[Jocasta Clun]

Good LORD

 

[COB]

That tracklist just keeps GOING

 

[Marilyn]

I hope her vocals aren’t too heavily processed and it’s disappointing that Kid Rock is on this but otherwise it’s the musical event of the millennium

 

[Marilyn]

I’ve just realised this is released in NOVEMBER

everybody needs time to emotionally prepare.

Wrecking Ball rock duet with Miley screams the must-not-hear musical event of the year.

 

[jivafox]

The “We Will Rock You” claps on the new single to make it RAWK

 

[RJN]

I’ll probably never listen to this 30 track album, but the list of collaborators just shows how much good will she has built up. Everyone loves her!

 

[Halli]

This ALBAM reminds me so much (I've not heard it yet mind, #tension) of when VH1 was big in the UK and I'd switch over for a few exclusives and Behind the Music's

 

[GNL]

This is out. Lots of Dollyoke versions of your favourite ROCK AND ROLL classics, featuring every act who has ever lifted a guitar.

 

[lolly smitten-downes]

Has it had any reviews above 2*?

I feel sorry for anyone who is PROFESSIONALLY BOUND to listen to all 30+ tracks.

 

[lolly smitten-downes]

It seems to have got 68 on metacritic, somehow

 

[Jark]

her Purple Rain is great honestly. the voice is in quite good condition.

 

[VoRonika]

I skimmed through it earlier. Unsurprisingly, the rootsier stuff fares better than the rest. Her version of You’re No Good for example.

I may never recover from what she does to Heart of Glass though

It's quite upsetting that the duets with both Stevie and Debs are quite rubbish.

Garbage

 

[jivafox]

I haven't even attempted to brave the whole thing (and probably won't!) but her version of "Every Breath You Take" is GORGEOUS.

 

[GNL]

Covering Linda Ronstadt with the other member of Trio is quite a thoughtful touch.

 

[Rowan Tree 🌳]

Ronstans UNITE.

Loving Magic Man with Nancy Wilson too.

Yas Dolly.

 

[jivafox]

 

[GALA]

She is a force.

Heard clips and it was like one of those extended adverts for compilations you had to phone a number to order.

 

[Jark]

and with vastly better numbers than many of the current girls. amazing.

 

[POP!]

Ended up at #3 in the US with 128k. Drake nabbed #1

 

[Marilyn]

#3 is less frustrating than #2 I guess, and a fantastic result any way you look at it

As for the actual content of the album, I'll need to give it a few more spins to gather my thoughts and that may take several months

 

[jivafox]

A deluxe edition out today for Dolly’s birthday, including a version of Jolene with Måneskin, and covers of Hit Me With Your Best Shot and Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This).

 

[GNL]

Oh good, the album was a bit short.
