Saving All My Love For You - Whitney Houston - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"Saving All My Love for You" by Whitney Houston is a timeless ballad that became one of her signature songs. Released on August 13, 1985, as the second single from her self-titled debut album, the song was written by Michael Masser and Gerry Goffin. It was initially recorded by Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr., but it was Whitney Houston's rendition that catapulted the song to worldwide fame. The song topped the Billboard Hot 100, marking Houston’s first number 1 hit in the United States and beginning her record-setting streak of seven consecutive chart-topping singles. The song’s lyrics tell the story of a woman involved in an affair, waiting for her lover to leave his partner. Musically, "Saving All My Love for You" is a slow, seductive ballad with a prominent saxophone solo, underscoring the song's sultry mood. The music video, which depicted this storyline, generated controversy at the time due to its portrayal of infidelity. Despite this, the song won Houston her first Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance in 1986.
