1. I seem to recall that version put a few tits in wringers at the time.
I love seeing/hearing it brought back.

10. You beat me to it!
I remember hearing it the first time she sang it and I got choked up. I have never heard a better version of the National Anthem than the one sang by Whitney....

9. Usually, the answer to ANY question that goes:
"Is there a better version of (insert song title) than Marvin Gaye's" . . . the answer would be "NO".
