At this point I'm just hoping my '11' makes the Top 10 at least... Everything is so unpredictable:messga:

Jokes aside I actually really do like the guitar on that song! It's a very nice song, but it also has a message that you'll find in a lot of other pop songs. This didn't place too high in my rankings because I thought there were songs that had a unique voiceĀ that needed to be highlighted.

Comments:

@Lois Griffin ~ ā€œThis song is okay, but it's just okay. I'm not surprised that she didn't write this one because although she makes it sound like a Dolly Parton song, I could see anyone singing this song. For another recording artist that might be fine, but for an artist that has a thousands songs that I could listen to there isn't a lot drawing me to turn on this one.ā€

Song Information:

After the blockbuster success of the ā€œHere You Come Againā€ era, much pressure was on Parton to follow up with another successful album cycle. Released as the lead single for the album of the same name, ā€œHeartbreakerā€ alleviated much of RCA executivesā€™ trepidations after it became a Top 40 pop hit in 1978. It was followed up by the Top 30 pop hit ā€œBaby Iā€™m Burninā€™ā€ released in the same year. The Heartbreaker album itself peaked at #1 (45 Weeks) and #27 (34 Weeks) on the U.S Hot Country Album Chart and Billboard 200 respectively. It also peaked at #20 on the Canadian RPM Top Albums in 1978 as well.

I love the heartbreaker art.Ā I'm listening to this song now and I'm enjoying it, but while listening to it in the context of a megarate I felt like I had to give it my lowest score.Ā 

It will always be Dolly's second best heartbreak song to me.Ā
