What can you tell me about So Emotional by Whitney Houston? – A

You may not have heard of So Emotional songsmiths Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly but they wrote or co-wrote an album’s worth of ’80s hits including, for starters, Madonna’s Like A Virgin, Cyndi Lauper’s True Colours, Heart’s Alone, and The Bangles’ Eternal Flame. So Emotional gave Whitney her sixth of

seven consecutive US No 1s, and reached No 5 in the UK.
