Great Example

While "Baby, It's Cold Outside" got canceled and some tried rewriting its questionable lyrics for modern ears, I feel like Dolly set a good example by just writing a better song altogether because that's exactly what "Cuddle Up, Cozy Down Christmas" is—playful but unquestionably consentual. LOL. The rest of the album is a nice mix of sacred and secular Christmas songs, and her originals are a welcome addition to any Christmas playlist. I'm glad she included "Something Bigger Than Me," originally featured on the Annabelle's Wish soundtrack several years ago. It's a nice song with a great message. She sets such a great example in so many ways. My favorite moment on the album is on "Holly Jolly Christmas" during her spoken explanation of why she did the album. She says, "I thought why not do a whole album called A Holly Dolly Christmas...so I did." Then she laughs that infectious, iconic laugh of hers. I love how she says that. It just popped into her head, so she did it, just like she does everything. She's a boss. Doing what she wants, as she wants.
