Before she became known as a wildly successful singer, songwriter, humanitarian, multi-instrumentalist, producer, author, and so on, Dolly Parton wrote songs for other artists. But that gave her plenty of practice perfecting her craft, allowing her to compose the immortal “Jolene.”

“Jolene” has such a firm, near-cult following, it’s gotten its own challenge, fueled by Parton herself. Released on October 15, 1973, “Jolene” continues to get heads bopping and women side-eyeing the flirtatious redhead. In 2004, the song made it onto Rolling Stone‘s list of “the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.” Though the song itself did not win a Grammy, it earned Parton a Grammy for the Best Country Duo/Group Performance.

TwinsthenewTrend put together a YouTube channel that’s perfect for reacting to iconic tracks like “Jolene.” She’s got smooth, flawless skin, fiery hair, and vibrant green eyes, but it’s Dolly Parton’s lyrics and instrumentation that have Tim and Fred Williams won over.

This isn’t the twins’ first time tackling songs and giving fun reactions. In fact, they’ve gained enough traction to be recognized by People. As of July 1, they have 107k subscribers and their “Jolene” reaction, released on June 17, has over 948k views. Nerdist reports that those numbers are quickly rising, and it’s easy to understand why.
