It’s Official! Dolly Parton is releasing a rock album, and she wants Sir Elton John to join her!
Dolly has messaged Elton asking him to duet with her on ‘Don’t Let the Sun Go Down On Me’.
She said: “I just recorded for my rock album and I did [Elton’s] song, ‘Don’t Let the Sun Go Down On Me’. And I’ve sent out a message asking if he would sing with me on it and possibly play the piano. So if y’all get to see him, say Dolly wants you to sing on her record! So anyway, but I love him, just tell him to enjoy it because it was great fun for me.”
The upcoming album, which is set for release in 2023, will feature a mix of classic rock covers, and Dolly even promises some new tunes as well.
Dolly teased: “I’m working on that album and that will be coming out sometime next fall hopefully, in time for the Christmas season next year. And so I’m going to do a lot of classic songs that are rock songs and then a few that I’ve written.”
Do you think Elton would actually say no to Dolly? I don’t think anyone says no to Dolly.
Dolly and Elton have performed together before at the CMA’s in 2005, they performed a cover of “Imagine.”
BTW…Dolly Parton has now made her debut on TikTok, so definitely check that out and give her a follow!
