What genre is the song Salute by Whitney Houston?

Answer 1

It's a power Ballad, with a rhythmic cadence that is like a march (she sings about being a "soldier girl in my world"). Some people say it was about Bobby Brown, but that is difficult to prove, since Whitney did not write it-- R. Kelly did, and he sang backing vocals on it. More likely, it could refer to her own career and to the people who let her down or disappointed her, Brown among them, as well as to the people who said she was finished as a performer.
