In celebration of her milestone 80th birthday on January 19, 2026, global superstar Dolly Parton just released a powerful new rendition of her classic hit, “Light of a Clear Blue Morning” featuring Lainey Wilson, Miley Cyrus, Queen Latifah, and Reba McEntire on the 50th anniversary of writing the song. The single and music video, which also features David Foster on piano and The Christ Church Choir on backing vocals, is out today, just days before her birthday. This recording reimagines the song with a message of spreading love and hope."

She is loving, giving, and caring. She seems to try and help people in everything she does.

She is the polar opposite of a certain orange coprolite I will not name....
