Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You

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.'[124]

I was brought to tears again last night, as I'm sure many were, when Jennifer Hudson sang \"I Will Always Love You\" on the Grammys in memory of Whitney. Like everybody else, I am still in shock. But I know that Whitney will live forever in all the great music that she left behind. I will always have a very special piece of her in the song we shared together and had the good fortune to share with the world. Rest in peace, Whitney. Again, we will always love you.[229][230]

Dolly Parton's beloved record \"I Will Always Love You\" was almost covered by fellow music icon Elvis Presley, but only if she'd been willing to give up publishing rights that went on to earn her at least $10 million in royalties.
