Sony Music, in cooperation with the estate of Whitney Houston, is celebrating the 25th anniversary of The Bodyguard: Original Soundtrack Album with the release of Whitney Houston — I Wish You Love: More from The Bodyguard today, in honor of the pop diva’s legacy.
Houston is acclaimed as one of the greatest female pop singers. She entered the film industry after achieving success in her singing career, starring in several blockbusters, including 1992’s The Bodyguard, the soundtrack for which is actually the best-selling original soundtrack of all time. In May 1997 she held a concert in Taiwan. In February 2012, she was found drowned in a bathtub at a hotel due to an overdose of drugs and alcohol. She was only 48 when she died.
The new album includes never-before-released live recordings from Houston’s iconic The Bodyguard Tour, and alternate versions of the audio recordings from the film — including her biggest megahit ever: I Will Always Love You.

After long periods of remaining indoors, people are making up for lost time by taking short, frequent getaways throughout the year. These brief trips avoid the work-life imbalance that comes with long absences. With only a few days away, one’s
Many consumers are guilty of filling drawers or closets with old laptops, cellphones, fitness trackers and other electronic devices once they are no longer needed.

The US’ Environmental Protection Agency estimates that less than a quarter of e-waste is

People fly to see their favorite artists perform — usually abroad—and spend a few days sightseeing before or after the show. While die-hard fans have done this since the 1960s, the post-pandemic travel boom changed the game. Even people who aren’t superfans are now booking international concert trips because they want to make the most of travel opportunities. This trend exploded in the US, as the math makes sense.
