Both renditions are truly great but I still like Dolly Partons rendition better.
Whitney Huston's rendition while good lacks the sincerity that Dolly has in her rendition.
Also but and this is me Whitney's rendition just sounds to black to me.
The blacks have a way of vocalization that in my humble opinion totally messes up a lot of songs.
Whitney's rendition wasn't all that bad but it had enough of the black characteristics that it didn't feel right.
I agree, I can understand changing a delivery because you perform the same song over and over. Whitney was a major talent who allowed those she loved to use and abuse her to death.
