Dolly Parton has an unreleased song, “My Place in History,” that was written and sealed away in 2015 and will not be heard by the public until 2046, according to multiple Australian outlets. The material is described as part of a long-term arrangement that delays release for decades.
Brisbane Times, The Age, and the Sydney Morning Herald all report the same core details: the song’s title, that it is unreleased, that it was created and sealed in 2015, and that fans must wait until 2046 to hear it. The outlets present the delay as a planned timeline tied to Parton’s “final song” concept, indicating the track is intended to be released much later rather than immediately after creation.
While the outlets differ only minimally in framing, they converge on the central timeline and naming of the track. None of the sources provided additional information about the circumstances of the sealing or how the 2046 release will be handled beyond the stated waiting period.
