That's my choice as well. I have it on the 1988 Summer Olympics Album.

What a tremendous loss. I am heartbroken. All of her songs would be most other artists' greatest song.

Oh my gosh--I'd forgotten all about that one--One Moment in time. That was also one of my favorites and I ave the same emotion when I hear it or see the video of the games with the song.

Moi, EricH and tarecos:

Not only do I think that "One Moment in Time" is Whitney Houston's best song, I think it is one of the greatest songs of all time. Pure Inspiration!

Yes, "One Moment in Time" is such a special song that all of us can identify with, bringing back memories of a special moment or moments in our lives.

So sorry. Another great gone. One more voice in the best choir in heaven. RIP Whitney.

I'm particularly fond of "One of those Days" and "Your Love is My Love." Of her traditional favorites, who can deny "I Will Always Love You."

She's the greatest of all time. No one EVER sang the Star Spangled Banner better than Whitney! No one ever will. The Greatest Love of All also gives me chills (both on the iPod). Your legacy will live on in perpetuity--- NO ONE will EVER best you on the national anthem!

This is a truly tragic and devastating loss! RIP Whitney!

I always thought that she did "Cocaine" best.

The third stanza of I Will Always Love You is probably the purest high vocal rendition outside of opera ever sung. Like a candle in the wind......burns so bright but sadly for only a short time.

A sad day :.......

Very sad news - i grew up with whitney's music and can remember seeing her first music video and hearing first songs on the radio. it's like losing a family member. i'm sad that her personal life was so hard for her.

one of my favorite songs is on the album from the preacher's wife, called 'you were loved':

"We all want to make a place in this world
We all want our voices to be heard
Everyone wants a chance to be someone
We all have dreams we need to dream
Sweeter than any star you can reach
Is when you reach and find you found someone
You'll hold this world's most priceless thing
The greatest gift this life can bring
Is when you look back and know
You were loved...

Probably my all time favorite is a gospel song Whitney sang on the same album called 'i love the lord'

She was a star and inspiration to so many - she will be missed...

See, I was born on January 27th 1991. The Super Bowl. Just a few hours after Whitney Houston sang the ONLY national anthem to ever make me tear up. I must admit, the first time I watched it was just a few days after my 21st B-day this year, but it was powerful. The first Gulf War had just started when she sang it, and I could tell everybody was feeling it.

For the simple reason that I was born on this day, I think that was Whitney's best song. R.I.P.

Sidenote: I think it would've been freaking EPIC if I were born during the anthem, right when she goes "brrr-aaaa AAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA VE!!!!". Right between the "AAAAAA" and the "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA".

One Moment in Time was the one I was going to say too. That Grammy performance was amazing and got a standing ovation. What a talent.

I DARE anyone to sing "I'm Your Baby Tonight"..... The vocal riffs in that song, with the power she sings them with, are almost UNMATCHED in the past/present 30 or so years. Mariah Carey has the same range (at Whitney's prime) but not as powerful. Clive lost a good one here........

The National Anthem And The Dolly P. cover are great on their own merits, but this song is SOOOOO hard to sing like she does..... Hardly even attempted in Karaoke....Ever....

P.S. Just my experience being in a vocal coaching household as a minor/teenager/young man......

R.I.P. Ms. Houston.....

Trying to choose her "best" song is like finding the best Cheerio in the box. There are sooo many, sung so vibrantly, passionately and (now) quietly. Sad loss for us fans of the music world.

RIP Whitney...my favorite singer ever growing up! Let s remember her for her great talent...not the sad stories....my heart go to her family specially her baby. God Bless You!

I cant believe she's truly gone. All of Whitney's songs were exceedingly great but her greatest to me was "I look to you". Love u always Whitney R.I.P.

There are so many great songs that it is indeed difficult to choose just one favorite. "Where Do Broken Hearts Go" pretty much says it all.

It wasn't the songs, it was her voice.

Wow! Every time I hear the national anthem from Whitney Houston in 91 brings tears to my eyes. Absolutely the best rendition of the anthem by anyone. I said it then(1991) and I'll say it again...you just cant sing it any better than that. RIP Whitney

Without multiple choices on the poll, it's almost a waste of time. My personal favorite, "WE Almost Had It All", came out at a time when it cut particularly deep for me, but Al-2739446 has it exactly right. As great as her songs were, it was that amazing voice that was capable of bringing out emotions you never knew you had. With all deserved respect, I'll remember what she gave us and do my best to forget the part Bobby Brown played in her life and all it entailed.

i will always love you i want to dance the greast love how will i know saving my love andwhen she sang at the ball park

Whitney Houston's talent was stirring, dynamic, clasy, astounding and brilliant.

It is clear that God gave her a once-in-lifetime gift.

It is so tragic, that this beautiful and iconic songbird has left us at 48.

Pray for her soul, her family, friends and fans. ...may God rest your soul, Whitney.

she has so many great,beautiful songs. some of my faves are: I wanna dance with somebody,where do broken hearts go? (I loooove that one),i get so emocional,one moment in time.....the list could go on and on!!! so sad she was a great singer.

fayola;

I think I agree, thanks for bringing it up I hadn't heard it in a while

My 2nd most favorite W. Houston Song... Probably the hardest to sing...

It's amazing to watch, isn't it? She looks like she just stopped by in the middle of a busy day cleaning house or something (based on her apparel), and just effortlessly belted out one of the best renditions of a song well-known for its difficulty to sing. Just a pure talent, and it's a shame her trajectory skewed the way it did. For a short while, she was the absolute cream of the crop.

How awesome it it that she was able to "effortlessly" dominate a song with a such a wide range?

All At Once has always been my favorite too. I still can't believe she is gone. Such a loss. My heart goes out to her mom and daughter and all of those close to her. Go with God Whitney. We will miss you.

It is hard to pick the greatest song, but I do have to agree with what you said, john M.

I to have listened to her songs on this blog, and they reduce me to tears as well,

No matter what she did wrong in life as some will say, She gave us so much.. so very very much. Thank you Whitney and may you rest in peace.

You have left this world a better place with your presence and music and you will be missed.~

ehf-svaz: Whitney would likely still be alive today, and still performing, had Bobby Brown never been introduced to her. Damn shame, because she had one of the most beautiful voices that God ever graced a person with.

Don't start that garbage! Whitney Houston was an adult who made her own choices in life, and she alone is/was responsible for them. How do you know Bobby Brown wasn't introduced to drugs by Whitney? We as the public don't know squat about what transpired behind closed doors.

Bobby was a talented performer in his own right, and his career was also ruined and promptly handed to Usher on a silver platter during the marriage. That was the biggest problem with the media.

According to those who knew her best, Whitney's crafted image as "the ice princess" was so far removed from what she really was. She was what you call a "round-the-way girl". She would drink beer before champaigne. She loved rap music even though she couldn't rap. Whitney could have been a top model right alongside Tyra Banks and the rest but didn't want to parade around on runways because it wasn't her style.

She wasn't who most people think she was, and neither was Bobby. We don't know either of them, so it's best that we not jump to conclusions about who corrupted whom. It smacks of typical, American, anti-black-male sentiment. Bobby is in a lot of pain right now; he broke down during a performance today and couldn't perform his rendition of "Tenderoni". Pray for Bobby and their daughter and leave it at that.

Well, everyone, she's gone now--the same place where we all must go one day. I pray that before her spirit left her vessel, I hope that she sought Jesus. I hope and believe she did. I pray now most for daughter and most of all her beautiful mother, who was with her when she was born and now, who has seen her departure. Like the world say "A child should never have to leave before their parents." May God give her mother and child all the strength that they need to pull through this stragedy! R.I.P. WHITNEY HOUSTON

You will always be loved, always be remembered, and never forgotten! Tell Michael I sid hello!

God gives and God takes away. Naked we came from my mother's womb--naked shall we return unto the Lord! If we believed!

Faith means not wanting to know what is true.

How does You Give Good Love not make the cut? That's my vote!

Well "blackprince206" - Here are the simple facts as far as I am concerned:

Bad Boy Bobby Brown led showed Whitney the road to the drugs and crack cocaine and the other AWFUL things that America had to watch with Whitney.

Next: It was definitely Whitney's choice to follow. Because every single living breathing adult is responsible for their own actions.

BUT likewise, Bobby Brown gets the *CREDIT* for showing HIS WIFE the crap to begin with, and then continuing to take her DOWN THE ROAD. THAT PART *IS* Bobby Brown's PERIOD.

Whitney's fault for following - Bobby's for showing HIS WIFE for taking her their, and NEVER guiding her out.

If you dont accept those points - then you have your head buried in the sand as far as I am concerned.
