She did a great job singing that Dolly Parton song. She will be missed.

Am I the only one on planet Earth who actually thinks she murdered that song and that when Dolly sings it, it's 100 times better? Oh well, guess you shouldn't speak ill of the dead.

No, I agree with you whole heartedly about it.

Link to Dolly Parton version:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TVS9QX3W5g

Which lead me to search out this song, which tells a sad story:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcZyppmUk3M

Which lead me to search out this song which is absolutely tragic:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZt5Q-u4crc

An since I don't want to end this post on a tragic note, listen to Dusty Springfield:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dp4339EbVn8

And now I truly end on a sad note, Eva Cassidy. Sorry for the ad. Her music is worth a listen:

Edit to change artist name.

Totally agree with that. Eva Cassidy is worth about 10 Whitney Houstons! A brilliant life cut tragically short.

I'm kind of surprised there's anyone who hadn't already come across Ode to Billy Joe - it's an absolute classic.

She had it all
In the list I miss the song cocaine from J.J Cale.
I wonder who is going to get the blame on this one and what teh record companies will do I heard that she had to bring out at least 1 but probably 2 new albums as she had already gotten the money for them.
