    I always thought Jolene was her best song. 9 to 5 is pretty good too, and not a bad film either.

    I can't imagine wanting to go to Dollywood though.

    She pretened to play the piano for a bit, you know when you go to Ikea and they have fake xboxes and fake TVs, well this thing was worse, looked like it had been knocked up by the thickest guy in woodwork.

    Could never figure out how she could play guitar given the length of her nails

    A good turn though and wrote some good songs some of which made the careers of other singers.

    I love Dolly Parton - "It costs a lot of money to look this cheap"

    I do like the way she told Tom Parker to get lost when he 'offered' to let Elvis sing 'I will always love you' for half the rights. Watched a program with her last year where she said she could buy Graceland for what she made off the Whitney cover version. Touche.

    Still, I expected more from her, lip synch through a gig is not on.

    I still don't know why the gig was televised on BBC Alba.
