And I will always love you

My new appreciation for country music has led me to absolutely despise Whitney Houston's version of I Will Always Love You. I mean, it was never one of my favorite songs, but I would (bass drum thump) scream AND IIIII-IIIIIII-IIIIII WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU right along with Whitney because it was my American right to do so. Although I was never really familiar with Dolly Parton's version, I felt as though Whitney's version was lacking something, and I blamed the song...Dolly Parton's poetry.. for leaving me feeling somewhat empty and confused. I never really understood the song, really. What the hell is Whitney singing about?

And then I listened to Dolly's version. OHHHHHH. I GET IT NOW.. I TOTALLY GET IT NOW. OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS SONG. I want to hug Dolly... and maybe take Whitney to rehab.
