I actually like this version better than the original. It’s a very well- done cover of Let It Be.

You and me both. At least I’m a young 70 still listening to 60’s music.

Never did like the song, it’s filled with BS – they can never let it be. Speaking words of wisdom? BS!

P.S. I don’t like Dolly either–she’s a big time liberal.

I made so much sense when she whispered “let it be.”

Goldenfoxx – you apparently don’t know much about Dolly Parton. She is an extremely generous, self-effacing, down to earth individual. She is highly respected by liberals and conservatives alike in Nashville where she lives. She grew up poor in Sevierville, TN, and recognized that most low income families do not stress reading as part of childhood growth, development and future success. Her Imagination Library foundation provides free books for any child from birth to age five.
If being liberal is your criteria for liking a musician, then your playlist must be pretty small. To my knowledge she separates her politics from her public performances and appearances. My favorite musician is a big time lib (performed for a Hillary Clinton fundraiser), but he has never once used his celebrity status as a platform to push his political beliefs. Same with Dolly.

“Here’s the playlist for her upcoming rockstar album.”
20. “Stairway To Heaven” (Feat. Lizzo…)
No. Hell no. Full stop.

Well, if one song/singer is all it takes, don’t waste your time. I’m sure you won’t.

To those who “don’t like Dolly”; she’s one of the most prolific songwriters in history and extremely talented, her politics aside. Why does everyone need to inject politics in to everything? Politics is what got us in to the mess we’re in. And, why people listen to entertainers and sports figures relative to politics is interesting. The ability to sing, play or perform on the sports field doesn’t bestow upon anyone great intellect or insight. Performers are just normal people who have opinions like anyone else along with their particular gift.

PLEASE!
No More Beatles.
Yoko still gets a cut FFS!
4
Let me know when she presents The Dixie Stampede again, complete with the overarching theme of Nort and South reconciliation.
Until then, Dolly can ESAD.
And take those Commie Beetles with her.
5
How long until she dumps the song with Kid Rock?
He is far too anti-Woke for some on the album…

WTF?
Rockstar should feature Nickelback!
World on Fire should feature Daughtry
2
Night Moves without Bob Seger? Sacrilege.

15. “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” (feat. P!nk & Brandi Carlile) I’ve heard lots of singers and Only the Stones do this right.
“Watchers pray in times of trouble
Restless by the harbor wall
Waiting for the stormy winds to fall
With microphone and tv camera
Money and tears and a song to sing
This is where the buy and sell begins
For media and for industry
Consumers of the world agree
Nothing sells like disaster, let it be
This manufactured sympathy, drowing in hypocrisy
Smiles to clinch the deals to boost the sales
All the owners of the printing presses
And postars crying phony tears
Nothing bleeds like the hearts of the millionaires
For the charts and the state machine
Consumers of the world agree
Nothing sells like disaster, let it be
Greed and lies and economics
A captains’ crew to make the rules
And a band to play the waltz on this ship of fools
Media sales
Media sales
For profit, stars, and company
Consumers of the world agree
Nothing sells like disaster, let it be
Nothing sells like disaster, let it be”
-Chumbawumba, “Let It Be”

HEY DOLLY, LET US SEE!!
(@)(@)
as a Beatle fan I say …. for God & Mankind’s sake, just LET IT BE!!!!
never did have much for The Beatles last commercial album. produced before they broke up, but released after their ‘Abbey Road’ finale (which was a very good album, except for the typical McCartney tripe ‘Maxwell’s Silver Hammer’)
‘Let it Be’ was an over-produced disaster, thanks to Lennon giving the mix tapes to Phil Specter, & telling him, “see what you can do with these”. even Lennon didn’t like it … but he bitched about everything. the ‘Let It Be, Naked’ version is better. even the one in Peter Jackson’s film ‘Get Back’ is better.
might be more appropriate to re-name it … ‘Look At Me.’
btw, there are not many better ‘words of wisdom’ than to just Let it be.

I don’t know aircubed, I think ‘Night Moves’ might be one of the best songs on the album.
Chris Stapleton will do it justice.
He has the soulful country voice for it as long as Dolly stays in the background with the chorus…
Love Dolly and love the Beatles. WIN.

Goldenfoxx sez –
*They can never let it be.*
No truer words spoken.
How bout we write a song called, “Let US Be?”
