Houston's song, released in 1992, was a moving cover of a Dolly Parton track off her 1974 record Jolene. The original Parton song was a massive country hit, holding the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart two separate times, once in 1974 and again in 1982. In 1992, Houston reintroduced the song to the charts, taking the top spot in late November and holding it for 14 consecutive weeks—at the time marking it the longest-running No. 1 hot in Billboard Hot 100 history.
Houston's "I Will Always love You" was originally recorded for the 1992 film The Bodyguard. The track was featured on Houston's first soundtrack album, The Bodyguard: Official Soundtrack Album. The film also marked Houston's acting debut, where she starred as Rachel Marron.
