Happy Birthday to Dolly Parton, who turns 80 today — a milestone worthy of celebration. Barry Gibb and Dolly have known each other for many years, connected by mutual respect, friendship, and a shared devotion to songwriting that transcends genre. Here’s a beautiful bit of music history: long before eras and labels divided styles, artists recognized great songs wherever they found them. Dolly’s early writing resonated far beyond country, just as Barry’s melodies crossed borders and generations. That kind of admiration — artists lifting one another’s work and spirit — is how timeless music is made. So today, we celebrate Barry Gibb and Dolly Parton — two writers, two voices, two legacies that continue to inspire across decades. Happy birthday, Dolly — and happy birthday to everyone who believes great songs never belong to just one time, place, or voice.
HAPPY 80TH BIRTHDAY, DOLLY PARTON — A LIFE THAT PROVED GREAT SONGS KNOW NO BOUNDARIES...
