The country song touches on “broken family ties,” according to Parton’s official website. She co-wrote the song with U2 and Irish singer-songwriter Johnny McDavid.
The song was recorded in Nashville in June, making it her final recorded vocal performance before her death.
“I hope you like what I did,” Parton said to Bono in a joint Instagram post in June when the duet was first announced. “Take from what it what you want and what you need, but I love the song, and I think it could be something really special. Thanks for including me in your life. I’ve always loved you and always will.”
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Bono said Parton “sang her heart out” when recording “Torn.” He also expressed how her death has impacted him regarding the song.
“When she was ill, she got out of her bed to sing this song. And you can hear that. And I can’t even listen to it now,” he said.
Parton died of cancer in August at the age of 80.
