She chose to shoot high.

There have been numerous contestants on shows like The Voice and the Got Talent series who have taken on Whitney Houstonโ€™s rendition of โ€œI Will Always Love You.โ€ From kids to adults, you gotta give credit to those who have been able to rock the classic, because itโ€™s not an easy song to perform by any means.

The woman in the video below also decided to audition with The Bodyguard tune. However, adding in the fact that it was different than her primary language seems it would be more of a difficult feat.

But could she sing the epic high notes?

โ€œI Will Always Love Youโ€ is a country ballad written by Dolly Parton in 1973. While she too had great success with the song, it was Whitney Houstonโ€™s 1992 pop-version that exploded on the music scene.

The contestant had everyone on pins and needles as she neared the first chorus of the song, only to skip over it. But then her voice gained power as she got closer to the most intense part of โ€œI Will Always Love You.โ€

While we donโ€™t know exactly what was said to her afterwards, it seems like sheโ€™s given praises and moved to the next round of the show.
