Dolly Parton is arguably one of America’s greatest musical legends, and “Jolene” is one of her top hits. Her performance with the acapella group Pentatonix gave a creative twist on Parton's classic hit.

There have been some great covers of the song. The White Stripes did a live cover of “Jolene” for their album Under Blackpool Lights. But wait until you hear the cover Pentatonix did of the song – with Dolly herself as a feature artist. Pentatonix is an a capella group, and a lot of songs will naturally sound different without backing instruments. Take a listen for yourself and hear how this spin on an old classic gives a fresh interpretation to the song.
