman to debut at number one on the Billboard 200 albums chart.

Houston made her screen acting debut as Rachel Marron in the romantic thriller film The Bodyguard (1992). She performed the lead single from the film’s original soundtrack, “I Will Always Love You“, which received the Grammy Award for Record of the Year and became the best-selling single by a woman in music history. With the soundtrack, which received the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1994, Houston became the first act (solo or group, male or female) to sell more than a million copies of an album within a single week period under Nielsen SoundScan system.  The album makes her the top female act in the top 10 list of the best-selling albums of all time, at number four. Houston made other high-profile film appearances and contributed to their soundtracks, including Waiting to Exhale (1995) and The Preacher’s Wife (1996). The soundtrack became the best-selling gospel album in history.
