6.Whitney Houston, “My Love is Your Love”
In case you never picked up on it before, Whitney Houston’s 1999 comeback tune, produced by Wyclef and Jerry Wonda, was a Marley-esque reggae tune (you heard the dubplate?) set at the end of the times. This is a little bit different than the rest of the songs on this list in that it’s something of a celebratory love song, but the picture Whitney paints of love built to withstand an impending apocalypse is so vivid—and makes for an even more fitting inclusion in light of the limited time that a singer with a voice so often described as angelic had left on earth.
