    What Dolly Parton song became a White Stripes concert staple?

    Question #74877. Asked by debjen. (Jan 23 07 10:12 AM)

    '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

    This is about the song "2112" alone, not the rest of the album or anything else Rush-related. The epic more than deserves special attention! Questions 1-10 are mainly about the events in the song, 11-15 about the song itself, and 16-20 are lyrics.
