About this listen

Dolly Rebecca Parton grew up in extreme poverty in Appalachian Tennessee, and over the course of a legendary 60-year-and-counting career, would become one of the most important artists in country music. A singer, a songwriter, an actor, a producer, an entrepreneur, and a philanthropist, Dolly has basically done it all – and she’s done it all better than almost anyone. Dolly has released 50 albums, and more than 200 singles, dating back to 1959’s “Puppy Love” to 2025’s “If You Hadn’t Been There.” So join the Great Pop Culture Debate as we pay tribute to a genuine American icon as we attempt to name the Best Dolly Parton Single. Songs discussed: “Jolene,” “My Tennessee Mountain Home,” “Two Doors Down,” “Why’d You Come In Here Lookin’ Like That,” “Baby I’m Burnin’,” “Islands in the Stream,” “I Will Always Love You,” “Backwoods Barbie,” “9 to 5,” “Straight Talk,” “Eagle When She Flies,” “Hard Candy Christmas,” “Here You Come Again,” “Joshua,” “Light of a Clear Blue Morning,” “Coat of Many Colors” Join host Eric Rezsnyak, GPCD panelists Curtis Creekmore and Jonny Minogue, and special guest Kevin Rice as they discuss 16 of Dolly’s most beloved singles.
