Lucie Jones & The Full Tone Orchestra - "I will always love you" by Whitney Houston

Filmed at Lucie Jones and The Full Tone Orchestra's Final tour date in Cardiff on May 5th 2023.

Lucie Jones is one of the best stars of stage the UK has. She has a voice like silk. I went to see her last show in wicked, and waitress too. She has so much more control over her voice than i could ever dream.

THIS IS THE SONG THAT STARTED IT ALL IN X-FACTOR 2009.

[@robfeuer7842]

I always remember her audition on the X Factor singing this

[@peggyhooton731]

She is soooo good.

[@philippreston6315]

Ok shivers absolutely amazing Lucy

[@TheKonga88]

She looks and sounds amazing 😍🥳🥳🥳🥳💃🏼

[@Jameswilliamson405]

❤❤❤❤

[@petercarty6379]

absolutely brilliant

[@patpowers1718]

Remember this isn’t “by” Whitney Houston because it was written by Dolly Parton. But thus rendition is outstanding! Obviously Whitney set the standard by far! 😊

[@paulefstathiou1819]

Beautiful Lady with a beautiful ❤️ Voice !

[@pede8983]

Perfect ❤

[@donaldholderdoc2910]

I still don't think Lucie gets the respect among X-Factor success stories or lists. If you look at her career, look at the top shows from London to Broadway and more. She definitely has to be in the top 3 I believe absolutely top 5. You look back and there are only a couple of people who I can even begin to compare with Lucies fabulous gift. Leona, Janes Arthur and Sam Bailey all have pretty good successful time but all 3 are also winners of X-F. Lucie has matched or surpassed everyone. 😊

Adoro 😊

[@RobertSmith-rj9md]

Whitney would be proud of you xx

[@pfortt]

These videos are amazing thank you!

[@NickButtie]

No worries at all! I drove 4 hours to see her but I knew not everyone could make it to Cardiff so had to share them!

[@pfortt]

@@NickButtie amazing! Have we you got more to put on?

[@NickButtie]

Unfortunately the 6 I have put up are the only ones I managed to get

[@pfortt]

@@NickButtie ok no worries they are amazing! I went to Reading but we weren’t allowed to film anything as it was the venue policy 😔

[@NickButtie]

Oh no way, at Cardiff they said go for it just don't use flash

[@daniello9155]

Seriously it just does not get any better than this, even Whitney.

[@albertshumate7688]

Dolly Parton wrote the song and set the benchmark.

[@reykema]

WOW you didnt try to Whitney Houston you perfected your own version GREAT JOB

[@57whizzer]

Girl done got Big!

[@emmiexcheng]

thank you for those videos!! it’s so lush xx I was wondering do you know what were the papers that the audience was holding up when they gave her a standing ovation??

[@NickButtie]

I believe that before every performance Lucie did a ticketed meet & greet and gave each person a piece of paper that said "We will always love you

[@Lou99xo]

@@NickButtie I was there too and it was actually just another audience member handing them out at the interval!!! Nothing to do with Lucie herself I don't think :)

[@NickButtie]

Awe really? I love the dedication! Thank you for letting me know

[@onenord7619]

Wow!!! That white girl can sing!!!! And I say that with alot of respect!!!!

[@tweakingonwindows6132]

What's Ironic, is when she went up the 1st time and tells Simon she is singing Whitney Houston's, I will always love you. Which is ignorant to the fact, the Original Artist of that song was written and sung by Dolly Parton, Whitney just only sings it as a cover song.

[@johndobbs1925]

Whitney made it a hit.

[@michaelwilkinson2928]

It' was written and first performed by Dolly Parton, not Whitney Houston!

[@daytonafuntim]

Dolly wrote it, but Lucie is singing this in the ballad style of Whitney, not Dolly's country version.

[@GeorgePaki]

Yes true that and dollys version is still one of the best

[@carolharkness5023]

ls this the Lucie Jones that was on BGT ?

[@davidcteviotdale4000]

No she was on The X Factor in 2009.

[@paulsutton5896]

I was wondering this myself. Greatly changed appearance. And not for the better.

[@TheKonga88]

​@@paulsutton5896Are you serious? She looks amazing 🥳🥱🙄

[@albertshumate7688]

Whitney Houston did not write the song. Dolly Parton wrote it.

[@NickButtie]

It only says by Whitney because she's singing her ballad version.

[@albertshumate7688]

@@NickButtie It's still Dolly's song no matter how you slice it or dice it. Dolly turned down Elvis on the song because he wanted to own it.

[@onenord7619]

She is no whitney, but who is?? And she is Damn good!!!!

[@fryque]

NO NO NO - I Will Always Love You is NOT by Whitney Houston. Whitney Houston did sing it but I Will Always Love You is by Dolly Parton. Written and recorded by Dolly Parton in 1973.

[@NickButtie]

Correct Dolly is the original artist but Lucie is singing Whitney's ballad version not Dolly's country version.

[@moonstar7775]

WoW! She changed so much since first auditioning 13 years ago. She's gained a lot of weight. IMO, no one can sing like WH no matter how they try.

[@jenifergaston7226]

she is actually pregnant in this video.

[@TheKonga88]

She is merely performing her own version of a Dolly Parton song, just the same as Houston did 🤡🥱🙄
