Perfection in a song: Dolly Parton's I Will Always Love You

Dolly decided it was time to go out on her own, and I think Wagoner needed her more than she needed him by this time. The song was her way of saying goodbye.
I still watch those shows if they are aired on Dish Network.
No one can wear a wig like Dolly!

I might be remembering incorrectly, but I believe that Dolly wrote I will Always Love You and Jolene on the same day. Her talent is just on another level.
On a side note, she's probably the only celebrity I would like to meet. By all accounts I've read, she is a lovely person that has never let money or fame change her, she knows exactly who she is and where she came from and is proud of it and gives back to that community.

One of my favorites with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris:
