- Just some of the new albums out this week.
Whitney Houston Double CD Set, Whitney Houston
Celebrate Whitney's life by picking up this double CD set of two of her best-loved albums, My Love Is Your Love and I Look To You. Relive her biggest hits, including It's Not Right But It's Okay, her beloved Mariah Carey duet, When You Believe and catchy 2009 tune, Million Dollar Bill. Singing into your hairbrush not obligatory but encouraged for I Learned From The Best.
Rating 5 out of 5
Dh85, Virgin Megastores
Born To Die, Lana Del Rey
This young American singer has received a lot of flack for being "manufactured", but her album has now hit the shelves and we can assure you it makes a genuine impact. Her lyrics are sassy and at least 10 of the 12 tracks should stand their own in the charts. Born To Die and Video Games shine, but you shouldn't dismiss tracks like Blue Jeans or Summertime Sadness from the artist who has popped up from absolutely nowhere.
Rating 4 out of 5
Dh60, Virgin Megastores
