Linda and Thom even wrote these songs, including the one made made famous by our beloved Whitney Houston- “Greatest Love of All.” On a side note, ILOSM fam’ please continue to keep Whitney’s and Bobby’s daughter, Bobbi Kris, in your thoughts and prayers, as well as all of her family and loved ones during this difficult time.

• “Greatest Love of All” – originally recorded by George Benson; later made famous by Whitney Houston
• “Hold Me” – Teddy Pendergrass (duet with Whitney Houston)

This information makes me think about what the world would be like if we all were able to just close our eyes and listen to the soul of a person, judging them and their actions solely off of that alone. Most of us probably never even knew that we were jammin’ to the work of a white woman when we were listening to these songs back in the day. But now that we know, I think I speak for most of us reading this when I say, it doesn’t change a thing about how those songs touched our soul and still do to this very day. If we all (as in all races) simply listened to our hearts, we as a society would prosper greatly in my humble opinion, but the world is so tainted now, I know that will probably be an uphill battle for many centuries to come, unfortunately. I can still have a dream though right?
