Dolly's Parton / Whitney's Houston I'll always love you verson. - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

cable_freak · 06-23-2004, 08:42 PM

The number one love song of all time is Dolly Partons I'll Always Love You. I wished that Whitney's Houston verson never made it on the chatrs. Her voice was so bad,she whined throught the whole song. Dolly's voice has one of the sweetest voices around,she can do alot,she did disco,pop, rock. She always seems true to her songs. Some say she's to much like hollywood and is stuck up, but I don't think so,she is and will be the queen of country. Who do u like Whitnys 'or Dollys. Of course Dolly's is mine. She recored the song 3 times,19769 i think)1982,and 1990's verson with Vince Gill, now she sang it again in 2004 on Top 100 love songs,on CMT.

Both versions make me want to vomit.

david&maddie4ever · 06-23-2004, 10:09 PM

I definitely like Whitney's better. I dunno...to me, the song seems like it needs a powerhouse voice, and Whitney's certainly got that.

Rhiannon · 06-24-2004, 12:09 PM

Dolly Parton's version I like better. I am a big Dolly fan, I like a lot of her music.

vienna waits · 06-24-2004, 12:23 PM

Tamyra Gray's version on Boston Public

I like Dolly's version better, she's so talented.

Dean Winchester · 06-24-2004, 02:45 PM

well, both songs are good in their own ways, they are vastly different inerpretations of the song.

It's like comparing the Supremes' You Keep Me Hanging On with the hard rock version by Vanilla Ice and dance-pop version by Kim Wilde, all three of them have something to offer.

Linda Ronstadt also did a good version of I Will Always Love You on her Hasten Down The Wind album.

Dolly's version (I don't know which version of hers I know) is more pleasant than Whitney's overly melodramatic record

Pitooey · 06-24-2004, 07:33 PM

I enjoy Whitney's version.

I'm not as outspoken as AKA but I have only heard Whitneys and I didn't think much of it. but then I don't think much of Whitney when she sings anything. Pretty woman but not my cup of tea. And her husband> I'd unload him.

I hate Whitney's rendition! All that caterwauling! Pul-eeze!Get over yourself girl!

Actually I am not crazy about either version but Dolly is just so darn precious! Gotta love her!

Kay Scarpetta · 09-04-2004, 07:25 PM

Well... seeing as Dolly Parton makes me want to claw my eyeballs out, I'll say Whitney.
