Whitney Houston & a rare song - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Okay, for those of you who remember, in 1987, Whitney Houston's single I Wanna Dance with Somebody came out and on the B-side a song called Moment of Truth was on it. Moment of Truth was never included on the 1985 Whitney Houston album, the 1987 Whitney album or the 1990 I'm Your Baby Tonight album. Does anyone know why this song was never released on any albums? I'm curious because it's like my 3rd favorite Whitney song right after I Wanna Dance with Somebody and How Will I Know and am trying to get a copy of it.

Lots of artist do this. Im not exactly sure why, but sometimes... its either the singer probably didnt like the song.. or probably it was just a bonus thing, something extra for the fans. .. And maybe it didnt make the cut for the album

The song "Moment of Truth" was on a flip side of the 45 with "I Wanna Dance With Somebody". I'll have to look for it. It could be in lots of flea markets, yard sales, garage sales and thrift stores. That song was never been played on the radio since then.

When an artist records an album, they cut a lot more tracks than are actually on the album. This was just one that didn't happen to make the album, and was just put on the single as an extra song. Mariah, for example, has many B-sides. You could always check eBay for this single.

I like Whitney in the eighties but when she hooked up with Bad-a@s Bobby Brown, she started to change and if she didn't hook up with him, I would still like her, but he seemed to turn her into a whore!!
