Kacey Musgraves performs in Boston and covers Dolly Parton’s “Here You Come Again” during the show. Both outlets report that Musgraves also dedicates another song, “Rainbow,” to Parton, framing the moment as a tribute to the late country icon.
Billboard includes Musgraves’ remarks about Parton, describing her as someone who looks out for others and for the underdog, even when it is difficult and does not directly benefit her career. Rolling Stone similarly notes the connection between Parton and “Rainbow,” stating that Parton serves as the inspiration behind the song.
Across the two reports, the common focus is the live tribute: Musgraves covers “Here You Come Again” and publicly acknowledges Parton’s influence and character during her Boston performance. The outlets mainly differ in how much they quote or paraphrase her onstage explanation.
