They give it a neat twist, and are able to dust off the timeless classic and give it a Pentatonix touch. They showcase a tremendous deal of talent and good chemistry together.

The Verdict

Pentatonix proves yet again that they can do no wrong with anything they sing or cover. The addition of Dolly Parton helps elevate “Jolene” to a higher level, and they prove that it is possible for heaven to be a place on earth. Their a cappella rendition earns five out of five stars.

Their version of “Jolene” is available on Amazon and on iTunes.
