And now, as I think, Doris Collins will be with us shortly.
But now we meet one of the most successful singers of recent years.
One of those performers for whom statistics were invented.
Her first album sold 14 and a half million copies.
Her second already sold more than 11 million.
A remarkable success story so far.
And there's more to come for Whitney Houston.
[F] [Dm] [Em] [F]
[G] [Ab] [N]
Yes, they seem in a funny way quite pleased to see you as well.
Anyway, welcome.
I'm glad that you're on the show.
[Ab] Now, we were a little confused about the relationships.
Because earlier on I was working on her to introduce you.
And we said, Aretha Franklin's her grandmother.
Sissy Houston's her cousin.
What's your relationship to all these very famous names?
[G] Aretha is a friend.
Yes, she is.
She's a friend of the family.
And Sissy Houston's your mother.
Is my mother.
And Dionne Warwick is my cousin.
Well, with that kind of background, you had to be a singer, hadn't you?
I guess so.
[C] You know, kind of.
I wasn't [G] forced to be a singer, but I wanted to sing.
But with those great influences, it was great to have that around.
When did you start [Abm] singing in church?
Because [G] I know your mother is [N] a minister of music.
Of music there, yes.
In church.
I started in church singing very young.
And I guess about 13 or 14 I [B] decided that I wanted to [Db] professionally sing.
[B] And my mom took me by the hand and [G] we went to the studio.
And I learned my chops there.
And then on the weekend, I would sing in the nightclub with my mother.
So [Em] you were able to combine that rather
It was a strict [Ab] Baptist upbringing, wasn't it?
I mean, your mother is a very devout Baptist.
[G] Yes, she is.
[D] It was quite strict.
How can you combine that with the razzle-dazzle of show business?
Well, it's great because it [Em] sort of keeps your head on straight.
And you [G] have a good perspective on things.
So it kind of helped me out a lot.
Does your mother advise you when you're singing now? Oh, absolutely.
She's not a woman who forces you to do anything [F] or tells you what to do.
It's kind of like when she sees little things, she'll [D] indicate that this is this.
I always ask her for advice anyway.
[Abm] Does she drag you back into church every so often to sing?
[D] Oh, yeah.
Yeah, she beats [B] me back into church.
[Em] Yeah, she does.
Your [Gb] success story has been extraordinary in such a short time.
[Gm] Massive records.
You've just won a Grammy.
[Gb] Yes.
How old are [G] you now? I'm 24.
Oh, bless us.
[E] You've peaked.
Do you feel there's not much more for me to [N] do?
I hope not.
I hope I've got some more to do.
But that's the problem, isn't it?
You've achieved so much at [Abm] 24.
Well, I think there's [N] still more to go.
I would like to think, yeah.
Well, it's good to see you here.
I hope you're going to sing for us.
Will you do that?
Ladies and gentlemen, Whitney Houston.

[D] [A]
[Bm] [Gbm] [G]
know [D] it's been some time.
[B] There's something on [Bm] my mind.
[Em] You see, I haven't been the same
[A] since that cold November day.
[D] We said we needed space.
[B] But all we found was an [Bm] empty place.
[Em] And they all said we were going to die.
The only things I [G] learned
is that I need you desperately.
[Gbm] So here [Bm] I am.
[Em] And can you please [G]
tell [A] me
[D] where do [A] broken hearts [G]

[D] I'm not sure
And if [A] somebody
loves [G] you
won't they [D] always love you?
[G] I look in [D] your eyes
[Em] and I know

[Dbm] [Bm]
[Gbm] [G] [D] I've been around

no easy way
[A] and we just can't run
[D] We had
so much more
[A] than we ever had [Bm] before
[Em] And no matter
how I try
[G] you're always on
[Gbm] So here [Bm] I am
[Em] And can you please

won't they [D] always love you?
[G] I look in [D] your eyes
[Em] and I know
that you [G] still care [D] for me
[C] [G] And now

[F]
and [G] now
[Bb]
[Eb] [Dm] [Ab] can they find [Eb] their way

[Bb] loves [Ab] you
won't they [Eb] always love you?
[Ab] I look
in [Eb] your eyes
and [Fm] I know that you [Ab] still care
[Eb] for me And [Bb] [Ab] now
can they find [Eb] their way
[Ab] home back to [Eb] the opener
[Fm] of a love that's waiting
[Ab] there?
[Eb] And if somebody
[Bb] [Ab] won't they [Eb] always
[Ab] I look in [Eb] your eyes
