True story, James. One of 12 children, she grew up in poverty, but in a loving family. She gives back in so many ways. Dolly is an angel.
I live about an hour away from Pigeon Forge/Dollywood I'm in Johnson City Tennessee. She does give back to the community God bless her I'm so happy we still have Dolly
The coat was actually very beautiful. Here it is in the Country Music Hall of Fame: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolly_Parton%27s_Coat_of_Many_Colors#/media/File:Coat_of_Many_Colors_coat.jpg
@@lipby Wow It's very beautiful Thank you for sharing this I've gotta show my grandma
@@lipby Thank you!
@@thatgardeninggirl2864 Me too! Across the other side of the world in Australia we can still see her precious glow from here.
Pure talent. No machines, no synthesizers just talent. You didn’t have it, you didn’t make it. Dolly wrote I Will Always Love You and had a hit with it before Whitney Houston was born.
Dolly wrote it:) Both versions are great...just different:))) Love that
And she wrote "Joline" the same day
I was born the year Dolly released that song and Whitney was a star when I was still a child in elementary school, so she was definitely born several years before Dolly released it. Still, Dolly is amazing and an icon beyond definition.
Dolly Parton is a legend but probably one of the sweetest people ever.
My mother used to get really upset when she heard this song. Her mother used to get given coats by relatives, she used to unpick them and cut them down to make coats for the kids. My granny was a lovely lady, my grandad was a drinker and gambler, my tiny granny was a proper lady and far too good for him. Dolly sings this beautifully x
Awwww… My Baby girl cried every time she heard it.. She felt so sorry for the little girl. But loved the way her Mama loved her❤️❤️
Tell your little girl not to feel sorry for Dolly because Dolly didn't feel sorry for herself. That was all she knew and actually she was proud as a peacock to wear a coat to school that her mother had made for her because that made it extra special. I was raised very similar to the way Dolly was raised. We were as poor as church mice but what we did not want was for ANYONE to feel sorry for us and I'm pretty sure Dolly and her family would not want anyone to feel sorry for them either. They were "rich as could be" so if anything, people should envy her. Maybe when your child gets older she will understand that there is no reason to feel sorry for the little girl that was Dolly.
@@maryannanderson2213 Actually she cried because of the people making fun of her coat..She knew her Mama loved her ; and she was so proud of that coat ❤️My child is an adult now…We too were poor…Blessings 🙏🏼
My Momma introduced this song, and Dolly Parton, to me when I was a young girl. The youngest of 6, I had my share of hand me downs. She told me how she had to wear her older brother's coat to school in high school. But her widowed Mother always filled their simple home with love. I brought up our children to not care about the "it" thing. It varies from generation to generation. Your worth comes from within not without. Dolly told a story which stands the test of time. God bless her. Thank you for sharing young man. 😽💋🎶
Love your facial expressions when you are obviously into a song!

Child you just had a growing up moment.. proud of you.
Enjoy the stories of people's lives..
Dolly Parton is a country legend who has been recording & writing songs since the 60's. Love her storytelling songs the most like "Jolene" & "Coat Of Many Colors". She has had so many hits such as "I Will Always Love You", "Yellow Roses", "My Tennessee Mountain Home", "9 To 5", "Here You Come Again" etc. She did a lot of great duets with Kenny Rogers & Porter Wagoner. She also collaborated with Linda Ronstadt & Emmylou Harris & they released a few "Trio" albums.
I LOVE the Dolly, Linda, & Emmylou songs, Dagmar! I've still got my LP albums of them from way back when.
Beautiful story..Beautiful song.💜
As the song mentions, this is a reference to Joseph’s coat of many colors from Genesis 37.
One if her prettiest songs is Love is like a butterfly.
I watched a video on Netflix about Dolly. She said that she is actually prouder of being a songwriter than a performer. She has written 3,000 + songs so far…
So happy to see this video. I'm bawling my eyes out. I lost my mom almost 3 months ago, and this really really hits home ❤️
Sorry for your loss. Hang in there. I lost my mom two years ago.
I read underneath another reaction to this song after this song came out where one lady’s mother made her and her sister a coat of many colors out of scraps she had and all the mothers in town called for her to make their daughters one and she politely declined. Saying she specifically made them just for her girls. ❤️ you must watch the movie!
I ♥️ this channel! REAL reactions I love to see all you young people discover & love great music (I wish my sons ages 22,19,18) WOULD listen to ALL Music like this. We actually live about an hour & 20 min away from
Dollywood/Pigeon Forge in Johnson City TN it's a beautiful place. As a matter of fact two of my sons are going there for the weekend in 3 weeks I hope all of you guys have a great Memorial Day ps my grandmother is 81 years old 1 of 5 she's from coal mining country in the Appalachian mountains in Virginia. Our family was dirt poor Sometimes she had no shoes they didn't have enough food. She was dirt poor My mamaw she is my ❤️ and it is is one of her favorite songs
My dad was and still is a country music fan. He would blare the stereo with Dolly, Glenn Campbell, Johnny Cash, etc. We didn't always love it then but I have grown to really appreciate how much of this stuff I know by heart and have fallen in love with all these years later.
Great reaction to a great song. ❤❤❤❤❤
Such an awesome, heartfelt reaction!
If you ever get a chance you really should visit Dollywood in Sevierville, Tennessee and make sure to go to the museum there to learn all about Dolly. We'd love to have you come visit East TN, one of the friendliest places on Earth. Dolly has given back so much to this state and the museum tells about this as well as showing her history through writings, instruments, costumes, pictures etc.
Love Dollly. She sings about her life. Such a sweet lady. 💕
This song always brings a tear to my eye. Hearing the love in her beautiful melodic voice.
👏LOVED your reaction to one of my fav Dolly songs!👏 She has it all - lyrical genius, gorgeous pure voice, her storytelling, a great sense of humour, beauty and brains, yet despite 50+yrs of fame, she has remained humble and incredibly kind 💖 She stayed true to her roots - grew up dirt poor in a shack in Tennessee. She's an astute businesswoman but has always used her fame to help others - check out her charity 'Imagination Library' - she gives millions of books a year to disadvantaged kids worldwide.
*Check out* 'Down From Dover' - she had to fight to get the song on her album because it was deemed too 'controversial' - but she won! Such a relatable song, #LEGEND #GlobalTreasure
Dolly is fabulous. A bright light. You would like her collaborations with Linda Ronstadt, and Emmy Lou Harris as "Trio." There is a segment from a David Letterman show where they sang their version of Neil Young's "After the Gold Rush." No tricks just beautiful voices and perfect harmony.
Beautiful reaction to a beautiful lady singing a beautiful song
I love that Dolly's character in the song doesn't burst into tears at the other kids' teasing, as most little girls would understandably do -- she stands her ground and calmly explains to them why they're COMPLETELY *WRONG.* Also, ironically a handcrafted crazy quilt coat like that would probably be very fashionable today. And lastly, James, here's a link to another ballad sung by Dolly called "Jolene", backed up the acappella group Pentatonix. Together they won a Grammy for this performance, and if you watch it you'll immediately understand why! :D

Thank goodness music is timeless! Love this song and your reaction!
Beautiful song with a beautiful message. Note that she had the strength of character to persist in her belief in her mother’s gift of love, even as the other kids laughed.
Did I always have that same level of strength and belief when other kids would make fun of me for not having the more expensive brand clothes growing up (I was one of eight, so we often had hand-me-downs, or store brands like Sears)?
No, I didn’t (even though I loved my parents and family).
Dolly’s message here really is deep, and puts such a wonderful focus on what is truly important. I wonder how many people this song has helped to persist in challenging circumstances, despite such a materialistic world all around us. It’s such a beautiful anthem of love and appreciation for a mother’s love.
Yes, she is beautiful, isn't she? I'm not sure when this concert was given, but _Coat of Many Colors_ was released in 1968, 1 year after her career-altering debut on the highly-successful Porter Wagoner Show (a collaboration that lasted 7 years), and 2 years after she was wed to Carl Dean, to whom she is still married 56 years later! I was in the 3rd grade in a small KY classroom the year this song hit the airwaves, when the primary meaning of the iconic phrase to most people was still the Bible story and not the country song. Dolly was looked at somewhat askance back in those days by many people in the Bible belt, with her glamorous hair, make-up and clothing, but mostly because of her figure. Many folks, who ought to have known better than to engage in idle gossip and speculation, theorized just exactly how someone who looked like her was climbing the country music charts so successfully. Well, all those old naysayers and scolds (any who are left) have been proven wrong. Her sense of style, flair and _panache_ isn't scandalous. Never was (or at least, never should have been). Dolly is the salt of the earth, as her songs such as this one make abundantly clear. The lady is a national treasure, who has given back in abundance.
So well written
What did her figure have to do with the amount of talent she had? People can be so stupid sometimes. Some of those who thought that way were probably jealous of her.
@@MsAppassionata Or lusting after her, and transferring those sinful thoughts onto her. Remember it was the 60s, and not the hippy dippy 60s in the country genre, but the Mad Men 60s, where everyone in that office 'knew' what kind of woman Joan (Christina Hendricks) was, because of her upper torso.
So, the country music business (or any genre) wasn't always the friendliest place for beautiful women. And you know what? All that makes me respect her that much more. The lady paid some dues, and then some, and still came through it all with grace, not to mention being universally regarded and respected. I don't know anyone, in any genre, walk of life, geographic area, whatever, who doesn't love Dolly. She's the best!
Such a beautiful song! You can't go wrong with any song she sings! Great reaction!
Neither Dolly nor her mother knew for certain what happened to the original coat. They assumed it was passed down, till it wore out or was taken apart & repurposed. After the success of the song, Dolly's mother made a "near duplicate", from her memory & the school pic Dolly had taken in it (which only shows the front, upper area of the coat). The replica is on display in the museum at Dollywood, along with a fancier version from the movie.
A lot of good stuff from Dolly. Thanks for the song and your reaction.
Loved watching you in amazing wonder. It was clear you were thoroughly enjoying the story. I love that you hold nothing back and you're always willing to react to genres you wouldn't normally be interested in. Keep up the good work!
You seem to be feeling better...I truly hope you are!
Puppy Love - Dolly Parton 1959 (When she is 13 years old)
Joshua - Dolly Parton 1971
"Apple Jack" (With Emmylou Harris & Linda Ronstad) - Dolly Parton 1977
You have the most amazing Grandparents! 💘
I remember Dolly telling that story before I heard the song. She was from a big family and she truly didn’t know how poor they were. She has always had a beautiful heart, she only owns Dollywood to supply poor kids with books and things they need. Last year she sent them 3 million books. She has also written award winning songs for other artists. I love her singing Apple Jack because that was a part of her childhood. Thank you.
Dolly Parton has written thousands of songs. Many of them about her life. “Jolene” is a banger 🔥☮️❤️🎸
One is only poor if you choose to be! What a way of living. Life is mostly up to us. What a lady. And soo wise! Good to see you again. Its bn a bit. Dan.-5/30/22
She is the best! You can’t go wrong with any song she wrote and sings! The world has so much music you have to try many of the A cappella groups! You could listen for years and never be able to appreciate it all!
Always make me so happy to see you come alive with the great music of my decades on this earth. Dolly is in a league of her own, with her talent, but her mind, her caring heart, yet strong and not one to back down. She is incredible. This is still one of my favorite Dolly songs.
The movie you are talking about was a made for TV movie that came out in 2015 called 'Dolly Parton's Coat of Many Colors'. It told the true story of her childhood with a pretty good cast. There was also a sequel called 'Dolly Parton's Christmas of Many Colors'. Both worth watching if you love Dolly.
This the beauty of a child's heart laid bare: the purity of their love and appreciation for a parent when they know that life is hard right now.
Hey James, you continue to impress and amaze me due to your very open mind and your appreciation for music . I feel like you're such a special soul, an old soul that just has so much love in his heart. Praying for you my friend. You are doing very well with youtube and just keep doing it. No matter what anyone says or thinks. You're a natural and so we keep watching you and supporting you thru good times and bad times.
Thanks JB, another great honest reaction. And I love reading the comments of your other subscribers.
I've never been a Dolly fan, but it's a true story, her mom made her a coat and she got teased about it. I'm only listening to it because you chose it. Awwww don't feel dumb or stupid, at least you're listening to our music now and you're enjoying it, try to pass it our music to future generations, that would mean the world to us older listeners.
Im 38 and was blessed enough to grow up with my dad that played music from all genres from the 60s to the 90s. At least you are experiencing it all now. Your still young and you have time to explore every genre ☺️
Glad you did this reaction and you are open to different types of music. Happy you are an avid reader and strongly encourage that. I can no longer read as I once could and makes me feel good when people who can see well enough to read take advantage and do read. Thanks for the reaction
The sound should be fixed , sorry
Some story songs: Carrol County Accident. Reuben James. Jody and the Kid. Darby’s Castle. A lot of Kris Kristofferson songs tell stories. The Dutchman. The Band Played Waltzing Matilda. No Man’s Land.
The movie is great! And there is a sequel to the movie as well! ❤️
I love your reactions to Dolly Parton's "Coat of Many Colors""❤
Great man you are. Took your coat off.
Hi, James! 🙋Hope your doing great! God bless.
Well, I couldn't find my favorite ad from The Porter Wagoner Show circa 1968, where Dolly assures us that Duz fer Dishes is the best thing ever as there's a free glass goblet in every box (to supplement our collections of drinking glasses that were formerly Bama jelly jars), BUT...as per the JB vintage commercial theme, here's one where Dolly and Porter are hawking Breeze detergent in 1972. Dolly's adorable in it and her backcombed flip is a wonder to behold. ua-cam.com/video/nUSFYBfmOiQD/v-deo.html
You might want to listen to Dolly Parton singing "Me and little Andy"❤
Great reaction 😁 I can't stop smiling
Wow, I loved this JB, know check out Dollys ME AND LITTLE ANDY! IT'S JUST SAD! I always cry Still whenever I feel nostalgic, I was only 8 years old when this song came out "
she and Elvis grew up dirt poor...both were very humble people, thankful for what they received, and happy to share what they had with others. Elvis wanted to record(cover) her song: I will always love you...col. parker insisted on Elvis getting pub. rights, she said no..she said in an interview she actually cried the day she had to turn Elvis down, she said she would have loved to hear Elvis do the song!
I am blessed to know someone like you that has learned early how to appreciate things of the past whether music or books. I myself am a 4 time published author. I wrote the family series "Johnny's World" about growing up, making friends, respecting elders and just plain living. The books are available from Amazon. They are easy to read and I hope you might get them and share them!
The old stuff is just way better ❤️❤️❤️
What's up James? Great reaction! God Bless!
And think of how many you now share our older music with. There's good music out there these days as well but not ti especially are different now. Who'd od thout me being 59 years old would love tracks by artists such as Tom Macdonald, Upchurch, NF and many others...?
Please check out another one of Dolly's song - Me and Little Andy. Talk about a story! Who-wee, grab some Kleenex first though, it's a rough one but so beautifully told by Miss Dolly.
Love me some Dolly.....good job bro, love your reactions
I so strongly resonate with this song literally on every level!!! To the point of being bullied by my peers and others I never felt protected physically, emotionally, even from my own mother!!!! 😭💔🙏🙏💔💔💔😱😭😭😭
I love your reactions!!! You have a heart of gold and it shows so very much in your face and words!!!! ❤️
Hi I hope you see this message! I wanted to let you know to check your local PBS station tomorrow night (Friday 6/3/22 around 9:00 pm) to see if Concert for George will be airing in your area. This is the best concert I have ever seen. It is a tribute to George Harrision (from the Beatles) on the one year anniversary of his passing, back in 2002)
Great to see you back James amazing reaction and your grandma has great taste dolly was so poor growing up and she helps lots of charities take care sending love and prayers from England x x
one of the reasons I sub'd....I think you REALLY enjoy, Dolly, Elvis, etc...nowadays ...just pump out songs...who cares if it's TALENT...now things sell that have ABSOLUTELY no WORTH or human VALUE...yea for the 'good old days'.
there is a beautiful song by dani and lizzi called "dancing in the sky" they like dolly write about true events in their lives amazing
Glad to see you back little cousin; hope all is well with you and your family.
She has written over 3,000 songs................
Love that u can realize. Awesome.
It's a generational thing, bro. My pops used to try to get me to listen to his music. I didn't want to hear it. Now, it makes up the majority of my Spotify Playlist.
Dolly is a true treasure. No matter your age, race, or religion, you just have to love her.
James you should check out her Movie “Coats Of Many Colors” that movie was good, this is a true story 😊
She's an American treasure
I LOVE your reaction. Amazing.
Thank you 🙏
This is a true story ❤
Peace, Love!!
Now you are smarter, that's all that counts! Yes, this is real music !!
Loved you face watching this!
LOVE this reaction!
Better since you got the earphones. yeah!
You like to read so you should read the book she wrote with James Patterson “Run Rose Run” she also wrote songs that are on a cd of the same name
This quote by Maya Angelou has been shortened, but I love and try to live by the original. Do the best you can until you know better. Then, when you know better, do better.”
Beautiful reaction! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I just subscribed and went back to the beginning of your videos…have binge watched all day! A couple good one that I didn’t see -“Bad Moon Rising” CCR, “Reuben James “Kenny Rogers, “Good bye Earl” The Chicks (formerly Dixie Chicks). Keep up the good work young man!
You would love the movie ❤️
* * * Check out Dolly's HEARTBREAK EXPRESS !!
Have you reacted to Johnny Cash 'A Boy Named Sue'? if not....you should
I second that suggestion! "A Boy Named Sue" is a classic, hilarious coming-of-age ballad with a great surprise twist. :D
Just to let you know when she said "box of rags" she's taking about scraps of cloth not necessarily old towels.
Another ballad you might like is The Charlie Daniels Band's "The Devil Went Down to Georgia." It's hard-driving country music with phenomenal fiddle and guitar-playing, and the lyrics (chanted by Charlie) are absolutely bad*ss.

If you like songs that tell stories, practically all OLD country songs told stories. Some of what passes for country music now, not so much.
There's sound for me.
React to some Ronnie Milsap ...lost in the 50's tonight...stranger in my house...smokey mountain rain.
Listen to some Lorretta Lynn she also writes her songs about her growing up
Yes it is. They were very poor and they made clothes of rags and old material.
I love the stories.
Hope your doing well.
