Galantis & Dolly Parton - "Faith feat. Mr. Probz"
The Iconic Queen of Country Music Dolly Parton teamed up with Galantis, Mr. Probz for a spiritual, uplifting new single, and the gays are here for it!
For Dolly Parton, her new song “Faith” with EDM duo Galantis and Dutch singer Mr. Probz, came in “divine order.”
“They were trying to track me down,” she says by phone, calling from the music video shoot in Franklin, Tennessee. “I guess Linus [Eklöw] and Christian [Karlsson], who are Galantis, had this song and they supposedly both were fans of mine. Somebody said ‘Do you think we can find her? Do you think she’d do it?’”
“She has always been one of our dream collaborators, but we honestly thought getting her on the song was a total longshot,” Eklöw adds, via e-mail.
The pair had been working on the track for some time, wanting to build a song off of John Hiatt’s 1987 song “Have a Little Faith in Me.” When Parton finally got a hold of “Faith,” she knew it was a perfect match.
It’s a fun, uplifting ditty with a bouncing bass beat and a great riff. It’s easy to listen to and smile, and it’s certainly a BOP that the LGBTQ+ community is ready to get behind!
In short order, much like bacon, Dolly makes everything better!
So today, with a side of bacon and two servings of Dolly, I choose Galantis & Dolly Parton’s “Faith feat. Mr. Probz” as my, look up to see the stars, hope is never found in self pity, chin up young person, song for a, light up from the inside, shine on, shake it off, Friday.
