I Will Always Love You
71Worth an evening.
Arista, under Sony. She is leaving. She will not pretend the love was nothing.
The review
Arista released this version. Sony holds Arista. Dolly Parton wrote a kinder, smaller song. Houston made it a room-sized vow. The vow is not 'I will stay.' It is 'I will not rewrite the love into contempt so I can leave more easily.'
That is rare. Use it when an ending is true and the temptation is to burn the years in order to walk.
Journal
Keep I Will Always Love You in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 71. Yours can differ.
The glance
Republic is the thin one.
Does anyone owe a neighbor, a law, or a town — or is every person out for themselves?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Amazing Grace
83 instead of 71
Amazing Grace is still a music song, and it scores 83 instead of 71. What you gain is piety: The doctrine is the lyric.
The eight
- 9Industry
The voice is a life's work, spent on one farewell.
- 7Household
A bond, honored at the moment it cannot continue as it was.
- 6Piety
A blessing, said over someone she is letting go.
- 8Courage
Leaving without hatred takes more nerve than staying in a tangle.
- 4Republic
Two people. The public is just listening.
- 7Temperance
No revenge. The feeling is large and it is kept in bounds.
- 8Truth
She says both things: I love you, and I am going.
- 8Stewardship
A way to end that a house can survive.
