"I'll Always Love You" is a song by American singer-songwriter Michael Johnson, released in 1979 as the second single from his fifth album, Dialogue. Despite failing to chart in the Hot 100, the song became a big hit in the Philippines, giving Johnson his only gold record, where it has been covered by several local artists such as Vina Morales, Regine Velasquez, Nina, Bea Alonzo and Martin Nievera.

The music video for "I'll Always Love You" was directed by Jessel Monteverde. The video had a heavy use of visual special effects, becoming Nina's second music video to be made mostly of animations (the other being "Loving You"). Most of the scenes show animated backgrounds and setting.
The video starts with pictures wherein a photo of Nina walking on the street is slowly zoomed, as the image inside the picture starts moving. She suddenly stopped and leaned on a wall. A scene where she is singing to the song, while a colorful background is moving behind her, suddenly appears. She is then shown walking on the streets of San Francisco, California, where other people stroll as well (but in a fast-forward motion). The part where she is seen walking fades, and scenes from the movie suddenly appears. She is then shown singing to the song, while being inserted into the actual scenes of the film.[3]
