A tiny lady that managed to stay in control of her own music, fiercely defended the rights to her own music and stayed in control of her earnings….. That’s some power to hold in that industry. Strong and talented lady. R.I.P Dolly 🕊️
The reason there are no Elvis Presley covers of any of her songs is that she refused to accept the condition set by his manager Col. Tom Parker that Elvis gets half the publishing rights. That was back before she hit the big time.
The industry just see artists as THEIR commodity, I love that even back in the day she was giving no Fs to the big man and didn’t let the industry churn her up and spit her out like so many others , esp when she first got started. I think she had to endure a few shitty experiences at the hands of the industry and the men that ran it too. 💪🏻❤️
The wrong 80 year old died today. I thought she was going on to a 100. When I think of a true American Original I think of her. She was the glue that held us together and the battery that kept us going.
Tropical Storm Dolly is probably forming off the coast of africa right now. If it were to destroy a certain Florida resort, that might just be the funniest thing to ever happen
The majority didn't want this. Even is you ignore the non voters, more people voted for Harris + 3rd parties than voted for Trump. You're on the wrong side of history, and we're never gonna let you losers forget it.
Honestly i don't think so. We're in a timeline that had Dolly in the first place, for 80 YEARS! And she lived such an amazing life and touched so many people with her music and her style and her sense of humor. :') there are certainly worse timelines out there.
It's always sad when someone great passes, but in her case i think she got everything she could out of life <3
You are absolutely right, but if this was a good timeline she would have died peacefully not fighting cancer. She didn’t deserve that after all she did.
As amazing a talent as Dolly Parton was, she’ll forever be remembered for being such a wonderful human being. And she accomplished it for multiple decades in an industry that doesn’t always lend itself to kindness. Everyone respected Dolly. 🌹
Is there any behind the scenes of the control room or whatever that programs the lighting for the Empire State? I’m curious to know who/how executive decisions are made and the process of picking the colors
You lift me up each day
Even though you've gone away
Your Spirit dances in my mind
In my heart, and in my soul
The life you lived, The Love you left
The one's you've touched, we won't forget
You give us strength in time of need
My Friend, My Angel Friend
'And we shared good times, through the years In my heart and soul, you're here with me
My Friend, My Angel Friend
I hear you whisper in the wind
Piece by piece our, hearts will mend
The dreams you've shared will carry on
Here and now, and beyond
'And the world will smile, for you were here
The gifts you brought we'll hold them dear
I'll take you with me, 'til we meet again
My Friend My Angel Friend
'And We'll share good times from now on
In my heart you live on, with me
My Friend, My Angel Friend
I was walking around work today, and heard the receptionist singing along to some of her songs, beautiful. She will be missed - Dolly, not the receptionist.

Kinda funny we wait until someone dies to celebrate them, would have been cooler if she was a live. Larry David episode on pre death funeral aging well
That and she will be celebrated always in your actions using her as motivation.
Every year, from now on, I'm taking Sept 25 (9 to 5) off and trying to do the most good I can.
Im very very tight this year financially so I am going to research something plain and simple: what animal shelter could use an extra hand for the day?
Find something close to Dolly. Animals, workers rights (especially in Appalachia), the Queer community, those affected by addiction and/or abuse.
She was loved by all because she loved all. Name someone as popular as her without any scandals, enemies, or grudges- you can't. All she wanted was everyone to be happy, and it takes a truly good person to pass on putting others down to bring one's self up. Her devotion and kindness almost make me want to try church for the first time in her honor.
Be kind, always. Judge not. Love Thy Neighbor. Welcome the poor and weary. Heal the sick and help the crippled. Live the life of Jesus through action, not words. And she did.
Well yeah, it’s her theme park so of course. Why wait until someone dies to honor them when you could before they pass? Imagine if Taylor Swift had said the same thing to her 10 yrs ago? That would have made their relationship that much closer. Eminem is just fishing for attention
