Have you heard Dolly's original I Will Always Love You ? And did you know that Elvis Presley wanted it but back in the day Elvis Presley was getting 50% of any song He covered regardless of who wrote it and did it first? Dolly's Daddy might have been illiterate, but he knew business, and he taught her his business sense. She kept it and she let Whitney borrow it, but she kept control of it, and the movie grossed her a heck of a lot for that song.

The coat was a prophecy. That Joseph would wear many coats before he came into God's promise for him.

[@mindyjuiliano222]

But Joseph told them, what you intended for evil God intended for good. He was able to save his family and thousands of others during a famine.

[@scottdonohue3379]

Joseph was sold into slavery, but he also ended up as a very wealthy man and the Pharaoh’s right hand man. As Dolly said at the beginning of the video, this song is a true story from her life. She came from a level of poverty that few people today could begin to comprehend.

I think you should look up the rest of Joseph’s story. He was sold as a slave but he was able to read peoples dreams and see things that were going to potentially happen in the future. He gained the pharaohs trust and became a wealthy man.

Yes, Dolly said. Her mama said “ perhaps “this coat will bring “you” “good luck and happiness” Britches, “ pants” !!!

[@lynnschook6124]

I was gonna say the same thing but the real story of Joseph is that he was a type and shadow of Christ. He is the object of his father’s special love, he had promises of divine exaltation, mocked by his family, sold for pieces of silver, delivered up to the Gentiles, falsely accused, his power was acknowledged by those in authority, he saves his rebellious brothers from death when they realize who he is, he is exalted after and through humiliation, he embraces God’s purpose even though it brings him intense physical harm, he is the instrument God uses at the hands of the Gentiles to bless his people, he welcomes Gentiles to be part of his family. He gives hungry people bread. People must bow their knee before him. Sorry, probably a reply that is more than you bargained for but it’s truly amazing how we can find these types and shadows of Christ in the Old Testament and there are so many more. 😊

[@chlupl]

Yeah, Joseph certainly did come out ahead after his tribulations.

[@lillianbuckingham4529]

....it was because young Joseph had dreams that they would bow down to him that they hated him. His brothers thought once he was powerful and rich that he would retaliate, but he forgave them, saved them from famine, and was happy to see them. The end of the story is the best part and you left it out 🙂

[@davidjones8299]

Years ago when I was stationed at Willow Grove, a crew chief said to me, "There's the richest man in AFRC." That's Air Force Reserve Command. I said, oh hell no. You outrank me! You make more than I do. He said, "Jonsey, I'm not talking about money. You are always smiling. That happiness you have is what makes you richer than all the rest of us." An amazing wife, a great son, and faith in God put that smile on my face.

If you follow the story to completion, Joseph was able to save his entire family from famine, from what his brothers did. He considered what they did a blessing. It taught him to be humbled and how to forgive. It taught him a haughty nature is man's downfall. So to Joseph it was lucky, from his point of view.

[@ginnywithag5046]

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​@@Miss_Camel I favorably second that! Yes, he suffered, but he and his entire family ultimately gained from it all. One might wonder as to The Love of God, of how great Dolly's Mother's heart and wisdom was in her thinking of Joseph while she worked in piecing together scraps in fashioning them into a coat. I just want to draw out some parallels of two individuals, of two stories, and of two "Coats of Many Colors" and lastly of the two outcomes of both. We could easily say, with her Mother's great love and the need of warmth in covering her Daughter from winter's coming cold, now consider how she shared this story of Joseph and of his coat while she hand sewed it together! How little Dolly was happy in knowing Momma's making her this coat and in her finally getting to wear it. Those school children were much like the many jealous brothers. They weren't necessarily jealous of her coat, but they tried hard in their taking from her! They wanted to strip her of her joy and by making her feel bad about her life!!! My Mother was from Tennessee, too, only from another part of the state. Dolly would've had older siblings of my Mom's age. Later my Mom became friends with a girl who was from there and she went to school with Dolly. This is how I'm knowing of their age differences. In those decades and going more back in time, the vast majority of the population there, state-wide struggled. Nearly everyone was poor, including my kinfolks! Now think as to how many hold on to dreams of going to Nashville and making it big! Dolly was one of millions to make it! If she never had more success, than her "Porter Wagoner" years, she made it! I know of two other families from Dolly's neck of the woods! Some do leave, a huge amount stay with having generations in the Smokies and Knoxville surrounding areas! So think of all the decades of Dolly's successfulness in her career. I doubt, if anyone can hold a candle to Dolly's notoriety of the area, with only the high regards to only one. That being Sergeant York! Please know, I am not making out Dolly to being a biblical person here! I will say, the life events of these two, that there's much in comparison of their disregard, of their climb to achieving lasting success and of how they brought about the greatest of change in the lives of their families, plus in the lifes of a good many, many others!!! How vastly different do you, can you imagine the nieces and nephews of Joseph's life's were altered? He saved his family from famine, his people from starvation!!! I feel that he would have shared greatly his riches with all of his extended family. Dolly has helped her family, has funded the area after disasters there, she started things up in her area, helped in reading books, education, and funding much! Just go and read for yourself. I can easily say with assurance, many of those un-named children who was making fun of her and her coat in this song, those same ones, that their Grandchildren and many other of their relatives, perhaps they themselves have all, all those still living in that area have reaped from the depths of Dolly's pockets, 💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵 💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵 and from her heart strings! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

@@ginnywithag5046 love your comment. Awesome. How about the parallels between Joseph and Jesus? Joseph is a type and shadow of Christ, one of many we can find in the Old Testament that point to the coming Messiah. Their stories are so similar. He is the object of his father’s special love. He had promises of divine exaltation. He was mocked by his family. He was sold for pieces of silver. He was stripped of his robe. He was delivered up to the Gentiles. He was falsely accused. He was faithful amid temptation. He was thrown into prison. He stood before rulers. His power was acknowledged by those in authority. He saves his rebellious brothers from death when they realize who he is. He is exalted after and through humiliation. He embraces God’s purpose even though it brings him intense physical harm. He is the instrument God uses at the hands of the Gentiles to bless his people. He welcomes Gentiles to be part of his family. He gives hungry people bread. People must bow their knee before him.

Dolly came from the hills, way back! Where they washed their clothes on rocks. It wasn't just meeting bills. They had outhouse, the whole 9 yrs! I remember her talking about a bunch of her, and all her brothers & sisters had to wash up out of the same wash bowl of water. Like she said, patches on her britches (southern for pants) and holes in both her shoes. They all worked very hard, to make their clothes & grow their food. The dad worked but it couldn't take care of them. What we consider poverty, would have been rich to them!! I ❤️ Dolly!! Me and Little Andy is another great one!!

[@Wyndigayle]

Me and Little Andy is my absolute favorite song by her. The first time I heard it was when my mom gave me a Dolly Parton album (vinyl) for Christmas, probably 1978/9. I was 10 or 11 years old and cried when I heard that song.

There was nothing her mother had to clothe her in but the rags- but the domestic artist her mother was, she was able to make her a coat with great love.

[@wnsafford1854]

Just so there's no misunderstanding, the coat at Dollywood is not the original. Neither Dolly nor her mother knew for certain what happened to that. They assumed it was passed down, till it wore out or was taken apart & repurposed. After the success of the song, Dolly's mother made a "near duplicate", from her memory & the school pic Dolly had taken in it (which only showed the front, upper area of the coat). The duplicate is the one in the museum at Dollywood, along with a fancier version from the movie.

[@kathyjones3940]

When my sister and I were young we grew up in upper class , beautiful new home, and never lacked for anything but I remember mom making us dresses, etc and they meant the world to us! When your mom takes that time to do those kinds of things they sure are the most special!! ❤

[@blippacg]

Great information on Joseph's experience with the coat. I don't hear Dolly saying Joseph's coat brought him luck but maybe that was her intent. Never heard a detailed accounting of the story from Dolly. I could see a mother relating a biblical story about a quilted coat to make it more important to the child.

[@hectorsmommy1717]

After being sold into slavery Joseph rose up to become the right hand of the Pharaoh. The coat brought him hardship at first but fabulous wealth and power later.

[@hol7824]

Joseph's coat actually did serve him well. He eventually became the leader of Egypt, after being sold to them.

[@justjessi5667]

Dude, sir, I have tears. 😂 Anyway, this song is amazing, like many of Dolly's. I'm Appalachian, but I was born in Indianapolis. My grandparents raised me. They were from Hazarrd/Bonnyman Kentucky. My Granny and Papa were amazing. They're gone. My Papa died 5/3/22. He was a coalminer in Perry and Johnson County KY. I've always loved this song because it was my grandmother and mother's reality... They both did things like this for me. Papa worked the mines until he moved everyone to Indy... And I'm so very proud of the place I come from, but I see the opportunity he handed us by working those mines and getting us out of the holler. 😭 So many aren't proud... Appalachians are strong, resilient, creative... We can be anything, but we will be joyous.

But the mention of the coat inspired her mom to create one for her. That’s what she meant. Watch the fantastic television film that was made about her childhood. “ Coat of Many Colors”. She grew up in a two room cabin in Tennessee with 11 siblings- so yeah- “ britches” is a word mountain folk use.

I wasn't born here but I absolutely love Dolly, she's deeply loved here more than anywhere else and it's beautiful to see people all around get to know her through her music. There's no shortage of music legends here but none of them remind me of this place more than Dolly, I'd feel absolutely homesick wherever I'm at in the world listening to her. That's why it's important to listen to the music of the places you travel to, there's music legends all around the world and few things are as great of an ice breaker when meeting locals. You get such a beautiful look into their culture and than associate the music with their home. It's like a musical postcard.

(I was raised by my great aunt; and she always sewed my clothes back in the 60's and we enjoyed the Porter Wagoner Show on our black n white tv.)

I've always loved this song, because I can relate to it. My family wasn't rich, we often pinched pennies, but we never went to bed hungry, and we always got what we needed to get by, and if needed we'd improvise something to work. We've always been quite resourceful that way, and it made us appreciate what we have and never take it for granted. On top of that, I have a cat that is a long hair calico (black, white, and orange). I named her Dolly because of this song. She's my "Coat of Many Colors" that her momma made for me. She's incredibly smart, as I'll tell her to look after my mother and my toddler nephews, and she'd do it! In fact, when the nephews are fussing, she'll pat my mom on the shoulder when my mom is asleep just to wake her so she can tend to the boys.

It’s Dolly… period.

She sings a wonderful song called Joshua. Love it.

When I listen to this ( and I do often ) I remember my childhood. We were somewhat poor, I found out after I became an adult, and we got one new pair of shoes before school started. Daddy took each of the six of us, two at a time and when we tried them on he pressed the toe space to make sure there was growing room. You were in trouble if they didn't last long enough. Memories and precious times

[@jakeand9020]

Had to take off the nice school clothes and shoes as soon as you get home. Playing outside with whatever worn out clothes you could still, mostly, fit into, no socks or shoes, so those shoes would last longer. Up here in the north we each got a new snow sled every year for Christmas, because we used last year's to haul the wood into the house. Being the youngest I rarely got new shoes, I got my older brother's old ones instead.

Joseph’s story didn’t end with him being sold into slavery.

[@bendailey6070]

Exactly. Joseph was given power over all of Egypt, with only Pharaoh out ranking him. Because of this position, Joseph was able to save his father's family including his brothers, that he forgave.

[@countrygirl7402]

Him being sold was only the beginning. 🙂 It's a powerful story.

[@joeyjohnson7795]

Hard Candy Christmas by Dolly is another great one.

[@eileenegger1466]

Dolly is a National treasure.

[@kperry2504]

Ah yes, Joseph went through troubles. BUT what your forgetting, is that God was with Joseph through it all, and Joseph rose to be the right hand man of Pharaoh. God took all that was meant for evil towards Joseph, and turned it to good. :)

[@anaheimdennis]

I really like your reviews, always very thoughtful and insightful.

[@doodlegoddess]

"Britches" - kind of a mountain term for pants - especially here in east TN where dolly grew up :)

[@Lamm139]

Josef had to learn a lot of things, but in the end the coat brought him, his brothers, the pharao and the whole country of egypt luck and happiness. In fact the story of Josef, which began with the coat led to the rescue from starvation of an entire nation and to himself being the right hand of the pharao. In the end Josef forgave his brothers and they lay crying in each other's arms. You should read the story again and think about it.

BEECHES or as we in the south, BRITCHES: When speaking informally, breeches is a term that may refer to any trousers. Breeches is a plural noun, the preferred pronunciation is BRIchiz. The word breeches appears around 1200, it comes from the Old English word brec, the plural of broc, meaning a garment for the legs and trunk.

[@dawnwecker6674]

I don't think Dolly meant Joseph became rich from the coat of any collars but he was so proud of how his father made it special for him and he woar it proudly same as she did with the coat heroth made for her even though they were both treated so terribly about their coats of many colors

[@LindaLittle-m7j]

This is a true story from her own childhood ❤

[@kendallcarstens9194]

The last I knew, the original Coat of many Colors that Dolly sings of; is on display at her museum in Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge, TN. This park is located only a few miles from her childhood home, which is not accessable to tourists.

[@wnsafford1854]

Dolly’s original coat is long gone. Neither she nor her mother knew for certain what happened to it. They assumed it was passed down, till it wore out or was taken apart & repurposed. After the success of the song, Dolly's mother made a "near duplicate", from her memory & the school pic Dolly had taken in it (which only showed the front, upper area of the coat). The duplicate is the one on display in the museum at Dollywood, along with a fancier version from the movie.

[@KennyWhite115]

Love love love this song.

[@ntracefan]

Dolly is a very smart business woman as well as a wonderful singer. I picked her song “ An Eagle When She Flies” to be played at my Granny’s funeral. Such a beautiful song. I would love to see you react to that :)

[@LindaLittle-m7j]

I love your reactions ❤

[@stevewalsh4850]

That coat led him to the glory God had waiting, though it was a tough road to travel, it was a blessing in the end, for all of us

[@MyMaggieNy]

I am so glad you’re doing this song and how you’re talking about Joseph’s coat but I think you forgot that the reason Joseph’s father gave him the coat is because he was the favorite and most cherished son. Then, as the story goes, there were hardships like slavery to the Egyptian pharaoh but also a use for Joseph’s talents that in the end was a blessing for his brothers, father and Israelites as a whole. Thanks for listening to the song.

[@amandagladden6703]

Joseph's story is very positive with a good ending

[@jameslaforce8436]

amen ty ty ty

[@katrinaprescott5911]

I think the parallel with the story of Joseph was because his "coat of many colors" was very valuable - that's why his brothers were envious. So she was saying that the coat made from rags was like Joseph's special coat because they were both multi-colored.

[@bobbycarr408]

Dolly is southern royalty

[@carolgranados4892]

Yes This was me growing up.

[@maryannanderson2213]

II was the coat that made Joseph's brothers so jealous that they wanted to get rid of him causing them to sell him into slavery and it was being sold into slavery that brought him to the attention of the Pharoah which ended with him having lots of "good luck and happiness" so indirectly the coat did bring him "good luck and happiness" even though his brothers' intentions for him were quite different. If not for the coat, he probably would have lived out an obscure and unremarkable life on his father's land helping to tend the sheep. Maybe I'm strange but I think the coat was the catalyst for getting him out of there!

You're the most knowledgeable reactor I've ever watched.

[@donnabost4445]

One of my all time favorites from Dolly is "Joshua" or "Love is like a butterfly"......
