Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You Official Music Video



We lost Whitney Houston last night at the age of 48; For me she was my all time favorite artist. She came on the scene in the 80's and I just loved her. I knew and still know all of her songs. She always had a song that felt like she was singing about my life. And as a teacher, The Greatest Love of All is our anthem.
Those who know me would never believe it unless they saw it but when I lived in Austin, my friends and I used to go to a restaurant that had kareoke night every Thursday. And yes, I would get up on that stage in front of a room full of strangers and belt out I Will Always Love You. I idolized her so much that I didn't much care that I didn't sound that good (LOL). I know after awhile people stopped going in on Thursday nights so they didn't have to listen to me sing. I absolutely loved it; it was my tribute to her....what a special time in my life.
As the I Will Always Love You song ends I say to Whitney, "Darling I love you, I will always ..... I will always love you"
I hope you are resting peacefully Whitney; You will be missed but never forgotten.
