1
Here I was thinking that you were going to turn up in black clad leather now that you're a rock star.
2
I have some of that.
3
I do have some of that and I did bring some with me so I'll be wearing some of that.
4
But I also like the white, you know, in the daytime.
5
It's like why not be a little brighter in the morning and then get darker as the day goes on.
6
So is it only at night that the rock star dolly comes in?
7
No, no, no. I took a ride I'm gonna pay to make a dance Her music is timeless,
8
ageless Violence in the street That is what we are No one in between For more than six decades,
9
Dolly Parton has gifted us so many classics Jolene,
10
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Now comes Rockstar,
11
a 30-song collection featuring nine original tracks and 21 iconic rock anthems.
12
I figure if I'm going to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I'm going to have to earn it.
13
I'm a rock star now!
14
My husband is a huge Rock and Roll fan, so all of the years we've been together, which is 59,
15
he's always blasting Rock and Roll whenever I come home and we get in the car or whatever we're riding around in, he just loves it.
16
Dolly was reluctant to tackle the genre at first, but thankfully changed her mind.
17
I thought, well, you can't be a rock star at 77 years old.
18
Why not?
19
That's what I thought.
20
I thought, well, why not?
21
I've done a lot of things in my life, and most of them have turned out pretty good.
22
I thought, well, why not?
23
Just go for it.
24
And she really does go for it, teaming up with some of the greats.
25
Sting, Sir Elton John, Lizzo, even Paul and Ringo.
26
Yeah!
27
How does it work?
28
Are they on your phone?
29
Did you just ring them up?
30
Yeah, well, I did.
31
I did, like with Paul.
32
I'd met Paul.
33
I knew him.
34
At different times, we'd meet up.
35
And so when I called to ask, I said, I know this is a big ask, and I know you've got a lot going on of your own,
36
but would there be any chance that you might sing on this record?
37
And it'd be great if you played, too.
38
And he said, well, I'd love to.
39
So he did.
40
And then I thought, well, I got Paul.
41
That's his song, you know.
42
And I thought, well, Ringgold.
43
The only one left of the Beatles.
44
And I thought, well, I'm going to call.
45
And he said he'd love to join me.
46
So everybody was very generous, very nice.
47
Not a single soul said no. I came in like a wrecking ball Never get so hard in love Your goddaughter,
48
Miley's there as well.
49
You must love working with her.
50
Well, I love Miley.
51
She's like a piece of my soul.
52
You know, she's my little goddaughter.
53
I knew her even before she was born and I worked with Billy Ray, her dad.
54
We toured together during the time that she was actually conceived.
55
So we were working together and he said, you've got to be her godmother.
56
I said, I'd be honored.
57
The lead single off Dolly's new album is World on Fire.
58
She recently performed it at the Academy of Country Music Awards in Texas.
59
How do we heal this great divide?
60
Do we carry death to try?
61
Liar, liar, the world.
62
What are you talking about?
63
I'm talking about this world as it is today,
64
not just America, but all over the world with people with the hate and the violence people not listening,
65
the great divide, famine, sickness, hate, all of that.
66
How people, while we just seem to insist on just destroying everything that's good and beautiful,
67
instead of trying to make this world a better place, because it's the only world we're going to have.
68
And I just, you know, it's like I thought, well, I mean, we may go to heaven if we're lucky, if we don't blow that up too.
69
It was about all these people that are in a position to help in places of power, and they use it for the wrong reason.
70
I just felt really led to write that song.
71
The global superstar is passionate about changing the world.
72
Her widespread philanthropy includes Dolly Parton's Imagination Library,
73
a free book gifting program devoted to inspiring a love of reading in children everywhere.
74
It's taking off in Australia.
75
Daddy didn't get to go to school because he didn't learn to read and write.
76
But he was so smart with that, what they call good horse sense, street sense.
77
But that's what inspired me to start that program, to really get children to learn to read in their very impressionable years.
78
It's transforming lives in really small towns in Australia, Gilgander in the central west of New South Wales, on isolated rural properties.
79
You know, they might not see other kids for weeks at a time when they're out on these places by themselves.
80
You must be so proud.
81
I am very proud.
82
I'm very proud and I feel very blessed to be part of something that special.
83
Her fans are proud of her and Dolly says she appreciates the ongoing love and affection.
84
I'm an older artist.
85
I've been out there six decades.
86
So I think the fans, their moms, their grandmas, I go all the way back to the grandmas and the moms and their children.
87
So it's kind of like I get it in that respect that I'm someone very familiar.
88
I've been around so long in people's houses, on TV and the radio.
89
It's kind of like a family member.
90
That's how I like to look at it.
91
That they love me because I feel like a part of their family because I've been around so long but it's humbling, but it's a great, great compliment.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
