That’s one way to explain selling 100 million albums or so. Another is that Rogers—handsome, genial, husky-voiced and bushy-bearded—was just the kind of guy people liked to listen to and look at, a natural entertainer who split the difference between the earthiness of country and the sophistication of pop and adult contemporary. Someone for that eight-to-80 demographic. By the time he passed—on 20 March 2020, at age 81—he’d been recording for more than 60 years. Born in 1938 and raised one of eight kids in a Houston housing project, Rogers had his musical epiphany at 12, watching Ray Charles live—it seemed cool, he thought, to have everyone clap when you sang and laugh when you talked. He started his first band, the Scholars, in high school, with a guitar bought using busboy tips. (The name was aspirational, Rogers said later—they were C students at best.) After stints playing upright bass in a jazz trio and folk-pop with The New Christy Minstrels, Rogers formed The First Edition, whose biggest tracks—most notably “Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)”, which you’d probably recognise from its use in The Big Lebowski—mixed light psychedelia with country and R&B. By the end of the band’s run, Rogers was scraping by as a pitchman for a home guitar course and closing in on 40. Enter “Lucille”, which Rogers’ manager figured would either be laughed off as a novelty or take over country music. You know how that one broke. He went on to become one of country music’s first and biggest mainstream superstars, an arena-packing presence who paved the way for artists such as Shania Twain and Garth Brooks, reshaping our sense of what country was and how it figured into the pop landscape. His biggest songs—“The Gambler”, “Lady”, the Dolly Parton duet “Islands in the Stream”—remain the stock-in-trade of karaoke nights and television ads, the kind of music one learns not by discovery but by cultural osmosis. (That Rogers also figured out how to act—including starring in a series of made-for-TV movies based on “The Gambler”—didn’t hurt; he said all he had to do was be himself in different clothes.) Mellow as the music is, and modest as he was about it, Rogers also broke down boundaries and cleared the way for new combinations of sounds and styles—a chance he took on his inspiration and won. A gamble, you could say. - Apple MusicDolly PartonA powerful singer-songwriter and electric performer, Dolly Parton was one of country music’s most beloved figures. Born to an impoverished family in Tennessee in 1946 (in humble upbringings that would inspire such songs as “Coat of Many Colors”), she started singing in church, received a guitar at age eight and performed on regional radio programmes as a kid. She moved to Nashville the day after her high school graduation in 1964 and quickly signed with Monument Records. Her first charting single, 1966’s “Dumb Blonde”, introduced her as a fun-loving but independent woman confident enough to flout stereotypes and command her own destiny. In the late ’60s, Parton enjoyed huge success as a regular on Porter Wagoner’s weekly TV show and through a long string of collaborative hits. But she became even more popular as a solo artist, particularly with a pair of 1974 hits: the aching “I Will Always Love You”—which Parton wrote about needing to strike out on her own without Wagoner—and the timeless “Jolene”, with its poignant minor-key mode and emotional intensity. In 1981, Parton landed her first pop No. 1 hit, the blue-collar anthem “9 to 5”, and co-starred in the comedy film of the same name. She then had the biggest smash of her career in 1983 with “Islands In the Stream”, an easygoing romantic duet with Kenny Rogers. Further collaborations—like her albums with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris, plus cameos on songs by Kesha and Miley Cyrus (her goddaughter)—expanded Parton’s legacy through the end of the 20th century and well into the 21st. Over time, she became involved in endeavours like her namesake Dollywood theme park, a 9 to 5 Broadway musical and the literacy-focused Imagination Library. But Parton’s latter-day work—including a series of stripped-down bluegrass albums and 2023’s Rockstar, a rock ’n’ roll album released upon her Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction—showed that her musical gifts contained multitudes. She passed away in August 2026 at age 80. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart HistoryKenny Rogers1969 02 Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town (Kenny Rogers & The First Edition)1970 08 Something's Burning (Kenny Rogers & The First Edition)1977 01 Lucille -1-1977 39 Daytime Friends -1-1979 42 She Believes In Me -2*-1980 01 Coward Of The County -1-1980 12 Lady -1-1983 28 We've Got Tonight (Kenny Rogers & Sheena Easton) -1-1983 61 Eyes That See In The Dark -1-1983 07 Islands In The Stream (Kenny Rogers & Dolly Parton) -2- MILLIONAIRE1984 92 What About Me?

18 hours ago18 hr very impressive impact for Dolly given her passing was only announced on Tuesday night and a much belated top 40 entry for '9 To 5'!!
18 hours ago18 hr If not for her, we wouldn't have had Buffy the Vampire Slayer on television cos she executive produced it via Sandollar, her production company.
18 hours ago18 hr Author It feels right that this finally has a top 40 peak to its name at least, it's just a shame it's not under better circumstances of course.
18 hours ago18 hr '9 to 5' deservedly a Top 40 hit, even if it took the saddest circumstances to happen.The number of songs to have gone 4 or more times platinum without reaching the Top 40 drops from 13 to 12, for now!

Yet he gets the most satisfaction from taking those creations out on the road, as he told Apple Music in 2025: “Being on tour, there’s no other activity in my life that gives me such a sense of purpose.” Of course, Parker has always contained multitudes. Let’s not forget that he transformed psychedelic rock—and 21st-century pop—in such an impactful way that even Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Kanye couldn’t resist his influence. Parker started Tame Impala in 2007 from his Perth home, experimenting with an arsenal of reverb, phaser, delay and fuzz pedals on his 2010 debut album InnerSpeaker. For 2012’s Lonerism, he loaded up on synths, found inspiration in Todd Rundgren and locked into woozy pop grooves made of both dreams and nightmares. As Parker has looked further inward, his music—and musical circle—has continued to expand outward. By the mid-2020s, he had collaborated with Dua Lipa, Mark Ronson and Lady Gaga. Parker has remained a unique outlet, embracing widescreen funk (2015’s Currents), mid-thirties introspection (2020’s The Slow Rush) and elegiac techno (2025’s “End of Summer”). He’s also proven his pop instincts over and over again, as when he spiked his fatherhood-inspired 2025 album Deadbeat with a breakout earworm in “Dracula”. The song’s later success as a viral remix (featuring BLACKPINK’s JENNIE) and dance trend only confirm that Parker’s work enjoys a long lifespan once he’s done with it—both onstage and off. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History2019 79 Patience -1-2020 59 Breathe Deeper -4-2020 78 Borderline -2-2020 89 Lost In Yesterday -3-2022 56 New Gold (Gorillaz feat.
