@loughneagh: Teddy Pendergrass & Whitney Houston – 🎵 – Hold Me – 1984 Before Whitney Houston’s debut album had even arrived, she was already appearing on the Billboard Hot 100. And she was doing it beside Teddy Pendergrass. Released in 1984 on Teddy’s Love Language, Hold Me became Whitney’s first Hot 100 appearance and reached the Top 5 on the US R&B chart. Then Whitney’s own album exploded. But when Grammy season came around, there was a strange twist. She was ruled ineligible for Best New Artist because she had already appeared as a featured performer on earlier releases, including this duet and a recording with Jermaine Jackson. Clive Davis publicly fought the decision. Before the No.1s. Before the superstardom. Before most of the world knew what was coming. Whitney was already here. Do you remember hearing this before Whitney became a superstar? #WhitneyHouston #TeddyPendergrass #HoldMe #80sMusic #SoulMusic
Whitney Houston is a once in a generation gifted singer with an angelic voice.

Beautiful song but Whitney’s voice was not used to it’s full potential in this song .. it’s almost like she’s holding back

Before all of her other hits on her debut album this was my favorite Whitney Houston song. The lyrics, her vocals and Teddy P. Man this song had it all. Fun fact, I think it was played on an episode of Miami Vice. There's something in your eyes I see. Beautiful!
