Dolly and Norah - the People's Choice

October 27, 2004

Dolly Parton and Norah Jones have been nominated for a 31st Annual People's Choice Award in the music "Favorite Combined Forces" category for their duet of Dolly's Grass is Blue - a song Jones covered on the tribute album Just Because I'm a Woman. Their random list of competitors includes Christina Aguilera, Missy Elliot and Lil' Kim for their remake of Carwash; the Black Eyed Peas and Justin Timberlake for Where is the Love; Lil' John and Usher for Yeah; and Britney Spears and Madonna for Me Against the Music. Jones is also up for Favorite Female Singer. For the first time, voting for the awards (which used to be decided by Gallup Poll), is open to the public via the People's Choice web site. Vote Dolly!

Congratulations!!!

2 wonderful singers
2 wonderful women

P.S.

I think Creepin' In by Norah and Dolly should have at least got an honorable mention!!!

I saw a Norah Jones concert on TV last night and she sang a song called "Loretta" with Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. It was BEAUTIFUL. I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a hold of a copy?

I'm not a registered user, but if you want to post this:

The song (and the entire concert that Ann saw) will be available on the Norah Jones Live in 2004 DVD, which is set for Nov 16 release on Blue Note. "Loretta" was written by Townes Van Zandt, by the way .

I think Norah is easily one of the great female singers of today. She deserves everything she gets... Good luck Norah!

So the concert will only be available on DVD, not CD?
