Four decades after Dolly Parton denied Elvis Presley the rights to “I Will Always Love You,” 13-year-old Austrian singer Laura Kamhuber captivated audiences on The Voice Kids with her stunning rendition of the song. Originally released by Parton in 1974 and made famous by Whitney Houston in 1992, Kamhuber’s performance left the judges momentarily speechless, with pop star Tim Bendzko calling it “the forbidden song” due to its challenging vocal range. Her audition has since amassed 226 million views on YouTube, showcasing the enduring power of this classic ballad.
