The Bodyguard joined film and recording in 1992. Its soundtrack includes Houston’s interpretation of Dolly Parton’s I Will Always Love You, separating a famous performance from the original songwriting credit.

Her screen work included Waiting to Exhale and executive-producing Cinderella. The Rock Hall’s 2020 solo induction recognised the career’s lasting influence.

My Love Is Your Love arrived in November 1998 as Houston’s first non-soundtrack album in eight years. The official archive describes a six-week recording period and work with hip-hop songwriters and producers. That distinction explains the gap between her studio albums without overlooking the film music she recorded in between.

The track list includes Heartbreak Hotel, It’s Not Right But It’s Okay and the title song, as well as When You Believe from The Prince of Egypt. The archive identifies a GRAMMY for the vocal performance on It’s Not Right But It’s Okay, giving listeners a specific recording to explore beyond the familiar ballads.

The Preacher’s Wife soundtrack, released in November 1996, brings Houston’s church-music background into a film project. Alongside I Believe in You and Me and Step by Step, its programme includes I Go to the Rock and Joy to the World, with the Georgia Mass Choir among the performers.

The official track list distinguishes film and record versions of I Believe in You and Me and includes a remix of Step by Step. These are useful edition details: similarly titled tracks on playlists may be different versions, even when they come from the same soundtrack.
