i can tell you for a fact that BoRhap does not appear on my list Jerome,
whilst it is an incredible showcase of what could be achieved in the studio im not a big fan of the song overall.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
so on with the next song on my list:
"I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU"
gorgeous love song written in 1973 by Dolly Parton.
the song was originally written with Elvis Presley in mind, however, when Dolly's publishers approached the Presley organisation Presley's manager Tom Parker demanded 50% of the writing and publishing royalties to pass the song on to Elvis.
Dolly refused saying that it took her heart and soul to write and she would not give away royalties to anyone for any reason, thus Elvis Presley never got the chance to record the song and i often wonder what he would have done with it.
Dolly herself, turned the song into a beautiful country love song ballad which i absolutely love but it took soul/R+B singer Whitney Houston to take it to the next level and send it somewhere Dolly Parton never could have dreamed of.
i have heard Linda Ronstadt sing it also but Whitney Houston owns this song IMO.
