It’s been 7 years since the world has heard the wonderful voice of the “princess who married the bad boy”. This week, she told everything in a long exclusive interview to Oprah. As I know that you like her a lot, I summarized these 2 hours of conversation of the words of Whitney Houston.

Oprah Whitney

  • 14 years of emotional abuse.
  • She got addicted to sex and having fun.
  • Everything went wrong after the movie Bodyguard.
  • She turned down her own light to please her husband Bobby Brown.
  • She lost herself trying to make her jealous husband happy.
  • He did not want anyone to know about his jealousy.
  • Marijuana and cocaine were used daily, after the movie Bodyguard.
  • He drank and got much worse which changed his personality.
  • They used drugs for 2 years, every day.
  • The worst thing he did that she could tell was: “he spit in my face!”
  • She did a reality show just to please her husband.
  • There were weeks that went by only watching TV and they never talked.
  • She did not leave home so that no one would know what was going on.
  • He painted ‘evil eyes’ on the walls, carpet, closets and called it ‘creative’.
  • On a picture of her with her daughter, her husband cut out the head of his wife.
  • Her ‘heroic’ mother made a surprise appearance with 2 sheriffs to end the despair of her daughter.
  • She ran away from home with only a change of clothes in 2006.
  • She spent one month in rehab together with her daughter.
  • She expected him to change with their separation.
  • Conformism and habit caused her to hang onto him.
  • Her daughter suggested divorce after seeing the infidelity and aggression of her father.
  • She still has the desire for drugs. She takes it one day at a time.
  • She always called God her strength and always read the Bible.
  • She knew that the Holy Spirit would guide her out of that situation.
  • In her new album she sings what he feels NOW.
  • The song below is the essence of this experience.

“I Look to You”

The lyrics of the song are below.

whitney_houston_i_look_to_you

As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
Im lost without a cause
After giving it my all

Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I’ve been through
Who on earth can I turn to

I look to you
I look to you

After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong

I look to you
I look to you

Yeah

And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song

I look to you

After losing my breath
There’s no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door

And every road that I’ve taken
Lead to my regret
And I don’t know if Im gonna make it
Nothing to do but lift my head

I look to you
I look to you

Yeah

And when all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong

I look to you
I look to you

Oh yeah

And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song

I look to you

(my levies have broken, my walls have come)

Coming down on me

(crumbling down on me)

All the rain is falling

(the rain is falling, defeat is calling)

Set me free

(i need you to set me free)

Take me far away from the battle
I need you
Shine on me

I look to you
I look to you

After all my strength has gone
in you I can be strong

I look to you
I look to you

and when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song

I look to you

yeah

I look to you
oooooooh
I look to you
