Must Watch: Together You and I

If there is one woman who can defy so many odds, it's Dolly Parton.  One of the biggest, if not the biggest gay icons in all of music, Dolly has managed to garner 25 number one singles, and 41 top-ten country albums.  She is the epitome of glamour and ageless beauty.

Dolly has recently released a new music video, "Together You and I," to rave reviews, and the 65 year old artist has shown that she can still belt it out like the rest of them. She wrote the uplifting lyrics due to current events, like bad weather, unemployment, and terrorists.

"I wanted to do something uplifting so even in the losing songs, I'm saying you're going to pick up the pieces," Dolly said in an interview with Billboard. "It seemed that with everything being so doomsday-terrorists and bad weather and unemployment-we need a little sunshine."

In the video, Dolly sings the uplifting lyrics as people on the bridge begin to hold hands and smile at each other.  I absolutely love it, because as much as the conservative folks love her, they hate her undying love for everyone around her - the gays, the Muslims, the Latinos, the poor, the unemployed, the list goes on.  To her, it doesn't matter who you are, and who you love, we are all people in her eyes.  And this is how it should be...us making a difference, "Together You and I."  

I Will Always Love You, Dolly! Thank you!
