Dolly Parton released this video of her singing Queen's We Are The Champions/We Will Rock You while promoting the 2024 Olympics which will be held in Paris. But Dolly, being Dolly, is also apparently making it part of a 4 LP set of her covering some of the most famous rock songs and/or collaborating with famous rock stars. (You just know Miley Cyrus will be in there somewhere.)

I will admit, it feels a bit surreal at the beginning when she is singing solo. But by the time they started showing the clips of past Olympic events and having everyone join in, I was getting into it. By the time they got to We Will Rock You, the smoke from the Canadian wildfires started bothering my eyes. Did I mention that the ragweed pollen is really bad right now too?
