Welcome Home Heroes with Whitney Houston, was Whitney Houston's first ever solo televised concert and DVD/video release.
The DVD/video presents Houston performing live at the Naval Air Station in Norfolk, Virginia on March 31, 1991. The video was originally released on May 14, 1991, and the DVD was released in 2002. The concert was dedicated to the troops, their families, and military and government dignitaries in honor of those returning from the Gulf War.
The DVD was later re-released in the United States and released worldwide with the title A Song for You.
Following her performance of "The Star-Spangled Banner" during the Super Bowl, Houston decided to carry it over into a concert to honor the troops, their families, and military and government dignitaries in honor of those returning from the Gulf War. The concert was broadcast live on HBO. The cable network agreed to unscramble its signal allowing it to be available to over 50 million cable households. The concert was open to only 3,100 people, all of whom were either military personnel or their families. The show won a Cable ACE award for "Performance music special" in 1992.
Khandi Alexander was the choreographer for Whitney Houston's show as well as her world tours from 1988 through 1992.
