美國鄉村音樂傳奇歌星桃莉芭頓（DollyParton)於美國時間8月25日(2026)在納許維爾安詳離世，享壽80歲。
Dolly Parton於 1946年出生於田納西州的 Locust Ridge，是著名的鄉村歌星與演員，1967-2008年她一共有111首歌進鄉村歌曲排行榜，Dolly在流行歌唱界亦很受歡迎，歷年暢銷歌星排行榜她獲得第251名。
1980年 Dolly Parton 曾與珍芳達一同演出電影《9 to 5》「朝九晚五」，並演唱同名主題曲，此曲在當年11月底並獲得二週排行榜冠軍。而1980年11月底這首歌同時也進入鄉村歌曲排行榜，而且在1981年元月底獲得冠軍，這首歌後來也獲得Grammy鄉村歌曲獎與女歌星獎。按 Dolly Parton的說法：1980年她在拍與珍芳達合演的「朝九晚五」《9 To 5》那部電影的時候感到非常無聊，因為每個鏡頭都要拍很久，中間又沒事可做，對初次拍電影的她而言，在片場呆坐不如寫點東西打發時間，沒想到她因此而寫與電影同名的排行榜冠軍主題曲〈9 To 5〉。
Kenny Rogers 1983 年的《Eyes That See In The Dark》是一張由Bee Gees協助完成的專輯唱片，Barry Gibb 寫了這張唱片大部份的歌，〈Islands In The Stream 〉這首歌原來由Kenny Rogers獨唱，但感覺一直不對，後來終於找來Dolly Parton跟他合唱，使這首歌在鄉村與流行榜都獲冠軍，是當年的年度最佳歌曲。
DollyParton 在『波特·瓦格納秀』( The Porter Wagoner Show)的巡迴巴士後座上寫下了〈五彩斑斕的外套〉(Coat of Many Colors)。這是一首極其真誠的歌曲，無論是開啟你的鄉村之旅，還是僅僅為了重溫經典。畢竟，美國是一個你可以從破爛的外衣起家，最終成為 DollyParton 的地方。
RIP Dolly Parton !

Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers - Islands In The Stream (Original 4K Video)
真正的二重唱 。兩位偶像的經典二重唱，永不過時。
9 To 5
Tumble outta bed and I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
And yawn and stretch and try to come to life
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumping
Out
on the street the traffic's jumping
With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 (mm, yeah)
Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
Barely getting by, it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive
you crazy if you let it (if you let it)
Working 9 to 5, for service and devotion
You would think that I would deserve a fat promotion
Want to move ahead but the boss won't seem to let me
I swear sometimes that
man is out to get me (he's out to get me)
9 to 5
(9 to 5) working, working, working
(9 to 5)
They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter
You're just a step on the boss man's ladder
But you got dreams he'll never take away (he'll never take 'em away)
You're
in the same boat with a lotta your friends
Waiting for the day your ship'll come in (mm)
And the tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your way (I just know it)
Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
Barely getting by, it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive
you crazy if you let it (but you won't let it)
Working 9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you
There's a better life and you think about it, don't you? (You dream about it)
It's a rich man's game no matter
what they call it
And you spend your life putting money in his wallet (putting money in his wallet)
Working 9 to 5, whoa what a way to make a living
Barely getting by, it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough
to drive you crazy if you let it (crazy if you let it)
Working 9 to 5, working 9 to 5
(You dream about it, don't you?)
It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it (mm)
And you spend your life putting money in
his wallet (putting money in his wallet)
just working, working, working
(9 to 5) just working, working, working
(9 to 5) and you think about it don't ya
(9 to 5) yeah, you think about it don't ya
(9 to
5)
