It has been quite a while back. Stephen would often sing with musical guests, and he has a pretty good voice. He seems comfortable singing, and eager to sing with all sorts of different singers.

But when Dolly was there...Stephen could not sing with her. They would start out, he would just break up, and they would try to start over. They re-started several times. It was the most amazing thing. He was completely overwhelmed by singing with Dolly Parton.

I am not sure they ever got through the song.

She is an absolute icon in so very many ways. And, she IS different...wonderfully different.
