Dolly Parton has died.
I really didn’t want anyone bumping Neil Sedaka out of the #1 list of “top” ten music losses for the year. Sorry, Neil, you’re down to #2 now.
There are no words. The woman was an amazing talent in every way imaginable. She sang, she played a dozen different instruments, and she acted.

There’s a legacy of music, laughter, and generosity that this incredible lady leaves us.
Dolly Rebecca Parton was 80.
My favorite Dolly song, “Coat of Many Colors”:

Yes it is, in every way imaginable. She was such a bright shining light in music and in life. How many other people would enter a Dolly Parton look-alike drag contest and LOSE.

I think many feel that song is their favorite of her song
Mine is "I Will Always Love You". She has so many. What a gal!
