I've been worried about her for a while now with the somewhat mysterious messages about her health. Very sad news.

Just going to put this out there, as I had no idea she ever performed this song!

I remember seeing this on a playlist. Out of musical curiosity I decided to check it out, and braced myself for the worse.
It was a totally different arrangement to suite her musical style, and surprisingly not only was it not as bad as I had feared, but I actually appreciated the rework of this iconic song. Very brave, but she pulled it off.

I really like her singing duet with Ronnie Milsap on his Smokey Mountain Rain song.

Wow Bay and Prestonyte thank you. I finally got to watch the videos of Stairway to Heaven and Southern Accents - awesome but you guys brought me to tears. I love Led Zep, had no idea Dolly did that. Hard to imagine if you know it has banjo, violins, slide/steel(guitar) but it works! Then watched the TP that was too much seeing him and her and the beautiful version of it. I didn`t realize she and Tom were friends. I will grab some Kleenex before I watch it again.

Dolly could do anything and make it work well.
She never let the situation or her surroundings change her and was always herself no matter who was watching or listening. To say she was unique is an understatement!

She was extremely unique. Her life story is unbelievable.
