Start Jamming...
Well, hey, this is Dolly, in case you didn't recognize me.
And I am so excited to be working with Olivia Newton-John,
one of my favorites of all time.
We've kind of always stayed close through the years.
And I am just so proud to be a part of this duet project
that she's doing.
We're singing one of my all-time favorites
that I've written called Jolene.
And she says it's one of her favorites.
So why not just do a duet on our favorite?
I'm excited.
I've always wanted to sing with Dolly.
