25 Years Of ‘The Bodyguard’ Celebrated With New Whitney Houston Album
Believe it or not, Whitney Houston’s mega-selling soundtrack for The Bodyguard turns 25 on November 17. Legacy Recordings and the late diva’s estate are celebrating the anniversary by releasing a new posthumous album. I Wish You Love: More From The Bodyguard combines previously unreleased live recordings, alternate versions of hit songs and an unused remix. The must-have for hardcore fans (or anyone feeling nostalgic for the ’90s) will be available on CD and limited edition purple vinyl. You can pre-order here.
Each track is explained in detail below, but I’m particularly excited to hear the alternate version of “I Will Always Love You,” which features a different introduction, a live recording of “Run To You” from The Bodyguard World Tour — a song the pop icon rarely performed. There’s also a previously unreleased remix of “I’m Every Woman” by famed ’90s DJs Clivilles & Cole. See the full tracklist and the album cover below.
