Whitney Houston New Single Confirmed.

惠媽喊了許久的復出大碟，目前傳出已經選定首波主打單曲『I Didn't Know My Own Strength』，但發行日未定！

Songwriter Diane Warren says “Whitney’s Back!”

Rumors of Whitney Houston’s return have been swirling for years. Now, Diane Warren, the songwriter behind Houston’s comeback single, has the goods. “The song is called ‘I Didn’t Know My Own Strength’,” Warren told an audience at the Experience Music Project’s annual Pop Conference in Seattle on Friday. "Whitney's back. Big time.”

Warren said she wrote the song specifically for Houston. “I tried to get inside her head,” Warren said about the track, which Houston performed at Clive Davis’ Pre-Grammy Gala on February 7. “Strength” will be featured on the 45-year-old singer’s seventh solo album, and will be produced by famed hitmaker David Foster. The still-untitled project has been speculated as a 2009 release, but that date is not confirmed. During her on stage talk with the Los Angeles Times’ Ann Powers, Warren also spoke at length about her long and incredibly successful career, including her No. 1 singles for artists ranging from Aerosmith (“I Don’t Want To Miss a Thing”), Celine Dion (“Because You Loved Me”“) and Toni Braxton (“Unbreak My Heart”).

Whitney Houston Nabs Unbreak My Heart Writer's 'Strength' As First Single

Whitney Houston is known for well crafted songs including "I Have Nothing" and "My Love Is Your Love," so it should come as no surprise that "The Voice" wants nothing but the best for her comeback.

With that said noted songwriter Diane Warren, the pen behind Toni Braxton's breakthrough single "Unbreak My Heart" and Celine Dion's "Because You Loved Me," says she'll be behind Houston's first single "I Didn't Know My Own Strength" !

Warren, speaking with VIBE's Sean Fennessey, let the goods go on Houston's anticipated first single from the as-yet-untitled comeback project rumored to be due later this year over the weekend.

『Whitney's back big time, the song is called "I Didn't Know My Own Strength"』 said Warren.

As previously reported on Singersroom, noted producer David Foster produced the single and has echoed Warren's sentiment when it comes to the diva's return to the stage and studio:

"Whitney is a girl that everybody would like to see come back and, in this case, it really would be a comeback. A lot of people say, 'Come back? I never left.' But Whitney did leave and she hasn't recorded in about 10 years, I believe. So this truly would be a comeback," Foster shared in March.

While Houston's forthcoming effort does not have a release date at this time, the diva has made several high profile appearances including a showstopping return at Clive Davis' Pre-Grammy bash and as a presenter at both the BET Honors and Grammy Awards.
