I'm telling you. This woman's voice was from another planet. Her song on The Bodyguard soundtrack starts a cappella. For like 8,000 measures. They were worried before they put the song on the radio that it wouldn't work. Because no one had ever put a hit on pop radio with that much a cappella at the beginning. But her…
If you have ever doubted the immense talent that Whitney Houston possessed, take a listen to this isolated track of…
Fabulous! Thanks for the link.
Why would you change the music from the original? The choreography fits it so much better! Not that I'd be adverse to someone actually dancing to "pony"* but lets not pretend that Tom Jones isn't bringing the right energy here.
IT TRIES TO COVER IT UP WITH THE FUR.
I want to like this essay, but I don't. In fact, I hate it.
I think that the author makes a good point but I don't begrudge Carr and the MIT-guy their perspectives. Addiction and recovery are all-consuming endeavors in a person's life.

I think these essays relating oneself to Hoffman through the mental illness of addiction are attempts to bring awareness to this disease.

I wish more people understood this. Nobody picks up an addictive substance thinking "here's hoping this turns into a lifelong illness that might kill me!" So often, it's the prospect of not being ins inch terrible psychological pain that brings people to use. Congrats on your sobriety!
You're amazing.
Congrats on your year of sobriety.
Look at that! You got ALL the Jezzies pulling for you! You can do it! We believe in you.
Congrats on one year! I wish you many blessings, peace and continued strength in your personal battle.
I'm with badmutha—congratulations on your sobriety. My husband has been sober for over 20 years, and it's still a fight for him, but he fights hard. Stay strong, and know you are the winner every day that you do stay strong.
Mega congrats on your sobriety. I've lost two very dear loved ones to addiction, so I know it's a struggle. If it makes any difference, you have at least one total stranger out there (me!) sending strong vibes to the universe in your favor.
Congrats on your sobriety. My husband has 5 years sober. It does get easier.
Congrats on your sobriety. Addiction is a bitch to be sure. Stay strong.
Seriously, Man on Wire is so good.
