Dolly Parton To Debut “Rock” Song During The ACM Awards
Dolly Parton’s first ROCK album is coming this fall.
It’s called “Rock Star”, and now we know when we’ll hear the first single.
She told “Good Morning America” it’ll debut May 11th at the end of the “ACM Awards”, which she’s co-hosting with Garth Brooks.
“It’s kind of fitting to the times, it’s called ‘World on Fire.’ ‘Liar, liar, the world’s on fire, whatcha gonna do when it all burns down.’ So, it’s really kind of about the times and how we can do a little better if we try–to try to heal the divide and just get along a little better. And so, it’s really got a great message to it, but it’s also good and solid–kind of like a rock anthem.”
She’s apparently got some big names joining her on the album.
We don’t know exactly who yet, but a few names we’ve seen tossed around include Stevie Nicks, Steve Perry, Miley Cyrus, Cher, Pink, Elton John, Steven Tyler, Pat Benatar, Joan Jett, and Paul McCartney.
In other Dolly news, the website StudyFinds.com just ranked her top five songs according to fans and critics.
They went through a dozen lists by sites like “Billboard” and “Rolling Stone” and based it on all of their rankings combined.
They gave the top spot to “Coat of Many Colors” from 1971.
The rest of the top five are “Jolene”, “I Will Always Love You”, “9 to 5”, and “Here You Come Again”.
