@Davian ~ “This is a literal masterpiece. The lyrics are so touching and very well written. It’s a story and she paints the picture very clear.”

Eventhough I would place it higher, I’m happy it made Top 5!:diane: Everything about this track is amazing:heart:

What you want Lady Gaga🥂 What you want with Christina🥂

My official predictions: 

6 - Here You Come Again

5- Coat of Many Colors

4 - Light of A Clear Blue Morning

3 - I Will Always Love You

2- 9 to 5

1 - Jolene

I've been right so far.  :party:

The only deviations I can see are 9 to 5 being third and I Will Always Love You being second.

Comments:

@Lois Griffin ~ “This song deserves to be in the top tier of Dolly Parton songs that every American knows. The fact that it isn't as big as Jolene or 9 to 5 is a shame, because  this is perhaps Dolly Parton's most powerful song. I can only imagine the amount of lives this song has saved. For someone going through a tough time, this song is such a godsend. I'm almost brought to tears listening to it now.”

 

Chart Information:

US Hot Country Songs: #11 (13 Weeks on the Chart)

US Billboard Hot 100: #87 (5 Weeks on the Chart)

Canadian RPM Country Tracks: #4

 

Song Information:

After leaving her working partnership with Porter Wagoner, Parton was still on RCA Records and had the ability to find new producers. Her 1977 album “New Harvest, First Gathering” is actually produced by Parton herself (which was frowned upon in 1970’s Nashville). The album ended up peaking at #1 on the Country Album Charts and spawned one successful single: “The Light of a Clear Blue Morning”. Parton would later re-record the track for her 1992 movie soundtrack for the film Straight Talk (in which she also starred).

 

Other Nominations (N) and Wins (W) Associated With The New Harvest, First Gathering Era:

American Music Award (1977) – Favorite Country Album (W)

CMT Music Award (1977) – Album of the Year (N)
