Country music legend Dolly Parton left behind one final musical surprise for her fans but they will have to wait nearly two decades to hear it. Titled My Place in History, the unreleased song was recorded years ago and placed inside a time capsule at Dollywood’s DreamMore Resort in Tennessee. Parton had planned for the track to be unveiled on what would have been her 100th birthday in 2046.

Dolly Parton leaves behind a music legacy

The song has gained renewed attention following Parton’s death at the age of 80. The country icon had deliberately designed the project as a musical time capsule, ensuring that one of her final creative works would be discovered by a future generation rather than released immediately. Her goddaughter Miley Cyrus penned a heartfelt note.
