Yes, it’s Dolly Parton! However, few people know that she is the author of the famous song “I Will Always Love You,” long before Whitney Houston turned it into a global hit.
In the 70s, an icon like Elvis Presley even expressed a desire to cover this song. She was invited to the studio to discuss the project with him.
It was an unforgettable, almost surreal meeting. Yet, true to her values and instincts, she refused. This song was born from her heart, and she wanted it to remain true to her.
She chose to perform it herself, as an emotional farewell to her mentor Porter Wagoner.
Then, nearly twenty years later, Whitney Houston immortalized the ballad by including it in the soundtrack for the movie The Bodyguard, which sold over 20 million copies worldwide.
What a trajectory! From a childhood marked by simplicity to becoming an international legend, she embodies strength, authenticity, and perseverance.
Her story reminds us all that even the wildest dreams can come true, no matter where we come from.
