I use to teach reading to children and adults in a part of Appalachia that was(is) desperately poor, as part of a volunteer teaching program . Several times during my time there, we received boxes of books from Dolly Parton. How she found out about us, I'll never know. She is an amazing person.
@@psn64sat63 This was discussed last year on twitter pretty extensively from folk who actually worked the program - most non profits who participate in her program have to pay for the books - her program is basically the same as a book of the month club where her org is negotiating bulk book printing deals with manufacturers. Her organization is not literally buying these books and sending them to the end user, there is a multitude of in between non profits that are picking up the slack (and the bill) to sign up people and deliver these.

🤣🤣🤣🤣omg the moment she realizes the guitarist isn’t just good but actually great! Lol Steve Cooney is a genius, one of the best guitarists in Irish music for decades and still is (for those who see this and might not know of him).
Woah. Good eye. That's something no degree of money or talent can buy. Truly, a great gift. Old fashioned sentimentality is a rare trait these days. And well, all the best to you.
For Christ sake he made an eejit out of himself trying to be the big man, speaking in broken Irish and putting her on the spot, he gave his jersey , so what it's Kerry , the state of him
Proud is not strong enough a word for how we feel about Dolly, west coast, east coast, in Dixie and the Union Dolly is a masterclass in everything that makes the US a special place.
He revelled that moment, and had leftover some beautiful stuff. He is a master that collaborated with a worthy talent. I'll bet your eyes were a bit wet too.
We are more than proud of her, I’m East Tennesseean, she’s our HERO! That’s why we started a petition to remove Nathan Bedford Forrest’s statues and have them replaced with Dolly statues. She wouldn’t have it, though, wanted money to be spent where it mattered.
Old guy comes home from the pub. Wife calls out. “Hi Paddy how was the bar tonight?” “Oh sure me darling’ it was a fine evening. Dolly Parton was there and she sang a song.” Oh ya auld eejit...you and your stories.”
Dolly is fabulous and the guitar player is great. Paidí O’Sé deserves huge credit for making this happen though. It’s incredible when you think about it. One of the world’s great country singers (probably the greatest) and he convinced her to come to a tiny pub in Dún Chaoin. You were some man Paidí. Greatly missed.
Congrats to Steve Cooney for being a perfect accompanist. Dolly was once asked if she was offended by dumb blond jokes. She said she wasn't because she knew she wasn't dumb and she knew she wasn't blond.
Brings a tear to my eye. The late gorgeous and great Paidi and Dolly's beautiful song and fabulous personality. How lucky were the people who witnessed this.
When you have enormous talent, you don't need lighting, dancing and gimmicks. There are people that have better voices than Dolly, but not too many that sing better than her. She conveys humility, pathos, caring and so many virtues in her utterances. An infectious laugh. I demeanor that makes people around her feel good and special. And humility personified.
I am from Ireland, but don't live there now. As a former Gaelic football player It was not lost on me the really great gift that Paudi O Se generously gave to Dolly Parton. He wore that jersey with pride in 1995, and it would have been of enormous sentimental and emotional value to him. It's value has much more significance in my opinion than Dolly singing Coat of many Colors. Don't get me wrong I love the hugely talented Dolly. To Paudi, rest in peace.
@@christianpatriot125 Since the GAA are an amateur organisation the monetary value of Paudi O'Se's shirt is not a consideration here. However, the sentimental value of the shirt, I am certain for Paudi was beyond priceless, and all the more so because he was a native Irish speaker and captained the Kerry team that year. Having watched the Patriots all these years when Tom Brady was quarterback I would definitely say a Super Bowl, MVP shirt worn by him would have a priceless sentimental value. In this instance I would have no clue as to it's monetary value, that is if a monetary value should be attached to these things..
Such a sweetheart to sing for her fans even while she's on vacation! She genuinely cares about her fans and she's got such a big, wonderful heart and personality! Love this lady to pieces! (=
Angry Shamrock I’m afraid that most people live in their own bubble and are being told ad nausium that there is no evidence to say that. There are none so blind as those who will not see. We have the same problem with the virus. If people don’t hear the truth from their trusted media they will believe the lie they do.
Gallowglass It’s been proven to Angry Shamrock. Since no court has examined the evidence you can’t say he’s wrong. I believe fraud is inevitable when you use machine counting. You have to have clear and obvious oversight or human nature will inevitably lead to fraud. Especially when the choice is a binary one. Anyway, would you agree that Dolly should have that shirt framed and hanging next to her platinum records in Dollywood. She has the captain’s shirt of an 8 time World Football Champion. Correction 9 time champion. He won the All-Ireland as a coach too.
Dolly is angelical, but that guitar Man is in heaven that she's on duo with him. A Life experience with a real one. You can't play guitar for anyone higher than Dolly, not even playing for Elvis himself once.
I cry EVERY time I watch this! My mom was so very poor growing up, and I was a little less so. She and I took a trip to Dollywood last summer, and when we saw the actual coat of many colors on display we both got misty.
Such a pure mountain voice, you can hear it in every note she sings, and I'm sure all the Irish folks there that night heard their ancestors' influence in that music as well, their( and the Scot's) cousins across the pond created country music with the instruments they brought with them, it was about ALL they brought. They built cabins and stills in those mountains, the Germans and English came and set up breweries, and to this day, Americans drink WAY more hard liquor and beer than wine, it's not even close. Fun fact.
If there is any one scene which totally defines her as being among the best that has ever been, it is certainly this one! Totally ad-lib, and absolutely genuine. Geoff Rohde
Amazing footage. And heartwarming clumsiness of editing :-) And what an absolute gem of a perfomer she is. And don't forget Steve who just happened to be at hand and a very apt guitarist.
Amazing person, I don't think she's ever changed still just a genuine Mountain Girl from the hills of Tennessee. And the Irish people are so great. Bring that guitar player back to Nashville with you please. There's always room for one more Guitar in Nashville
I know Dolly is 30 years older then me but since i was 18 1990s i thought to myself i wish she was Wife. 😄❤ At that time she must of been 1 of the most beautiful woman in the World. And the most charming talented and intelligent to. And to me she still is in 2020.
That was so nice. It reminded me of when I sang in a bar inWaterville 50 years ago. I was no Dolly Parton but the people listened courteously as I sang, "500 Miles".
I'm sitting here alone with all the money a person could ask for and no one who would even think of stitching me something from their heart. Let me tell you Dolly speaks words of wisdom in her song.
It's my prayer this moment that you be given that coat by someone. Anyone. Lessons in life are learned just after they're needed. That's how I learned mine. You may nor believe me when I say this but . . . Jesus gave Joseph His coat and still Joseph went through the grinder only to come out loved and admired by generations. Its not over yet. Hayah God Bless in Christ Jesus.
Proof that life before life before computers and the internet was good. Talent, what’s in your heart and hard work still mean everything.. Thank you Dolly!
That was amazing, and dolly parton looked beautiful, and you can genuinely tell everyone enjoyed dolly being there, I would love to go to a pub like this,
Thanks for this amazing upload, she is just the most genuine and sweetest person on earth, wisdh she'd appear in my local and have a good sing song, we'd even teach her the Welsh hyms and folk songs!
This must have been the late 90s early 00s, What a Lovely Lady! I Wonder did She Know How Much She Was Loved on Our Island during Our Civil Divided War? By All Sides! What A Lady!
@@thefeelcompany Steve Cooney played in a band in Australia before he emigrated to Ireland many years ago. He's well known in Ireland and has accompanied lots of well-known folk and traditional musicians, does gigs on stage as well as playing in pubs.
What amazing hair. I don’t care if it’s a Wig. It’s gorgeous like dolly. French wore wigs for centuries. I think she’s very special and full of fun 🤩 and love
What a THRILL for Seamus on guitar, to sit in with Dolly Parton?? I'd give my right and left leg for that privilige, LoL! Smashing Video and God Bless the Oirish Heart that shared it and I'm a Scot with an Irish grandmother.
Dolly Parton is probably one of the best Americans who ever lived.
Probably one of the best People who ever lived.
@@CrazyHatDave3000 as a person, I can confirm this.
Patron Saint of Tennessee. She's not comfortable being lionized and lauded, but she is one of those magical people who light up the world.
And that man's wife...
Along with Mr. Rogers, I would have to agree.
Steve's pickin' was top shelf. Dolly & Steve: the collab we never knew we needed. 💖
Imagine being in a normal pub in Ireland, and Dolly Parton visits, talks, sing, everything. Pub's now blessed.
Pub was already blessed. Paidi was there.

Good man Stephen Conney. This LEGENDARY performance won’t have happened without him. HOLY SHIT. Dolly in a pub in Dingle. Well done lad
Fantastic!
A true gentleman and an absolute musical genious
It’s cool to see how he enjoyed playing with Dolly. A dream come true.👍
America should be proud of this amazing ambassador, what a thrill for that guitar player, I'd be crying too

Anyone not in love with Dolly Parton after that😍
Dolly Parton is a true Lady of America . God Bless her and her family . Love from Ireland .
She oozes class. A wonderful human being. She represents the best of us in every way. God love ya Dolly
