“Lay Your Hands on Dolly”

Dolly Parton and Bon Jovi may seem an unlikely pairing, but the country diva covered the New Jersey arena rockers’ 1988 smash “Lay Your Hands on Me” in 2014, transforming the hard rocking classic into a gospel hymn. Richie Sambora, a former Bon Jovi guitarist, and songwriter, performed the song with Dolly at a number of shows, including the 2014 Glastonbury Festival.
