Dolly Parton discussion

Post by my chicken is infected »

First off, LOVE this woman. :D So many timeless songs.

Also, just to let any fans here know, the new Collector's Edition of her FABULOUS newest album, Backwoods Barbie, is now available exclusively at Cracker Barrel stores for $12.

In addition, the store is selling an exclusive photo album for $25, and each store got two limited edition rocking chairs, painted pink with her signature at the top. Those are $200 each.

You can also order the CD at http://www.crackerbarrel.com if you don't wish to drive all the way to the store or you don't have one nearby.

Now that I've sufficiently plugged the album, let's discuss our favorite Dolly songs and/or albums. I'm pretty sure my favorite Dolly song is "Jolene," with honorable mention to "Two Doors Down," "Coat Of Many Colors," "I Will Always Love You," and an underrated gem from her underrated pop album Rainbow, "Dump The Dude."

I haven't heard everything by Dolly. As of yet, I've only listened to her greatest hits. However, I have her newest CD and a 3-in-1 pack of some of her old CDs so I can try to catch up just a little bit. Haven't listened to them yet, because I've been distracted by Kelly Clarkson. Still, I really loved her first single "Jesus and Gravity," which made me want to get the new CD.

Anyway, my number one favorite by her is "9 to 5." I can listen to that song over and over and over. "Islands in the Stream" and "Coat of Many Colors" are other good ones. Anyway, I think she's the perfect package--good song-writer, nice voice and great personality.

Christina Aguilera ~ "Cruz"

I have four Dolly Parton albums so I guess you could call me a very casual fan. I'm especially a fan of her gospel / Christian music. Some of my favorites include:

"9 to 5"
"Jolene"
"Coat of Many Colors"
"I Will Always Love You"
"The House of the Rising Sun"
"Hard Candy Christmas"
"Silver Threads and Golden Needles"
"Hello God"
"Welcome Home"
"Halos and Horns"
"Go to Hell"
"Travelin' Thru"
"Jesus and Gravity"
All the songs from Home for Christmas

I also really like Dolly's Christmas movies: A Smoky Mountain Christmas and Unlikely Angel.
