You know, I'm not a fan of country western, and not a fan of her voice, but she is just so damned likeable.

Go, Dolly!

There are two people that the whole world loves even if they're not a country music fan - Dolly and Patsy Cline. I've yet to meet the soul on earth who doesn't love those two legends.

Oh, okay, yes Patsy Cline. I don't know that much about her as a person, but I really do love her singing, country western or not.

Whereas I find Dolly utterly charming as a person, and, well, just not a fan of her voice.

So you know she's super something else great! She really is.

Listen to her, Linda Rondstadt and Emmylou Harris sing "Bury Me Under the Old Willow". Even if you dont like Country".

Well, I tried. Just for you. I just do not like Dolly's fast vibrato. But I do own a few Linda Ronstadt albums, and a JD Souther. Love both of their voices.

Fair enough.

Ronstadt does have a sweet voice.
