Despite being in her late seventies, Dolly, the singer of ‘Jolene,’ doesn’t seem to be slowing down. Rather,

she has declared that she will perform for as long as she can and that she has no intention of retiring.

And why not pursue your passion for it for as long as you can if you’re fortunate enough to find it?

Dolly still sounds amazing, so it appears like age is only a number to her. She keeps performing live

and putting out new songs along with music videos, one of which is for her rendition of ‘Southern Accents.’

YouTube has the official video for her rendition of ‘Southern Accents’ by Tom Petty. The title and lyrics of the song seem like something that Dolly would do,

given that she is a Southern girl, even though she may not have written or performed the song at first.

In the video, Dolly picks up various objects that are strewn all around a house, sits at a piano, and sings while staring longingly at them.

Various video snippets featuring Tom Petty, the song’s original songwriter, play as Dolly sorts through the items.

In addition, the late Tom Petty is connected to a number of the objects that Dolly picks up and others that the camera captures.

There’s a glimpse of a Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers record, and she examines and touches a guitar.

It’s obvious that Dolly paid honor to Tom by commemorating his life and musical contributions in her rendition of ‘Southern Accents.’

Once more, as she frequently does, Dolly absolutely kills this song. She doesn’t sound like a woman in her 70s, and her voice sounds fantastic.
