She Should Have Stopped After “Jolene” - Jeff Tweedy On Dolly Parton

Jeff Tweedy, author of “World Without A Song,” tells Stephen that his book wouldn’t have worked if he didn’t list some songs that he’s not fond of, even if that meant taking shots at beloved icons like Dolly Parton.

Dolly is a national treasure she can sing as long as she wants

[@TeeJayDeluxe]

I agree.

[@ChanceTheGardenerrr]

I agree. We all agree. Jeff Tweedy agrees. But if I Will Always Love You comes on the radio, he switches to a different station. So do I. So do I think most people. But if Jolene comes on, well that’s different.

I love how when Steven puts people on the spot, he says their full name. And that way you cannot deny that he’s talking to you.

Is there anything Colbert **doesn't** know?! E.g.: Tweedy:"I'm not a big fan of [The Beatles'] 'Ob-La-di.'" Colbert, quick as greased lightning: "Neither was John [Lennon]." He's a walking encyclopedia, this man. So, yeah, Paul, "Please **do** come back on the show." Colbert deserves it!

Funny you should say this; when I first fell in love with Jeff and Wilco, I read that he dressed like he was in high school and his mother picked out his clothes LOL. He's amazing.

[@user-ud6zu5tx4q]

​@Jojoseahorse Shit my mom picked out my clothes. Then it just got to the point where I wore blue jeans or khakis and a t-shirt. I've never been stylish and never really cared to be. The thing is... for a man of his status, he's not wearing a $2k jacket on a interview. Which in my opinion is pointless. Just saying. Realist dude ever.

[@michaelsalovaara567]

“One Sunday Morning” is a song that makes me cry. The repetitive melody, the soft percussion and especially the voice. Also my lived experience of leaving church and the passing of my eldest brother years ago. I guess I listen to this song as a eulogy.

[@wwbit]

This interview is about it being ok to have an unpopular opinion because it's just a personal opinion. He's actually not demanding others feel the same way he does.

[@fresiaguerra3043]

Even though I don't agree with his opinion about a bunch of song I do agree that all songs in an album are not always great. Also, it's refreshing hearing someone NOT liking all songs and saying it openly

[@WardenJune]

I remember seeing Wilco at the Lockn' Festival, I think 2014. They followed Willie Nelson, on a stage next to the one Willie just finished up on. Willie and band weren't even off the stage yet, and Tweedy opens the set with something like "let's hear it for Willie Nelson. An American treasure. But honestly, don't you feel like you just heard Whiskey River 15 times in a row?" Ouch!

[@jayneneewing2369]

I came across this clip, saw the guy, and wondered who he was. Then you tell about Jeff bad mouthing Willie. And I thought, “Yeah, buddy, and I don’t even know who the f¥ck who you are.” Maybe he should keep his thoughts to himself. Rude little dude isn’t he?

[@YogsenForfoth]

He’s an angry, jealous manchild. He’s bitter about being so forgettable. 😂

[@borachon26]

​@@jayneneewing2369No, he's not. He's a total gent.

[@TheGreatAtario]

Dolly's recording of "I Will Always Love You" is gentle and touching. Whitney Houston's version is a jackhammer on my skull.

[@patriciagrandjean8205]

Yeah, I agree Dolly’s original is better than Whitney’s dumb diva cover. But the song is not a masterpiece-Jolene is the killer. I don’t even think Dolly thinks that highly of it. And before anyone presumes Jeff is being a jerk, he’s 10 times as critical of his own work.

[@richardhale4513]

Agreed! Whitney butchered a masterpiece.

[@BooBuKittyPhuk]

Dolly's was great and she's an AMAZING song writer, but that song was perfectly crafted for Whitney Houston, and her beautiful and powerful voice did Dolly's song justice. Also, Whitney Houston wasn't a "Diva" and didn't do unnecessary trills, or overdo notes, runs, or riff when she recorded this song, that was only done later in live performances. And to the person who wrote that, the term "Diva" itself as an insult, is really sexist and annoying just f.y.i.

[@ExtraordinaryMachine333]

Exactly, what is Dolly doing writing hit songs? She shouldn't have written I Will Always Love You and then her manager at the time wouldn't have let her go from her contract, and her career would have died an early death. Always take career advice from the guy who evidently camped out in front of the theater the night before. His life choices are clearly SOLID.

[@ExtraordinaryMachine333]

Oof, and he never liked the Beatles song "Oob La Di". You mean Ob La Di? Yeah, you clearly listened to it a lot when you can't even pronounce the song title/chorus.

[@chasing8405]

But Dude has had half her length of career, now makes a living criticizing other people's work and can't even take off his hat and run a brush through his hair when he's going to be on TV. It's wild that famous men can put zero effort into what they do and feel like they have any room to criticize women more successful than them. He could have at least made a minimal effort to like he gave a sh*t.

The version sung by Dolly doesn't hold out the I-eee-I like the more well known version as recorded by Whitney Houston. Far be it from me to criticize the late Whitney Houston, her voice was magic on that song and in general, but I do agree that not going I-eeee-I at the beginning of the chorus would have been a better choice.

[@timtibbitts1017]

When Whitney’s version of that song came out, I thought “Why is she yodeling like Tarzan?” I chalked it up to her still being young in her career, and doing that song, and that way, was bad advice from a manager.
