La historia cuenta que Dolly Parton conducía por Brentwood, Nashville, de regreso de su oficina, cuando una voz a capella surgió en la radio. Al principio solo le sonó familiar: “If I should stay…”. Luego llegó el coro. Tuvo que detenerse al costado de la carretera, cerca de donde hoy está un Walgreens, porque el corazón le latía tan fuerte que temió estrellarse.

Era 1992, Whitney Houston acababa de convertir su pequeña canción de despedida en un himno mundial.

La historia había comenzado casi veinte años antes.

En 1973, Dolly Parton decidió separarse profesionalmente de Porter Wagoner, el hombre que la había llevado a la televisión nacional y le había abierto las puertas de Nashville. No fue un corte limpio ni un gesto de ingratitud. Fue una necesidad de crecer.

Para decirle adiós, escribió “I Will Always Love You”. Entró a su oficina, se sentó con la guitarra y se la cantó. Wagoner lloró. “Es la mejor canción que has escrito”, le dijo. “Puedes irte… siempre que yo la produzca”.

La grabó en 1974 y alcanzó el número uno en las listas country.

No era una balada de amor romántico, sino una carta de gratitud y liberación: “Te querré siempre, pero tengo que seguir mi camino”.

Poco después llegó una tentación casi imposible de rechazar. Elvis Presley quería grabarla. Dolly estaba eufórica.

Contó a todos que el Rey interpretaría su canción. La noche antes de la sesión, el coronel Tom Parker telefoneó: la condición era entregar la mitad de los derechos de autor. Dolly se negó. Lloró toda la noche.

“Mis canciones son como mis hijos”, explicaría después. “Espero que me mantengan cuando sea vieja”. Prefería conservar el copyright completo, aunque eso significara renunciar al sueño de oír a Elvis cantarla.

Aquella decisión, tomada con el corazón roto, cambió el rumbo de su vida.

En 1992, Kevin Costner y su secretaria insistieron en usar la canción para The Bodyguard. Había otra opción preparada, pero al último momento la pidieron. Dolly envió la cinta y no volvió a saber nada… hasta aquella tarde en el auto.

Whitney Houston, con la producción de David Foster, la transformó: el inicio a capella, la potencia vocal, el escalofrío que recorre el mundo.

Catorce semanas en el número uno del Billboard Hot 100. La banda sonora se convirtió en una de las más vendidas de la historia.

La versión de Whitney generó para Dolly alrededor de diez millones de dólares en regalías solo en la década de los noventa.

Dolly no guardó el dinero en silencio. Compró un complejo de oficinas, un strip mall, en un barrio históricamente afroamericano de Nashville, lejos del glamour de la Avenida 16.

“Pensé: este es el lugar perfecto, considerando que era Whitney. Voy a estar aquí con su gente, que también es mi gente”. Lo llamó “la casa que Whitney construyó”.

“Tomó mi pequeña canción y la convirtió en algo enorme”, diría Dolly más de una vez, con la voz quebrada de emoción.

Whitney le había devuelto la canción transformada, más grande y más universal.

Dolly escribió la despedida. Whitney la hizo volar. Entre las dos tejieron un puente improbable entre el country de las montañas de Tennessee y el soul que llega al alma.

Una canción nacida de la necesidad de partir se convirtió en el adiós que el mundo nunca pudo olvidar.

Hoy, cuando suenan aquellas notas a capella, todavía se escucha el eco de dos voces que se encontraron a través del tiempo y con seguridad, en la eternidad, y a la vez, se quedaron con nosotros para siempre.

Siempre recordaré esta escena de Dolly Parton en Miss Simpatía 2

[Ian Somerhalder @iansomerhalder]

17 years. Hard to believe.

For nearly two decades, so many of you have been on this journey with me. You’ve watched, supported, traveled across the world to meet me, shared your stories with me and continued to show up year after year. I’ve never taken that for granted.

So I wanted to create something truly special for you. You’ve ask me for years. So here it is. 🙏

Introducing the only official limited-edition Daylight Ring collectible — created for you guys as something you can wear, keep, and hopefully have for years to come.

And because I wanted this to truly be something from me to you, I’ll be personally hand-signing every collector box ordered. Every single one.

This collection is only available for three weeks, and once it closes, it’s gone. Limited quantities available.

Get yours now at the link in my bio or at https://t.co/tv8H7aITWU

To everyone who has been with me from the beginning — and everyone who joined somewhere along the way — thank you. This one's for you.

With love and gratitude,
Ian

The silver lining of not getting the BUFFY revival is that we still get the licensing push that was clearly meant to coincide with its release.

A reminder that Dolly Parton is the reason we have the show Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

She hated the movie but believed the show could be amazing so she let them film on her sound studio. By season 2, it was a HIT and became one of the most iconic shows in HISTORY.

As a thank you, Buffy Summers and Dolly Parton share the same birthday.

January 19th.

Mariah Carey talks about how the industry has changed since she started—back when she sold millions of CDs—compared to the streaming era, which she considers a scam

“The music business has changed so much since, I mean, certainly since I started. So when I first started out, I was like, “Oh my gosh, now they’re not, I can’t have vinyl, I can’t have a regular album, it has to be a CD.” You know, it was this whole thing. I was my whole life. I waited to have that. And then it was, now we’re doing this. Then the next thing you know, we’re doing something else. Now, basically, it’s a stream which you make one sixteenth of a penny on. It’s a whole different thing. And it’s another scam. I’m sorry, industry people, but it’s a scam. It’s a complete and total scam because there’s no way you can go from... Who is actually making that money? I’m curious to know. That used to go... First, they went from all the big physical things that were sold, whether they were... I mean, they still sell vinyl now. It’s big again. But I’m just saying, you know, all those other things that... Whether it was CDs or, you know, DVDs or whatever. Now... It’s a whole different thing because pretty much anybody can get on YouTube, can be heard, can be noticed, can be discovered, which is great. But what does discovery mean? You’re already on YouTube. You already sang your song. There’s your moment. You have to carry it from there. So how do you carry it from there?”

We are so spoiled. Mariah doesn’t have to give us writing sessions, lives, anniversary celebrations, or any of these special moments… but she does. Let’s appreciate her and celebrate everything she continues to share with us. She’s truly one of one. ❤️🦋

[Jim Verdi @jjverdi]

I don’t know who put this together but it’s one of the most amazing compilations put together. Actually perfect.

[Liron @LironD]

@VisionofFrankie @MariahFactCheck @MariahCarey Unfortunately Mariah has zero claims or pull over the (re)release of the movie. It’s completely up to the entities that own it / have distribution rights for it.
