[post_page_title]I Will Always Love You – A colleague[/post_page_title]
Dolly Parton released I Will Always Love You in 1969, but the song reached a new level when Whitney Houston sang it in 1992. The song seems to be written about the end of a romantic relationship when both parties know it’s over, but that won’t stop them from loving each other.
Dolly Parton wrote the song as a tribute to a work colleague, legendary country singer Porter Wagoner. The pair worked together for seven years, and Dolly wrote the song as thanks to Wagoner for everything he did.
