Parton's closeness to Hozier's singing voice has even had fans second guessing if there's a deeper conspiracy to it all. In fact, Parton's ability to change her singing voice is one of her performance tricks, with the singer frequently going full-on Alvin and The Chipmunks on stage, impersonating herself as a 45 rpm record played at 78 rpm. Comments on the video question the legitimacy of the video, wondering if it's really Parton singing. In 2011 a YouTube channel posted "Jolene" slowed to 33 revolutions per minute (rpm), and has gained over 11 million views in the time since. Parton slowed down has long impressed the internet, with it simply taking on a whole other voice rather than sounding like her slowed down.
"If you squint your ears, you can kind of hear Hozier, but mostly Dolly Parton mocking Hozier," joked one user. Smith instead tried it with the Parton classic "Jolene" and relatively unknown "Love, You're So Beautiful Tonight" which was reminiscent of Hozier, but according to fans, had too much twang. That time around, the Hozier to Parton conversion worked impressively well and was almost indistinguishable from her real singing voice for some with Here's a Dolly Parton 45 played as a 33! (sorry for my shaky hands and dusty set up) #dollyparton #9to5 #hozier #music ♬ Take Me to Church - HozierĪnother user responded in February, suggesting "9-5" can be turned into a slow ballad-style Hozier track by simply slowing it down on the record player. Smith went on to try out "Take Me To Church" sped up too, but the result wasn't half as effective as the original and fans found it sounded more like Parton's goddaughter Miley Cyrus.ĭespite Smith's attempt at making a Parton cover of "Take Me To Church" not proving as successful, TikTok user did it in February, writing, in a video that can be viewed here, that they "just accidentally discovered that if you play a Hozier 33 as a 45 you get Dolly Parton."
Parton makes Appalachian music, which is deeply influenced by Irish and Scottish music at its core, while Hozier, who is Irish himself, is heavily influenced by folk.
