'Jolene' Falls Off U.K. Pop Tally
After four weeks on the British pop singles chart, The White Stripes "Jolene," from their DVD Under Blackpool Lights, falls out of the 75-position tally, down from No. 65 the previous week. It had peaked at No. 16, significantly lower than Dolly's original of the song. Dolly's original 1974 recording of the song was a surprise hit in England in 1976, reaching No. 7 on the pop singles chart there, and cover versions by different artists have been released at least half a dozen times over the years, making it one of the U.K.'s biggest "standards." On the independent label singles chart, where The Stripes' version had debuted at No. 1, it slips seven places to No. 18, it was announced on Sunday. http://www.dollymania.net/archive122004.html
