I had to click on the link (even though I'm sick to death of this song) because for a minute I thought you meant Linda McCartney and I was scared.

It was so much "better" live, but then I have always thought Linda Ronstadt was superior live to any recording of her I ever heard.

I'm pretty sure christiangirl knew that Dolly Parton wrote and originally sang the song. Dolly Parton is making money from the success of Houston's version regardless.
My apologies.

(Though you know if it had been Etta James being discussed, Dr.Phil . . . And I'm just glad to see a post from you.)

Hi, MysticCat

Did we discuss the Glen Miller (Mack Gordon/Harry Warren) original in the Etta James has died thread?

Very good point. No, I don't think so. It got discussed somewhere else (along with more recent versions of the song), but not in that thread I don't think.

I know.

You all go create an "I Will Always Love You" thread like we did for "At Last."

^^^I remember a similar discussion in the thread about how remakes suck. Someone brought up how awful Dolly's remake of IWALY was and someone had to gently tell them that was the original. Hilarity ensued.

Duuuuude you can't "fix" a restatement of someone else's post. Now it's not fixed, it's just inaccurate because that's not what they said!

I hope this shows people that Bobby may have been her partner in crime, but that she was not an innocent. Still, RIP.

I don't have a link to the story but an old friend of Houston came out and said that Whitney has been using cocaine since high school...way before Bobby came into the picture.
