But in the court of public opinion, Rimes's version outsold Yearwood's by millions. AND, hold the present day record of being in Billboard 100, 69 weeks.

Yearwood and Rimes were both up for the Grammy for this song. Trisha won it. I think that says it all.

Whitney Houston. "I Will Always Love You," written by Dolly Parton. But the world knows whose version? Dolly who?

Your comment on the most part makes a lot of sense. But there is an exception to this rule about age=more experience=better to interpret the meaning of this song. The exception is LeAnn Rimes. Not only does she rip the song with her vocals, she delivers the song lyrically word for word, dESPITE her age. Thirty million people can't be wrong(Rimes version outsold Yearwood's version by that many people.)

pear,The song was written for LeAnn Rimes by Diane Warren for the movie CON AIR. It was too pop for the movie producers, who wanted a more country sound. LeAnn refused to re-record the song, so the produced pegged Trisha Yearwood to sing it. They liked her version better, so that's why her version is in the movie.
