The train wreck named "Whitney"

Whitney Houston's much-publicized comeback has missed the gate and is speeding down the wrong track towards the train wreck we hoped would be avoided, yet could see coming.

Ms. Houston, touring in London, offered up a rendition of I Will Always Love You which was so bad that many in the audience exited the O2 arena.  While this is a very rough recording, you can catch enough of the audio to hear the failed attempts at reaching the high notes:

While the singer stayed onstage for about two hours, she often appeared out of breath and was very visibly sweating, long a problem for the talented performer.  And, this concert wasn't the only issue during her current tour--she failed to show for the first three gigs earlier this month due to a "respiratory infection."
