Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please don't take him just because you can

With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your skin is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene...

In a comment section like this, I’m glad I have a great appreciation for diversity in music styles, meanings, etc. I don’t see a need to compare song versions, so I thoroughly respect Dolly’s original version - as well as Miley and Beyoncé’s renditions. Many artists’ do covers in their own artistically creative way all the time, but suddenly one cover “ruins” the song. Not true- the other versions still exist which fit your palette better, while a newer take on a song may suit someone else better. That’s why music styles, genres, and creativity don’t need to be categorically strict. (Hint: one overarching point of Beyoncé’s new album). Will keep coming back for Miley’s rendition always ❤

She is a phenomenal singer, and rather provocative artist in terms of her presentation to the public, and the insanity of her live performances rivals that of Kiss.

Her singing this song shows her true talent. By far better than her hip hop tracks. She has that deep down soul to pull off a classic country song of this magnitude. Id love to hear her try some patsy cline

[@paulmcgrouin9157]

Damn, I actually forgot just how great she is as a country singer.

[@Rosehawka]

mm, people do seem to forget her dad is Billy Ray Cyrus..

[@zachwhetstine48]

Rosehawka no I don't think we forget he's her father I think we forget how good of a country singer she is because how she acts now

Miley is perfection for this song ❤

[@TehillahHenry]

Her voice is so alive and pure here. You hear every note!! It's a shame her voice isn't as strong as this anymore.

[@TehillahHenry]

When I listen to her more recent recordings/live performances I can't hear as much clarity compared to this. That's not down to the way she's using her voice, or even style of music. I'd love to hear it more in her new music though, not to say I don't like her voice anymore, I still do! I've always liked her voice!

[@TasnuvaAshrafUm]

Listen to the ending of her cover of why'd you only ever call me when you're high

[@ashleykaranja]

Her voice IS still this strong but she isn't pressured to showcase it as much for profit because that's not what she's in it for now.

[@thisisreal1437]

I thinks it's cuz of her smoking and stuff like that.

[@doubleyouexwhyamzed]

+Tehillah Henry It's stronger now. Have you not heard Wrecking Ball?...

With the shimmering leaves in the background I can almost feel the summer breeze. She's got no shoes on, the grass is fresh and green as Miley sings ❤ I cant believe its been 11 years.

Haha! That's not the voice of angels. 🤣

She may always have her haters but, I’m with you. She’s always had what I consider to be a strong, beautiful voice. She’s a free, empowered woman, she can do whatever she wants 🤷🏼‍♀️ No one can stop her, that’s probably why they hate on her. 🙄

[@candyallaprima269]

@@rustic35 We can agree to disagree. Some of us like so called “two bid hookers”. Maybe people who get butt hurt by sexuality are projecting their own insecurities. People who throw insults like that, are always plagued by insecurities.

[@rustic35]

@@candyallaprima269 haha, nice projection! I'm not aware of any insecurities but, it's easy to see she's full of insecurities. She's one messed up unit!

[@candyallaprima269]

@@rustic35 Again, I have to agree to disagree. She doesn’t need me to stick up for her anyway, she’s doing just fine, from what I see. Genuinely confident people don’t bother insulting someone over clothing (or lack of). Only chauvinists call women hookers…. And btw, the saying is Two Bit, not “bid”.

[@nikkif6407]

N Jones. Honestly, I've gone through periods of both liking and loathing her, but in the end the girl has serious talent. I mean, she has spent her whole life growing up in the spotlight, so how can you really expect for her to grow up "normal?" Everyone makes mistakes when they're growing up and trying to find themselves, and I can only imagine how even more distorted and confusing it is to try and navigate through those years when you're famous and that is all you know. Talent-wise, she definitely has a real gift.

[@ojieprado2960]
