Name Dolly's song

So since the tour has finnished and the movie has been out for a while it's been pretty quiet here....I'm not sure how many people are still around or if anyone will even participate (if not oh well) but i thought i would start a name that song game....it can be anything Dolly has sung whether she wrote it or not....whoever gets it right first has to pick a line or a few words for the next song....i know ya'll can just look it up on the internet but try to remember it first......ok i'm not going to start with an easy one...

This one is 'Heartsong' Its

This one is 'Heartsong'

Its getting harder to think of difficult songs now - at least I'm enjoying playing all Dolly's old songs again. (I never need much of an excuse to do that)

Try this one - The door's always open'.

A bitter sweet refrain of my smokey mountain home...

Damn now i just look silly

Damn now i just look silly lol somehow your post came before me after i had posted mine....confusing yet true hehe anyway i'll just stick whith what i was originally posting:
hmmm may it be 'i'll never say goodbye'
okies umm...'that's where we always meet'....no idea what it's about or atleast what would be so wrong >< any guesses?

Mary Cox's picture

Hi everyone - first of all -

Hi everyone - first of all - Suzanne, you can buy Heartsongs - Live from Home CD from Amazon UK - or an MP3 download from them (Heartsongs is one of the tracks.

Now the challenge - this is from 'Dark end of the street'.
I guess you didn't have parents like mine. I used to meet a boy in the shadows (dark end of the street) when I didn't want my folks to see him - lol. So I'm guessing Dolly had the same agenda.

Next song - When I'm in his arms held tight. (one of the sweet older ones.)

dollyismyangel's picture

hmmm 'Bobby's arms' ok next

hmmm 'Bobby's arms'
ok next one : 'I love you so much you are my life'
have a good one ;)

mellissa pryor's picture

Mary Cox's picture

It's another one of my

It's another one of my favourites - Rocking Years - from one of my favourite albums, Eagle When She Flies (well that's where I originally got it - it's been on loads since.)

Here's another of my favourites (I have 100's of favourites lol) 'Well I can hardly remember, I donlt know why I'm crying'.

dollyismyangel's picture

it's ' a few old memories' i

it's ' a few old memories'

i know what you mean....i have heaps of favourites and although there is one song that's special and i listen to everyday...i find there are just so many each day i want to listen to that it's hard to chose lol
ok next one: 'i love you both and this will be'

Mary Cox's picture

Its D.V.O.R.C.E - getting

Its D.V.O.R.C.E - getting crafty now aren't we. My instinct was to say Two Lovers but I knew the words weren't the quite the same. I knew that I knew the song - then it came to me - I actually associate it with Tammy more than Dolly - even though I have both gals singing it.

It is hard to know what album to play so I have them all on an MP3 player and I either 'shuffle' or just go through the lot - problem sorted.

Lets see if I can think of a hard song. How about this - But there's too much of you still left'

mellissa pryor's picture

mellissa pryor's picture

It's 'The Bargain Store'.

It's 'The Bargain Store'. Never understood why this got so much bad press. Whoever thought this was about prostitution didn't really listen to the song - oh I understand the first impression but if you really listen to the song it's all about her broken heart (Don't care anyway, I still bought it - lol).
Enough of the soap box speech here's the next song - with Easter in mind 'And my spirit is crying for leavin'.

mellissa pryor's picture

its gotta be stairway to

its gotta be stairway to heaven!
I love dolly's version of it ok lets stick with the spiritual ones for easter
"and just befor the sunrise"

i love this one its so powerful!

dollyismyangel's picture

mary....huh...i didn't

mary....huh...i didn't realize people thought that song was about prostitution lol what a crack up....though i was pretty little when i heard it so i definately didn't think that! and i still don't!
the answer is 'he's alive' i bloomin love that song....especially the live version...
ok next one is 'a place to fuss'
wonder if Dolly played this game how many she would get without looking it up lol

mellissa pryor's picture

well i had to look that one

well i had to look that one up so ill wait see if Mary gets it lol
i have not heart he's alive LIVE but i can imagine.....well girls if we get to 100 replys for the blog dolly just might join us or at least we could hope :)

ill recap that "a place to fuss" was dollyismyangels line

Mary Cox's picture

Lol what are you trying to

Lol what are you trying to say Mellissa..... the song is 'Home is where the hurt is'(As Iam sure you know).

I will do anything I can to make sure we get to 100 blogs. Even if I have to post the question and answer it myself lol. In fact 'I'll beg and I'll plead'. So there is the next song

Have a wonderful Easter darlin's

dollyismyangel's picture

next one girls "i spread my wings and fly"

Mary Cox's picture

Lol - that's not cheating Its

Lol - that's not cheating Its using all available means to solve a problem. Dolly would be thrilled that you care enough to make the effort. I suppose I cheat 'cos I don't sleep very well and I have my MP3 player plugged in my ear all night listening to Dolly (and some others). I suppose I could learn a new language but I much prefer Dolly lol.

No need to cheat on this one though - its 'When I get where I'm going'. A lovely duet with Brad Paisley.

My sleeples nights have inspired my next choice of song 'I cup my hand to catch a multi-coloured Butterfly'.

Hang in there girls - we will get there.

Mary it's terrible isn't

Mary it's terrible isn't it....usually i can only get about 3-4 hours sleep a night until one night it all just catches up with me and i sleep for 8 lol i don't listen to anything though i just go to bed and lie there for three hours cursing that i can't sleep then get up for a while...well i still haven't finnished my assignment....i have abotu 5 hours to go but had to come to see if there were more posts lol i'm great at procrastinating

Wow - a real blast from the

Wow - a real blast from the past. I think Dolly must have been 3 when she sang this with Porter - a bit older perhaps lol. I think its the old country gospel song 'One day at a time'.

Lets have another song that symbolises Easter.'And they always put you to the test'.

Happy Easter everyone - don't eat too much chocolate (I might though lol)

dollyismyangel's picture

next song 'Do you come to this place often' tis an easy one

Mary Cox's picture

This is 'Single Women'. I didn't answer it yesterday to give others a chance - I guess you were still too busy eating chocolate.

Come on everyone - hang in there - only 11 to go to 100 blogs. If it helps I will make this one easy too.

Next song is: I can hear the wind a blowin' in my mind.
