Whitney Houston is completely content with her new, positive, sober life and she wants to surround herself with optimism so that’s why she is refusing to do any sappy, sad songs on her new album.

Houston, who has not released an album since 2003, has been working on a comeback LP over the past year. The record is expected the hits stores by the end of 2009.

Whitney has been collaborating with Ne-Yo on the album. He says her new stuff is definitely a reflection of her new life.

He says, “People are expecting something fantastic and I think they are going to get it. Whitney doesn’t want any sad songs on this record. She isn’t going for tear jerkers. She’s happy raising her children and wants her music to reflect that. It’s already sounding great.”
