This show was 15 years ago, have a Google where she is now

It's a Song written and recorded by Dolly Parton

@@terrystikeleather4717 Thanks Terry🙏

I wouldn’t go to see her for free she isn’t that good🤷

@@orlandosoto6080 I respect your opinion.🙏

Whitney made it popular in the film "The Bodyguard" with Kevin Costner in 1992, which is why everyone thinks it's "her" song. Yes, Dolly released it originally in 1974, but it didn't quite have the same success for Dolly as it did for Whitney, hence the previous statement. Just saying...

​@@avisdaniels6194Dolly sang it at the end of her television show every week. I think you are sadly mistaken when you say that she didn't have the same success as Whitney. She sang it 100 times better than Whitney with zero effort.

@@avisdaniels6194and DOLLY WROTE IT

Yes, Dolly wrote it, but it will always be Whitney's song. Even Dolly would say much the same.

​@@avisdaniels6194Dolly also sang it to Burt Reynolds in the 1982 movie, Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. A very emotional scene.

Exactly!

regardless, she killed it

Dolly wrote it, because she was leaving the Porter Wagner show. However, Whitney made better.

maybe so but Whitney made it hers and its her version that so many try to imitate

Whitney executed better even Dolly knows

You are comparing a child to someone who od'd in the bathtub.

Really: I know a lot of people think Simon is kind of a jerk. But, he is an incredible judge of talent, when he says the performer is not singing up to par, or has picked the wrong song for themselves... he's always right. And, unlike some judges on these shows, you can tell that every cell in his body is listening to the performer, especially when they are surprisingly good. Amanda is the same way. And, when his often stern demeanor sees true talent, especially if the performer is genuine & has a measure of humility...he'll crack that wide, genuine smile, and you know "you've made it".

@msblue X Factor UK 2009 - Have a fantastic day :)

@@nickyemm4633 aaaah...2009!... Thanks... I was convinced plastic surgery was making the judges look so young and beautiful

Because it’s a fuqing hard song. Most can’t even pull it off

I agree it was ok for a party but she isn’t that special, nice young lady though 😊

@@orlandosoto6080 Yes mate I agree with that.

I am into classical singers but I thought for this type of show she did well and in fact better than most contestants 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

First what...??.

This was a long time ago, don't think they had introduced the golden buzzer back then?

You would be very wrong.

I’m sure Dolly put those royalties to good use.

Dolly Parton wrote and sang this song first. Dolly is the bomb!

This song DID NOT NEED WHITNEY TO BE A HIT

Whitney Houston wouldn’t have been able to do that song if it wasn’t for Dolly

WOW

And where was the big ending? That is the hallmark of the song.
