[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] :evil: this is horrible!!! Stay on your side of the sidewalk! Yuck yuck yuck!!! She is no and will never be a Dolly Parton!! And as for the ones endorsing her?......please!!! Country music is country music! And it doesn't come from wannabees. Just because you carry a lot of $ and your name is known DOES NOT mean you step across to my side of the sidewalk! Yuck!!!![/quote]

Dolly seems to like her just fine. Of course she's not Dolly Parton! She's her own person!

I quite liked the album actually and it was kind of definitely NOT a country album although a lot of country influences. The Miley song is great. [/quote]
I just listened to Beyonce's version of "Jolene" and I don't like it. [b]The lyrics are reworked[/b] to be empowering or threatening or something. Beyonce might've produced the best version of the song ever (and this song has been covered extensively) if she kept the lyrics as originally written. Whitney Houston covered "I Will Always Love You" and turned a beautiful song into a masterpiece. Beyonce missed an opportunity, imo.[/quote]

It was so cringe and embarrassing.  I'd kill my husband if he wrote a song about me cheating on him.  [/quote]

I mean the original song is about begging a woman not to come steal your husband so its not exactly a non cringe moment in any of its iterations[/quote]
The song has the catchiest hook ever. You can't help but sing along. "Jolene" is way better than "Stand By Your Man". Beyonce did an entire album (Lemonade) about getting cheated on, so it's a bit weird to rework Jolene. Dolly's Jolene is like a woman to woman talk; whereas [b]Beyonce's version lookss like some loser girl is doing a territorial pissing around her guy[/b] who no one really wants except for his money.[/quote]

Which clearly happens all.the.time.[/quote]
