Daniel Welsh is a London-based entertainment journalist at HuffPost UK. His areas of expertise are film, TV and music. He particularly enjoys reality TV, Madonna and getting compliments about his hair.
during a recent interview, the country music icon admitted she initially thought Beyoncé’s Jolene would be a “regular” cover, so it came as a surprise when the singer reinvented the song with new lyrics.“I think it was very bold of her,” she explained. “When they said she was going to do Jolene, I expected it to be my regular one – but it wasn’t! But I love what she did to it, and as a songwriter, you love the fact that people do your songs, no matter how they do them.
Beyoncé’s cover of Jolene is introduced by an audio message from its original singer, in which she says: “Hey Miss Honey Bee. It’s Dolly P. You know that hussy with the good hair you sing about? Reminded me of someone I knew back when. Except she has flaming locks of auburn hair, bless her heart. Just a hair of a different colour, but it hurts just the same.
