Amazing Cover: "I Will Always Love You" (Jennifer Hudson)


Though Jordin Sparks offered a touching rendition of "I Will Always Love You" during last night's 2012 Billboard Music Awards, back in 2010, Jennifer Hudson honored Whitney Houston at the BET Honors ceremony by performing Houston's most icon song. Jennifer stayed true to the Houston version from The Bodyguard, but also added her own vocal twists to the song to make it her own. Though Whitney Houston owned the song during her Bodyguard days, I truly believe that no one other then Houston and Hudson should ever take on this arrangement of the song. While Jordin offering a heartfelt performance, Jennifer offered up the closest thing we will ever come to getting a Houston performance of "I Will Always Love You." Watch the powerful performance below as we all continue to honor the legacy of Whitney Houston.
