Lin sings the Dolly Parton classic, I Will Always Love You, on a Taiwanese TV talent show competition. (Parton wrote and first recorded the song, which Whitney Houston later recorded.) When I watched this video on April 16th, 2010 at 6:24 am it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I seem to be in a love song mood lately.
Here is another favourite. Whitney Houston&#8217;s rendition of &#8220;I Will Always Love You&#8221;.
What really surprised me is that the original is by another favourite of mine &#8211; Dolly Parton. I loved Dolly and crew in the movie &#8220;9 to 5&#8243;. Just used that song on a [...]]]></description>

Tonight I was reminded of one of my favourite motivational songs, Hero, written and performed by Mariah Carey in 1993, when Mariah was 23 years old. I am always very impressed when I learn that [...]]]></description>
