This song (and movie) was the first that a lot of people outside of country music fans had heard of the well-established Dolly Parton. The movie itself was the brainchild of co-star Jane Fonda, but Dolly's song (and acting) propelled the working-class movie to another level. It was a huge crossover hit - one of the biggest of 1980 - and remains a pop-country classic to this day.
