Cross Lines Tower
Cross Lines Tower is a 15-story 175 foot high building that from 1951 to 1969 was the tallest building in Kansas City, Kansas. It is currently the tallest building in downtown and is the city's third tallest building -- only a foot shorter than the other two.
In its glory days in the 1950s and 1960s as a 250-room hotel at 1015 North 7th Street it was frequently used by visiting American Football League teams and was where singer Patsy Cline spent her last night before being killed in a plane crash while flying back to Nashville from Fairfax Airport.
It is currently a retirement home.
The site is the former Wyandotte County, Kansas jail that was built in 1880 and used until 1931. The jail site remained abandoned even though hotel plans were made in 1937. The jail was razed in November 1949 in preparation for the new Town House Hotel designed by Eugene J. Stern which opened August 6, 1951.
It was later renamed Town House Motor Hotel.
On March 3, 1963, Patsy Cline and her enterouage stayed at the hotel during a benefit concert at Memorial Hall (Kansas City, Kansas) for former KCKN/KCMK disc jockey Cactus Jack Call who had died a January car accident..

Fairfax Airport
Fairfax Airport was an airport in Kansas City, Kansas from 1921 until it closed in 1985. It is most famously associated with the construction of most of the B-25 Mitchell bombers.
The airport was directly across the Missouri River from Kansas City Downtown Airport and served as an air strip for plane manufacturers and repairs in the city's Fairfax district, as well as postal delivery. Passenger service in the area was handled by its Missouri sister (although Braniff briefly used it). Its IATA designation was KCK.
The airport was used by Harry Truman when he flew back to Missouri during his Presidency.
It started as a small strip in 1921 for an American Legion air meet. E.J. Sweeney opened a flying school there in 1925, and it was called Sweeney Airport. In 1928 the Wood Brothers Corporation acquired the airport and renamed it Fairfax. In 1931 it was the home of the American-Eagle Lincoln Aircraft company producing the American Eaglet series of aircraft. In 1941 the city of Kansas City, Kansas, purchased the airport for $600,000 from the Kansas City Industrial Land Company (a subsidiary of the Union Pacific Railroad which had trains that ran along its edge) . It was to be used by North American Aviation to build 6,608 of the country's B-25 Mitchell bombers during World War II -- 2/3 of all B-25's built during war. The B-25 plant was acquired by General Motors for the production of Buicks, Oldsmobiles and Pontiacs after World War II. For a short time General Motors also produced license built Republic F-84F Thunderstreaks in this facility.

Grand Ole Opry
The Grand Ole Opry is a weekly country music stage concert in Nashville, Tennessee, that has presented the biggest stars of that genre since 1925. It is also among the longest-running broadcasts in history since its beginnings November 28, 1925, as a one-hour radio "barn dance" on WSM-AM. Dedicated to honoring country music and its history, the Opry showcases a mix of legends and contemporary chart-toppers performing country, bluegrass, folk, gospel, and comedic performances and skits. Considered an American icon, it attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors from around the world and millions of radio and Internet listeners. The Opry, today part of the American landscape, is "the show that made country music famous" and has been called the "home of American music" and "country’s most famous stage."
In the 1930s, the show began hiring professionals and expanded to four hours; and WSM-AM, broadcasting by then with 50,000 watts, made the program a Saturday night musical tradition in nearly 30 states. In 1939, it debuted nationally on NBC Radio. The Opry moved to a permanent home, the Ryman Auditorium, in 1943. As it developed in importance, so did the city of Nashville, which became America's "country music capital".

Hollywood
Hollywood is a district in Los Angeles, California, United States situated west-northwest of downtown Los Angeles. Due to its fame and cultural identity as the historical center of movie studios and movie stars, the word Hollywood is often used as a metonym of American cinema. Today, much of the movie industry has dispersed into surrounding areas such as the Westside neighborhood, and the San Fernando and Santa Clarita Valleys, but significant auxiliary industries, such as editing, effects, props, post-production, and lighting companies remain in Hollywood, as does the backlot of Paramount Pictures.
On February 16, 2005, California Assembly Members Jackie Goldberg and Paul Koretz introduced a bill to require California to keep specific records on Hollywood as if it were independent, although it is not the typical practice of the City of Los Angeles to establish specific boundaries for districts or neighborhoods. For this to be done, the boundaries were defined. The bill was unanimously supported by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and the Los Angeles City Council. Assembly Bill 588 was approved by the Governor of California on August 28, 2006, and now the district of Hollywood has official borders. The border can be loosely described as the area east of West Hollywood, south of Mulholland Drive, Laurel Canyon, Cahuenga Boulevard, and Barham Boulevard, and the cities of Burbank and Glendale, north of Melrose Avenue and west of the Golden State Freeway and Hyperion Avenue. This includes all of Griffith Park and Los Feliz[citation needed] – two areas that were hitherto considered separate from Hollywood by most Angelenos. The population of the district, including Los Feliz, as of the 2000 census was 123,436 and the median household income was $33,409 in 1999.

Hollywood Bowl
The Hollywood Bowl is a modern amphitheater in the Hollywood area of Los Angeles, California, United States that is used primarily for music performances. It is the largest natural amphitheater in the United States, with a seating capacity of nearly 18,000.
The Hollywood Bowl is known for its band shell, a distinctive set of concentric arches that graced the site from 1929 through 2003, before being replaced with a somewhat larger one beginning in the 2004 season. The shell is set against the backdrop of the Hollywood Hills and the famous Hollywood Sign to the Northeast.
The "bowl" refers to the shape of the concave hillside the amphitheater is carved into. The bowl is owned by the County of Los Angeles and is the home of the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, the summer home of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the host of hundreds of musical events each year.
It is located at 2301 North Highland Avenue, north of Hollywood Blvd and the Hollywood & Highland subway station and south of Route 101.
The site of the Hollywood Bowl was chosen in 1919 by William Reed and his son H. Ellis Reed, members of the newly formed Theatre Arts Alliance who were dispatched to find a suitable location for outdoor performances.

KMXV ("Mix 93.3") is a Top 40 (CHR) station based in Kansas City, Missouri, United States. The Wilks Broadcasting outlet operates at 93.3 MHz with an ERP of 100 kW. Its current slogan is "Kansas City's #1 Hit Music Station". It is also one of two Top 40's competing in the Kansas City Metropolitan Area, the other being KCHZ.
The station was sold off by CBS Radio to Wilks Broadcasting in November 2006 as part of a nation-wide reduction of radio stations by CBS.
The station began in 1958 as KCMK-FM (Kansas City, Missouri/Kansas), a classical station, but had several format changes (primarily country) over the next sixteen years. County d.j. Jack Wesley "Cactus Jack" Call was at the station (from KCKN for one week when he was killed on January 25, 1963 in a car crash. Singer Patsy Cline sang at a benefit for him at Memorial Hall (Kansas City, Kansas) on March 3, 1963. She was unable to leave Kansas City the next day because the airport was fogged in and was killed in a plane crash on March 5, 1963 en route from Fairfax Airport to Nashville.

United Kingdom
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (commonly known as the United Kingdom, the UK, or Britain) is a sovereign state located off the north-western coast of continental Europe. The country includes the island of Great Britain, the north-eastern part of the island of Ireland and many smaller islands. Northern Ireland is the only part of the UK that shares a land border with another sovereign state—the Republic of Ireland. Apart from this land border the UK is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the North Sea, the English Channel and the Irish Sea.
The United Kingdom is a unitary state governed under a constitutional monarchy and a parliamentary system, with its seat of government in the capital city of London. It is a country in its own right and consists of four countries: England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. There are three devolved administrations, each with varying powers, based in Belfast, Edinburgh and Cardiff, the capitals of Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Associated with the UK, but not constitutionally part of it, are three Crown Dependencies. The United Kingdom has fourteen overseas territories. These are remnants of the British Empire which, at its height in 1922, encompassed almost a quarter of the world's land surface and was the largest empire in history. British influence can still be observed in the language, culture and legal systems of many of its former territories.

Alma Cogan
Alma Cogan (19 May 1932 – 26 October 1966) was an English singer of traditional pop music in the 1950s and early 1960s. Dubbed "The Girl With the Laugh/Giggle/Chuckle In Her Voice", she was the highest paid British female entertainer of her era. Throughout the mid-1950s, she was the most consistently successful female singer in the UK.
She was born Alma Angela Cohen in Whitechapel, East London, England, of Russian-Romanian Jewish descent. Her father's family, the Kogins, arrived in England from Russia, while her mother’s family were refugees from Romania. Cogan's parents Mark and Fay Cohen had another daughter, the future actress Sandra Caron, four or five years later and Alma Cogan also had a brother. Mark Cohen's work as a haberdasher involved opening stores in different areas; this entailed frequent relocation for his family. One of Cogan's early residences was in Worthing, Sussex – where her family originally lived above her father's shop.
Although Jewish, she attended St Joseph's Convent School in Reading. Her father was a singer but it was Cogan's mother who had show business aspirations for both her daughters – she had named Cogan after silent screen star Alma Taylor – and after eleven-year-old Cogan won the Sussex Queen of Song contest her encouraged mother managed to get her an audition with bandleader Ted Heath, who was impressed but thought Cogan too young.

Ann Wedgeworth
Ann Wedgeworth (born January 21, 1935) is a Tony award winning American actress, best known for her role as Lahoma Vane Lucas on the daytime dramas Another World (1967–70), Somerset (1970–73) as Lana Shields on Three's Company (1979), and as Merleen Eldridge on Evening Shade (1990-94).
She attended the University of Texas and was a childhood friend and high school classmate of Jayne Mansfield.
Wedgeworth joined the cast of Three's Company in 1979. After the departure of Mr. and Mrs. Roper, Wedgeworth somewhat replaced Mrs. Roper's love-starved personality as Lana Shields, an older neighbor who has had three previous husbands. Lana first appears in "Love Thy Neighbor" (season 4, episode 2), when Jack Tripper is talked into being Lana's date. "Mrs. Shields", as Jack originally addresses her, becomes head-over-heels in love with him, and by the end of the episode has moved in next door to Jack, Janet Wood, and Chrissy Snow. However, after a few episodes Lana's appearances became smaller and less frequent. Lana disappeared from the show before mid-season, with no explanation given. It is in the episode "A Black Letter Day" (season 4, episode 13) that we see the last of Lana, as per the episode description, "Lana thinks Jack is having an affair with Janet or Chrissy after she reads an advice column and jumps to conclusions". In one of the episode's last scenes, Lana angrily dumps a drink on Jack's head, and storms out of The Regal Beagle. After this, we never see or hear of Lana again.

Arthur Godfrey
Arthur Morton Godfrey (August 31, 1903 – March 16, 1983) was an American radio and television broadcaster and entertainer who was sometimes introduced by his nickname, The Old Redhead. No television personality of the 1950s enjoyed more clout or fame than Godfrey until a famous on-the-air incident undermined his folksy image and triggered a gradual decline; the then-ubiquitous Godfrey helmed two CBS-TV weekly series and a daily 90-minute television mid-morning show through most of the decade, but by the early 1960s found himself reduced to hosting an occasional TV special.
Arguably the most prominent of the medium's early master commercial pitchmen, he was strongly identified with many of his many sponsors, especially Chesterfield cigarettes and Lipton Tea. After many years for Chesterfield (during which Godfrey came up with the idea and slogan "Buy 'em by the carton"), he severed the relationship during one of his television programs, when his doctors convinced him that his lung cancer was due to smoking. Subsequently, he became a prominent spokesman for anti-smoking education.

Barbara Mandrell
Barbara Ann Mandrell (born December 25, 1948) is an American country music singer best known for a 1970s–1980s series of Top 10 hits and TV shows that helped her become one of country's most successful female vocalists of the 1970s and 1980s. She was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2009.
She was the first performer and is currently one of two females in country music history to win the Country Music Association's "Entertainer of the Year" award twice (the other being Taylor Swift). She also won the Country Music Association's "Female Vocalist of the Year" twice in 1979 and 1981.
Mandrell's first No. 1 hit was 1978's "Sleeping Single in a Double Bed", immediately followed by "(If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don't Want to Be Right" in early 1979. In 1980, "Years" also reached No. 1. She added one more chart topper in each of the next three years. "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" (her signature song), then "'Till You're Gone" and "One of a Kind, Pair of Fools"— all hit number one between 1981 and 1983, a period during which Mandrell also received numerous industry awards and accolades.

Bob Wills
James Robert Wills (March 6, 1905 – May 13, 1975), better known as Bob Wills, was an American Western swing musician, songwriter, and bandleader. Considered by music authorities as the co-founder of Western swing, he was universally known as the King of Western Swing.
Wills formed several bands and played radio stations around the South and West until he formed the Texas Playboys in 1934 with Wills on fiddle, Tommy Duncan on piano and vocals, rhythm guitarist June Whalin, tenor banjoist Johnnie Lee Wills, and Kermit Whalin, who played steel guitar and bass. The band played regularly on a Tulsa, Oklahoma radio station, and added Leon McAuliffe on steel guitar, pianist Al Stricklin, drummer Smokey Dacus, and a horn section that expanded the band's sound. Wills favored jazz-like arrangements and the band found national popularity into the 1940s with such hits as "Steel Guitar Rag", "New San Antonio Rose", "Smoke on the Water", "Stars and Stripes on Iwo Jima", and "New Spanish Two Step".
Wills and the Texas Playboys recorded with several publishers and companies, including Vocalion, Okeh, Columbia, and MGM, frequently moving. In 1950, he had two top ten hits, "Ida Red Likes the Boogie" and "Faded Love", which were his last hits for a decade. Throughout the 1950s, he struggled with poor health and tenuous finances, but continued to perform frequently despite the decline in popularity of his earlier music as rock and roll took over. Wills had a heart attack in 1962 and a second one the next year, which forced him to disband the Playboys although Wills continued to perform solo.

Brenda Lee
Brenda Mae Tarpley (born December 11, 1944), known as Brenda Lee, is an American performer who sang rockabilly, pop and country music, and had 37 US chart hits during the 1960s, a number surpassed only by Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Ray Charles and Connie Francis. She is best known for her 1960 hit "I'm Sorry", and 1958's "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree", a US holiday standard for more than 50 years.
At 4 ft 9 inches tall, she received the nickname Little Miss Dynamite in 1957 after recording the song "Dynamite"; and was one of the earliest pop stars to have a major contemporary international following.
Lee's popularity faded in the late 1960s as her voice matured, but she continued a successful recording career by returning to her roots as a country singer with a string of hits through the 1970s and 1980s. She is a member of the Rock and Roll, Country Music, Rockabilly and Hit Parade Halls of Fame. Lee currently lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
Lee was born Brenda Mae Tarpley in the charity ward of Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. She weighed 4 pounds 11 ounces at birth. She attended grade schools wherever her father found work, primarily in the corridor between Atlanta and Augusta. Her family was poor, living hand-to-mouth; she shared a bed with her two siblings in a series of three-room houses without running water. Life centered on her parents finding work, their extended family, and the Baptist Church, where she sang solos every Sunday.

Carl Perkins
Carl Lee Perkins (April 9, 1932 – January 19, 1998) was an American rockabilly musician who recorded most notably at Sun Records Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, beginning during 1954. His best known song is "Blue Suede Shoes".
According to Charlie Daniels, "Carl Perkins' songs personified the rockabilly era, and Carl Perkins' sound personifies the rockabilly sound more so than anybody involved in it, because he never changed." Perkins' songs were recorded by artists (and friends) as influential as Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and Johnny Cash, which further cemented his place in the history of popular music.
Called "the King of Rockabilly", he was inducted into the Rock and Roll, the Rockabilly, and the Nashville Songwriters Halls of Fame; and was a Grammy Hall of Fame Award recipient.
Perkins was the son of poor sharecroppers, Buck and Louise Perkins (misspelled on his birth certificate as "Perkings") near Tiptonville, Tennessee. He grew up hearing Southern gospel music sung by whites in church, and by black field workers when he started working in the cotton fields at age six. During spring and autumn, the school day would be followed by several hours of work in fields. During the summer, workdays were 12–14 hours, "from can to can't." Carl and his brother Jay together would earn 50 cents a day. With all family members working and not having any credit, there was enough money for beans and potatoes, some tobacco for Carl's father Buck, and occasionally the luxury of a five-cent bag of hard candy.

Cat Power
Charlyn Marie Marshall (born January 21, 1972), also known as Chan Marshall or by her stage name Cat Power, is an American singer/songwriter and occasional actress and model. Cat Power was originally the name of Marshall's first band, but has come to refer to her musical projects with various backing bands. Over a twenty year career she has produced eight studio albums, one live album and two EPs.
A native of Atlanta, Georgia, Marshall loved soul, rock 'n' roll and country music from childhood and began to play guitar in experimental bands with friends in her early adult years. After a move to New York at age 20, Marshall recorded two lo-fi, improvised solo albums, Dear Sir (1995) and Myra Lee (1996), collaborating with Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley. Cat Power then signed to Matador Records to release her third, more focused album, What Would the Community Think? (1996), which united her with notable indie musicians. She followed with Moon Pix (1998) and The Covers Record (2000), receiving notice for her spare, intense originals and radically stripped down takes on folk songs and familiar songs. You Are Free (2003) was more structured indie rock and brought Cat Power wider attention. Marshall followed it up with the one-take performance film, Speaking for Trees (2004), filmed in a forest. The Greatest (2006), in which she worked with classic R&B and gospel musicians, was her most recent collection of original songs, and her best-selling. A second covers collection, Jukebox (2008), with a horn-led backing band, is her most recent album.

Connie Francis
Connie Francis (born Concetta Rosa Maria Franconero; December 12, 1938) is an American pop singer of Italian heritage and the top-charting female vocalist of the 1950s and 1960s. Although her chart success waned in the second half of the 1960s, Francis remained a top concert draw.

Cowboy Copas
Lloyd Estel Copas (July 15, 1913 – March 5, 1963), known by his stage name Cowboy Copas, was an American country music singer popular from the 1940s until his death in the 1963 plane crash that also killed country stars Patsy Cline and Hawkshaw Hawkins. He was a member of the Grand Ole Opry.
Copas was born in 1913 in Jefferson Township in Adams County, Ohio. He began performing locally at age 14, and appeared on WLW-AM and WKRC-AM in Cincinnati during the 1930s. In 1940 he moved to Knoxville, Tennessee, where he performed on WNOX-AM with his band, the Gold Star Rangers.
In 1943, Copas achieved national fame when he replaced Eddy Arnold as a vocalist in the Pee Wee King band and began performing on the Grand Ole Opry. His first solo single, "Filipino Baby", released by King Records in 1946, hit No. 4 on the Billboard country chart and sparked the most successful period of his career.
While continuing to appear on the Opry, Copas recorded several other hits during the late 1940s and early 1950s, including "Signed, Sealed and Delivered", "The Tennessee Waltz", "Tennessee Moon", "Breeze", "I'm Waltzing with Tears in My Eyes", "Candy Kisses", "Hangman's Boogie", and "The Strange Little Girl". Copas' 1952 single, "'Tis Sweet to Be Remembered", reached No. 8 on the Billboard country chart, but it was his final top 40 hit for eight years.

Del Wood
Polly Adelaide Hendricks Hazelwood (February 22, 1920 – October 3, 1989), known professionally as Del Wood, was an American pianist.
Hendricks was born in Nashville, Tennessee. A lifetime resident of Nashville, she was surrounded by the influences of early country music and the remaining vestiges of ragtime, particularly through the guitar pickers. She took up piano at age five, and played ragtime, gospel, and country music. Despite her parent's best efforts to encourage a direction towards classical music, the environment in Nashville, plus the early local programming on radio, convinced her that she wanted to play piano in the honky-tonk style. Her dream goal was the Grand Ole Opry, something she would realize in her early 30s.
Shortening her married name (Adelaide Hazelwood) to something easier to remember (and intentionally non-gender specific), Wood began playing in bands and honky-tonk joints in her 20s. After a decade of building repertoire and reputation, she spent some time as a staff pianist at WLBJ in Bowling Green, Kentucky. It was there that she was heard playing "Down Yonder" among other pieces, which led to a gig with a recording group called Hugh `Baby' Jarrett and his Dixieliners. This led to the first of many recording sessions for the Tennessee Records label starting in 1951. "Down Yonder" soon became a national hit in both the country and pop categories in Billboard record charts, sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc. She is probably the first female country solo instrumentalist to sell a million copies of a record.

The show gave many new music artists their first exposure to national audiences, including Ike and Tina Turner, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, Stevie Wonder, Talking Heads and Simon & Garfunkel. His shows were among the first where blacks and whites performed on the same stage and the live audience seating was desegregated. Singer Paul Anka claimed that Bandstand was responsible for creating a "youth culture." Due to his youthful appearance, Clark was often referred to as "America's oldest teenager".

Don McLean
Donald "Don" McLean (born October 2, 1945, New Rochelle, New York) is an American singer-songwriter. He is most famous for the 1971 album American Pie, containing the renowned songs "American Pie" and "Vincent".
Both McLean's grandfather and father were also named Donald McLean. The Buccis, the family of McLean's mother, Elizabeth, came from Abruzzo in central Italy. They left Italy and settled in Port Chester, New York, at the end of the 19th century. He has other extended family in Los Angeles and Boston.
As a teenager, McLean became interested in folk music, particularly the Weavers' 1955 recording At Carnegie Hall. Childhood asthma meant that McLean missed long periods of school, particularly music lessons, and although he slipped back in his studies, his love of music was allowed to flourish. He often performed shows for family and friends. By age 16 he had bought his first guitar (a Harmony acoustic archtop with a sunburst finish) and begun making contacts in the music business, becoming friends with folk singer Erik Darling, a latter-day member of the Weavers. McLean recorded his first studio sessions (with singer Lisa Kindred) while still in prep school.

Dorothy Kilgallen
Dorothy Mae Kilgallen (July 3, 1913 – November 8, 1965) was an American journalist and television game show panelist. She started her career early as a reporter for the Hearst Corporation's New York Evening Journal after spending only two semesters at The College of New Rochelle in New Rochelle, New York. In 1936, she began her newspaper column, The Voice of Broadway, which was eventually syndicated to over 146 papers. She became a regular panelist on the television game show What's My Line? in 1950.
Kilgallen's columns featured mostly show business news and gossip, but also ventured into other topics like politics and organized crime. She wrote front-page articles on events such as the Sam Sheppard trial and later the John F. Kennedy assassination, becoming the only reporter to interview Jack Ruby, Lee Harvey Oswald's killer, out of earshot of sheriffs' deputies. The circumstances of Kilgallen's death have been the subject of conspiracy theories. Because the cause of her death was officially ruled as "undetermined," and because she openly criticized U.S. government agencies as far back as 1959, some believe that Kilgallen was actually murdered in order to silence her.

Dottie West
Dottie West (October 11, 1932 – September 4, 1991) was an American country music singer and songwriter.

Dottie West's career started in the early 1960s, with her Top 10 hit, "Here Comes My Baby Back Again," which won her the first Grammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance in 1965. In the 1960s, West was one of the few female country singers working in what was then a male-dominated industry, influencing other female country singers like Lynn Anderson, Crystal Gayle, Barbara Mandrell, Dolly Parton, and Tammy Wynette. Throughout the 1960s, West had country hits within the Top 10 and 20.
In the early 1970s, West wrote a popular commercial for the Coca-Cola company, titled "Country Sunshine", which she nearly brought to the top of the charts in 1973. In the late-70s, she teamed up with country-pop superstar, Kenny Rogers for a series of duets, which brought her career in directions it had never gone before, earning Platinum selling albums and No. 1 records for the very first time. Her duet recordings with Rogers, like "Every Time Two Fools Collide," "All I Ever Need Is You," and "What Are We Doin' In Love," eventually became country-music standards. In the mid-1970s, her image and music underwent a major metamorphosis, bringing her to the very peak of her popularity as a solo act, and reaching No. 1 for the very first time on her own in 1980 with "A Lesson in Leavin'".[citation needed]

Born in Tupelo, Mississippi, Presley moved to Memphis, Tennessee, with his family at the age of 13. He began his career there in 1954, working with Sun Records owner Sam Phillips, who wanted to bring the sound of African American music to a wider audience. Accompanied by guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black, Presley was the most important popularizer of rockabilly, an uptempo, backbeat-driven fusion of country and rhythm and blues. RCA Victor acquired his contract in a deal arranged by Colonel Tom Parker, who would manage the singer for over two decades. Presley's first RCA single, "Heartbreak Hotel", released in January 1956, was a number one hit. He became the leading figure of the newly popular sound of rock and roll with a series of network television appearances and chart-topping records. His energized interpretations of songs, many from African American sources, and his uninhibited performance style made him enormously popular—and controversial. In November 1956, he made his film debut in Love Me Tender.

George Jones
George Glenn Jones (born September 12, 1931) is an American country music singer known for his long list of hit records, his distinctive voice and phrasing, and his marriage to Tammy Wynette.
Over the past 20 years, Jones has frequently been referred to as the greatest living country singer. Country music scholar Bill C. Malone writes, "For the two or three minutes consumed by a song, Jones immerses himself so completely in its lyrics, and in the mood it conveys, that the listener can scarcely avoid becoming similarly involved."
Throughout his long career, Jones made headlines often as much for tales of his drinking, stormy relationships with women, and violent rages as for his prolific career of making records and touring. His wild lifestyle led to Jones missing many performances, earning him the nickname "No Show Jones." With the help of his fourth wife, Nancy, he has been sober for over 10 years. Jones has had more than 150 hits during his career, both as a solo artist and in duets with other artists. The shape of his nose and facial features have given Jones the nickname "The Possum." Jones said in an interview that he has chosen to tour only about 60 dates a year.

Hank Williams (/hæŋk wɪljəmz /; September 17, 1923 – January 1, 1953), born Hiram King Williams, was an American singer-songwriter and musician regarded as one of the most important country music artists of all time.

Howard was born on September 8, 1927 in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up on a farm in Kentucky. As a child he listened to the Grand Ole Opry radio show. In later years Howard recalled the personal formative influence of country music:
I was captured by the songs as much as the singer. They grabbed my heart. The reality of country music moved me. Even when I was a kid, I liked the sad songs… songs that talked about true life. I recognized this music as a simple plea. It beckoned me.
Howard completed only nine-years of formal education, though he was an avid reader. When he was 12 years of age Harlan began writing songs, "an enthusiasm fueled by an appetite for books and an ear for a telling phrase.”

Johnny Cash
John R. "Johnny" Cash (February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003), was an American singer-songwriter, actor, and author, who has been called one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century.

This crossover appeal led to Cash being inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Gospel Music Hall of Fame.
Cash was known for his deep, distinctive bass-baritone voice; for the "boom-chicka-boom" sound of his Tennessee Three backing band; for his rebelliousness, coupled with an increasingly somber and humble demeanor; for providing free concerts inside prison walls; and for his dark performance clothing, which earned him the nickname "The Man in Black". He traditionally started his concerts by saying, "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash." and usually following it up with his standard "Folsom Prison Blues".

According to Sony Music Entertainment, he is one of the top 15 best-selling music artists in history. While Iglesias rose to international prominence in the 1970s and 1980s as a performer of romantic ballads, his success has continued on as he entered new musical endeavors. He is the father of singer Enrique Iglesias.
Iglesias was born in Madrid, the eldest son of Dr. Julio Iglesias Puga and María del Rosario de la Cueva y Perignat. Iglesias' father's family was from Galicia, and Iglesias' mother an Andalusian.
In the 1960s, he studied law in Madrid and was a goalkeeper for one of Real Madrid's football teams. On September 22, 1963, he was involved in a car crash, resulting in an injury to his spinal cord. He said, "I had a car accident; [a] very, very strange car accident...I lost control of the car and rolled it, resulting in what they call 'paraparexia,' which is not paraplegia. It's a compression in the [spinal] cord, in the sense of the neck...my spinal cord; and I was very, very ill for three years." His doctors thought he would never walk again; indeed, his legs were left permanently weakened, and they continued to require therapy as of late October 2010. However, slowly, he began recovering his health. To develop and increase the dexterity of his hands, he began playing guitar. When he recovered from his accident, he resumed academic studies and traveled to the United Kingdom to study the English language, first in Ramsgate, then at Bell Educational Trust's Language School in Cambridge.

Lee Ann Womack
Lee Ann Womack (born August 19, 1966 in Jacksonville, Texas, United States) is an American country music singer and songwriter, who is best known for her old fashioned-styled country music songs that often discuss subjects such as cheating and lost love. Her 2000 single, "I Hope You Dance" was a major crossover music hit, reaching #1 on the Billboard Country Chart and the Top 15 of the Billboard Hot 100, becoming her signature song.
Although Lee Ann Womack emerged as a contemporary country artist in 1997 with the release of her first album, her material closely resembled that of Dolly Parton and Tammy Wynette, mixing Womack's music with an old fashioned style, as well as contemporary elements, making her different from her counterparts. Her 2000 release I Hope You Dance, however, was an entirely different sound, using pop music elements instead of traditional country, helping to establish Womack as a pop crossover artist.

Loretta Lynn
Loretta Lynn (born Loretta Webb April 14, 1932), is an American country music singer-songwriter, author and philanthropist. Born in Butcher Hollow, near Paintsville, Kentucky in Johnson County to a coal miner father, Lynn married at 15 years old, was a mother soon after, and moved to Washington with her husband, Oliver Vanetta Lynn, Jr. (1926–1996), nicknamed "Doo". Their marriage was sometimes tumultuous; he had affairs and she was headstrong. Their experiences together became inspiration for her music.
On her 21st birthday, Lynn's husband bought her a $17.00 Harmony guitar. She taught herself to play and when she was 24, on her wedding anniversary, Doo encouraged her to become a singer. She learned the guitar better, started singing at the Delta Grange Hall in Washington State with the Pen Brothers' band, The Westerners, then eventually cut her first record in February, 1960. She became a part of the country music scene in Nashville in the 1960s, and in 1967 charted her first of 16 number-one hits (out of 70 charted songs as a solo artist and a duet partner) that include "Don't Come Home A' Drinkin' (With Lovin' on Your Mind)", "You Ain't Woman Enough", "Fist City", and "Coal Miner's Daughter". She focused on blue collar women's issues with themes of philandering husbands and persistent mistresses, and pushed boundaries in the conservative genre of country music by singing about birth control ("The Pill"), repeated childbirth ("One's on the Way"), double standards for men and women ("Rated "X""), and being widowed by the draft during the Vietnam War ("Dear Uncle Sam"). Country music radio stations often refused to play her songs. Nonetheless, she became known as "The First Lady of Country Music" and continues to be one of the most successful vocalists of all time.

Her box office popularity waned as she reached adolescence, and she left the film industry at the age of 12 to attend high school[clarification needed]. She appeared in a few films of varying quality in her mid-to-late teens, and retired completely from films in 1950 at the age of 22. She was the top box-office draw four years in a row (1935–38) in a Motion Picture Herald poll.

Sissy Spacek
Sissy Spacek (born Mary Elizabeth Spacek; December 25, 1949) is an American actress and singer. She came to international prominence for her role as Carrie White in Brian De Palma's 1976 horror film Carrie (based on the first novel by Stephen King) for which she earned her first Academy Award nomination. She won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role as country star Loretta Lynn in the 1980 film Coal Miner's Daughter. She has been nominated for an Oscar a total of six times, and is also known for her role as Holly Sargis in Terrence Malick's 1973 film Badlands.

Skeeter Davis
Mary Frances Penick (December 30, 1931 – September 19, 2004), better known as Skeeter Davis, was an American country music singer best known for crossover pop music songs of the early 1960s. She started out as part of The Davis Sisters as a teenager in the late 1940s, eventually landing on RCA Records. In the late '50s, she became a solo star. Her best-known hit was the pop classic "The End of the World" in 1963.
One of the first women to achieve major stardom in the country music field as a solo vocalist, she was an acknowledged influence on Tammy Wynette and Dolly Parton and was hailed as an "extraordinary country/pop singer" by The New York Times music critic Robert Palmer.
Davis was the first of seven children born to William and Punzie Penick, in Dry Ridge, Kentucky. Because her grandfather thought that she had a lot of energy for a young child, he nicknamed Mary Frances "Skeeter" (slang for mosquito). In 1947, the Penick family moved to Erlanger, Kentucky, where Skeeter met Betty Jack Davis and Wanda Rose Rader at Dixie Heights High School, becoming instant friends. They sang together through much of high school, and at Decoursey Baptist Church, where Wanda's father was the pastor. They formed a group known as the Davis Sisters (although they were unrelated), and started singing on Detroit radio station WJR's program Barnyard Frolics. Wanda was unable to travel, so Skeeter & B.J. began to make a name as a duet. Eventually, the duo were signed by RCA Records in 1951 (earlier demo recordings were eventually released on Fortune Records after the act's RCA success which has led to some confusion that the Davis Sisters were on the Fortune label before RCA).

Stoney Cooper
Dale Troy Cooper (October 16, 1918–March 22, 1977), known professionally as Stoney Cooper, was an American country star and member of the Grand Ole Opry. He was a master of the fiddle and the guitar.
Cooper was the son of Kenny and Stella (Raines) Cooper of Harman, Randolph County, West Virginia. His family was among the first settlers of Randolph and Pendleton counties, and these roots in the Appalachian mountains had an impact upon his music.
While in high school, Cooper was a member of the Leary Family Singers. In 1939 he married Wilma Lee Leary. They became Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper, one of the biggest country music acts of the 1940s through the 1960s. They had one daughter, Carol Lee Cooper.
In 1947, they were cast members of WWVA Jamboree in Wheeling, West Virginia until 1957. Their band was called The Clinch Mountain Clan. In 1948, Cooper signed a recording contract with Columbia with the help of Fred Rose that lasted to 1955. In 1954, Cooper joined the Grand Ole Opry.
He also recorded for Rich-R-Tone, Hickory Records and Decca.

Tammy Wynette
Virginia Wynette Pugh, known professionally as Tammy Wynette, (May 5, 1942 – April 6, 1998) was an American country music singer-songwriter and one of the genre's best-known artists and biggest-selling woman singers.
Wynette was sometimes called the "First Lady of Country Music", and her best-known song, Stand by Your Man, was one of the best-selling hit singles by a woman in the history of the country music genre. Many of Wynette's hits dealt with classic themes of loneliness, divorce, and the difficulties of man-woman relationships. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, Wynette ranked high in the country sales charts with 17 number-one songs. Along with Loretta Lynn, Lynn Anderson, and Dolly Parton, Wynette defined the role of women in country music during the 1970s.
Wynette's marriage to the country singer George Jones in 1969, which end in divorce in 1975, created a country music "couple", following the earlier success of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash. Jones and Wynette recorded a sequence of duet albums and single records that hit the charts throughout the 1970s.

Tanya Tucker
Tanya Denise Tucker (born October 10, 1958, in Seminole, Texas) is a female American country music artist who had her first hit, "Delta Dawn", in 1972 at the age of 13. Over the succeeding decades, Tucker became one of the few child performers to mature into adulthood without losing her audience, and during the course of her career, she notched a streak of Top 10 and Top 40 hits. She has had several successful albums, several Country Music Association award nominations, and hit songs such as 1973's "What's Your Mama's Name?" and "Blood Red and Goin' Down," 1975's "Lizzie and the Rainman," and 1988's "Strong Enough to Bend".
Tucker was the youngest of four children born to Jesse "Beau" and Juanita Tucker. Her father was a heavy equipment operator, and the family moved often as he sought better work. Tanya's early childhood was spent primarily in Willcox, Arizona, where the only radio station in town played country music. The Tuckers attended concerts of country stars such as Ernest Tubb and Mel Tillis, and Tanya's sister LaCosta was praised in the family for her vocal abilities. At the age of eight, Tanya told her father that she also wanted to be a country singer when she grew up.

The Beach Boys
The Beach Boys are an American rock band, formed in 1961 in Hawthorne, California. The group was initially composed of brothers Brian, Dennis and Carl Wilson, their cousin Mike Love, and friend Al Jardine. They were managed early on by the Wilsons' father, Murry. The band's leader, composer, arranger and producer Brian Wilson was responsible for writing most of the band's early singles and albums. After signing with Capitol Records in mid-1962, Wilson wrote or co-wrote more than two dozen Top 40 hits including "Surfin' Safari", "Surfin' USA", "Surfer Girl", "Little Deuce Coupe", "Be True to Your School", "In My Room", "Fun, Fun, Fun", "I Get Around", "Dance Dance Dance", "Help Me Rhonda" and "California Girls". These songs and their accompanying albums were internationally popular, making The Beach Boys one of the biggest acts of their time. The band's early music gained popularity across the United States for its close vocal harmonies and lyrics reflecting a Southern California youth culture of surfing, cars, and romance. By the mid-1960s, Brian's growing creative ambition and songwriting ability would dominate the group's musical direction. The primarily Brian-composed Pet Sounds album and "Good Vibrations" single (both released in 1966) featured a complex, intricate and multi-layered sound.

Trisha Yearwood
Patricia Lynn Yearwood, professionally known as Trisha Yearwood (born September 19, 1964), is an American country music artist. She is best known for her ballads about vulnerable young women from a female perspective that have been described by some music critics as "strong" and "confident."
Trisha Yearwood signed with MCA Records in 1990. She came to prominence with her debut single, "She's in Love with the Boy" which became a number 1 on the Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in 1991. Her second album release, Hearts in Armor (1992) reflected Yearwood's own personal issues, which won her widespread critical acclaim among music critics and further success in country music. Her later album releases such as The Song Remembers When (1993), Thinkin' About You (1995) and Everybody Knows (1996) also demonstrated her creative control, featuring collaborations from Rodney Crowell, Willie Nelson and Garth Brooks.
Yearwood also found major success in country radio during much of the 1990s, including with the 1997 song "How Do I Live." Initially released on the soundtrack of the film, Con Air, the song was also issued on her "greatest hits" compilation entitled (Songbook) A Collection of Hits (1997) and would eventually win Best Female Country Vocal Performance from the Grammy Awards. In addition she would also win accolades from the Academy of Country Music and Country Music Association Awards in 1997 and 1998. Aside from her success in country music, she has also donated her time as a philanthropist, working with Habitat for Humanity and the Make a Wish Foundation. In addition she also set aside a project to release her first cookbook in April 2008 titled Georgia Cooking in an Oklahoma Kitchen, which consisted of southern cooking recipes from Yearwood, her mother and sister.

Wanda Jackson
Wanda Lavonne Jackson (born October 20, 1937) is an American singer, songwriter, pianist and guitarist who had success in the mid-1950s and 60s as one of the first popular female rockabilly singers and a pioneering rock and roll artist. She is known to many as the Queen (or First Lady) of Rockabilly.
Jackson mixed country music with fast-moving rockabilly, often recording them on opposite sides of a record. As rockabilly declined in popularity in the mid-1960s, she moved to a successful career in mainstream country music with a string of hits between 1966 and 1973, including "Tears Will Be the Chaser for Your Wine", "A Woman Lives for Love" and "Fancy Satin Pillows".
She has enjoyed a resurgence of popularity among rockabilly revivalists in Europe, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as an Early Influence in 2009.
Wanda Jackson was born in Maud, Oklahoma on October 20, 1937, but has lived much of her life in Oklahoma City. Her father, a musician, moved the family to California during the 1940s in hopes of a better life. Two years later, he bought Jackson a guitar and encouraged her to play. He also took her to see performances by Spade Cooley, Tex Williams and Bob Wills, which left a lasting impression. In 1948, when she was 11, the family moved back to Oklahoma. In 1956, she won a talent contest which led to her own radio program, soon extended by 30 minutes.

Willie Nelson
Willie Hugh Nelson (pronounced /wɪli nɛlsən /; born April 30, 1933) is an American country music singer-songwriter, as well as an author, poet, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed at the end of the 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound. Nelson has acted in over 30 films, co-authored several books, and has been involved in activism for the use of biofuels and the legalization of marijuana.

Wilma Burgess
Wilma Burgess (born Wilma Charlene Burgess June 11, 1939 - August 26, 2003) was an American country music singer. She rose to fame in the mid 1960s and charted fifteen singles on the Billboard C&W charts between 1965 and 1975.
Wilma Burgess was born and raised in Orlando, Florida. Following high school graduation she proceeded to Stetson University in Deland, Florida studying physical education. She had no interest in a musical career - although she had displayed her natural talent performing as a Pop singer on local television - until hearing Eddy Arnold in concert awakened her passion for C&W music.
In 1960 a songwriter friend of Burgess persuaded her to go to Nashville to record some demos of his compositions. One of the publishers Burgess sang for asked to manage her singing career and Burgess cut her first single in the fall of 1962 for the United Artists label.
Eventually Burgess came to the attention of Owen Bradley who heard in Burgess' voice the potential for a successor to the recently deceased Patsy Cline who Bradley had produced.

Wilma Lee Cooper
Wilma Lee Leary (February 7, 1921 – September 13, 2011), known professionally as Wilma Lee Cooper, was an American bluegrass-based country music entertainer.
Born in Valley Head, West Virginia, Leary sang in her youth with her family's gospel music group, The Leary Family, which included her parents and sisters. They recorded for the Library Of Congress in 1938.
In 1939, Leary married fiddler and vocalist Dale T. "Stoney" Cooper, who was a musical accompanist for the Leary Family, and the duo formed their own bluegrass group, Wilma Lee & Stoney Cooper and the Clinch Mountain Clan. They were regulars for ten years on Wheeling, West Virginia's WWVA-AM's rival to the Grand Ole Opry, WWVA Jamboree, beginning in 1947 before joining the Opry in 1957.
Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper had remarkable record success in the late 1950s and early 1960s on Hickory Records given both their bluegrass sound (which has rarely been as commercially successful) and the damage rock-n-roll was doing to country music's popularity at the time. They scored seven hit records between 1956 and 1961, with four top ten hits on Billboard charts, notably "Big Midnight Special" and "There's a Big Wheel." They remained connected to the Leary Family tradition as well, recording popular gospel songs like "The Tramp on the Street" and "Walking My Lord Up Calvary's Hill."

I was dancin' with my darlin' to the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to meet
I introduced her to my darlin' and while they were dancin'
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
I'm know now just what I have lost
Yes, I've lost my little darlin'
The night they were playin' the beautiful Tennessee Waltz
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
I'm know now just what I have lost
Yes, I've lost my little darlin'
The night they were playin' the beautiful Tennessee Waltz
Stupid cupid, you're a real mean guy
I'd like to clip your wings so you can't fly
I love him, it's a cryin' shame
And I know that you're the one to blame
Hey, hey, set me free
Stupid cupid, stop pickin' on me
I can't do my homework and I can't think straight
I meet him ev'ry mornin' about half past eight
I'm acting like a lovesick fool
He's even got my carrying his books to school
Hey, hey, set me free
Stupid cupid, stop pickin' on me
Well, you mixed me up but good
Right from the very start
Hey, don't play Robin Hood
With somebody else's heart
You got me jumpin' like a crazy clown
And I don't feature what you're puttin' down
Since I kissed your lovin' lips of wine
The thing that bothers me is I like it fine
Hey, hey, set me free
Stupid cupid, stop pickin' on me
Well, you mixed me up but good
Right from the very start
Hey, don't play Robin Hood
With somebody else's heart
You got me jumpin' like a crazy clown
And I don't feature what you're puttin' down
Since I kissed your lovin' lips of wine
The thing that bothers me is I like it fine
Hey, hey, set me free
Oh, we ain't got a barrel of money
Maybe we're ragged and funny
But we'll travel along
Singing a song, side by side
I don't know what's comin' tomorrow
Maybe it's trouble and sorrow
But we'll travel the road
Sharing our load, side by side
Through all kinds of weather
What if the sky should fall
Just as long as we're together
It really doesn't matter at all
When they've all had their quarrels and parted
We'll be the same as we started
Just traveling along
Singing a song, side by side
Through all kinds of weather
What if the sky should fall
Just as long as we're together
It really doesn't matter at all
When they've all had their quarrels and parted
We'll be the same as we started
Just traveling along
Everything you told me I believed
You said that I was all that you'd ever need
That I made life worth livin' for you
And no one else could ever fill my shoes
But them shoes don't fit me anymore
They lost their shape when I lost all that I cared for
And someone else will fill the shoes that I once wore
'Cause them shoes don't fit me anymore
When a shoe is new, it fits awful tight
When our love was new, everything was right
When a shoe is old, you throw it away
Our love is like the shoes that you wore yesterday
But them shoes don't fit me anymore
They lost their shape when I lost all that I cared for
And someone else will fill the shoes that I once wore
I must make up my mind today
What to have, what to hold
A poor man's roses
Or a rich man's gold
One's as wealthy as a king in a palace
Tho' he's callous and cold
He may learn to give his heart for love
Instead of buyin' it with gold
Then the poor man's roses
And the thrill when we kiss
Will be memories of paradise
That I'll never miss
And yet the hand that brings the rose tonight
Is the hand I will hold
For the rose of love means more to me
More than any rich man's gold
Let the teardrops fall
You said you wasn't gonna call
You didn't love me at all
So let the teardrops fall
Since you've been gone
I've been so blue
And I spend my time
Just a-thinkin' of you
Well, I sit here at home
By my telephone
Hopin' you'll change your mind
Well, it's you I dream of
And I need your love
So tell me you'll be mine
'Cause the sun won't shine
And the moon it won't glow
And these lonely nights
All pass too slow
Sweet memories
I still recall
But I miss you so
So let the teardrops fall
Well, I sit here at home
By my telephone
Hopin' you'll change your mind
Well, it's you I dream of
And I need your love
So tell me you'll be mine
'Cause the sun won't shine
And the moon it won't glow
And these lonely nights
All pass too slow
Sweet memories
I still recall
But I miss you so
Imagine me still lovin' you
After all you've put me through
Well, I can't help it, I just do
Imagine that and that's not the half
Imagine this, if you can
I've stood more, more than I should stand
But I'd still take you back again
Imagine that, ain't that a laugh
Can you believe I'd swallow my pride
Well, yes, yes, I guess you can
'Cause you know you've always had my foolish heart
Right in the palm of your hand
So, for what it's worth to you
It, it just don't matter what you might do
'Cause I'm still waitin' and lovin' you
Imagine that, ain't that a laugh
So, for what it's worth to you
It just don't matter what you might do
'Cause I'll still be waitin' and lovin' you
If I could see the world
Through the eyes of a child
What a wonderful world this would be
There'd be no trouble and no strife
Just a big happy life
With a bluebird in every tree
I could see right, no wrong
I could see good, no bad
I could see all the good things
In life I've never had
If I could see the world
Through the eyes of a child
I cried all the way to the altar
A smile was on my face, but tears were in my heart
Two hearts broken and a third will soon falter
Now too late, I know that we were wrong to part
Oh, my darling now too late
We can't go back and start anew
Now too late, I've thrown away
My chance of happiness with you
I cried all the way to the altar
Now too late, I know that we were wrong to part
Take a calendar and turn back all the pages
Take my life, turn back each day since I was born
I cried all the way to the altar
Now too late, I see the damage I have done
Oh, my darling now too late
We can't go back and start anew
Now too late, I've thrown away
My chance of happiness with you
I cried all the way to the altar
Today I passed you on the street
And my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else stood by your side
And she looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
A picture from the past came slowly stealing
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you
Then suddenly I got that old time feelin'
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you
And hold you just the way I used to do
Oh, heaven only knows how much I miss you
Tonight alone I'm thinkin'
Of the things we used to do
There's laughter all around me
But my heart still aches for you
The wedding bells are ringing
But to me their chimes are blue
How can I face tomorrow
When I know I'm losin' you?
The dreams we shared
Have all been torn apart
It's your wedding day
But I can't claim your heart
Now someone else will hold you
Just the way I use to do
How can I face tomorrow
When I know I'm losin' you?
The dreams we shared
Have all been torn apart
It's your wedding day
But I can't claim your heart
Now someone else will hold you
Just the way I use to do
How can I face tomorrow
Come on dad get with the jive
Let's let them know that we're alive
Until the break of dawn
We'll yell for more, more, more
Gonna live it up and tear it down
Get in the groove and paint the town
Gotta lot of rhythm in my soul
Well, now, baby, baby, let's go tonight
Together you and me
Baby, baby, when ya hold me tight
Ooh, wee, whatcha do to me
The big black hand's on the clock
Tell me that it's time to rock
Gotta lot of rhythm in my soul
Big bad beat with a crazy bop
When the lights are low and the music's hot
Dance from 2 to 3 and then a half past 4
When that sun peeps over the hill
I won't stop, I'll be rockin' still
Gotta lot of rhythm in my soul
Well, now, baby, baby, let's go tonight
Together you and me
Baby, baby when ya hold me tight
Ooh, wee, whatcha do to me
The big black hand's on the clock
Tell me that it's time to rock
Gotta lot of rhythm in my soul
Well, now, baby, baby, let's go tonight
Together you and me
Baby, baby when ya hold me tight
Ooh, wee, whatcha do to me
The big black hand's on the clock
Tell me that it's time to rock
Gotta lot of rhythm in my soul
The first scene was the church, then the altar
Where we claimed each other, with tears of joy we cried
Our friends wished us luck there forever
As we walked from the church, side by side
The next scene was a crowded courtroom
And like strangers we sat side by side
Then I heard the judge make his decision
And no longer were we man and wife
I hate the sight of that courtroom
Where man made laws push God's laws aside
Then the clerk wrote our story in the record
A church, a courtroom and then goodbye
We walked from that courtroom together
We shook hands and once again we cried
Then it was the end of our story

You think you love Sue
But when I get thru with you
You won't ever look at Sue again...
I'm gonna be so good to you
I'm gonna love you my whole life thru
Pretty soon you'll feel the same
You won't even know her name
I'll give ya kisses that she can't beat
I'll treat you so nice and sweet
When I get thru with you
You'll love me too, not Sue
When I get thru with you
You'll love me too
I'm gonna treat you sweet and kind
I'll drive her right outta your mind
And you won't know her if you meet
Walk right by her on the street
Because I want you and need you so
Poor Susie will have to go
When I get thru with you
You'll love me too, not Sue
When I get thru with you
You'll love me too
I'm gonna be so good to you
I'll love you my whole life thru
Pretty soon you'll feel the same
You won't even know her name
I'll give you kisses that she can't beat
I'll treat you so nice and sweet
When I get thru with you
You'll love me too, not Sue
When I get thru with you
You'll love me too, not Sue
When I get thru with you
You'll love me too, not Sue...

I've got my life in such a mess
And I don't know what to do
How can I live in this ol' world
And be in love with two
If I said goodbye to my first true love
My heart would break in two
For I'm halfway still in love with him
And half in love with you
(Chorus)
Tra le la le la le la triangle
Tra le la le la le la triangle
Tra le la le la le la triangle
My life's in such a tangle
Tra le la le la le la ~ triangle
Tra le la le la le la ~ triangle
Tra le la le la le la ~ triangle
What'll I do about you
I saw you at the movie show
Just the other day
But I was with my other love
So I looked the other way
I didn't want to hurt him
Couldn't bear for him to see
The way that I would look at you
And the way you look at me
(Repeat Chorus, 2X)
What'll I do about you...

Deep within my heart
Lies a melody,
A song of old San Antone,
Where in dreams I live
With a memory,
Beneath the stars all alone.
Well, it was there I found
Beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the
Blue up above,
For that moonlit pass
That only he would know
Still hears my broken song of love.
Moon in all your splendor,
Known only to my heart,
Call back my rose,
Rose of San Antone!
Lips so sweet and tender,
Like petals fallinapart,
Speak once again of my love, my own
Broken song,
Empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone,
For that moonlit pass by the Alamo,
And rose my rose of San Antone!
Broken song, empty words, I know,
Still live in my heart all alone,
For that moonlit pass by the Alamo,
And rose my rose of San AntoneAnd rose my rose of San AntoneAnd rose my rose
of San Antone!

If I could see the world
Thru the eyes of a child
What a wonderful world this would be
There'd be no trouble and no strife
Just a big happy life
With a bluebird in every tree
(Chorus)
I could see right, no wrong
I could see good, no bad
I could see all the good things
In life I've never had
If I could see the world
Thru the eyes of a child
What a wonderful world this would be
If I could see the world
Thru the eyes of a child
Smiling faces would greet me all the while
Like a lovely work of art
It would warm my weary heart
Just to see thru the eyes of a child

My love and I, in a small caf?BR> Then a stranger came along
And everything went wrong

And I sit alone
And watch one cigarette burn away

She won his heart, I lost him someway
There he goes, he's walkin' away

I'd be the one, walkin' by his side
I love him still and I guess that it shows

Life is like a mountain railroad
With an engineer that's brave
We must make the run successful
From the cradle to the grave
Watch the curves, the hills and tunnels
Never falter, never fail
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eyes upon the rail
Blessed Savior, Thou will guide us
Till we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In that land forevermore

Till we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us

Love that runs away from me
Dreams that just won't let me be
Blues that keep on both'rin' me
Chains that just won't set me free
Too far away from you and all your charms
Just out of reach of my two open arms
Each night in dreams I see your face
Mem'ries time cannot erase
Then I awake and find you've gone
I'm so blue, I'm all alone
So far away from lips so sweet and warm
Just out of reach of my two open arms
(That lonesome feeling all the time)
(Knowing you cannot be mine)
Dreams that hurt me in my sleep
Vows that we could never keep
Too far away from lips so sweet and warm
Just out of reach of my two open arms

I am weak but Thou art strong
Jesus keep me from all wrong
I'll be satisfied as long
As I walk, let me walk close to Thee
CHORUS:
Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it, Jesus, is my plea
Daily walking close to Thee
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be
When my feeble life is o'er
Time for me shall be no more
Guide me gently, safely o'er
To Thy kingdom's shore, to Thy shore
When life's sun sinks in the west
Lord, may I have done my best
May I find sweet peace and rest
In that happy home of the blessed

You say you love me
Then you treat me like a stranger
I don't understand your kind of love
You say you need me
And that makes it even stranger
No, I don't understand your kind of love
If you can't be all mine
Then why am I all yours
I wonder where a heart draws the line
I try not to see you
But you're a great arranger
No, I don't understand your kind of love

See the pyramids along the Nile
Watch the sunrise on a tropic isle
Just remember darlin' all the while
You belong to me
See the market place in Old Algiers
Send me photographs and souvenirs
Just remember when a dream appears
You belong to me

Maybe you'll be lonesome too, and blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember 'til you're home again
You belong to me

You can't imagine how it hurts me
To have you treat me like you do
Knowing that my love is just a joke to you
But I'll take it just to see you
And laugh as teardrops fall
So when you need a laugh, give me a call
Everybody says I'm crazy
To let you treat me this way
But I can't explain, so, what else can I say
At least I'm on your mind when you're laughin'
Somehow that breaks the fall
So when you need a laugh, give me a call
I'd gladly trade the laugh you get
For making fun of me
To be around the one I love and need so desperately
So even if the laugh's on me
I don't mind at all
So when you need a laugh, give me a call
So when you need a laugh, give me a call

How warm is the love in my heart for you
As warm as the sun in the sky of blue
How long will it shine if you say you're mine

How strong was my love from the very start
How long will it last in my happy heart
How much would I cry if we'd ever part
Today, tomorrow and forever
'Cause if you weren't there to share my love
Who cares if the sky should fall
For anyone can see how much you mean to me
You're my life, my love, my very all

As long as the trees and the flowers grow
So long, oh my love, will I love you so

Strange how you stopped needing me, how stopped loving me when she came along. Oh, how strange.
Strange you changed like night & day; just up & walked away, when she came along. Oh, how strange.
Well, I guess that I was just a puppet you put on a string. To think I thought you really loved me, but look what thoughts can bring.
Strange you're still in all my dreams. Oh, what a funny thing. Oh, how strange.

South of the border, down Mexico way
That's where they fell in love when stars above came out to play
And now as they wander, their thoughts ever stray
South of the border, down Mexico way
She was a picture in old Spanish lace
Just for a tender while he kissed the smile upon her face
For it was Fiesta and they were so gay
South of the border, down Mexico way
Then she sighed as she whispered "Manana"
Never dreaming that they were parting
And he lied as he whispered "Manana"
For that tomorrow never came
South of the border, he rode back one day
There in a veil of white by candlelight she knelt to pray
The mission bells told him that he mustn't stay
South of the border, down Mexico way

I need a place to go and weep
Where's this place called Lonely Street?
A place where there's just loneliness
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
Where's this place called Lonely Street?
Perhaps upon that lonely street
There's someone such as I
Who came to bury broken dreams
And watch an old love die
If I could find that lonely street
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
Where's this place called Lonely Street?

You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
You're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down
If you miss me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
If you loved me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
I know that I would never be this blue
As I look at the letters that you wrote to me
It's you that I am thinking of
As I read the lines, that to me were so dear
I remember our faded love
I miss you, darling, more and more everyday
As Heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat, I still think of you
And remember our faded love
As I think of the past and all the pleasures we had
As I watched the mating of the dove
It was in the spring time that you said goodbye
I remember our faded love
I miss you, darling, more and more everyday
As Heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat, I still think of you
And remember our faded love

Days may not be fair, always

I must make up my mind today
What to have, what to hold
A poor man's roses
Or a rich man's gold
One's as wealthy as a king in a palace
Tho' he's callous and cold
He may learn to give his heart for love
Instead of buyin' it with gold
Then the poor man's roses
And the thrill when we kiss
Will be memories of paradise
That I'll never miss
And yet the hand that brings the rose tonight
Is the hand I will hold
For the rose of love means more to me
More than any rich man's gold

A walkin' dream
My heart is yearnin'
Walkin' dream
My lips are burnin'
A lovely dream
Of love I'm learnin'
Cause your surprisin'
Tantilizin', walkin' dream
Now keep on a walkin'
Keep on a talkin'
And I'll do my best
To make the rest
Of this lovely dream come true
A walkin' dream
I want you near me
A walkin' dream
Can't you hear me
Lovely dream
Won't you love me
'Cause your so lovey
Turtle dovey, walkin' dream
Cause your so lovey

Round n' around n' around
Round n' around n' around
Round n' around n' around
And around and around
(Chorus)
Oh stop the world and let me off
I'm tired of goin' round n' round
I played the game of love and lost
So stop the world and let me off
My heart is shattered can't you see
'Cause you no longer care for me
But someday I'm sure you'll see
Loving you did this to me
My dream world tumbled to the ground
The one I love has let me down
I lost the wonder of his kiss
How could he leave me here like this
(Repeat chorus)
Lock all this burning up inside
I know his love for me has died
I lost the wonder of his kiss
How could he leave me here like this

I'm on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Makin' ever spot in town
Startin' out early, comin' home late
Ever' night with a brand new date
I'm on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Actin' like a foolish clown
Still racin' those blues that you left with me
Wond'rin' if I'll ever be free
CHORUS:
Round and around and around I go
Ridin' high and feelin' low
Round and around just like a top
Well, I'm a-gettin' dizzy, but I can't stop
I'm on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Actin' like a foolish clown
Still racin' those blues that you left with me
Wond'rin' if I'll ever be free

Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue
Have you ever loved someone
Just as I love you
Can't you see I'm sorry
For each mistake I've made
Can't you see I've changed, dear
Can't you see I've paid
Be a little forgiving
Take me back in your heart
How can I go on living
Now that we're apart
If you knew what I've been thru
Then you'd know why I ask you
Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue

Just as I love you
Can't you see that I'm sorry
For each mistake I made
Can't you see I've changed, dear

Oh, be a little forgivin'
Take me back in your heart
How can I go on livin'

If you knew what I been thru
You would know why I ask you
Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue
Your cheatin' heart
Will make you weep
You'll cry and cry
And try to sleep
But sleep won't come
The whole night through
Your cheatin' heart
Will tell on you
When tears come down
Like fallin' rain
You'll toss around
And call my name
You'll walk the floor
The way I do
Your cheatin' heart
Will tell on you
When tears come down
Like fallin' rain
You'll toss around
And call my name
You're gonna walk the floor
The very way I do
Your cheatin' heart
Is gonna tell on you
YOU WERE ONLY FOOLING
(While I Was Falling In Love)
Words by Billy Faber and Fred Meadows
Music by Larry Fotine
YOU WERE ONLY FOOLING,
WHILE I WAS FALLING IN LOVE,
IT'S A STORY AS OLD AS ADAM AND EVE,
I WAS MAKING LOVE BUT YOU WERE MAKING BELIEVE,
YOU LIED TO ME WITH KISSES,
I TRIED TO STOP DREAMING OF,
BUT YOU WERE ONLY FOOLING ME,
WHILE I WAS FALLING IN LOVE.

You made me love you
I didn't want to do it
I didn't want to do it
You made me want you
And all the time you knew it
I guess you always knew it
You made me happy sometimes
Sometimes you made me glad
But there were times, dear
You made me feel so bad
You made me sigh for
I didn't wanna tell you
I didn't want to tell you
I want some lovin', that's true
Yes I do, indeed I do, you know I do
Give me, give me, give me what I cry for
You know ya got the brand o' kisses that I'd die for
You know you made me love you
You made me sigh for
I didn't want to tell you
I didn't wanna tell you
I want some lovin', that's true
Yes I do, indeed I do, you know I do
Give me, give me, give me what I cry for
You know ya got the brand o' kisses that I'd die for
You know you made me love you

Today I passed you on the street
And my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else stood by your side
And she looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
A picture from the past came slowly stealing
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you
Then suddenly I got that old time feelin'
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you
And hold you just the way I used to do
Oh, heaven only knows how much I miss you
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you

Who can I count on
If I can't count on you
I never counted on you
Makin' me blue
They say your a runnin' 'round
With somebody new
Who can I count on
If I can't count on you
I thought I held a precious key to heaven
Your love was sweet and gentle at the start
But now I feel that I can't go on livin'
If livin' means that we must live apart
Who can I count on
If I can't count on you
There goes my happiness
And here comes the blues
I can't convince myself that
We're really thru
Who can I count on
If I can't count on you
The door to happiness was almost open
Just one more step or two and I'd be in
Then all at once the vows you made were broken
The door to happiness was closed again
Who can I count on
If I can't count on you
There goes my happiness
And here comes the blues
I can't convince myself
That we're really thru
Who can I count on
If I can't count on you
Who can I count on
Who can I count on
Who can I count on
If I can't count on you

I know that someday you'll want me to want you
When I'm in love with somebody else
You expect me to be true, and keep on loving you
Tho' I'm feeling blue - you think I can't forget you
Until someday you'll want me to want you
When I'm strong for somebody new
Tho' you don't want me now, I'll get along somehow
And then I won't want you
I know that someday you'll want me to want you

Tho' we said goodbye
When the moon was high
Does your heart beat for me
I wonder if I still linger
In your memory
When you hear my name
Is the thrill the same
As it once used to be
When you're lonesome, my sweetheart
Does your heart beat for me
When you hear my name
Hear my name
Is the thrill the same
Thrill the same
As it once used to be
When you're lonesome, my sweetheart
Does your heart beat for me
Blue is not the word for the way that I feel
And the storm brewing in this heart of mine.
This is not pleasure dream I know that its real
Your someone else's love now your not mine
Crazy arms that reach to horse somebody new
But my yearning heart keeps saying your not mine
My troubled mind no soon to another you will be with
And that's why I'm lonely all the time
Please take the treasured dreams I had for you and me
And take all the love I thought was mine
Someday my crazy arms will hold somebody new
But now I'm so lonely all the time

He takes me to the places you and I used to go
He tells me over and over that he loves me so
He gives me love that I never got from you
He loves me too, his love is true
Why can't he be you
He never fails to call and tell me I'm on his mind
And I'm lucky to have such a guy; I hear it all the time
And he does all the things that you would never do
He loves me, too, his love is true
Why can't he be you
He's not the one who dominates my mind and soul
And I should love him so, 'cause he loves me, I know
But his kisses leave me cold
He sends me flowers, calls on the hour, just to prove his love
And my friends say when he's around, I'm all he speaks of
And he does all the things that you would never do
He loves me too, his love is true
Why can't he be you

Got a feelin' cause I'm blue, oh, Lord
Since my daddy said goodbye
I don't know what I'm gonna do
All I do is sit and cry, oh, Lord
That last long day he said goodbye
Oh, Lord, I thought I would die
He'll do ya, he'll do me, he's got that kinda lovin'
But, Lord, I love to hear him when he calls me sweet baby
What a beautiful dream
I hate to think it all over
I lost my heart it seems
I've grown so used to that man, somehow
And I'm nobody's sugar-baby now
'Cause I'm lonesome
I got the lovesick blues
Now I'm in love, I'm in love with a wonderful guy
That's what's the matter with me
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love with a wonderful guy
But he don't care about me
Well, I tried and I tried to keep him satisfied
But he just wouldn't stay
But now that he is leavin', this is all I've got to say
I got a feelin' cause I'm blue, oh Lord, since my daddy said goodbye
I don't know what I'm gonna do
I lost my heart it seems
I've grown so used to that man, somehow
And I'm nobody's sugar-baby now
'Cause I'm lonesome
I got the lovesick blues
I've grown so used to that man, and how
And I'm nobody's sugar-baby now

I go to church on a Sunday
The vows that I make, I break them on Monday
The rest of the week, I do as I please
Then come Sunday morning, I pray on my knees
Dear God, I know I'm not worthy
But I need you so please won't you hurry
And help me turn back from the path I have trod
You'll never be sorry, dear God
Each day we read in the paper
Of the carryin's on of some of our neighbors
We're sinnin' and lyin' and forgetting the faith
Then we have the nerve to ask is it too late
Dear God, I know I'm not worthy
But I need you so please won't you hurry
And help me turn back from the path I have trod

I had a dream last night that I held you
And you still seemed as handsome to me
But when I awoke I found you missin'
It's just another crazy dream for me
(Chorus)
Crazy dreams linger on as I face an empty dawn
With no end to it all can I see
For I've surely reached the end
Lost your love to a friend
Just another crazy dream for me
Once you were mine and we were so happy
I never thought that the end soon would be
But now that you're gone, and I'm so lonesome
It's just another crazy dream for me
(Repeat chorus)
Love that runs away from me
Dreams that just won't let me be
Blues that keep on botherin' me
Chains that just won't set me free
Too far away from you and all your charms
Just out of reach of my two open arms
Each night in dreams I see your face
Memories time cannot erase
Then I awake and find you gone
I'm so blue and all alone
So far away from lips so sweet and warm
Just out of reach of my two empty arms
That lonesome feelin' all the time
Knowing you cannot be mine
Dreams that hurt me in my sleep
Vows that we could never keep
Too far away from lips so sweet and warm

If I could see the world
Thru the eyes of a child
What a wonderful world this would be
There'd be no trouble and no strife
Just a big happy life
With a bluebird in every tree
(Chorus)
I could see right, no wrong
I could see good, no bad
I could see all the good things
In life I've never had
If I could see the world
Thru the eyes of a child
What a wonderful world this would be
If I could see the world
Thru the eyes of a child
Smiling faces would greet me all the while
Like a lovely work of art
It would warm my weary heart
Just to see thru the eyes of a child

I fall to pieces each time I see you again
I fall to pieces, how can I be just your friend
You want me to act like we've never kissed
You want me to forget, pretend we've never met
And I've tried and I've tried but I haven't yet
You walk by and I fall to pieces
I fall to pieces each time someone speaks your name
I fall to pieces time only adds to the flame
You tell me to find someone else to love
Someone who'll love me, too, the way you used to do
But each time I go out with someone new
You walk by and I fall to pieces
Crazy
I'm crazy for feelin so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feelin so blue
I knew
You'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday
You'd leave me for somebody new
Worry
Why do I let myself worry
Wondrin
What in the world did I do
Crazy
For thinkin that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin
And crazy for cryin
And I crazy for lovin you
Anytime you're feelin' lonely
Anytime you're feelin' blue
Anytime you feel down-hearted
That will prove your love for me is true
Anytime you're thinkin' 'bout me
That's the time I'll be thinkin' of you
So anytime you say you want me back again
That's the time I'll come on home to you
Anytime
Anytime
Anytime you feel down-hearted
That will prove your love for me is true
Anytime you're thinkin' 'bout me
That's the time I'll be thinkin' of you
So anytime you say you want me back again
That's the time I'll come on home to you
You don't know the meaning
Of the words, 'I love you so'
But when you've found your one love
Then you'll know
You don't know the heartache
Or the laughter you'll forgo
Until you've lost that one love
Then you'll know
Now you pretend to care for me
But honey, if you do
Why don't you give the kind of kiss
I always give to you
So, I've just made my mind up
Even tho' my tears will flow
Go on and find a new love
Then you'll know
Now you pretend to care for me
But honey, if you do
Why don't you give the kind of kiss
I always give to you
So, I've just made my mind up
Even tho' my tears will flow
Go on and find a new love
Then you'll know

Wake up ever' mornin'
Heart's full of pain
Looked out the window
And it's pourin' down with rain
And I cried, baby, oh baby
Don't ever leave me again
I miss your lovin'
Your kisses, too
Ain't nothin' on earth
I wouldn't do for you
And I cried, baby, oh baby
Don't ever leave me again
When rain starts fallin'
And I start callin'
Oh, baby, how I love you
My heart is cryin'
I feel like dyin'
Baby, you know
I want you so
Tell me that you're mine

I'm a-walkin' the dog and I'm never blue
I'm a-walkin' that dog, I not thinkin' 'bout you
I don't need no one to tie me down
'Cause I'm walkin' that dog and a-paintin' the town
Such an easy life, I never knew
Well, I can't believe that it's really true
Well, I'm a carefree gal that's seen the light
And I'm a-walkin' that dog all the day and all night
Well, I'm full of pep, I just can't grow old
I got a one-track mind, so I've been told
But I'm fancy free, I don't worry no how
'Cause I'm walkin' that dog, all the law will allow
Such an easy life, I never knew
Until the day that I left you
Well, I'm a carefree gal that's seen the light
Yes I understand that I'm to set you free
Yes I understand you love her more than me
I understand she won your heart
Stole your love, drew us apart
I understand and so I'll let you go
I tried my best to do the things
I thought would please you dear
I never dreamed the time would come
When you would not be here
Yes I understand what I'm supposed to do
Find me someone else to take the place of you
And if I live a hundred years
I'll find some way to hide these tears
I understand and so I'll let you go
I tried my best to do the things
I thought would please you dear
I never dreamed the time would come
When you would not be here
Yes I understand what I'm supposed to do
Find me someone else to take the place of you
And if I live a hundred years
I'll find some way to hide these tears
Yes, I know why I want to cry, it's over you
And I'm painting the town feeling blue
Should you ever love one that's untrue?
Then you'll know why I want to cry, it's over you
Well, I tried you all over again
And you just smiled all over again
I should have known that you'd never be true
Yes, I know why I want to cry, it's over you
Yes, I know why I want to cry, it's over you
And I'm painting the town feeling blue
Should you ever love one that's untrue?
Then you'll know why I want to cry, it's over you
Well, tomorrow I'll be twice as blue
I'm so low I could die over you
Yes, I'm asking for heartaches anew
I go out walkin' after midnight
Out in the moonlight just like we used to do
I'm always walkin' after midnight searchin' for you
I walk for miles along the highway
Well that's just my way of sayin' I love you
I'm always walkin' after midnight, searchin' for you
I stop to see a weepin' willow
Cryin' on his pillow, maybe he's cryin' for me
And as the skies turn gloomy
Night winds whisper to me, I'm lonesome as I can be
I go out walkin' after midnight
Out in the moonlight, just hopin' you may be
Somewhere a-walkin' after midnight, searchin' for me
I stop to see a weepin' willow
Cryin' on his pillow, maybe he's cryin' for me
And as the skies turn gloomy
Night winds whisper to me, I'm lonesome as I can be
I go out walkin' after midnight
Out in the moonlight, just hopin' you may be
Somewhere a-walkin' after midnight, searchin' for me
Turn the cards slowly while you're dealin', darlin'
Please don't double-deal to win my heart
Turn the cards slowly while you're dealin', darlin'
Don't go breakin' rules right from the start
The ramblin', gamblin', reckless way you treat my heart's a sin
Each night down on my knees I pray your gamblin' ways will end
Turn the cards slowly while you're dealin', darlin'
And if you stack the deck, then I'll move on
Turn the cards slowly while you're dealin', darlin'
Please don't double-deal to win my heart
Turn the cards slowly while you're dealin', darlin'
Don't go breakin' rules right from the start
The ramblin', gamblin', reckless way you treat my heart's a sin
Each night down on my knees I pray your gamblin' ways will end
Turn the cards slowly while you're dealin', darlin'
And if you stack the deck, then I'll move on
Turn the cards slowly while you're dealin', darlin'
Try again, don't feel blue
Try again, I've been through, feelin' blue
Same as you, I've been broken hearted
And cried the whole night through
Sorry, now we've parted 'cause no one else will do
Try again, so they say
Try again, say goodbye to the tear in your eye
Somethin' seems to tell me that we could love again
Try again, says my heart, try again
Try again, so they say
Try again, say goodbye to the tear in your eye
Somethin' seems to tell me that we could love again
Last night I met a woman, you'll recognize her name
Who, in our conversation told me you were her old flame
Well, I didn't want to listen but as she told me more
I learned more about you than I ever knew before
You're keepin' too many secrets from me
But, baby, now I'm wise to you you'll fool me like the others
And I know what you'll do you'll find yourself a new love
And keep me a secret, too
Well, I walked up to a counter to buy some cigarettes
And standin' there beside me was a gal I'd never met
She pulled out her wallet and, much to my surprise
There she held your picture, baby right before my eyes
You're keepin' too many secrets from me
But, baby, now I'm wise to you you'll fool me like the others
And I know what you'll do you'll find yourself a new love
And keep me a secret, too
You're keepin' too many secrets from me
But, baby, now I'm wise to you you'll fool me like the others
And I know what you'll do you'll find yourself a new love
And keep me a secret, too
You'll find yourself a new love
Oh, the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yearns to wander
And he was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind
In a lonely shack by a railroad track
He spent his younger days
And I guess the sound of the outward bound
Made me a slave to his wandering ways
Oh the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yearns to wander
And he was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind
Oh, I met him there in a border town
He vowed we'd never part
Though he tried his best to settle down
Now I'm alone with a broken heart
Oh the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yearns to wander
And he was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind
The next of kin to the wayward wind
To spend one night with you, in our old rendezvous
And reminisce with you, that's my desire
To meet where gypsies play, down in that dim cafe
And dance till break of day, that's my desire
We'll sip a little glass of wine, I'll gaze into your eyes divine
I'll feel the touch of your lips, pressing on mine
To hear you whisper low, just when it's time to go
Darling, I love you so, that's my desire
We'll sip a little glass of wine, I'll gaze into your eyes divine
I'll feel the touch of your lips, pressing on mine
To hear you whisper low, just when it is time to go
Tell a little white lie
And then multiply by ten
And then, that's how a heartache begins
Mix some flowers he bought
With a date he forgot to attend
And then, that's how a heartache begins
I know about heartaches, I know all the mistakes
That a young love can make, I've made them
So let's still be friends to the soft violins
I've listened while somebody played them
Call his number in vain
Again and again, he's not in
But then, that's how a heartache begins
I know about heartaches, I know all the mistakes
That a young love can make, I've made them
So let's still be friends to the soft violins
I've listened while somebody played them
Call his number in vain
Again and again, he's not in
But then, that's how a heartache begins
That's how a heartache begins
In my times of loneliness I'm wondering
What came over me, the sight of the light
My life's a nighmare every time I open my eyes
I makes me wanna fall to sleep
Blinded by the morning sun
Sweet dream, lonely night
Sweet dream, another lonely night, so lonely.
Take the past it's just a dream
Reality is present and fiction's not clear
Take my hand I'll show you the way
I don't care if I'm wrong or right
As long as I set my sweet dreams tonight
Sweet dream, lonely night, sweet dream
In my life I feel despair every day
But you can't see
My eyes filling with tears
Broken dreams from an endless night
Reborn from the ashes of a previous life
Sweet dream, lonely night, sweet dream
I've loved and lost again
Oh, what a crazy world we're livin' in
True love has no chance to win
I've loved and lost again
I ask you what chance have I
When each love I meet just makes me cry
He loves awhile then says goodbye
I've loved and lost again
To be true to one alone
Don't seem to matter anymore
They tell you you're out of style
Unless you've had three or four
I've loved and lost again
Oh, what a crazy world we're livin' in
True love has no chance to win
I've loved and lost again
To be true to one alone
Don't seem to matter anymore
They tell you you're out of style
Unless you've had three or four
I've loved and lost again
Oh, what a crazy world we're livin' in
True love has no chance to win
An old cool cat from way downtown
He's been boppin' all around
This old world were living fast
Afraid some day were gonna run outta gas
If you're travellin' that way too
I'll tell you folks what you better do
You gotta, stop, look and listen
Don't know what you're missin'
Stop, look and listen
You might be missin', kissin'
If you're travellin' slow
You'll go a long long way
Well, farmer Jones he came to town
Saw that boppin' all around
Learned to do it, there's no doubt
Fraid some day he'll burn his motor out
If you're travellin' that way too
I'll tell you folks what you better do
You gotta stop, look and listen
Don't know what you're missin'
Stop, look listen
You might be missin', kissin'
If you're travellin' slow
You'll go a long long way
First came the boogie, then the bunny hop
Now the
(Rumble, samba)
Then the bop
I don't know what's comin' next
This old world's in a terrible fix
If you're travellin' that way too
I'll tell you folks what you better do
You gotta stop, look and listen
Don't know what you're missin'
Stop, look listen
You might be missing kissin'
If you're travellin' slow
You'll go a long long way
I know a cool cat from way outta town
He's been boppin' all around
This old world we're living fast
Afraid some day were gonna run outta gas
If you're travellin' that way too
I'll tell you folks what you better do
You gotta stop, look and listen
You don't know what you're missin'
Stop, look listen
You might be missin', kissin'
If you're travellin' slow
I've got your picture that you gave to me
And it's signed with love
just like it used to be
the only thing different
the only thing new
I've got your picture
she's got you
I've got the records
That we used to share
and they still sound the same as when you were here
The only thing different
the only thing new
I've got the records
she'd got you
I've got you memory
Or has it got me?
I really don't now
But I know it won't let me be
I've got your class ring
That proved you cared
And it still looks the same as when you gave it dear
The only thing different
The only thing new
I've got these little things
She's got you
I've got your memory
or has it got me
I really don't know
but I know
it wont let me be
I've got your class ring
That proved you cared
and it still looks the same
as when you gave it dear
The only thing different
The only thing new
I've got these little things
Now get out in that kitchen and rattle those pots and pans
Now get out in that kitchen and rattle those pots and pans
Roll my breakfast cause I'm a hungry man
I said shake rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
Daddi-O
I said shake rattle and roll
Well you don't do nothin' to save your doggone soul
I'm like a one-eyed cat peepin' in a seafood store
I'm like a one-eyed cat peepin' in a seafood store
Well I can look at you tell you don't love me no more
Well I said shake rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
Daddi-O
I said shake rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
Right or wrong I'll be with you
I'll do what you ask me to
For I believe that I belong
By your side for right or wrong.
Right or wrong it's got to be
Always you and always me
Won't you take me along,
To be with you right or wrong.
If it's wrong for me to love you
It can't be wrong for me to care
If you should say you love me
My life with you I'll share.
Right or wrong day by day
All my love, all the way
I believe that I belong
On a day like today
We pass the time away
Writing love letters in the sand
How you laughed when I cried
Each time I saw the tide
Take our love letters from the sand
You made a vow that you
Would always be true
But somehow, that vow meant nothing to you
Now my poor heart just aches
With every wave that breaks
Over love letters in the sand
You made a vow that you
Would always be true
But somehow, that vow meant nothing to you
Now my poor heart just aches
With every wave that breaks
So long we've been married, life's burdens we've carried
Though faith kept us humble and made our love grow
The plans that we make up
Someone seems to break up but darlin' what else can we do
We may have to leave here to find peace of mind, dear
Some place where we can live a life all our own
For I know you love me and happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone
They say you are leaving that you are deceiving
But you tell me they say the same about me
But we'll show them that they're wrong
That loose talk will do harm and hope that the truth they will see
We may have to leave here to find peace of mind, dear
Some place where we can live a life all our own
For I know you love me and happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone
When I go out walkin' there's lots of loose talkin'
They say we're unhappy and we'll break apart
But, darling, it's not true because I still love you
And I do with all of my heart, yeah
We may have to leave here to find peace of mind, dear
Some place where we can live a life all our own
For I know you love me and happy we could be
Last night I dreamed of you, sweetheart
Once more you loved me
You said we'd never part
It's dawn again
Oh, how sad am I
My dream has ended
And tears fill my eyes
Gently swaying around my feet
Like memories from the past
Each leaf reminds me of a dream
A dream that wouldn't last
For once I know
Your promise you would keep
If I could only
Only stay asleep
Gently swaying around my feet
Like memories from the past
Each leaf reminds me of a dream
A dream that wouldn't last
For once I know
Your promise you would keep
If I could only
Down in Dallas, near the Palace
I met a boy who was so cute
I loved his huggin', I loved his kissin'
As we sat in his little red coupe
He said, "Tell me, confidentially
How much do you love me?"
Well, I thought awhile and then I smiled
And this is what I told him, dontcha see
I love you honey, I love your money
I love your automobile
I love you baby, I don't mean maybe
You're the sweetest thing on wheels
I love your kisses, I wouldn't miss it
No matter how I feel
I love you honey, I love your money
Most of all, I love your automobile
Down in Dallas, near the Palace
I met a boy who was so cute
I loved his huggin', I loved his kissin'
As we sat in his little red coupe
He said, "Tell me, confidentially
How much do you love me?"
Well, I thought awhile and then I smiled
And this is what I told him, dontcha see
I love you honey, I love your money
I love your automobile
I love you baby, I don't mean maybe
You're the sweetest thing on wheels
I love your kisses, I wouldn't miss it
No matter how I feel
I love you honey, I love your money
Most of all, I love your automobile
Don't wanta walk unless I'm walkin' with you
Don't wanta talk unless I'm talkin' to you
Don't wanta be lonesome, don't wanta be blue
Baby, that's how much I love you
Don't wanta cry unless I'm cryin' for you
Don't wanta sigh unless I'm sighin' for you
Don't wanta be found with somebody new
Baby, that's how much I love you
I built my whole world around you
Darlin', don't ever break my heart
I'm so glad that I found you
And in my life, you'll always play a part
Don't wanta live unless I'm livin' with you
Don't wanta give unless I'm givin' to you
Don't wanta be lonesome, don't wanta be blue
Baby, that's how much I love you
I built my whole world around you
Darlin', don't ever break my heart
I'm so glad that I found you
And in my life, you'll always play a part
Don't wanta live unless I'm livin' with you
Don't wanta give unless I'm givin' to you
Don't wanta be lonesome, don't wanta be blue
Baby, that's how much I love you
I can't forget you, I've got these memories of you
I can't forget you, I'll always be loving you
Once we were happy, we were so carefree and gay
Then something happened and you went away
I can't forget you, please tell me what must I do
My memories haunt me because I'll always love you
Where are you darlin'? Are you with someone new?
I can't forget you, I'll always be loving you
I can't forget you, I've got these memories of you
I can't forget you, I'll always be loving you
I can't forget you, please tell me what must I do
My memories haunt me because I'll always love you
Where are you darlin'? Are you with someone new
People point us out and shake their heads in shame
In gossip circles we are talked about
Darlin', on you I hold no legal claim
But here we are again hidin' out
The kisses that you give make our wrong seem so right
It's too late to stop, there's no doubt
We said we wouldn't meet tonight, my dear
But here we are again hidin' out
The ones we're tied to, we know we'll hurt, my dear
Though we're hoping they don't find us out
Sooner or later, we know we'll be caught
I know that you've been foolin' around on me right from the start
So I'll give back your ring and I'll take back my heart
And when you're tired of foolin' around with 2 or 3
Just come on home and fool around with me
Well, I wasn't foolin' around the day I said, "I do"
But many a night I wished that I'd been foolin' too
I know it's foolish takin' all this misery
But when it's you, a fool I'll always be
I know that you've been foolin' around on me right from the start
So I'll give back your ring and I'll take back my heart
And when you're tired of foolin' around with 2 or 3
Then come on home and fool around with me
So honey, fool around, you know right where I'm at
And don't worry if I'm lonesome, 'cause I'm used to that
And when you're tired of foolin' around with 2 or 3
Then come on home and fool around with me
I know that you've been foolin' around on me right from the start
So I'll give back your ring and I'll take back my heart
And when you're tired of foolin' around with 2 or 3
Just come on home and fool around with me
Please come on home, baby, I'm waiting for you, see?
I know that you've been foolin' 'round on me right from the start
So, I'll give back your ring and I'll take back my heart
And when you're tired of foolin' 'round with two or three
Just come on home and fool around with me
Well, I wasn't foolin' 'round the day I said, "I do"
But many a night I wished that I'd been foolin' too
I know it's foolish takin' all this misery
But when it's you, a fool I'll always be
I know that you've been foolin' 'round on me right from the start
So, I'll give back your ring and I'll take back my heart
And when you're tired of foolin' 'round with two or three
Just come on home and fool around with me
So honey, fool around, you know right where I'm at
And don't worry if I'm lonesome 'cause I'm used to that
And when you're tired of foolin' 'round with two or three
Then come on home and fool around with me
I know that you've been foolin' 'round on me right from the start
So, I'll give back your ring and I'll take back my heart
And when you're tired of foolin' 'round with two or three
Just come on home and fool around with me
Please come on home, baby, I'm waiting for you, see
I feel the fingerprints
That you left on my heart
You played a game of love
And then you said we had to part
You left me all alone
And as the teardrops start
I feel the fingerprints
Of sorrow on my heart
I know you didn't mean to be unkind
And hurt me so
And you've made up your mind
But I just thought you ought to know
That when the day is through
I think of only you
I sit alone and dream
And think of things we didn't do
Now, I am all alone
And as the teardrops start
I feel the fingerprints
That you left on my heart
And when the day is through
I think of only you
I sit alone and dream
And think of things we didn't do
Now, I am all alone
And as the teardrops start
I feel the fingerprints
Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home
If I had one wish, I wish I could
Go back to my old neighborhood
Where the good folks they all love you as their own
Then I'd go over to my neighbor's house
Knock on the door 'n they'd all sing out
Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home
I'd sing their praises long and loud
Cause their all my folks and I'm mighty proud
Of the little old town back home where I was born
I wish that I could hear them say
In the good old-fashioned, friendly way
Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home
Well, they don't lock their doors at night
'Cause they all know they're a-doin' right
And the good Lord's bound to have them for his own
If I'd go back to hear them pray
In the little pine church, they all would say
Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home
When I was a child of only three
I said my prayers at my mother's knee
And I knew right then from God I'd never roam
When I get my summons on the Judgment Day
I hope I can hear my Savior say
Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home
Famous quotes by Patsy Cline:
"We're very east Texas people,"
"we're choosy who we work with."
""Here's to those who wish us well and those who don't can go to hell." - Patsy Cline"
"You want me to act like we've never kissed, you want to forget; pretend we've never met , and I've tried and I've tried, but I haven't yet... You walk by, and I fall to pieces."

47 years ago today, tragedy struck when Virginia Patterson Hensley, known to the world as Patsy Cline, musicians Hawkshaw Hawkins, Cowboy Copas, and manager Randy Hughes were killed in a plane crash ninety miles outside of Nashville near Camden, Tennessee. Since then, Patsy continues to be the standard by which all other female Country and Western singers are judged. Many aspire to match her talent but none ever will.

Walkin' After Midnight written by Alan Block and Donn Hecht performed by Patsy Cline with Owen Bradley, Grady Martin, and Hank Garland live from, possibly, Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts (CBS-TV), 28 January 1957* In January 1957, Cline was invited to perform a song on the CBS television program hosted by Arthur Godfrey entitled, Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts. The formula for the show was simple enough. "Scouts" brought on their discoveries to a converted New York theater to perform before a live studio audience. Most of these "discoveries" were in fact struggling professionals looking for a break, and so the quality of the talent was quite high. At the program's conclusion, the studio audience selected the winner by way of an applause meter. Cline's scout, actually her mother Hilda Hensley, presented Patsy to sing one of her recent recordings (and upcoming Decca release), "Walkin' After Midnight." Originally, Patsy intended to performed the flip side, "A Poor Man's Roses (Or a Rich Man's Gold)," but the producers of the show preferred "Walkin' After Midnight". She performed the song during the 8:30 slot of the program. The applause meter on the show had a technical difficulty and froze during her performance due to the excessive amount of applause from the audience. Because of the great amount of applause, Cline won first place in the show that night. In relation to this clip, here is the problem. For years, I have always associtaed the above mentioned event with this ...

"On the night of July 29, 1961, heavy makeup masked deep scars across her face, but nothing could hide the crutches Patsy needed to hobble onto the shell-shaped bandstand at the Cimarron Ballroom in Tulsa, Okla. The 28-year-old legend asked for a stool to sit on, then sang for the first time since a near-fatal car accident in Madision, Tenn...." No, this song is not "rare", as it is from the "Live at the Cimarron Ballroom" CD that was released in the late 90s... but what a blessing it is to hear her sing it! For those of you who are not familiar with the story of the Cimarron tapes: After Patsy died, her widower sold her "dream house" to singer Wilma Burgess. He left some boxes in the basement, telling Wilma he'd be back for them. Well.. he never came back for them, and Wilma sold the house when her career slowed. She sold some of what Charlie never came back for, and gave some of it away. Ten years later, Wilma's brother Ken, a jeweler, sold a tape player to another jeweler, William Frazee, for $50. To sweeten the deal, he threw in a couple of dozen tapes. One of them, he mentioned, was a recording of a Patsy Cline show. More of a rock 'n' roll fan at the time, Frazee left the tape untouched until the early 1990s, when a friend in the music business suggested that it might be valuable.

Dottie West - Greatest Hits

West performing all her chart-toppers live at Church Street Station in Orlando.
This exhilarating performance recorded live at the Church Street Station Theatre in Orlando, Florida (1984) features Dottie West with special guests Freddie Weller and Tom Wopat. West was one of the most successful and controversial performers to rise to popularity during the Nashville sound era. Like her friend and mentor Patsy Cline, West's battles for identity and respect within the male-dominated country music hierarchy were instrumental in enabling other female artists to gain control over the directions of their careers. West earned her first Top 40 hit in 1963 and was the first female country artist to win a Grammy Award for the chart-topper "Here Comes My Baby." A string of hits followed, including a pair of number ones with "What Are We Doin' in Love" and "A Lesson in Leavin'." She performs all these songs and more on this spectacular DVD.

Walkin' After Midnight written by Alan Block and Donn Hecht performed by Patsy Cline with Owen Bradley, Grady Martin, and Hank Garland live from, possibly, Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts (CBS-TV), 28 January 1957* In January 1957, Cline was invited to perform a song on the CBS television program hosted by Arthur Godfrey entitled, Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts. The formula for the show was simple enough. "Scouts" brought on their discoveries to a converted New York theater to perform before a live studio audience. Most of these "discoveries" were in fact struggling professionals looking for a break, and so the quality of the talent was quite high. At the program's conclusion, the studio audience selected the winner by way of an applause meter. Cline's scout, actually her mother Hilda Hensley, presented Patsy to sing one of her recent recordings (and upcoming Decca release), "Walkin' After Midnight." Originally, Patsy intended to performed the flip side, "A Poor Man's Roses (Or a Rich Man's Gold)," but the producers of the show preferred "Walkin' After Midnight". She performed the song during the 8:30 slot of the program. The applause meter on the show had a technical difficulty and froze during her performance due to the excessive amount of applause from the audience. Because of the great amount of applause, Cline won first place in the show that night. In relation to this clip, here is the problem.

Patsy Cline LIVE :: When My Dreamboat Comes Home
"On the night of July 29, 1961, heavy makeup masked deep scars across her face, but nothing could hide the crutches Patsy needed to hobble onto the shell-shaped bandstand at the Cimarron Ballroom in Tulsa, Okla. The 28-year-old legend asked for a stool to sit on, then sang for the first time since a near-fatal car accident in Madision, Tenn...." No, this song is not "rare", as it is from the "Live at the Cimarron Ballroom" CD that was released in the late 90s... but what a blessing it is to hear her sing it! For those of you who are not familiar with the story of the Cimarron tapes: After Patsy died, her widower sold her "dream house" to singer Wilma Burgess. He left some boxes in the basement, telling Wilma he'd be back for them. Well.. he never came back for them, and Wilma sold the house when her career slowed. She sold some of what Charlie never came back for, and gave some of it away. Ten years later, Wilma's brother Ken, a jeweler, sold a tape player to another jeweler, William Frazee, for $50. To sweeten the deal, he threw in a couple of dozen tapes. One of them, he mentioned, was a recording of a Patsy Cline show. More of a rock 'n' roll fan at the time, Frazee left the tape untouched until the early 1990s, when a friend in the music business suggested that it might be valuable.

On Walking
What many of us take for granted as a rather mundane activity is elevated for others into a creative, spiritual or philosophical meditation. Drawing on the writings of a Buddhist monk, the artist Richard Long and the Danish philosopher Kierkegaard, among others, Melissa Viney explores walking's physical and psychological benefits. Also, with music from Herb Alpert, Mozart, Ella and Elvis. And she talks to Mark Hennessy, who's having to learn to walk all over again following a brain injury. Readers: Emma Fielding and Jonathan Keeble Producer: Alan Hall A Falling Tree production for BBC Radio 4.

Patsy Cline - Three Cigarettes in an Ashtray
Two cigarettes in an ashtray, My love and I in a small cafe. Then a stranger came along, And everything went wrong. Now there's three cigarettes in the ashtray. I watched her take him from me, And his love is no longer my own. Now they are gone, and I sit alone, And watch one cigarette burn away. I watched her take him from me, And his love is no longer my own. Now they are gone, and I sit alone, And watch one cigarette burn away.

Live: Patsy Cline - Walkin' After Midnight
Walkin' After Midnight written by Alan Block and Donn Hecht performed by Patsy Cline with Owen Bradley, Grady Martin, and Hank Garland live from, possibly, Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts (CBS-TV), 28 January 1957* In January 1957, Cline was invited to perform a song on the CBS television program hosted by Arthur Godfrey entitled, Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts. The formula for the show was simple enough. "Scouts" brought on their discoveries to a converted New York theater to perform before a live studio audience. Most of these "discoveries" were in fact struggling professionals looking for a break, and so the quality of the talent was quite high. At the program's conclusion, the studio audience selected the winner by way of an applause meter. Cline's scout, actually her mother Hilda Hensley, presented Patsy to sing one of her recent recordings (and upcoming Decca release), "Walkin' After Midnight." Originally, Patsy intended to performed the flip side, "A Poor Man's Roses (Or a Rich Man's Gold)," but the producers of the show preferred "Walkin' After Midnight". She performed the song during the 8:30 slot of the program. The applause meter on the show had a technical difficulty and froze during her performance due to the excessive amount of applause from the audience. Because of the great amount of applause, Cline won first place in the show that night. In relation to this clip, here is the problem. For years, I have always associtaed the above mentioned event with this ...

Patsy Cline (September 8, 1932 – March 5, 1963), born Virginia Patterson Hensley, was an American country music singer as part of the early 1960s Nashville sound. Cline successfully "crossed over" to pop music. At age 30, she died at the height of her career in a private plane crash. She was one of the most influential, successful and acclaimed female vocalists of the 20th century.[1][2]
Cline was best known for her rich tone, emotionally expressive and bold contralto voice[3] and her role as a country music industry pioneer. She helped pave the way for women as headline performers in the genre. Cline's was cited as an inspiration by singers in several genres.[4] Books, movies, documentaries, articles and stage plays document her life and career.
Her hits began in 1957 with Donn Hecht's "Walkin' After Midnight", Harlan Howard's "I Fall to Pieces", Hank Cochran's "She's Got You", Willie Nelson's "Crazy" and ended in 1963 with Don Gibson's "Sweet Dreams".
Posthumously, millions of her records sold over a 50-year span. She won awards and accolades, leading some fans to view her as an icon at the level of Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley. Ten years after her death, in 1973, she became the first female solo artist inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame. In 1999, she was voted number 11 on VH1's special, The 100 Greatest Women in Rock and Roll, by members and artists of the rock industry.[5] In 2002, country music artists and industry members voted her Number One on CMT's The 40 Greatest Women of Country Music and ranked 46th in the "100 Greatest Singers of All Time" issue of Rolling Stone magazine. According to her 1973 Country Music Hall of Fame plaque, "Her heritage of timeless recordings is testimony to her artistic capacity."

Early years[link]
Childhood[link]
Cline was born Virginia Patterson Hensley in 1932, in Winchester, Virginia, to Hilda Patterson Hensley, a 16-year-old seamstress, and Sam Hensley, a 43-year-old blacksmith. Patsy soon had a younger brother and sister, Samuel and Sylvia; the siblings were called Ginny, John, and Sis. The family moved often before settling in Winchester when Patsy was 8. She grew up "on the wrong side of the tracks". Sam deserted his family in 1947, but the Hensley home was reportedly quite happy.[6]
Cline was introduced to music at an early age, singing in church with her mother. She admired stars such as Kay Starr, Jo Stafford, Hank Williams, Judy Garland, and Shirley Temple. She had perfect pitch. She was self-taught and could not read music.
When she was thirteen, she was hospitalized with a throat infection and rheumatic fever. "The fever affected my throat and when I recovered I had this booming voice like Kate Smith".[7]
Teen years[link]
To help support her family after her father abandoned them, she dropped out of high school and worked various jobs, often performing as a soda jerk and waitress by day at The Triangle Diner[8] across the street from her school, John Handley High.
After several weeks of watching performers through the window at her local radio station, she asked WINC-AM disc jockey and talent co-ordinator Jimmy McCoy if she could sing on his show. Her first performance on radio in 1947 was so well received that she was asked back. This led to performances at local nightclubs, wearing fringed Western stage outfits that her mother made from Patsy's designs.
Cline performed in variety and talent showcases in and around the Winchester and Tri-State areas. Coupled with increasing appearances on local radio, she attracted a large following. In 1954 Jimmy Dean, a young country star in his own right, learned of her and she became a regular with Dean on Connie B. Gay's Town and Country Jamboree radio show, airing weekday afternoons live on WARL-AM in Washington, D.C..
First marriage[link]
She married contractor Gerald Cline in 1953 and divorced him in 1957. The dissolution of that marriage was blamed on their considerable age difference and on the conflict between her desire to sing professionally and his desire that she adopt the conventional role of a housewife.
Recording career[link]
Four Star Records[link]
Bill Peer, her second manager, gave her the name Patsy, from her middle name and her mother's maiden name, Patterson. In 1955 he got her a contract at Four Star Records, the label with which he was then affiliated. Four Star was under contract to the Coral subsidiary of Decca Records. Patsy signed with Decca at her first opportunity three years later.
Her first contract allowed her to record compositions only by Four Star writers, which Cline found limiting. Later, she expressed regret over signing with the label, but thinking that nobody else would have her, she took the deal. Her first record for Four Star was "A Church, A Courtroom & Then Good-Bye", which attracted little attention, although it led to appearances on the Grand Ole Opry. As these performances were not "records" per se, they were not governed by her contract, and she could sing what she wanted, within reason. This somewhat eased her "stifled" feeling.
Between 1955 and 1957, Cline recorded honky tonk material, with songs like "Fingerprints", "Pick Me Up On Your Way Down", "Don't Ever Leave Me Again", and "A Stranger In My Arms". Cline cowrote the latter two. None of these songs gained notable success. She experimented with rockabilly.
According to Decca Records producer Owen Bradley, the Four Star compositions only hinted at Patsy's potential. Bradley thought that her voice was best-suited for pop music, but Cline sided with Peer and the other Four Star producers, insisting that she could only record country songs, as her contract also stated. Every time Bradley tried to get her to sing the torch songs that would become her signature, she would panic, missing her familiar banjo and steel guitar. She recorded 51 songs with Four Star.
Arthur Godfrey and "Walkin' After Midnight"[link]
On January 7, 1956 Cline made her network television debut on the short-lived television version of the Grand Ole Opry on ABC-TV. This was followed by an appearance on the network's Ozark Jubilee later that month,[9]:p.80 before returning to the show in April.[clarification needed]
Later that year, while looking for material for her first album, Patsy Cline,, "Walkin' After Midnight" appeared, written by Donn Hecht and Alan Block. Cline initially did not like the song because it was, according to her, "just a little old pop song." However, the song's writers and record label insisted that she record it.
In the late fall of 1956, she auditioned for Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts in New York City, and was accepted to sing on the CBS-TV show on January 21, 1957. Godfrey's "discovery" of Cline was typical. Her scout, actually her mother, presented Patsy who initially was supposed to sing "A Poor Man's Roses (Or a Rich Man's Gold)", but the show's producers insisted she sing "Walkin' After Midnight" instead. Though heralded as a country song, recorded in Nashville, Godfrey's staff insisted that Cline appear in a cocktail dress rather than in one of her mother's hand-crafted cowgirl outfits.
The audience's enthusiastic ovations pushed the applause meter to its apex, winning the competition for her. After the Godfrey show, listeners began calling their local radio stations to request the song, so she released it as a single. Although Cline had been performing for almost a decade and had appeared on national TV three times, it took Godfrey to make her a star. For a couple of months thereafter, Cline appeared regularly on Godfrey's radio program. Disagreements over creative control caused her to move on.
"Walkin' After Midnight" reached No. 2 on the country chart and No. 12 on the pop chart, making Cline one of the first country singers to have a crossover pop hit. The single drove her success for the next year or so. She stayed visible by making personal appearances and performing regularly on Godfrey’s show, as well as performing for several years on Ozark Jubilee (later Jubilee USA). She had no other hits with Four Star.[10]
Cline composed and recorded "A Stranger in My Arms" and "Don't Ever Leave Me Again" in 1957 under her birth name, Virginia Hensley.
A month after her recording session, she met Charlie Dick, a good-looking ladies man who frequented the local club circuit Cline played on weekends. His charisma and admiration of Cline's talents captured her attention, and their relationship resulted in a marriage that lasted until her death. Though their love affair was publicized as controversial, Cline regarded Dick as "the love of her life". After the birth of their daughter, Julie, in 1958, they moved to Nashville, Tennessee.
1961 comeback – "I Fall to Pieces"[link]
In 1959 Cline met Randy Hughes, a session guitarist and promotion man. Hughes became her manager and helped her change labels. When her Four Star contract expired in 1960, she signed with Decca Records-Nashville, directly under the direction of legendary female-singer country music producer Owen Bradley. He was responsible for much of Cline's success and positively influenced the careers of both Brenda Lee and Loretta Lynn.
Even though she was still scared of the lush Nashville Sound arrangements, Bradley considered Cline's voice best-suited for country pop-crossover songs. Bradley's direction and arrangements helped smooth her voice into the silky, torch song style for which she won fame.

Cline's first release for Decca was the country pop ballad "I Fall to Pieces" (1961), written by Hank Cochran and Harlan Howard. The song was promoted and won success on both country and pop music stations. On the country charts, the song slowly climbed to the top, garnering her first Number One ranking. In a major feat for country singers at the time, the song hit No. 12 on the pop and No. 6 on the adult contemporary charts, making her a household name and demonstrating that women could achieve as much crossover success as men.
Grand Ole Opry and Nashville scene[link]
In 1960, Cline realized a lifelong dream when the Grand Ole Opry accepted her request to join the cast, making her the only person to achieve membership in such a fashion. She became one of the Opry's biggest stars.
Even before that time, believing that there was "room enough for everybody", and confident of her abilities and appeal, Cline befriended and encouraged women starting out in the country music field at that time, including Loretta Lynn, Dottie West, Jan Howard, sixteen-year-old Brenda Lee and a thirteen year old steel-guitar player named Barbara Mandrell with whom Cline once toured, all of whom cited her as a major influence.
According to both Lynn and West, Cline always gave herself to friends, buying them groceries and furniture and even hiring them as wardrobe assistants. On occasion, she paid their rent, enabling them to stay in Nashville and continue pursuing their dreams. Honky-tonk pianist and Opry star Del Wood said, "Even when she didn't have it, she'd spend it—and not always on herself. She'd give anyone the skirt off her backside if they needed it."[9]
The Cline[link]
She cultivated a brash and gruff exterior that allowed her to be considered "one of the boys". This allowed her to befriend male artists as well, including Roger Miller, Hank Cochran, Faron Young, Ferlin Husky, Harlan Howard and Carl Perkins all of whom she socialized with at famed Nashville establishment Tootsie's Orchid Lounge, next door to the Opry. In the 1986 documentary The Real Patsy Cline, singer George Riddle said of her, "It wasn't unusual for her to sit down and have a beer and tell a joke, and she'd never be offended at the guys' jokes either, because most of the time she'd tell a joke dirtier than you! Patsy was full of life, as I remember."
Cline used the term of endearment "Hoss" to refer to her friends, both male as well as female, and referred to herself as "The Cline". Patsy met Elvis Presley in 1962 at a fundraiser for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and they exchanged phone numbers.[9] Having seen him perform during a rare Grand Ole Opry appearances, she admired his music, called him The Big Hoss, and often recorded with his backup group, The Jordanaires.
By this time, Cline controlled her own career, making it clear to all involved that she could stand up to any man, verbally and professionally, and was ready to challenge their rules if they interfered with her. In a time when concert promoters often cheated stars by promising to pay them after the show but skipping out with the money before the concert ended, Cline demanded her money before she took the stage by proclaiming: "No dough, no show", a practice that became the rule.[citation needed] According to friend Roy Drusky in the The Real Patsy Cline: "Before one concert, we hadn't been paid. And we were talking about who was going to tell the audience that we couldn't perform without pay. Patsy said, 'I'll tell 'em!' And she did!" Friend Dottie West stated in amazement some 25 years later in an interview that "It was common knowledge around town that you didn't mess with 'The Cline!'"
Car crash[link]
Cline bore a son, Randy in 1961. On June 14, she and her brother Sam were involved in a head-on collision on Old Hickory Boulevard in Nashville, the second and more serious of two crashes during her lifetime. The impact threw Cline into the windshield, nearly killing her. Upon arriving at the scene, Dottie West picked glass from Patsy's hair, and went with her in the ambulance.
When help arrived, Patsy insisted that the other car's driver be treated first, an event which had a long-term detrimental effect on Dottie. When in 1991 West was fatally injured in a car accident, she too insisted that her driver be treated first, possibly causing her own death.[11] Cline later stated that she saw the female driver of the other car die before her eyes.[11]
Cline spent a month in the hospital, suffering from a jagged cut across her forehead that required stitches, a broken wrist and a dislocated hip. Both Nassour and friend Billy Walker (who died in a vehicle accident in 2006) reported that Cline rededicated her life to Christianity while in the hospital, where she received thousands of cards and flowers from fans.[9]
When she left the hospital, her forehead was visibly scarred. For the remainder of her career, she wore wigs and makeup to hide the scars, along with headbands to relieve the forehead pressure that caused headaches if left unattended. Six weeks later, she returned to the road on crutches with a new appreciation for life.
A series of recordings entitled Patsy Cline: Live at the Cimarron Ballroom from her first concert after the crash were released in 1997 and feature dialogue of Cline interacting with the audience, reviewing her live performances. Recorded in Tulsa, Oklahoma as a sound check, these archives were found in the attic by a later owner of one of Cline's residences and were given to the family.
"Crazy"[link]
Unable to capitalize upon the success of "I Fall to Pieces" due to her hospital stay, Cline sought another recording to re-establish herself. When introduced to "Crazy", a song written by Willie Nelson, Cline expressed a vehement dislike for the composition and the inaugural recording session was unsuccessful.[12] [13]
Undertaken in the Quonset Hut (where the original Bradley's Barn Studio was located before moving to Opryland), the singer tried from the outset to record "Crazy" like Nelson's demo recording, which featured his idiosyncratic style. Cline claimed that the song was too difficult for her; not only because of the demo style, but also because her ribs, injured in the crash, made it difficult for her to reach the high notes. The problems during the session created conflict with Bradley. In an era where it had become a standard to record four songs in a three-hour period, those present at the Quonset Hut "Crazy" session had to cope with a four hour session for a single song. It was eventually decided that Cline would overdub her vocals over the best instrumental recording of the track. This came a week later when the singer's ribs had further healed. Upon returning to the studio, Cline could reach the high notes and recorded her part in a single take.[14]

The popular appeal of the final version of the recording was attributed to Bradley's management of Cline's fear of the Nashville Sound, because he convinced her to imbue the recording with her unique persona. The song become an intimate representation of Cline and is perceived to be completely unlike Nelson's version. Now considered a classic, "Crazy" ultimately became Cline's signature song.
By late 1961, "Crazy" was a crossover success, straddling the country and pop genres, and reached the Top 10 on the charts. It became Cline's biggest pop hit.[12][15] The song subsequently reached #9 on the US Hot 100 and #2 on both the Hot Country Songs and the Adult Contemporary lists. An album released in November 1961, entitled Patsy Cline Showcase, featured both of Cline's hits of that year.[citation needed] Loretta Lynn later reported on her album, I Remember Patsy, that on the night Cline premiered "Crazy" at the Grand Ole Opry, she received three standing ovations.

Cline was the first female country music star to headline her own show and receive billing above the male stars with whom she toured.
While bands typically backed up the female singer, Cline led the band through the concert instead.[clarification needed] She was so respected by men in the industry that rather than being introduced to audiences as “Pretty Miss Patsy Cline” as her female contemporaries often were, she was given a more stately introduction such as that given by Johnny Cash on their 1962 tour: “Ladies and Gentlemen, The One and Only – Patsy Cline.” As an artist, she held her fan base in extremely high regard, many of whom became friends, staying for hours after concerts to chat and sign autographs.
Cline was the first woman in country music to perform at New York’s Carnegie Hall, sharing the bill with fellow Opry members. The performance garnered sharp disapproval from gossip columnist Dorothy Kilgallen in the process—at whom Cline eloquently fired back. She headlined the famous Hollywood Bowl with Cash. Later in 1962, she became the first woman in country music to headline her own show in Las Vegas at the Mint Casino, the sign from which can still be seen at its home on Pico Boulevard near La Brea in Los Angeles.
This success enabled Cline to buy her dream home in the Goodlettsville suburb of Nashville, decorating it in her own style. It featured gold dust sprinkled in the bathroom tiles and a music room with the finest sound equipment. In The Real Patsy Cline, Lynn stated: "She called me into the front yard and said, 'Isn't this pretty? Now I'll never be happy until I have my Mama one just like it.'" Cline called it "the house that Vegas built" since the money from the Mint covered its cost. After her death in 1963, Cline's home was sold to singer Wilma Burgess who told Nassour that "strange occurrences" happened during her years there.[9]

With this new demand for Cline came higher earnings. Reportedly she was paid at least $1000 for appearances towards the end of her life—a then an unheard-of sum for country music women, whose average fee was less than $200. Her penultimate concert, held in Birmingham, Alabama, grossed $3000.[verification needed]
To match her new sophisticated sound, Cline also reinvented her personal style, shedding her trademark Western cowgirl outfits for more elegant gowns, cocktail dresses, spiked heels, and gold lame pants. In the days before Tanya's skintight leather pants and Reba's famous red dress shocked the country music establishment out of complacency, Patsy's new image was considered riskier and sexier than anything that anybody had ever seen. Country music industry personnel in those more conservative times were more accustomed to girls in gingham and calico dresses. Like her sound, Cline’s style in fashion was mocked at first, then copied. She also loved dangly earrings, ruby-red lipstick and her favorite perfume was Wind Song.
During her five-and-a-half year career, Cline received a dozen awards for her achievements, and three more following her death from the Music Reporter, Billboard Awards and Cashbox.
Cline wrote of her success in a letter to friend Anne Armstrong: "It's wonderful—but what do I do for '63? It's getting so even Cline can't follow Cline!"[16]
[edit] Sentimentally Yours
In the fall of 1961, Cline was back in the studio again to record songs for an upcoming album released in early 1962. One of the first songs[17] was "She's Got You", written by Hank Cochran. Cochran pitched the song over the phone to Cline and she fell in love with it at first listen. It became one of the few songs that she enjoyed recording. The song was released as a single in January 1962, and soon crossed over, reaching No. 14 on the pop charts, No. 3 on the adult contemporary charts (originally called "Easy Listening"), and as her second and final chart-topper, No. 1 on the country chart. She would never again enter the pop charts during her lifetime.
"She's Got You" was also Cline's first entry in the United Kingdom singles chart, reaching No. 43. The cover by Alma Cogan, one of Britain's most popular female artists of the 1960s, performed notably as well. The biggest Hit Parade UK record sales entry before her death was her version of the standard Heartaches reaching the Top 30 in late 1962.[18]
Following this success, Cline released a string of smaller country hits, including the Top 10 "When I Get Thru' With You", "Imagine That", "So Wrong", and "Heartaches". These were not big crossover hits, but still reached the Top 20 and Top 10.
In late 1962, Cline appeared on Dick Clark's American Bandstand and released her third album, Sentimentally Yours in August of that year. When asked in a WSM-AM interview about her vocal stylings, Cline stated, "Oh, I just sing like I hurt inside."
Life on the road was beginning to wear on Cline. She longed to spend more time raising her children, Julie and Randy, and was starting to talk about a hiatus. But Randy, her manager insisted that they had to strike while the iron was hot.
A month before her death, Cline was back in the Quonset Hut to record her fourth album, originally entitled Faded Love. Recording a mix of country standards and such vintage pop classics as Irving Berlin's "Always" and "Does Your Heart Beat for Me", these sessions proved to be the most contemporary-sounding of her career. The sessions featured a full string section without any conventional country music instruments. Before her death, as Owen Bradley told Patsy author Margaret Jones, he and Cline had talked of doing an album of show tunes and standards, including Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man, since Cline was such a fan of Helen Morgan, who had recorded the song back in 1927.
Cline got so involved with the stories in the songs' lyrics, she reportedly cried through most of her final sessions. The raw emotion can be plainly heard on such tracks as "Sweet Dreams" and at the end of "Faded Love". At the playback party, according to singer Jan Howard in the documentary Remembering Patsy, Cline held up a copy of her first record and a copy of her newest tracks and stated, "Well, here it is...the first and the last."
Death[link]
Twenty-eight days later, according to Tennessee State Trooper Troy Odle, Patsy Cline died in "one of the worst wrecks in the country", along with her manager Randy Hughes and long-time country musicians Hawkshaw Hawkins and Cowboy Copas.
Cline's flight encountered inclement weather and crashed on the evening of March 5, 1963. Her recovered wristwatch had stopped at approximately 6:20 pm. The plane wreckage was located appromimately 90 miles (140 km) from its Nashville destination in a forest outside Camden, Tennessee. Forensic examinations concluded that everyone aboard had been killed instantaneously from their injuries and did not suffer.[19][20] Until the wreckage was discovered the following dawn and reported on the radio, friends and family had not given up hope. Endless repetitions of calls such as "Did you hear anything?" "No, did you?" tied up the local telephone exchanges to such a degree that other emergencies occurring over the same period had trouble getting through. The lights at the destination Cornelia Fort Airpark were kept on throughout the night as reports of the missing plane were broadcast on radio and TV.
Friends Dottie West, June Carter Cash, and Loretta Lynn recalled Cline telling them during 1962–1963 that she felt a sense of impending doom and did not expect to live much longer.[21] Cline, known for her generosity, had begun giving away personal items to friends, writing her will on Delta Air Lines stationery and asking close friends to care for her children should anything happen to her. She told Jordanaires back-up singer Ray Walker as she exited the Grand Ole Opry the week before her death: "Honey, I've had two bad ones (accidents). The third one will either be a charm or it'll kill me."
Reports vary as to whether Cline, ill with the flu, gave two or three performances at a show held on March 3. Some sources say the shows were at 2 p.m. and 5:15 p.m., but other sources say an 8 p.m. show was added due to popular demand. The performance was a benefit, held at the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hall, Kansas City, Kansas for the family of disc jockey Cactus Jack Call. He had died in an automobile crash a little over a month earlier. Call was a longtime DJ for KCKN, but had switched to KCMK a week before his death in January 25, 1963 at the age of 39.[22] Also performing on the show were George Jones, George Riddle and The Jones Boys, Billy Walker, Dottie West, Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper, George McCormick, the Clinch Mountain Boys as well as Copas and Hawkins.
The shows were standing-room only. For the 2 p.m. show, she wore a sky-blue tulle-laden dress, for the 5:15 show a red shocker, and for the closing show at 8 p.m., Cline wore white chiffon and closed the show to a thunderous ovation. Her final song was the last she had recorded the previous month, "I'll Sail My Ship Alone".
Cline, who had spent the night at the Town House Motor Hotel, was unable to fly out the day after the concert because Fairfax Airport was fogged in. West asked Patsy to ride in the car with her and husband, Bill, back to Nashville (approximately a 16 hour drive), but Cline refused, saying, "Don't worry about me, Hoss. When it's my time to go, it's my time." She called her mother from the motel and checked out at 12:30 p.m. to go the short distance to the airport to board the Piper Comanche. The plane stopped once in Missouri to refuel and subsequently landed at Dyersburg Municipal Airport in Dyersburg, Tennessee at 5 p.m.[23]
Hughes was the pilot, but was not trained in instrument flying. Hawkins had accepted Billy Walker's seat after Walker left on a commercial flight to take care of a stricken family member. The Dyersburg, Tennessee airfield manager suggested that they stay the night after advising of high winds and inclement weather, and even offered them free rooms and meals, but Hughes responded, "I've already come this far. We'll be there before you know it." The plane took off at 6:07 PM. (Hughes' flight instructor had also trained Jim Reeves, whose plane crashed the following year. Neither pilot was instrument-rated and both attempted to fly by sight—impossible in the driving rain faced by both flights.)
Early the following morning, Roger Miller and his friend went searching for survivors: "As fast as I could, I ran through the woods screaming their names—through the brush and the trees, and I came up over this little rise, oh, my God, there they were. It was ghastly. The plane had crashed nose down"[20] Shortly after the bodies were removed, looters scavenged the area. Some of the items which were recovered were eventually donated to The Country Music Hall of Fame. Included in those donations were Cline's wrist watch, Confederate flag cigarette lighter, studded belt and three pairs of gold lamé slippers. Cline's fee and attire from that last performance were never recovered.[20]
As per her wishes, Cline was brought home for her memorial service, which thousands attended. She was buried at Shenandoah Memorial Park in her hometown of Winchester, Virginia. Her grave is marked with a bronze plaque, which reads: "Virginia H (Patsy) Cline 'Death Cannot Kill What Never Dies: Love'". With the help of Lynn and West, a bell tower was erected at the cemetery in her memory, which plays hymns daily at 6:00 p.m., the hour of her death. Another memorial marks the exact place off Fire Tower Road in Fatty Bottom, Tennessee, where the plane crashed in the still-remote forest outside of Camden.
Family[link]
Cline’s mother, Hilda Hensley, died in 1998 of natural causes at 82, while her father died of cirrhosis of the liver in the mid-1950s. Mrs. Hensley lived as an accomplished seamstress in Winchester, Virginia, helping to raise her grandchildren, and rarely granted interviews. Cline's daughter, Julie Dick Fudge, stated in 1985: "Grannie loved my mother so much that it's still hard for her to talk about (the accident)." In her later years, Hensley stated "I never knew so many people loved my daughter" about the outpouring of love by Cline's fans.
As Hilda was only 16 years older than Patsy, the two were very close. She Cline commented that her mother was the one person she could always depend on, and Hensley commented that Patsy was a "wonderful daughter" who never let her family down in hard times. Cline's brother died in 2004 Her sister still lives in Virginia.
As of 2011 husband Charlie Dick resided in Nashville, producing documentaries on his late wife and attending fan functions. He married singer Jamey Ryan in 1965, who signed a brief contract with Columbia Records before bearing a son. They divorced in the early 1970s. In the film Sweet Dreams, Ryan provided the vocals for three songs: "Bill Bailey, Won't You Please Come Home", "Rollin' in My Sweet Baby's Arms" and "Blue Christmas" (a tune Cline never recorded).
Daughter Julie joins him in representing Cline’s estate at public functions and has four children (one, Virginia, named for Cline, was killed in an automobile accident in 1994) and six grandchildren. Son Randy was a drummer for a Nashville band for a time, and Charlie's younger brother, Uncle Mel as he is known to fans, heads up the "Always... Patsy Cline" fan organization.
Legacy[link]
Impact and influence[link]
In the 2003 book Remembering Patsy, guitarist-producer Harold Bradley said of Cline: "She's taken the standards for being a country music vocalist, and raised the bar. Even now, women, are trying to get to that bar.... If you're going to be a country singer, and if you're not going to copy her – and most people do come to town doing just that – then you have to be aware of her technique. It's always good to know what was in the past because someone might think they're pretty hot until they hear her.... It gives all the female singers coming in something to gauge their talents against. And I expect it will forever."
When Cline made her first commercial recordings in 1955, Kitty Wells was the top female vocalist in the field. By the time Cline broke through as a consistent hit-maker in 1961, Wells, known as The Queen of Country Music, was still country's biggest female star. Cline dethroned her in 1961 however by winning the Billboard Magazine Award for Favorite Female Country & Western Artist for two years in a row as well as the Music Reporter Star of The Year Award for 1962.
Given that Cline's full-throated sophisticated sound was a marked contrast to Wells' pure-country, quivering vocals, the two country queens could not have been more different. Though Cline had gained attention on country and pop charts, she did not think of herself as anything other than a country singer and was known for her humility in her motto: "I don't want to get rich – just live good."

1963–1985[link]
Three of her songs became posthumous Top 10 Country hits: "Sweet Dreams", "Leavin' on Your Mind" and "Faded Love". Starting that June, more albums of unreleased material followed, beginning with The Patsy Cline Story and A Portrait of Patsy Cline, released the following Spring. The Story album replaced Cline's planned fourth album, originally to have been titled Faded Love and released that March. The majority of the all-Bradley-produced tracks featured the legendary back-up vocal group The Jordanaires, who also appeared on many albums featuring Elvis Presley and Connie Francis during the period. The cover photo and design of the Story album, featuring Patsy in a smoky haze of gold, with simple titles across the top, is considered to be the first contemporary album cover art in country music history.[citation needed]
By the 1960s, MCA had acquired Decca and continued to issue Cline albums up to the early 1970s, garnering the artist several posthumous hits along the way. Some of the more notable start in early 1964 with a Top 25 country hit "He Called Me Baby", a song recorded during her "last sessions" in 1963. The track was released on her 1964 album That's How a Heartache Begins. Her Greatest Hits album, released in 1967, continues to occasionally appear on the country music charts and was the longest album to stay on the country charts in country music history until Garth Brooks surpassed it in the 1990s. The album still holds the record for an album by a female artist.
In 1973 Cline was the first female solo artist to be elected into The Country Music Hall of Fame. Johnny Cash announced the honor for the live CMA Awards show, televised from Ryman Auditorium. Along with the standard induction bronze plaque, the hall houses a few of Cline's stage outfits, personal effects recovered from the crash site, including her "Dixie" cigarette lighter, donated by singer Carl Perkins and letters to her fan club president Louise Seger, about whom the musical Always, Patsy Cline was created.
MCA continued to release Singles throughout much of the 1970s, but none charted.
In the late 1970s, Cline’s name occasionally appeared in magazine articles and television interviews with West and Lynn, who credited her with inspiration for their success. Shortly after stating in her 1976 autobiography that she would never record an album of Patsy's hits "because it would hurt too much", Lynn did just that a year later.
The tribute album entitled I Remember Patsy, was released in 1977 and contained the single "She's Got You" a hit with Cline in 1962 and renditions of other Cline favorites such as Crazy, Back in Baby's Arms and Sweet Dreams. The candid interview which closes the album, recorded with producer Owen Bradley late one night between sessions, gives an intimate look at the ordinary backstage life of a country superstar who was still a housewife and mother – "washing the clothes and waxing the floor".
These encounters Lynn led Ellis Nassour, then-manager of MCA artist relations, to create a series of magazine profiles, and ultimately to write Honky Tonk Angel, the first of his two biographies.[9] The book featured interviews with Cline's mother, both husbands and intimate friends and peers such as West, Brenda Lee and Faron Young.
Lynn's own 1976 autobiography, Coal Miner's Daughter, featured an entire chapter dedicated to her friendship with Cline. Viewers were reintroduced to Patsy when the biopic of the same name was released four years later. After Coal Miner's Daughter opened big, MCA re-released "Always". The soundtrack released used the original 1963 vocal and overdubs by many of the Nashville Sound musicians who had been a part of the original scene. The song reached No. 18 on the Hot Country Songs list in 1980. The following year, two electronically produced duets were released between Cline and Jim Reeves, another legendary country singer who died the year after Cline in another plane crash. Their duet of "Have You Ever Been Lonely (Have You Ever Been Blue)" was a No. 5 country hit that year and their duet of "I Fall to Pieces" became an interesting footnote in music history. Like Cline, Reeves gained a massive fan following his death, as well as a string of re-issued singles.
In 1983 the movie Sweet Dreams and in 1990 the book Patsy by Margaret Jones appeared, based on research by Bernard Schwartz.
1990–2000[link]
In 1992, the U.S. Postal Service created special-issue postage stamps to honor Patsy Cline, along with other country superstars such as Hank Williams, the Carter Family and Bob Wills.
MCA released a 4-disc comprehensive collection of much of her Four Star and Decca discography, called The Patsy Cline Collection. This boxed set, featuring remixed and remastered sound, included a booklet featuring rare photos and chronicling her short career. According to SoundScan, the set remained one of the top 10 bestselling boxed collections in the record industry as of 2010.
A Patsy Cline exhibit was featured in 1993 when the Grand Ole Opry opened its doors in Nashville for its inaugural season. Several of her awards, stage outfits, wigs, make-up, hairbrush, and a fully furnished replica of her dream home’s music room were on display. The year marked the 30th anniversary of her death, so the Opry made its Saturday night segment as a tribute to Cline, Hawkins and Copas. With Cline's widower, Charlie, and their daughter, Julie, on hand, her longtime friend Jan Howard paid tribute to Cline, singing "I Fall to Pieces", co-written by her ex-husband, Harlan Howard, followed by Lynn, performing the classic "She's Got You".
Later that year, Lynn, Dolly Parton and Tammy Wynette included Cline's cover of "Lovesick Blues" on their Honky Tonk Angels trio album, singing along with Cline's original vocals lifted off the early multi-track tapes. A year later, Cline became a member of the Texas Cowgirl Hall of Fame.
The Delta (TV series) starring Delta Burke featured the actress as a Nashville waitress trying to make it into country music. The show referenced Patsy Cline throughout its run, and included several Burke covers of Cline's hits. In one episode she paid homage to Cline's grave, where she meets another mourner, singer Tanya Tucker.
Cline was portrayed on film again in the 1995 CBS biopic Big Dreams and Broken Hearts: The Dottie West Story,. At that year's Grammy Awards, Cline was honored with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, by Barbra Streisand and Peggy Lee. On the Grand Ole Opry's 70th Anniversary Special on CBS, singer Martina McBride celebrated her induction as the Opry's newest member by paying tribute to Cline with her version of "Crazy."
In 1996, thirteen-year-old LeAnn Rimes was discovered by Dallas disc jockey, songwriter, and promoter Bill Mack. The center of Mack's plan to introduce Rimes was to give her his composition, "Blue," which he had released as a single in the late 1950s (covered by several artists prior to Rimes). "Blue" was slated for Cline when his version did not become popular, but she died before recording it.
In 1997, Cline's recording of "Crazy" was named the number one jukebox hit of all time; "I Fall to Pieces" came in at No. 17. In 1998, she was nominated to The Hollywood Walk of Fame by a dedicated fan, and received her star in 1999; later a street was named after her on the back lot of Universal Studios.
Also in 1999, VH1 named Cline number eleven on its 100 Greatest Women of Rock and Roll. She was also honored with the Nashville Golden Voice Award in its Legend Category that same year. Singer Trisha Yearwood celebrated her induction to the Opry by paying tribute to Cline, singing "Sweet Dreams" and receiving a necklace worn by Cline to commemorate the event from Charlie and Julie.
2000–present[link]
In 2002, CMT named her number one on its 40 Greatest Women of Country Music, voted by members of the music industry. She was followed by women who had said she inspired them, Tammy Wynette and Loretta Lynn.
Cline's hit song, "I Fall to Pieces" was listed at No. 107 on RIAA's list of Songs of the Century in 2001. Lynn released a sequel to her autobiography, Coal Miner's Daughter, called Still Woman Enough and again dedicated a chapter to her friendship with Cline (called "Still Thinking of Patsy"). One of Lynn's daughters is named after Cline, and one of Brenda Lee's daughter's is named after Cline's daughter, Julie.
Throughout her career, country legend Reba McEntire cited Cline as a childhood inspiration and, upon reaching stardom in the 1980s, featured Cline's hits on a number of her early albums. For a number of years, McEntire closed all her live shows with "Sweet Dreams", but stopped after closing a show with it hours before the airplane carrying her band crashed in the pre-dawn hours of March 15, 1991, killing everyone aboard. Six months later, Dottie West would ultimately die from injuries sustained in a car crash not unlike the 1961 crash which scarred Patsy.
Early in 2005, Patsy Cline’s Greatest Hits was certified by the RIAA as Diamond, recognizing the sale of 10 million copies. The album was listed as Longest-Charting Title by a Female Artist in the 2005 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records. For its 40th anniversary reissue in 2007, Bob Ludwig remastered the album and featured the original 1967 cover art.[24]
Later that year, her childhood home in Winchester, Virginia was awarded a prominent on-site marker cast in bronze for an honored place on The National Register of Historic Places. The house was placed on the Virginia Landmarks Register and features a State of Virginia Historical Marker on the street in front of the house. Cline was further memorialized on a slab of concrete in Owen Bradley Park in downtown Nashville, featuring three of the hits that she and Bradley made famous. On the life-size grand piano upon which Bradley's statue sits is the sheet music for "I Fall to Pieces".
Each year, on Labor Day weekend, thousands of fans celebrate Patsy's birthday at Shenandoah Memorial Gardens. Husband Charlie, daughter Julie and all of the grandchildren and great-grandchildren as well as other family members attended the 20th annual gathering on September 8, 2007.
After a multi-million dollar renovation at her former school, built in 1923, authorities dedicated "The Patsy Cline Theatre" there in the summer of 2009. The dedication was celebrated with a concert by longtime Patsy Cline friend and songwriter Willie Nelson.
The following year, the "Patsy Cline Classic" at the theater welcomed Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members The Beach Boys on October 5, 2010.
In 2011, her childhood home opened for public tours, proceeds from which benefit a number of organizations dedicated to keeping Patsy's memory alive for future generations.

In Coal Miner's Daughter, Beverly D'Angelo portrayed Patsy alongside Sissy Spacek as Lynn. The film gained a wide audience. Instead of lip-synching to the original as was common during the period, both actresses sang. Contrary to the movie script, Cline and Lynn never toured together. Cline never owned a bus and stars during her time usually traveled in caravans and limousines.
In 1985, HBO/Tri Star Pictures released Sweet Dreams: The Life and Times of Patsy Cline, starring Jessica Lange in the lead role with Ed Harris and Ann Wedgeworth as her husband Charlie Dick and her mother Hilda Hensley respectively. The film was based on research by Bernard Schwartz. Lange lip-synched to Cline's original vocals.
The film depicted Cline's marriage to Dick as abusive, portraying Cline as a victim of domestic violence, however, as Dottie West commented in a 1986 interview: "It was always very interesting to watch – because you always knew Patsy was going to win! He was her man. He was her lover." Cline's mother was quoted in a 1985 issue of People saying "The producers told me they were going to make a love story. I saw the film once. That was enough. Jessica (Lange) did well with what she had to work with". Charlie Dick stated in the same article: "It's a great film – if you like fiction." The remainder of Cline’s family and close friends claimed that numerous sequences in the film had been inaccurately fictionalized for Hollywood and were not pleased with the final product.
The picture became a hit and Lange was nominated for an Academy Award for her performance, one that she credited as a favorite. The soundtrack, featuring several numbers overdubbed with a new orchestral arrangement, was a success, and Cline’s recordings began to climb the charts again.
Since the earlier overdubbed recordings had done so well, Bradley and arranger Bill McElhiney laid her original vocals onto a digitally-recorded background for a fresh new sound. These new recordings returned Cline's voice to attention once again, producing several hits with Walkin' After Midnight Lovesick Blues and Foolin' Round from the soundtrack.
Subsequently, a more accurate series of video documentaries was produced, including most recently Sweet Dreams Still: The Live Collection as well as The Real Patsy Cline and Remembering Patsy. The latter was re-edited and used on the show Biography on the A&E Cable Channel in the mid 1990s.
Ten years after Sweet Dreams, Patsy was portrayed again in Big Dreams and Broken Hearts: The Dottie West Story, a 1995 CBS made-for-television movie featuring Tere Myers as Patsy and Michelle Lee as Dottie. In 2007, a biopic entitled Crazy about the life of Hank Garland, lead guitarist on many of Patsy's records, featured Mandy Barnett of Always...Patsy Cline fame as Patsy.

A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline, created by Dean Regan, and Always...Patsy Cline are the only plays approved by the Patsy Cline Estate and licensed by Legacy, Inc., the family company.
A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline, created by Dean Regan in 1991, is a musical tribute which showcases her life and music. It has been produced across the United States and Canada with multiple productions by the Springer Opera House and Troupe America, Inc. It ran under the name Patsy! at the Grand Palace in Branson, Missouri for a year, starring Gail Bliss as Patsy Cline. Other celebrated performers in the role are Julie Johnson, Sara-Jeanne Hosie and Bridget Beirne.
Always...Patsy Cline, produced by Ted Swindley, premiered in 1993. The story was taken and expanded from a section of the Cline biography, Honky Tonk Angel. It chronicled the real-life story of her encounter in 1961 with Louise Seger, a fan and Mississippi native who arrived early at The Esquire Ballroom in Houston for Cline's performance. In a chance encounter before the show, the two met and formed a lasting friendship.
In the musical, Cline expresses her worry to Seger over the attendance that night, and Seger tells her she'll have no problem filling the hall. She later persuades Cline to spend the night at her house rather than a hotel. They stay up all night talking, and do a radio spot in the morning.
The musical relied on letters that Seger received from Cline over the period prior to the singer's death. They gave the audience an up-close look at Patsy's daily life. The title of the musical came from the sign-off Cline used at the end of each letter. The revue has played across the U.S., running off-Broadway in New York City and for over a year at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, where it sold out nightly, starring singer Mandy Barnett.
