Dolly was on the Porter Wagner Show and did duets with him, also. She agreed to stay for five years. Porter was upset when she wanted to leave and go solo. She went home and wrote this in one night. After hearing the song, Porter understood and they remained close friends. Knowing this makes it so much more emotional. Dolly always appreciated Whitney’s cover and joked about how much money she took to the bank off it❤️

Just a few years after this song was recorded, my wife’s father died unexpectedly. They were extremely close. He was only 44. She was only 24. After we went to the funeral, we were sitting in the car and I turned on the radio. This song began playing immediately. My wife broke down again, telling me that this was her father’s way of saying goodby and that it was OK to move on. I’ll never forget that moment and this version will always be my favorite.

Dolly is a storyteller in the Smoky Mountain tradition. We Southerners call her Miss Dolly...always...because she is just one fine human being. She’s written thousands of songs and many of them were made huge by other people. Perhaps Carol King and Willie Nelson are the only ones as prolific. She has given away more books than anyone has, employs about 5K people with her company (most from the poor Appalachian area where she was raised), and genuinely cares for those who cross her path. Very humble despite her successes. I recommend Coat of Many Colors because that song embodies her values about more than any other. So good.

Dolly is a genius. There is another song called Jolene which was another big hit for her. She wrote that song and this one on the same day!! The guy whose show she was on back then got a bit angry about her leaving to go on her own, so she wrote this to him. He sued her and they had a recording company together that recorded all their duets, so it took a while to settle the lawsuit. He said some unkind things about her for a while, but she did nothing wrong. Several years later He fell on hard times financially and had to sell his musical catalog. She bought it and gave it back to him as a gift. They became friends again and when he was in the hospital just before he passed. Dolly would visit him and play and sing for him. She is widely known as the sweetest most generous woman. When the floods etc. destroyed large swaths of Tennessee, she gave away hundreds of thousands of dollars to people to help them rebuild. She is 74 now and still performing. Check out Jolene and also coat of many colors. That one is about her life growing up. Enjoy!!

You definitely need to do her duet with Kenny Rodgers "Islands in the Stream", you'll recognize the memory from a popular Pras hit in the mid-90s..... points if you guess which lol

Voice of an angel. Whitney and Dolly are two songbirds that will never be duplicated.

This is the first song I learned. I still sing along to it and remember every word.

Her duet with Kenny Rogers ( the Bee Gees written "Islands in the Stream" mega-hit) or her trio with Linda Rondstadt & Emmy Lou Harris singing a cover of Neil Young's "After the Goldrush"
