Miss Dolly was a songwriter, a singer, an actress, a businesswoman and a philanthropist. And she did them all at the highest level. And she remained a gracious and generous human being.
She wrote this song for her movie 9-5.. she did that beat by scrapping her fingernails together !! She’s so awesome !! They asked her if she could write a song and she said sure and she got those fingernails going and got a beat and then wrote the song in one day .. !!! She’s so smart!! She says she wants men to think she’s a dumb blonde cause that just helps her in business cause they don’t realize she’s really smart so she knows how to get the upper hand on business deals .. Elvis wanted to buy her songs and Dolly said oh no they are mine .. The Queen politely told the King.. so Kevin Costner just wanted permission to use it for the Bodyguard and Dolly said hell yeah that young lady’s gonna make me rich !! 😆 and Whitney made Dolly rich !! Still is the biggest selling soundtrack to a movie ever. !! Till this day !
Dolly has probably written a song for every single singer in the music industry since the 70's. And she holds the rights to every single one. And yet she is the most humble and wonderful person on the planet because she grew up with nothing.
Also watch “Steel Magnolias”, Dolly held her own with some of the greatest actors ever. Sally Fields, Shirley McClain, Olympia Dukakis! Young Julia Roberts and Darryl Hannah round out a spectacular cast in a beautiful drama (many laughs too) about female friendship through the years! Dolly Parton is just one of the best humans on this planet! Her contributions to the Covid19 vaccine (millions), her literacy campaign to put books in the hands of children who need them, plus multiple other ways. I’ve loved her since I saw her on the Porter Wagoner show as a little girl.
Best line from this movie..."I put up with your pinching, and your staring...and chasing me around the desk; cause I need this job; but this is the last straw...Look, I got a gun out there in my purse, and up til now I've been forgiving and forgetting, because of the way I was brought up, But I'll tell you one thing, if you ever say another word about me, or make another indecent proposal ...I'm gonna get that gun of mine and I'm gonna change you from a rooster to a hen with one shot.....AND DON'T THINK I CAN'T DO IT!!!!" hahahahaha now that's telling the boss where to go!!! CLASSIC!
She just released a rock album last year. I have yet to hear it but now that I know it exists, I am buying it! When I was 7 or 8 I went through a phase where all I would listen to was Dolly. No regrets.
I bet if you interviewed her today, she would be absolutely shocked at all the attention she is getting now. She’s making a comeback without even trying!
She was also in the movie steel magnolias. If you’ve never seen it you should watch that movie. One of the best movies I’ve ever watched. It also has Julia Roberts Sally Field and many more great actors and actresses in it.
If you've watched Dead pool 2 this song is the opening. But the 9 to 5 movie is a must see. It's hilarious. It was one of my grandma's favorite movies, we use to watch it together when I was little.
Dolly Parton also made a movie about her childhood for a TV movie for NBC called Coat of Many Colors based off the story of the so h by the same title! Tear jerker! Also there is a movie on Netflix called Dumplin with Jennifer Anniston that she had something to do with but did not act in. She was also in a movie with Burt Reynolds called The Best Little Whore House in Texas and Steel Magnolias
no dolly parton wrote and made this song a hit all by her lonesome. dolly is the total package , she writes most of her own songs ( has written a total of over 3 thousand songs as a matter of fact dolly doesn't copy anyone but they sure do like doing her songs , shes beautiful , she has been in 4 or five movies i know of , she can sing and has her own sound , nobody sounds like dolly , she plays guitar... there is so much talent in this woman that it just plain blows us all away. She has one up on Elvis as Elvis was almost the total package except he did not write his songs. so its .... songwriter , singer , actress , muscians , beautiful personality and charm and physically beautiful= TOTAL PACKAGE and her and i have the same great great grandmother ..Betsy Jane Parton.
Dolly is tops. She's the best of the best. She's the Queen of Country. She is fabulous. She's loved of millions. She's a living legend and absolutely superb. None other like her and never will be ever.
Excited! Been waiting for this one. The movie is so funny. Definitely a blast from the past watching it today, but back then it was ahead of its time. You hit the nail on the head as far as what the movie is about, but the song always came across to me as more of a universal class/wage gap.
You won't regret watching the movie, it's seriously funny! I loved your reaction to this wonderful old song! Yes, I'm sure Dolly wrote songs for just about everybody!
Fun fact - Home Free covered this, and it's just as great as Dolly's original and as funny as the movie. Check it out when you're doing reactions for them.
MJ was a solo artist at the time she wrote the theme song for 9to5. Jane Fonda"s movie .Dolly agreed to act in the movie if she wrote the theme song.Imma guess it's release at 1979?That tapping you hear is Dollys fake finger nails tapping on her guitar to sound like a type writer..The movie is hilarious.One of my favs..However, can't say if it's a guys movie or not to be honest?Dolly and Kenny Roger's [Islands in the stream]A song the BeeGees wrote.Hugh hit. Crossed over to pop charts.✌
Check out the 30 tracks on her latest Rockstar album. Some are good, some are bad and some are well, Dolly. She did this rock album because of her entry into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.
She wrote it! She was in the movie 9 to 5 with Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin it’s hilarious 😂her different looks are because she wears wigs all the. Probably has a zillion. She’s a multi millionaire 💰💵
Dolly became a crossover artist, meaning she had a series of “Pop Music top-40” songs during these years. Dolly wrote songs for Elvis, Tina Turner, and more.
Dolly had this look for the movie and she is fond of saying she likes to basically look trashy. Maybe dolly was black and the previous life because of the angelic voice and she was wearing hair pieces and wigs long before it was popular😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤
lol it was a MOVIE... i just watched it on amazon prime tonight, so of course it came up in my youtube feed.... dolly changed her wigs a lot for sure, the one in that vid is what she wore in the movie........ she prolly wrote that song for the movie
It is a good movie. But what you should watch is Ken Burns' documentary, Country. It will give you a very good idea of what you should respond to, and you will learn a great deal of useful information about music in general and how country music relates to and fits in with other genres.
The story behind Jolene "One night, I was on stage, and there was this beautiful little girl - she was probably eight years old at the time," Dolly told the outlet. "And she had this beautiful red hair, this beautiful skin, these beautiful green eyes, and she was looking up at me, holding, you know, for an autograph. I said, 'Well, you're the prettiest little thing I ever saw. So what is your name?' And she said, 'Jolene.' And I said, 'Jolene. Jolene. Jolene. Jolene.' I said, 'That is pretty. That sounds like a song. I'm going to write a song about that.'"
React to Dolly and friends video version of Romeo .. Billy Cyrus is in it and they became friends and that’s how she became Miley’s godmother ! The video is so cute !! Also her and Kenny Rogers (who the women love) duet on Islands in the stream live version at the CMA awards.. then you gotta react to Kenny’s music .. RIP he died the past year .. he best song is Lady written by Lionel Richie.. Lionel asked Kenny if he could write a song for Kenny .. he said yes .. Lionel asked Kenny if he wanted to meet him and help him w the song .. Kenny said I’m on my way .. he immediately dropped whatever he was doing and flew to Vegas where Lionel and his band the Commodores were playing at … Kenny ain’t stupid .. so Lionel was singing baby and wasn’t happy w it and Kenny said why not Lady .. and there goes bras and pantees flying on stage .. you must see the live version of Kenny in his white suit singing Lady !! One of the best songs ever written !!
They voted on best duets ever in country music and Kenny and Dolly were number one w Islands in the Stream .. I think you should react to Dolly’s live version of Jolene .. I think it’s in Severeville TN at the Dixie stampede .. cause that’s all hers !! She wears a black dress I think but she tells us about Jolene ..
This song was at the beginning of Deadpool 2. Probably where you heard it. It was written for the movie she was also in called 9 to 5 which is where a lot of the stuff in the video is from as well. You should watch the movie. It's funny!
You need to check out one of my favorite scenes from this movie. It cracks me up every time. I think you'll like it too. Just type in "9 to 5 from a rooster to a hen". Enjoy!
Oh wow, that just , as a mom it puts me in tears thinking of the things we do for our kids and seeing that love returned despite what the other kids say.... just right in the feels.
Miss Dolly was a songwriter, a singer, an actress, a businesswoman and a philanthropist. And she did them all at the highest level. And she remained a gracious and generous human being.
Dolly Parton still is all that! SHE IS VERY MUCH ALIVE!
@@susannepalm9740 77 years old and STILL releasing albums
That's a bold use of the past tense...
Rude
And…fantastic producer!

Oh my gosh, that’s favorite movie of mine. All of those ladies done a fabulous job
She also partly built Dollywood to bring jobs to her community.
It's a great movie!
I was named after steel magnolias Julia roberts character
Best line from this movie..."I put up with your pinching, and your staring...and chasing me around the desk; cause I need this job; but this is the last straw...Look, I got a gun out there in my purse, and up til now I've been forgiving and forgetting, because of the way I was brought up, But I'll tell you one thing, if you ever say another word about me, or make another indecent proposal ...I'm gonna get that gun of mine and I'm gonna change you from a rooster to a hen with one shot.....AND DON'T THINK I CAN'T DO IT!!!!" hahahahaha now that's telling the boss where to go!!! CLASSIC!
Between her and Neil Diamond, yeah they pretty much wrote everything.
Just another reason Dolly needs to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
She made it in in the last induction.
And hell freaking yeah she MADE it!!
She just released a rock album last year. I have yet to hear it but now that I know it exists, I am buying it! When I was 7 or 8 I went through a phase where all I would listen to was Dolly. No regrets.
When you need a good laugh watch the movie. It’s a classic and it’s hilarious.
I bet if you interviewed her today, she would be absolutely shocked at all the attention she is getting now. She’s making a comeback without even trying!
This was written by Dolly Parton and no one else covered it AFAIK.
The movie is amazing!
Home Free covered this song.
There’s a live video of “Jolene” where Dolly tells the backstory… Jolene was a bank teller that was hitting on her husband
She was also in the movie steel magnolias. If you’ve never seen it you should watch that movie. One of the best movies I’ve ever watched. It also has Julia Roberts Sally Field and many more great actors and actresses in it.
9 to5 is a classic, and it is hilarious. Made in the 1980s . She is an excellent actress . And she has made other movies as well .
This was the theme song , for the movie 9-5 and she wrote it .
This is the soundtrack to the movie from 9 to 5 she wrote the theme song and starred in the movie, check out the movie, you’ll love it
Dolly, is just a wonderful human being who just has it wrapped up in a bag🤗
The movie is from the 80s and it really holds up. The pacing is a little slower than what we're used to in today's movies but it's still a fun watch.
It's one of my favorite movies ever. Lily Tomlin is one of my favorite performers of all time.
If you've watched Dead pool 2 this song is the opening.
But the 9 to 5 movie is a must see. It's hilarious. It was one of my grandma's favorite movies, we use to watch it together when I was little.

This was the catchy theme to the movie 9 to 5, which she also starred in. You have def heard this song before. It’s a great song.
And def watch the movie. It’s a really funny movie. It might be on you tube. It’s a girl power movie. For sure.
I watched this in my childhood. It made me want to have more respect in the workplace later. I tell my daughter the same thing.
I REALLY want his reaction to the movie
Definitely watch the movie.

9to5 starring Dolly, Jane Fonda Lilly Tomlin and Dabney Coleman
It was about women getting exploited but it was about all working people.
Jolene was the bank teller in Sevierville, TN 😂
Dolly says he’d husband was banking way more than they had money 😂
And ... on top of all this, she can play a mean guitar with 1/2" length fingernails! Try that! Genius, legend, artist ...
Love that movie! Love Dolly!
Yes Dolly Parton is an actress as well as singer/ songwriter ❤ She's the godmother of Miley Cyrus ❤️
She wrote it! She was in the movie 9 to 5 with Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin it’s hilarious 😂her different looks are because she wears wigs all the. Probably has a zillion. She’s a multi millionaire 💰💵

She might be a d icon but never say you would bow down too her. She is just a human being. If you are going to bow down make it only to God okay.😊
Lol…I named my daughter after a character in the “Game of Thrones” book series
Listen to Dolly Parton world on fire
She wrote it for the movie 9 to 5

Dude watch tonight's superbowl halftime show. Dolly parton in a Dallas cheer leader outfit.
This IS from movie 9to -5 she wrote that song
9-5 s one of my favorite movies, as well as, “Best Little Whorehouse in Texas” starring Dolly Parton and Burt Reynolds.
I have the movie on VHS. She also acts and sings in the movie, The Beverly Hillbillies (1993). Just a small scene but it is still good.
Dolly wrote this song in 1980.
Game of Thrones reference. I love it!
OFF the wall?............So tonight
Gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf
An' just enjoy yourself

Great movie!
The movie’s probably on Roku
It's her song. And it's one of her best

Funny reaction! 😂
If you want to hear about her life, listen to "Coat of Many Colors."
Oh wow, that just , as a mom it puts me in tears thinking of the things we do for our kids and seeing that love returned despite what the other kids say.... just right in the feels.
