Whitney Houston, Dolly Parton called and she’s taking her song back.
A few months after outraged Aussies streamed en masse out of Whitney Houston gigs in Sydney and Brisbane, a Taiwanese boy put Houston’s current vocals to shame with an amazing cover of the (admittedly pretty awful already) Whitney Houston version of Dolly Parton’s “I Will Always Love You.” Rumors that Houston’s skills are gone for good have been circulating for a while, but the clip below seems to bear that out. Crack- whack, indeed.
I’ve always found her music to be intolerable, but even to a non-fan, the caliber of the performance below is shockingly bad.
