The passing of Whitney Houston is tragic. After the initial shock all I can do is shake my head. What a waste of talent. She had one of those unique voices, look and affect that was alluring, beautiful and amazing. Her rendition of the Star Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl several years ago was spectacular. Her voice seemed natural and pure.

She appeared to have it all...and yet she self destructed. What do you feel about her untimely demise?
