Country music icon Dolly Parton released a new quarantine-inspired song, “When Life Is Good Again,” on May 27.

Dolly’s serene voice opens the tune with, “When life is good again, I’ll be a better friend, A bigger person when, Life is good again, More thoughtful than I’ve been, I’ll be so different then, More in the moment when, Life is good again.”

Dolly will debut the song’s new video on May 28 during her interview on the Time 100 Talks. The live virtual event series convenes leaders from different disciplines to spotlight solutions to urgent global problems and encourage cross-disciplinary action.

In addition to recording new music, Dolly has stayed busy during the COVID-19 pandemic by launching her 10-week Goodnight With Dolly book-reading video series via YouTube. She also revealed via Twitter on April 1 that she is donating $1 million to Nashville’s Vanderbilt University Medical Center for COVID-19 research.
