Lynn, often dubbed as the Queen of Country Music, has been a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1962. In 2012, being 80 years old, she joined Adkins at the Opry to sing “Lead Me On.”

That song was originally released in 1971, and it became a number 1 hit in the U.S. and Canada. Originally, Lynn sang it with Conway Twitty, but during Adkins presentation, he sang Twitty’s part.

Even though “Lead Me On” of Lynn and Twitty is known as one of the duo's most recognizable duets, the 2013 version of Adkins and Lynn captured a lot of attention.

A RECENT ALBUM

Lynn, now 86 years old, suffered a stroke more than a year ago, so she had to delay her new studio LP titled “Wouldn’t It Be Great.” Rolling Stone reported that the release date is September 28, 2018.

THE LAST SON SHE WROTE FOR HER HUSBAND

Lynn recently revealed that the last song she wrote for her husband, Oliver “Doolittle” is also called “Wouldn’t It Be Great.”

"Wouldn't it be fine if you could say you love me just one time / With a sober mind / Wouldn't that be fine / Now wouldn't that be fine / Wouldn't it be great if you could love me first and let the bottle wait / Now wouldn't that be great / Wouldn't that be great?" goes the song.
