The original IWALY is exactly that : perfect. It is so damned sugary and sweet - only Dolly could get away with it - simply because she doesn't have a phony bone in her body (not counting the surgeries...
).
That song literally just breaks my heart. When she closed her shortlived variety show with it every episode, I welled up every single time ! So silly.
Of course the Whitney bastardization is an atorcity to me. I challenge anyone to find a shred of the original melody in her car alarm vocal gymanstics. But, the 3 million Dolly made from it probably helped the last three bluegrass albums happen. So, all is well that ends well.
