Davis sings a new tune for BMG brass

Arista founder Clive Davis made a surprise appearance at BMG's worldwide conference Wednesday. Arriving shortly past lunch, Davis presented Whitney Houston's upcoming Greatest Hits release to a roomful of BMG executives.

The two-CD compilation will feature Houston hits "I Will Always Love You," "All At Once," "Where Do Broken Hearts Go," "It's Not Right, But It's Okay," "I'm Every Woman" and "How Will I Know." The package will also feature new tracks and remixes. Davis danced around the stage as Houston's new duet with George Michael, "If I Told You That," played over the speakers. The duet will be the first international single off the album.

Other songs presented were "Could I Have This Kiss Forever" sung with Enrique Iglesias (set to be the first U.S. single) and a demo of "Same Script, Different Cast," which Houston sings with Deborah Cox. Davis (whose contract with BMG runs out June 30), thanked the audience of executives, saying: "Here's to the future of everyone."
