Dolly Parton is a musical song writing god.

They played Jolene at 33 1/3 (i think) on Radio 4 last Friday on the news(?)

Reminds me of:

When Kylie first appeared it was suggested that it was Rick Astley sped up. It did sound convincing.

Slow version from the OP sounds as it might if Tim Buckley were singing it.

[Peel] I'm not [i]entirely[/i] sure that's the right speed [/Peel]

Everything sounds better slowed down. I love this, keep meaning to use it to soundtrack a bike video...
