Whitney Houston’s rendition of the song “I Will Always Love You” made it a bonafide classic, but it was country music legend Dolly Parton who originally recorded the song.
Dolly Parton released the following statement about the passing of Whitney Houston on her website:
Mine is only one of the millions of hearts broken over the death of Whitney Houston. I will always be grateful and in awe of the wonderful performance she did on my song, and I can truly say from the bottom of my heart, ‘Whitney, I will always love you. You will be missed.’
