The
Bodyguard: Original Soundtrack Album [SOUNDTRACK]
Alan Silvestri, Whitney Houston, Various Artists
- Soundtracks - Song Collections, The S.O.U.L. S.Y.S.T.E.M

At the time of its release, this was the watershed for soundtracks,
selling a kazillion copies. It documents Whitney Houston's character
in the Kevin Costner movie, which required Houston to play only
herself (although one hopes she wouldn't end up with someone
as smarmy as Costner). The album is as much a testament to the
production of Babyface who, through the mid-1990s, actually
was the mainstream of contemporary hit music. Houston's singing
is much better than her acting, and almost every song enjoyed
a long tenure at the top of all the charts. Along with "I Will
Always Love You" and five other Houston songs, the soundtrack
also features Lisa Stansfield, Kenny G with Aaron Neville, and
Joe Cocker with Sass Jordan.
