Artist: Dolly Parton

Video: 'The Sacrifice'

Why We Love It: There is perhaps no song on Dolly's latest album, 'Better Day,' that is more personal than 'The Sacrifice.' "Early on in my career, I wanted to have things, I wanted to travel and I wanted to be loved. I wanted to be on stage, and I wanted to have money ... coming from someone who knew what it was like to be without it," the country legend tells The Boot. "I thought, 'If I am gonna get to where I really want to go, I'm going to have to be willing to make any sacrifice it takes.' I certainly paid my dues. I seem like a happy person, and I am. I have a happy heart. But I've been through heartache, I've known my sorrows. I paid major prices for my career, but I wouldn't trade it for nothing. It's been worth the sacrifice."

In her brand-new video for the poignant song, the incomparable Dolly shows clips from her Better Day tour, along with vintage video from her early years in the country scene. Watch 'The Sacrifice' below.
