10 Epic Performances From Dolly Parton, the Undisputed Queen of Country Music

In another of her Grand Ole Opry performances, Parton performed "Joshua" while dressed to the nines. She sailed through the upbeat song and proved why she's been a member of the Grand Ole Opry since the '60s.

This first performance of "Jolene" in 1973 on The Porter Wagoner Show shows exactly why it's still Parton's biggest hit to date. It's a song everyone can relate to and a young Dolly poured everything into this and still made it sound effortless.

In what might be the most adorably endearing performance Parton has ever done, she starts by performing her song "Do I Ever Cross Your Mind" in its normal speed. She then speeds it up as if it's a 78 RPM record to sing a piece of it again and flies right through it before saying "thank you." We love it.

This fun song never gets old and we can't get enough of Dolly's glam look in this performance. The song, which was written for Parton's film debut in the movie of the same name, earned Dolly an Oscar nomination and four Grammy nominations.

How much do you love when Parton comes through the crowd and up on stage to meet Rogers so their voices can join together in this beautiful song? Are you crying? We might be. We just can't get enough.

Parton joined Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt to sing Neil Young's "After the Gold Rush" to promote their album Trio II. Their voices complemented each other in the most perfect way for a beautiful performance that you won't soon forget.

OK, we couldn't leave you without giving you another duet between Rogers and Parton. You can't go wrong with these two coming back together on stage to bring back their duet "Islands in the Stream," especially after CMT just named it the best duet of all time.

Country music just always sounds better at the Grand Ole Opry, and this 2007 performance of "Jolene" is no exception. Thirty-four years after Parton first performed this song and she still sounds as flawless as ever.

When Parton performed "I Will Always Love You" on Unplugged at Studio 330, she started by telling the story behind this iconic song. A song made so iconic by Whitney Houston that most people don't even realise it was originally a Dolly song.

Miley Cyrus, Kacey Musgraves, Katy Perry, Maren Morris, and Little Big Town came together with Dolly to perform a medley of her songs at the 2019 Grammy Awards.
