[better1231000]

I love, love, love Whitney sooooooooooo much

[un1onjackbob]

I love John Holt's version

[LadeeH101]

Now I have nothing against the Isley Brother's version because that's my favorite too, but I love the way Whitney sung this song though!!! This instrumental, does something to me, like every one else said "SING IT WHITNEY!!!!"

[GlowingMpd]

@wuyunong123

George Michael never made this?

[wuyunong123]

There are three best version of this song by Whitney Houston, The Isleys and George Michael

[endlessslinda]

wow what a beautiful song, i've never heard before!!!

[Elegance469]

Every time I hear this song, it makes me wish that I was laying on the beach somewhere in the Bahamas on a beautiful sunrise morning with my woman.

[Sugastack]

Omg... I was 15 when her debut album came out and who back then didn't want to be Ms.Whitney Houston or sing like her? I will always love these songs from that era and reminisce about the fun times.

[donnnamarq7]

One of my favorite Whitney songs!

[nocantell]

BEAUTIFUL!! Mahalo for posting this. Whitney's voice is so silky smooth.

[willpoole88]

every note is gold im going to die in love with this woman

[SeptemberEclipse]

Great Song, Just Had a moment and it was here!!! Thanks!!!

[cuzimgd]

I still love this song.... one of my favorites

[TheMusicLife007]

The Best song ;)  yeahh ;)

[bumchef1]

Timeless Masterpiece

[manny73330]

YESSSS Whitney, you better sing..

[poetryselite]

Whitney Houston's vocals were so beautiful in her prime that just the angelic vocals alone propose a more than substantial argument for her legacy in the realm of R&B (top 10 personally). There was simply not a song she couldn't sing... what a gift for one to possess. There will never be another WHITNEY HOUSTON.

[88mroux]

Beautiful Song! Soo Romantic!!!!

[better1231000]

This song is soooooo sweet. It is more than sweet. I pray for Whitney everyday so that she can come back to where she divinely belongs.

[simplysole]

good version !!

[TheCaulfield1]

The melody of this tune simply takes me away.....gorgeous song! xxxx

[rayrobs24]

Love Ronald for this track

[jebbs3]

I pray she comes back where she belongs.

[jojo34209]

Oh Whitney, we miss you dearly.

[Sugerbag]

This song still sweet sweet sweet!

[wilcalj2]

@GaddafiIsAGreatMan really Ron Isley is still in the game has been for over forty years is she?

[rimshotboi]

lyrically and musically excellent! Both the Isley Brothers & Whitney make this one of the best love songs of all time.

[dewmikester1]

My favorite Whitney song too...Super sounds!!

[better1231000]

Fantastic version. I pray for Whitney everyday. I pray she recovers from her drug problem.

[frsh6272]

@better1231000 that is sweet to hear.

[BootsyJ]

Yuck. Sounds too sync 80's.

[hpiracing101]

wow this is a clear version! its like perfect! way to go!! thanks for sharing!

[better1231000]

Excellent version !!!

[westluxnick]

F...k Bobby Brown ruin a great girl.I know Man makes woman.Very sad.But she is a strong woman she will survive

[wilcalj2]

This pop version doesn't even come close to the Isley Brothers original

[Shiftingfly]

HAS ANYONE GOT THE EXTENDED VERSION OF THIS SONG? I HAD THE ORIGINAL 12 INCH AND HAVE SEARCHED HIGH AND LOW FOE A REPLACEMENT.

[Elegance469]

@Shiftingfly I didn't know there was an extended version. What was different about it?

[Shiftingfly]

@Elegance469 .. you are right, it was not a stand alone single, but on the B side of SO Emotional. I owned a copy of the 12" and it had the extended remix... it starts with the beautiful back ground vocal uuh uuh. (1:50 on this version) and ended with a killer sax solo by kenny G.....

[lynette7755]

This is my first time seeing this, it is really Great! I also love this song. i like the beautiful picture. ThankYou for making her look real Good. She is one of my favorite singers in the world. I am actually crying***listening to this song and what she is going through at the present time. I know she will come around. THANKYOU!!!

[zaininho100]

love love love this one !!!!!!!

[Tedenilson]

Linda música! Minha favorita também! Show!!!

[kemosabe254]

Some songs should never be redone, but Whitney, did justice to this song. I'm sorry Isley Bro's, but I like this version better!

[Elegance469]

@kemosabe254 I agree with you 100%!!!!

[libertarienne]

[rocdavon]

[youngdebraa]

[viewdemonde]

I know how you all feel, but she followed Bobby down that road. I hope she gets back, out of the darkness.

[better1231000]

[JoeyJonesIsASexGod]

Had a Horrible and frustrating day today and I must say....I'm a singer and I have never NEVER heard this version sung by Whitney.....and I'm in awe and my frustration has completely melted away. I'm in complete relaxation mode and I'm just in heaven listening to this angel's voice.....sang it Whitney...SANG it.

[palmeras06]

[useable100]

She bring a smooth jazzy feeling to this song..a great compliment to the Isley Brothers version. if they were honoring the Isley's, she would have been my choice to do this song.

[MsTracie]

Great video and one of her best songs. Damn Bobby Brown! She was a princess that went hood. Sometimes that's good but this time was so wrong.

When a singer can remake a song and make it sound as good as the original, that's a great singer, there will be no other like her.

[MsBambi76]

[mabelbbatista]

I love it!

[donnnamarq7]

Love Whitney's smooth version of this song.

[irina1296]

My personal favorite Whitney's Non-single track of the 80's - really stunning lyrics and music is brilliant. This track should have been released as a single. I miss old good the 80's, i miss old Whitney, I miss old Madonna, i miss old Tina Turner, Cher, Belinda Carlisle, Sandra etc

'For the Love of You' represents real music of the 80's

[FamousMikeyG]

@irina1296

This is also one of my fave Whitney Houston tunes, but it WAS released as a single... a vinyl 7" single, a remixed extended 12" single, as well as on a CD Single containing the remix.

I guess Clive at Arista did have second thoughts about releasing this song as a single though. On the cover of the US 12", the title read FOR THE LOVE OF YOU, but after the covers were printed, they covered up the title with a sticker that read DIDN'T WE ALMOST HAVE IT ALL..

[turolu]

@irina1296 I love Whitney and yes, she HAD the voice of an angel but the isley brothers released this originally in the 70s and I must say, much as I like the original and this cover, the best version of this song has to be the Angie Stone version - her duo with Candy dulfer really shows the class of the melody and words and brings a shiver to your skin.

[natdbsk]

@irina1296 totally agreed with whatever you said. 80s music cant compare with whatever's coming up now. love love love this song. :)

[antgrant]

@irina1296 Arista planned on releasing "For The Love Of You" as the second single from Whitney. Instead, they chose "Didn't We Almost Have It All" at the last minute. I think it was an excellent choice, being the 5th of 7 consecutive #1 singles from Whitney Houston. I also think that "Didn't We Almost Have It All" is the most vocally challenging songs from the Whitney album.

[upt123]

To say that I'm the biggest Whitney fan would surely start a fight among us Whitney fanatics, but ... I AM! I absolutely adore her voice, she is wonderful and although I'm totally captivated by this tune The Isley Brothers are due their credit.

[ohwhitney]

LOL I JUST HEARD THE ORIGINAL WITH SOME GUY SINGIN THIS . I WAS LIKE OH DAMN I KNOW THIS SONG FROM SOMEWHERE. WHITNEYS VERSION IS MUCH BETTER LOL.

[amipedro2000]

NICE!!!!!

[longstrong123z]

I love this song soooo much.

[SweetSweatJones]

[rodgermourtagh]

I love this. It´s bad that the video ends too early.

Anyway, I play this on my ipod very often. I love you Whitney

[98Jazzybabe]

I love whitney no matter what!

[longstrong123z]

This song makes me love Whitney the more !!!

[thfc1965]

Love this song, love Whitney the memories come flooding back. Always reminds me of someone very special.....

[khmg123]

Best remake of this soul classic. One that has gone unnoticed for a long time.

[ladigbaj]

classic cutt.. whitney at her best.. Loving this track by the Issey brothers to the end. Wicked lyrics...

[verausity]

How DARE she? This is a soulless cover song... doesn't even qualify as a remake. Isley's gave it soul... this is glorified karaoke.

[verausity]

How DARE she? This is a souless cover song... doesn't even qualify as a remake. Isley's gave it soul... this is glorified karaoke.

[1502ct]

[vivandav67]

[nippyluv]
