One of my favorite Whitney Houston songs is this remake of the 1975 classic by the Isley Brothers, and her version features some nice arrangements and Kenny G on saxophone. Unfortunately, "For the Love Of You" was placed on the B-side of her #1 hit, "So Emotional" and I really thought that it should've been released as a single on its own and deserved to be a bigger hit. Whitney's version was nominated for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance at the 1988 Grammy Awards.
