The Bodyguard is the soundtrack from the movie of the same name, released on November 17, 1992, on Arista Records and features songs by Whitney Houston, as well as songs from various other artists. The album was co-executive produced by Whitney Houston and Clive Davis. With this album, Houston became the first act (solo or group, male or female) to sell more than a million copies of an album within a single week period, since the Nielsen SoundScan introduced a computerized sales monitoring system in May 1991. The soundtrack later went on to win a Grammy Award for Album of the Year and was certified 17× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America on November 1, 1999.[1] To date, it has sold over 44 million copies worldwide, becoming the best-selling soundtrack album of all time.

Production history

Houston served as executive producer (as she did on her previous release I'm Your Baby Tonight), giving her full control over the song selections for this album. Houston planned to record "What Becomes of the Broken Hearted" as the film's theme song, however, when they found out another film was going to use it, they searched for another song. Kevin Costner, the film's co-star, thought of recording "I Will Always Love You", originally released by Dolly Parton. While recording the album, Houston insisted on using her touring band as opposed to a studio band.[2] Houston also included a gospel song for the album. She co-produced and arranged the music for "Jesus Loves Me" with Bebe Winans.

Commercial performance

The Bodyguard Original Soundtrack Album debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 chart and the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, behind Ice Cube's The Predator, selling 144,500 copies in its first week.[3][4] In its second week, the album topped both of the charts, with sales of 292,000 units.[5][6][7] While the album stayed the summit on the charts, it broke the record for the most one-week sales twice. In its fifth week, it sold 831,000 copies, smashing the old sales record of 770,000 set by Guns N' Roses' Use Your Illusion II in the fall of 1991.[8] The following week, the album once again set a record for the most albums sold in a single week (1,061,000 copies) since the Nielsen SoundScan introduced a computerized sales monitoring system in May 1991, making it the first album to sell over 1 million copies in one week.[9][10] Less than a year later, the record was broken again by Garth Brooks with Double Live, which sold 1,085,000 copies in November 1998.[10] The soundtrack stayed at number one for twenty non-consecutive weeks on the Billboard 200 chart, and spent eight consecutive weeks atop the Top R&B Albums chart, remaining on the charts for a total of 141 weeks and 122 weeks, respectively.[11][12][13] The album holds the record for the most weeks at number one, and the record for the most non-consecutive chart-topping weeks on the Billboard 200 chart in the Nielsen SoundScan era.[14]

Due to its incredible staying power on the charts, The Bodyguard soundtrack was ranked #1 in several categories of 1993 Billboard year-end charts, including Top Billboard 200 Album and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Album.[15] In addition, the album was the first in Nielsen SoundScan history to rank among the top three albums in two consecutive years (#3 for 1992, #1 for 1993), and the best-selling soundtrack by the National Association of Recording Merchandisers (NARM) in 1993-1994.[16][17] When the soundtrack to The Bodyguard was credited as a Whitney Houston album in Billboard's archives, she became the only artist with three albums to remain on top of the Billboard 200 chart for over ten weeksㅡWhitney Houston (14 weeks), Whitney (11 weeks) and The Bodyguard: Original Soundtrack Album (20 weeks). Houston also broke the record for the most cumulative weeks at number one by a female artistㅡa record she still holds at 46 cumulative weeks.[18]

The album received the largest initial certification of any album for 6× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America(RIAA) on January 18, 1993.[19] The record was broken by 'N SYNC's No Strings Attached, certified 7× Platinum initially in April 2000.[20] On March 16, 1999, when the RIAA launched the Diamond Awards, honoring sales of 10 million copies or more of an album or single, the album received the award with sixty-two other albums initially.[21][22] It was certified 17× Platinum by the RIAA on November 1, 1999, becoming the best-selling soundtrack album of all-time in United States.[23][24][25] According to the Nielsen SoundScan, as of 2010, it sold 11,815,000 copies, becoming the fifth best-selling album of SoundScan era in the United States.[26]

In 1992-1993, with the huge international success of the film The Bodyguard, the soundtrack was also a phenomenal hit worldwide.[27] The album reached the number one in almost all countries. It topped the albums chart in Australia for five weeks,[28] Austria for nine weeks,[29] Canada for twelve weeks,[30] France for eight weeks, Germany for eleven weeks,[31] Hungary for two weeks,[32] Italy for two weeks, Japan for two weeks,[33] Netherlands for six weeks,[34] New Zealand for eight weeks,[35] Norway for six weeks,[36] Sweden for four weeks,[37] Switzerland for nine weeks.[38] In the United Kingdom, the album didn't chart on the main albums chart because compilation albums were excluded from the main albums chart from January 1989.[39] Instead, the album reached the top on the official compilation albums chart and stayed there for eleven weeks, spending sixty non-consecutive weeks in the top 10 and for a total of 107 weeks on the chart. Through its massive success across Europe, it topped the European Top 100 Albums chart for fifteen non-consecutive weeks.[40] In the U.K., the album was certified 7× platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) on January 1, 1994,[41] and has sold 2,138,030 copies, landing at number fifty-three on the list of UK's 100 best-selling albums of all time, announced by The Official UK Charts Company in November, 2006.[42] In Japan, it was certified 2× million by the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) in 1994, the first time a foreign artist achieved that feat in Japanese music history, and eventually became the best-selling foreign album with 2.8 million copies sold.[43][44] The record was later broken by Mariah Carey's #1's, certified 3× million in 1998.[44] In Germany, the album has sold more than 1.7 million, earning 3× platinum awards by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI).[45][46] In addition, it was awarded Diamond for the sales of over 1.4 million and 1 million in France and Canada, respectively.[47][48] It has sold 1.1 million in Brazil, becoming the best-selling international album by a female artist,[49] and set a record for the best-selling foreign album with the sales of 1.2 million over in South Korea.[50][51] In Australia, it became the best selling album of 1993.[52] In Mexico, the soundtrack sold more than 500,000 copies, making it the best-selling English-language record in 1994.[53] To date, the album has sold over 44 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling soundtrack of all time.[54]

The album is most notable for Houston's version of "I Will Always Love You". The song received huge airplay, appealing to the pop, R&B, adult contemporary, and soul radio markets. The single spent 14 weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.[62] "I Will Always Love You" was successful worldwide, peaking at number one for 10 weeks in U.K., for 8 weeks in Switzerland, for 5 weeks in Austria, for 8 weeks in France, for 6 weeks in Netherlands, for 3 weeks in Sweden, for 9 weeks in Norway, for 10 weeks in Australia, for 11 weeks in New Zealand.[63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70]

With the next two Top 5 singles[71] "I'm Every Woman" (a Chaka Khan cover) and "I Have Nothing", following on the heels of "I Will Always Love You", Houston became the first female act to have three songs in the Top 20 simultaneously. Two songs, "Run To You" and "I Have Nothing", were each nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song,[72] but lost out to "A Whole New World" from the animated film Aladdin. The same two songs were nominated for Grammy Awards in the category Best Song Written Specifically for a Motion Picture or for Television. Other songs garnering significant radio airplay included "Jesus Loves Me" on gospel stations, and "Queen of the Night" on pop and dance stations.
