  3. While announcing the release of Houston's posthumous greatest hits album I Will Always Love You: The Best of Whitney Houston in August 2012, Keith Caulfield from Billboard declared it Houston's "first authoritative greatest hits album" and referred to Whitney: The Greatest Hits as a compilation album due to its remix-infused track listing. [31] Numerous other journalists had also classified Whitney: The Greatest Hits as a compilation rather than a greatest hits album. [32] [21] [18]
  4. In his review of Whitney: The Greatest Hits for Daily News , Jim Farber gave Cool Down two stars, and Throw Down three, thus the album's overall grade averaged two and a half stars. [18]
