Throwback Thursday: That time Dolly Parton and Cher had a conversation completely in song lyrics
As Dolly Parton and Cher both creep towards 80, there’s no denying that they both look remarkably fantastic and have youthful spirits.
So let’s go back FORTY-FIVE years ago when both had already been stars for more than a decade and they teamed up for a 1978 show that aired on ABC simply titled Cher…Special. It was after the second Sonny & Cher variety series was canceled (viewers didn’t care for the pair divorced) and Cher was back on the top of the charts again with Take Me Home. Dolly, still a few years away from her film debut in Nine to Five, was having her first crossover hit with Here You Come Again.
Both can still sell out arenas, are in terrific shape, still have their voices, and are beloved.
Enjoy this little trip down memory lane.

What a treat Dolly and Cher together!!
What else can a gay boy ask for?
The first clip was cleverly written and both women looked great.
The second clip was a trip. The Tubes? Never heard of them. Smoking on TV. You don’t see that anymore. I would have loved to be in the room when they pitched this song and concept.
Thanks for the post.
