If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way
And I
Will always love you
I will always love you
You
My darling, you
Mm, mm
Bittersweet memories
That is all I'm taking with me
So goodbye, please, don't cry
We both know I'm not what you, you need
And I
Will always love you
I will always love you
You
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of
And I wish to you joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish you love
And I
Will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you, I
I will always love you, you
I'll always love you

i promise you if Rock/Metal singers start singing pop the pop guys will be in trouble. These guys's vocal range and power is unmatched!! Well done man, this is AMAZING!!

[@remco416]

I love this song and have done some attempts to cover it myself (not as good as this one obviously). But what I missed in this cover is 1. the build-up at beginning, this cover started out too big imo. 2. Those high notes in the end were too raw for me. Based on the rest of the song, Id guess that this man can hit those notes with his head voice.

[@bowed305]

@@remco416 I guess that's the difference between a pop version, country version, and rock version. In most rock songs, those dynamics are far more subtle.

The immense talent it takes to not just hit those notes, but to be able to hold them evenly and then instantly switch to another without taking a breath is phenomenal! I’ve seen many attempts at covering this song. And I’ve seen almost all of them fail. But, Erik is definitely the #2 best person to sing this song,only passed by the Queen Whitney herself!! As a hard rock/metal head myself I’ve always appreciated (and envied if I’m being honest lol) the incredible talent the singers of these bands have! As Erik just showed us, they easily could switch genres and take over if they wanted to! Look at Ronnie Radke as another example of this from Falling in Reverse. Love him or hate him you have to be deaf to deny the sheer talent that man has! To go from rock, to rapping, to freaking opera is insane!! Much Respect Erik for taking on this song and absolutely killing it!! 🤘

@@generalzod2479 She wrote it for Port Wagoner when she wanted to continue her career as a solo artist without him (they performed and recorded together a lot before that). How do you know she’s cheated on her husband?

Dolly's version and this are tied for #1 in my book!

[@scaryclarey654]

Such a beautiful, powerful version of this song. New fan!

[@user-kl8gm4pw4b]

How am I just discovering him now?!! This version is delicate and raucous and loud and not overdone as Whitney’s. Dolly’s is pure and true. This is over the edge and hold me tight.
