- 0:00Speaker 1: Direct from Hollywood with Ryan Seacrest.
- 0:03Speaker 2: The words iconic and legend get tossed around a lot,
- 0:06Speaker 2: but the world lost a woman who truly defined both
- 0:09Speaker 2: when Dolly Parton passed away last week.
- 0:11Speaker 3: She was one of one and one of the most
- 0:14Speaker 3: universally loved and appreciated entertainers.
- 0:17Speaker 1: Yeah, she spoke to everybody.
- 0:19Speaker 2: And her contributions to music can't be summed up, but
- 0:21Speaker 2: her songs... I Will Always Love You, Jolene, 9 to 5,
- 0:25Speaker 2: will live forever. And thankfully, we'll be getting more new music,
- 0:28Speaker 2: including at least one track that she absolutely loved, but
- 0:31Speaker 2: not for quite some time.
- 0:32Speaker 3: Yeah, so Dolly recorded a secret song back in 2015
- 0:36Speaker 3: and literally buried it in a chestnut box below her
- 0:39Speaker 3: Dollywood Dream More Resort and Spa.
- 0:42Speaker 4: And the plan is to dig it up and open
- 0:44Speaker 4: it on January 19th, 2046, which will be Dolly's 100th
- 0:49Speaker 4: birthday and Close to the Park's 30th anniversary.
- 0:53Speaker 2: The song is fittingly called My Place in History, and
- 0:55Speaker 2: apparently only Dolly knows its melody and content, but she
- 0:58Speaker 2: publicly stated, it's not a throwaway track. It's a really
- 1:02Speaker 2: good song, so she hopes it survives and people get
- 1:04Speaker 2: to hear it one day. And safe to say, however
- 1:06Speaker 2: the song goes, Dolly's place in history is cemented as
- 1:10Speaker 2: one of the greatest of all time.
- 1:12Speaker 1: That's direct from Hollywood.
