A Legacy is gone...

I do not really listen to old songs, not until my English tuition teacher shared this meaningful song to us. I immediately fell in love with it!

我不常听旧歌。当英文补习老师分享这首蘊含含义的歌时,我马上为之沉醉。




It is Whitney Houston, who awed the world with her sultry and powerful vocals, and her regal image. She was dubbed as the "Queen of Pop" and was popular back in the mid 80's until the late 90's.

她,就是云妮休斯顿。美妙、劲力十足的歌声,以及高贵的形象,使她红遍全球,冠为八、九十年代天后。







Her list of awards includes two Emmy Awards, six Grammy Awards, 30 Billboard Music Awards, 22 American Music Awards, among a total of 415 career awards as of 2010. Houston was also one of the world's best-selling music artists, having sold over 170 million albums, singles and videos worldwide.


她是唯一在美國擁有兩張最佳銷售前 35 名的專輯的女性歌手,更是唯一拥有在告示牌流行榜 (Billboard) 連續七週冠軍單曲紀錄的歌手。 惠妮在全世界有超過一億 7000 萬張專輯的銷售紀錄。

However, drugs and family problems took a toll on her career. 


And she has finally breathed her last on 11 February 2012 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.


Whitney, your music will be dearly missed, and your legacy will forever be in our hearts. R. I. P.
