Although their collaborations seemed destined for success every single time, Parton and Wagoner actually fought about Dolly’s career plenty of times. They were both headstrong individuals, and their personalities were simply not compatible with each other. Dolly knew she had to leave eventually. However, Wagoner issued a lawsuit against her for breaching their contract. Despite everything that was going on between them, Dolly sang “I Will Always Love You” to express everything she was feeling.

For plenty of fans, Dolly Parton’s trademark song is none other than “Coat of Many Colors.” However, you might be surprised to hear that it only ever climbed to #4 spot of the charts. During the late 70’s, she came out with what ended up becoming her biggest hit. It was “Jolene,” of course. Apart from reaching the top spot of the charts, it also became a huge hit in the United Kingdom. Isn’t it amazing that this song, which she composed and performed, was called one of the best songs in history by the Rolling Stone?
