The number of people who have no idea that I Will Always Love You is a Dolly Parton (and therefore a country) song alternately amuses and astonishes me. But then, I remember when Dolly first sang it. She once said that when the song first came out she started a nice little bank account. When she and Vince Gill covered it, the bank account got bigger. When Whitney Houston released it, Dolly bought the bank. (Edited based on Laura's comment, thanks Laura!)
