You personally got me a list of names to things I would never listen to and I love your reactions and I give you credit bro open it up and try new things because I gotta tell you it’s something I’ve never done until I started listening to your reactions and it has me thinking on a whole Nother level now WOW !’n
What a nice compliment your remark is for a channel like this, I trust.. I'll be a little tangential, but . . . Years ago, in the Coke vs. Pepsi "Cola Wars" days, consumer reports did a taste test of many different colas. They mentioned that if one were to simply taste the cola as a cola, they might find that even some very generic store brands could have qualities that may well appeal to your particular pallet more than one of the kings of the market place. I'm not always able to bring that kind of open mind to experiencing something new - to "perceive" rather than "judge" whatever it is - but I wish I could do that more often. Good on you for letting some encouragement help open your mind and find some real veins of gold in them thar hills ! B---)
Patsy is considered to be the most influential female singer of the 20th century. She was the first female cross over artist to hit both country and pop charts. She only had an 8 year career as she died in a plane crash at the ago of 30.
They didn't know who patsy Cline is?? For real?? If so I don't know why not. If in music you should know about music! There is movies and biographies made about her. Loretta Lynn. Etc.
I am a hospice nurse. One of my first patients just died at 91 years old. Her life was unfairly difficult and painful. I care about all my patients but my connection with her was so special. The hospice I work with doesn't have a music therapist. My parents are 84 and 88 and I grew up listening to Patsy Cline. I try to get to know what my patients liked when they were younger and meet them there. My patient loved Patsy and I sang these songs to her at every visit. She had horrible trauma in her past but music brought her so much joy.
Patsy died in a plane crash coming home from a charity concert in 1963 at the ripe old age of 30. She had the purest voice country music has ever known, but, as they say, only the good die young. Amazingly, she survived an automobile accident in 1961 that almost killed her and kept her hospitalized for over a month. Her career was short but her legacy is forever.
Too many singers today think that just belting, being loud, doing runs the whole song is selling the song. No, the quietness, the strength, the storytelling, the drawing you in to listen to every word. That is the power.
No one could have said that better. Maybe it should be required for aspiring singers to listen to some of the legends who could stop people in their tracks, hanging on every word, every breath. It doesn't get any better. The power in stillness. Another great song from Patsy is Faded Love. It haunted Patsy's husband after the plane crash that killed her. He played it over and over, telling friends "I can hear her take a breath at the end. How can she be dead?"
That's why I prefer Dolly Parton's original version of *"I Will Always Love You"* over Whitney's version and why I prefer Carol Kings jazzy version of *"Natural Woman"* over Aretha's version, now I love all 4 versions, and Aretha was the original version that was released, even though Carol and her husband wrote the song.
And possible worse. They think hitting perfectly square on the note is correct and desirable, which is why music sounds so drained of all feeling. Being slightly flat or sharp is not an error that needs to be fixed; those small errors is why a voice sounds emotional and if you tune that out in post you get something bland and emotionless.
Loretta Lynn was her best friend. The song was written by Willie Nelson. She had been hospitalized right before see the band on her head hiding stitches. She died in plane crash soon after.
When Willie Nelson first wrote this song, no country singer wanted to record it because it contains several chords, more than the three chords that was standard for country songs at the time. But Patsy Cline's manager, Owen Bradley, urged her to record it, presumably because he knew that she would have no problem with all of the chord changes. Unfortunately, in the first recording session, Patsy was in pain from bruised ribs from a recent car accident, which prevented her from hitting some of the notes. She took three weeks off to recover, and when she returned, she nailed the song in one take. Crazy.
Crazy, Sweet Dreams, I Go out Walking (after Midnight), I Fall to Pieces, etc were all absolute jewels from the wonderful, legendary Country singer Patsy Cline.
At 13, Patsy was hospitalized with a throat infection and rheumatic fever. She said after she recovered she had this booming voice. 1973, she was the first female solo artist inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. On the night Patsy premiered "Crazy" at the Grand Ole Opry, she recieved three standing ovations.
Patsy Cline is the hallmark of vocal perfection. The urgency and inflection of her delivery is impeccable. She is the Queen of ALL music. No one ever delivered like Patsy Cline.
Have you noticed how so many 'old time' singers just stand and sing, letting the song and the voice do the work. And compare how modestly the women dressed in those days compared with today's singers. This is such a beautiful song.
I don't know about that. Dolly Parton has always said it takes a lot of money to look that cheap... :) Check out clips from the TV show "Beste Zangers" for other singers who rely on voice and connection to the audience. Each season they invite a mixed group of Dutch talent to perform each other's most-loved songs. One year, that included operatic baritone Henk Poort performing "Phantom of the Opera" with Floor Jansen, lead singer of the metal band Nightwish.
Funny you should mention the modest way women of that era dressed. I was thinking the exact thing as I watched this reaction. Those women depended solely on their talent and not their ability to entice with their bodies, like so many today seem to think they need to.
My interpretation of her sad passing is the country version of "The Day the Music Died". The plane crash not only killed Patsy but also two other country music legends...Cowboy Copas & Hawkshaw Hawkins.
The simple music so beautifully played, and the simple background vocals are done so as NOT to over shadow or compete with the strong voice of Patsy Cline.
She is 1 in a million! Died on a plane crash. Not the same singer except very close to Patsy "Women like you are a dime a dozen"" You can buy a dime😂a dozen!
I think this a whole lot with reaction videos but I listen to everything from blues from the 1920's to 30's all the way to alternative heavy metal of the Ministry and art of noise. I like most stuff but doo wop, beach songs, most rap(sorry dude!)
I have been a big Patsy Cline fan for the last 30 years and it was very touching to see your reaction to her voice. Almost brought tears to my eyes. It reminds me of when I first discovered her in the early '90s. This summer I went on a road trip and visited the Patsy Cline Museum in Nashville, and the her girlhood home in Winchester, Virginia. Very humble beginnings. She shared a bedroom with her mother, her brother, and her sister. Her mom was her manager, and there is a framed studio portrait of her in the living room, on which she wrote, "Mom, we finally made it!" Regarding the genre of this song, she actually aimed to be a big band singer, but then did country, but I don't think she ever considered her songs and voice to be strictly country, which may be why you had that reaction. It is such a tragedy that she died at age 30. She'd be 93 today. Think of her singing throughout the 1960s, '70s, '80s and '90s. All the beautiful songs we missed out on.
I agree with you about genre.🙂My parents were into big band back then, not country, but they adored Patsy Cline. Maybe she was what they'd call a "crossover artist" today: someone who can sing or perform music well in many genres.
She died on March 5th, 1963. Eight months before I was born. But luckily I have fond memories of my aunt who used to play Patsy Clines records all the time when I was a child and I remember even as a child, I loved her voice. Anytime my aunt had a big family get together, she had Patsy Cline playing on her big heavy stereo, she always had a few albums of country music playing. But I’ll never forget always hearing my aunt play Patsy Cline music, I thank her for that. 😊
I'm 68. My parents were big fans of Patsy Cline so I grew up listening to her. I still have Patsy Cline's Greatest Hits on my phone. Always brings me to tears. Never heard anyone who can compare. It's nice to see a new generation appreciating her.
Patsy was a country star and best friends with Loretta Lynn. She was in a terrible car crash, and in this video, her scars are healing from plastic surgery. Patsy died as a young woman when her plane crashed into a mountain. Someone in the business told her slow ballads were her best thing. You would have liked her dude. The lady was a force, and way ahead of her time. ❤
@margaretswearingen2371 You didn't read my entire post. I said the scars on the video were from her brothers terrible car crash, but she died when her plane hit a mountain.
Just for historical accuracy, her plane didn't go into a mountain as portrayed in the movie Sweet Dreams. That was for dramatic affect. Actually, it went down in a forest. In the unlikely event that you find yourself in the area, the address of the site is 2904 Mt Carmel Rd, Camden, TN
I heard this song when I was only three years old, I tried to sing her song, I was mesmerized by her voice. She is truly one of a kind. See you in paradise Patsy Cline.
She did straight country for a couple of years and it was mostly unremarkable. Her last two albums someone figured out her voice was magic and put the jazz vibe behind it. That has kept her alive for the last 70 tears. No exaggeration her voice is top 5 female.
Patsy is the QUEEN of Country,..even though she's been gone for so long. RIP Patsy. I've never met anyone who doesnt love this song and the lady who sings it.
I'm 70 years old and have loved Patsy since the first time I heard her sing! Truly one of the greatest voices of all time. Please check out; "I fall to pieces", "He called me Baby all night long", "He's got you', "Sweet Dreams". You can't go wrong . . .
The world said, 'no. It can't be over' when she passed so you're not alone BP. Loretta Lynn couldn't believe it because they had plans for the day she found out the plane went down. She was only 30, had a husband and 2 small babies. So sad.
Didn't Loretta name one of her daughters Patsy? I'm thinking she was pregnant with twins when Patty died? I could be totally wrong because its been awhile since I've seen the movie.
Great restraint. She was the queen that led the most heartbreaking life. Battered and abused, then died in a fiery plane crash. I do miss her, but thank goodness she left a larger than life legacy.
Always a kick to watch people hear Patsy Cline for the first time. Usually 5 to 10 seconds in they know they are listening to perfection. For those of us old enough to remember and to have heard the great natural voices of the 40's and 50's and 60's she was a star among them. Tragic to lose her at 30.
Patsy Cline is an icon!!! Her music 🎶 is off the charts!! But passed away way too soon.. that clip is over 60 years or more.. And she still graces us with her singing because of you young people for keeping it alive today.. thank you!! Every song is heaven❤❤
The one and only Patsy Cline ! She could belt yodel cry in a single line . She was still recovering from a car accident ( that’s what the band is , the tv people didn’t want to show her scar. Like we would have cared about that . Her music is on every decent jukebox everywhere. WALKING AFTER MIDNIGHT-SWEET DREAMS- I FALL TO PIECES are among her hits
Grew up with this music. My Mom's cafe, 45's on the juke box, five plays for a quarter, washing dishes in the back, watching the truck driver's out front waiting for their burger's, what a time to be growing up. Today's talent can't compare.
This is one of those songs that cannot be done again. Patsy Cline singing "Crazy" ranks up with Judy Garland singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." Both are perfect and cannot be improved upon.
@@HeyItsCasser I'm with you on Eva Cassidy's singing Over the Rainbow, not to downplay Judy Garland's version but Eva Cassidy is absolutely better, IMO.
"What IS this?" ---- It's the torchiest of torch songs. And you're right, knowing that she is restraining the power in her voice makes the performance even more powerful.
Patsy was one of a kind. She also crossed over stations that were not country. She was gone way too soon. And yes, she was definitely a country artist.
The day Patsy died in that plane crash we all knew we had lost a wonderful singer, but I don't think it really set in until now. When we hear her fabulous voice after all those years, it blows you away just to realize what great talent she had.
The look on BP’s face says it all. Patsy Cline never fails to put goosebumps on my arms every time I hear her sing. Legend. Icon. A rabbit hole worth exploring.
I lived in Winchester, Va until I retired in 2022. Patsy was our hometown hero. They made her home into a museum and she is buried there. She’s a legend.
My family and I live just 25 miles from her birthplace in Gore. Our daughter was born in Winchester, and I work in Winchester. She was a long-distance cousin of my mother's stepfather who was a Hensley.
Patsy Cline (born Virginia Patterson Hensley; September 8, 1932 - March 5, 1963) was an American singer. She is considered one of the most influential vocalists of the 20th century and was one of the first country music artists to cross over into pop music.[8][9] Cline had several major hits during her eight-year recording career, including two number-one hits on the Billboard Hot Country and Western Sides chart.
Oh darl! Patsy Cline is an ICON! Sooooo well- known....and appreciated...all over the world ❤ Thank you, though, for "finding" her and exposing her beautiful voice for new fans ❤ (I tend to forget how OLD I am! 😂)
She is/was one of the greatest female country vocalists of all time, and could bring the men to tears with her music. But, with songs like this (written by Willie Nelson), but with her arrangement, Patsy was also considered one of the first 'Crossover' artists. We all know she would have had SO MANY more hits in her career if she had not passed away tragically at such a young age. She had a car accident just before this taping and thus you see the bandage on her forehead. Now, listen to Patsy's 'SWEET DREAMS" recording! Talk about Angelic!
DEFINITELY Classic Country! Patsy was one of the OG Country Queens! Timeless!!! One of the reasons I LOVE watching your reactions, being completely new to rock and country) is that it refreshes my appreciation. I grew up with this music in my house from day ONE...lol! So, I think I get complacent to how pure Patsy's voice actually was. Watching your reaction and seeing your expressions and hearing your analysis reminds me!
There can’t Be enough said about Patsy Cline. Taken from us All way too soon. She is a True Legend and she sang effortlessly. True Classic Yesteryear Country Music. Thank You For Sharing!!
This song takes me back to my Grandmas kitchen. There's a pot roast in the oven,the house smells amazing and she's cutting the tomatoes she picked out the garden. I can still hear her singing along beautifully. Thanks for the memory. ❤
@69Tks 5 days ago YOUR COMMENT: 60's 70's an the 80's Are true, raw talent. Today's music holds no candle! YES AND NO AS ALWAYS !!! TODAY, CHECK OUT "PENTATONIX" 5 PERSON GROUP AND #1 ACAPPELLA GROUP IN THE WORLD WITH OVER 200 AWESOME SONGS !!! HARMONIZING TO HEAVEN !!! CHRISTMAS SONGS WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. STILL LOVE THE OLD ONES BUT ARE NOW "UPGRADED AND AWESOME !!! TYPE IN THE YT SEARCH BAR ABOVE "PENTATONIX !!!" YOU WILL LOVE THEM !!!
What you are hearing is the pain she’s carrying within her. Willie wrote the song but Patsy was living it. You should watch the movie Sweet Dreams. It will all make more sense then.
Yes, this was what country used to be. Patsy is a legend and was (and still is to many) the all-time queen of country music. Her voice is as haunting as it is captivating - and she knew it and knew how to use it.
And please note: she's just standing there singing. No gyrations, no vocal affectations, just straight up talent. She doesn't need to "go insane." Beautiful voice. Can't believe you've never heard her before. Check out "Sweet Dreams." Her soaring vocal is outstanding.
I just love this man’s reactions and appreciation for this lovely amazing songbird. Ms. Patsy was taken away WAY TOO SOON.🥲I totally miss her kind of music.
You personally got me a list of names to things I would never listen to and I love your reactions and I give you credit bro open it up and try new things because I gotta tell you it’s something I’ve never done until I started listening to your reactions and it has me thinking on a whole Nother level now WOW !’n
American music is the greatest art form. Its eternal!

MUSIC...is...international language. Personally I love SOME music from every genre of music ever made.
Patsy is considered to be the most influential female singer of the 20th century. She was the first female cross over artist to hit both country and pop charts. She only had an 8 year career as she died in a plane crash at the ago of 30.
I seen the movie at a theater. Dead silence on that scene.
Um, Jo Stafford would like to have a word here... :-)
Gone way too soon. RIP Patsy ❤❤❤
They didn't know who patsy Cline is?? For real?? If so I don't know why not. If in music you should know about music! There is movies and biographies made about her. Loretta Lynn. Etc.
Thank you for playing this Patsy Kline was my dad's favorie. He passed in 2009. I miss him so much! Love you, daddy!
R.I.P, I'm sorry for your loss.
Same. Just lost my pop in April 😢
No gimmicks, no stagecraft, no costumes, no autotune, just pure talent.
Correct! She had a voice.
I was going to say something similar
You've said a mouthful!
To me, that's when you heard an artist and said "WOW!" because you had never heard of autotune and knew that what you heard was extreme vocal control.
She had such a bright future. Shame she died young.
I am a hospice nurse. One of my first patients just died at 91 years old. Her life was unfairly difficult and painful. I care about all my patients but my connection with her was so special. The hospice I work with doesn't have a music therapist. My parents are 84 and 88 and I grew up listening to Patsy Cline.

You're a good Nurse.God bless you
That is so sweet of you. Music brings back memories for them. But the fact that you could sing this songs is remarkable.
Retired hospice nurse here, the most fulfilling job I ever had.
@@AjAli842 Hospice care does so much for families too, when that times comes.
God bless you ❤
Written by none other than Willie Nelson❤❤
Was going to post this and you beat me to it! While he also recorded it, she took it as her own! Like Johnny Cash taking Hurt from Trent Reznor.
The story I heard was that he sold it to her for $50.00.
Written by Willie Nelson with some modifications by Patsy Cline.
Willie was originally going to name it "Stupid", for some reason I don't think it would have had the same impact.
Dang! You beat me to it
Patsy Cline had one of the richest voices in history.
She was one of a kind.
Etta James had the same tone
there were many of these back then. MISS THOSE DAYS!!!!
LOVED her voice, but I also loved the Linda Ronstadt remake of it. patsy was first though.
Isn't that the truth✨Patsy 💞Cline💫
I agree best of the best.
You’ll like “I fall to pieces” & “Walking after Midnight” by her too 😎
seconded. . .More Patsy and those are great choices!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yep, we caught you thinking ?
Don't forget "she's got you"
Walking after midnight was a great one
Patsy died in a plane crash coming home from a charity concert in 1963 at the ripe old age of 30. She had the purest voice country music has ever known, but, as they say, only the good die young. Amazingly, she survived an automobile accident in 1961 that almost killed her and kept her hospitalized for over a month. Her career was short but her legacy is forever.
She knew hard times, her angst and blues were real! You could really hear the pain in her voice .
The auto accident was why she was wearing that headband. She had bad scars on her forehead.
@@sierraseven3680 Exactly. Thank God it didn’t affect her beautiful voice!
It's a short song but she sings with all of the pain that her short life contained.
Who says??
Too many singers today think that just belting, being loud, doing runs the whole song is selling the song. No, the quietness, the strength, the storytelling, the drawing you in to listen to every word. That is the power.
No one could have said that better. Maybe it should be required for aspiring singers to listen to some of the legends who could stop people in their tracks, hanging on every word, every breath. It doesn't get any better. The power in stillness.
Another great song from Patsy is Faded Love. It haunted Patsy's husband after the plane crash that killed her. He played it over and over, telling friends "I can hear her take a breath at the end. How can she be dead?"
That's why I prefer Dolly Parton's original version of *"I Will Always Love You"* over Whitney's version and why I prefer Carol Kings jazzy version of *"Natural Woman"* over Aretha's version, now I love all 4 versions, and Aretha was the original version that was released, even though Carol and her husband wrote the song.
I hate all of the runs for no reason . I don’t like Mariah Carey , her voice hurts my head because of those runs .
And possible worse. They think hitting perfectly square on the note is correct and desirable, which is why music sounds so drained of all feeling.

Loretta Lynn was her best friend. The song was written by Willie Nelson. She had been hospitalized right before see the band on her head hiding stitches. She died in plane crash soon after.
After alll....she was THE coal miners daughter
I love both of them and Loretta Lynn's movie is my favorite movie
She had been in a car accident. From what I remember it was a bad accident.
@@debradillard315 She was partially scalped when she went through the windshield in the days before mandatory safety glass and seatbelts.
Holy hell I have seen this one hundred times and I never knew that was a bandage on her head. Singers were no joke back then.

I'm learning so many interesting things, just scrolling through the comments.
Thank You for sharing.
❤❤❤
Thanks. I was close. I know she couldn’t get his take on it out of her head. But she eventually did.
I didn't even know that Willie Nelson wrote it. Thanks for sharing this with us :)
She wore the headband to hide an injury from that accident.
Never knew that. Love the song though.
I’m a 50 year old punk and metal fan and I’ve been listening to her since I was a baby, this woman can make the hardest man cry. Love her ❤
She was Loretta Lynns best friend. She died in a plane crash and Loretta was crushed! Watch Coal Miners Daughter. Its a awesome story!
One of Loretta's twins was named after Patsy!
Home Free sings this in the same key! Patsy left us way too soon but not before she left us a number of hits!
Love that movie
I actually live near Camden, TN where the plane went down. They have a Memorial Rock at the location.
Coal miners daughter is a great film Sing to the babies Loretta
Crazy, Sweet Dreams, I Go out Walking (after Midnight), I Fall to Pieces, etc were all absolute jewels from the wonderful, legendary Country singer Patsy Cline.
I concur! Peace, Love!!
Yes ma'am they are beautiful songs!!!
Full Yes to all of that!
Goosebumps every single time!
Kd lang eas influenced by patsy both awesome 👌
At 13, Patsy was hospitalized with a throat infection and rheumatic fever. She said after she recovered she had this booming voice.

Some grandma knew how to pray for her granddaughter in the hospital all right! I'd bet it's true!
She brought the house down always. Till a plane brought her down.
Re: rheumatic fever - it was just after her step father assaulted her
Patsy Cline is the hallmark of vocal perfection. The urgency and inflection of her delivery is impeccable. She is the Queen of ALL music. No one ever delivered like Patsy Cline.

@itzel1735 No, not a singer I know. Just googled her and she's definitely got a good voice.
I don't know about that. Dolly Parton has always said it takes a lot of money to look that cheap... :)

Patsy Cline broke everyone’s heart when she died in a plane crash in her early 30s. She was a mentor and best friend to a very young Loretta Lynn.
Exactly.
My interpretation of her sad passing is the country version of "The Day the Music Died". The plane crash not only killed Patsy but also two other country music legends...Cowboy Copas & Hawkshaw Hawkins.
Patsy and Buddy…….such tragedies should never have happened. Small planes are too dangerous for awesome talent. Heartbreaking.
She was exactly 30.
The background singers were the Jordanaires, who also backed Elvis.
No beats, no auto tune, no computer boards. Just excellent songwriting, musicians and vocal excellence. REAL MUSIC. Hits everyone deep.
The simple music so beautifully played, and the simple background vocals are done so as NOT to over shadow or compete with the strong voice of Patsy Cline.
There's a good reason this song's survived so long - it's a genuine classic. Her voice is beautiful.
Patsy Cline is a LEGEND who's life was cut short. Patsy & Lorettta Lynn were best friends. RIP Patsy Cline!
She was Queen before Loretta Lynn. She was country. You should hear sweet dreams. ❤
I fall to pieces, walking after midnight, many many more! My mom loved Patsy and her music was in the house!
She is 1 in a million! Died on a plane crash.
Not the same singer except very close to Patsy
"Women like you are a dime a dozen""
You can buy a dime😂a dozen!
Loretta talked about how kind she was to her.
"Sweet Dreams" was written and first recorded by Don Gibson. It was a good record for both, and her record made Gibson a lot of money.
Floyd Cramer is the piano player. Yes, this is the old school country. When people say they miss the true country, this is what we mean
one of my piano idols
Thank you! I feel like none of the classic country singers would respect someone like Jason Aldean.
That upright bass is killing it! Perfect accompaniment
Amen!!!!
Floyd Cramer’s Last Date is my favorite song to play on piano. Love him and did not know he was her pianist.
Quite simply, the greatest country song ever written as performed by the greatest female country singer who ever lived.
So weird for anyone not to know who Patsy Cline is. Probably the greatest most influential female artist of all time. Loved watching you discover her.
I feel the same! She was a legend!
I think this a whole lot with reaction videos but I listen to everything from blues from the 1920's to 30's all the way to alternative heavy metal of the Ministry and art of noise. I like most stuff but doo wop, beach songs, most rap(sorry dude!)
He grew up in Germany so he didn’t listen to much American music.
I am so glad to see he is open to learning!!
@@nethlegolasSorry, I live in Germany, and of course I know Patsy Cline and I do not work in the music business!
One of the greatest female voices of all time, regardless of genre.
Hi honey ,, it’s definitely Country, written by Willie Nelson. Jessica Lang starred in a movie about Patsy’s life called Sweet Dreams.
I have been a big Patsy Cline fan for the last 30 years and it was very touching to see your reaction to her voice. Almost brought tears to my eyes.

Patsy died more than 60 years ago when yet her music lives on and is just as popular today. It just goes to show you that real music Never Dies
She died on March 5th, 1963. Eight months before I was born. But luckily I have fond memories of my aunt who used to play Patsy Clines records all the time when I was a child and I remember even as a child, I loved her voice. Anytime my aunt had a big family get together, she had Patsy Cline playing on her big heavy stereo, she always had a few albums of country music playing. But I’ll never forget always hearing my aunt play Patsy Cline music, I thank her for that. 😊
She grew up about an hour from where I live. Down the street from my mother's first husband. She's still a treasure in that town.
Just like Elvis
Legends Never Die. Hail from Oz
My grandmother introduced me to Patsy Cline as a kid and I stilI ADORE her! Do "I Fall To Pieces" for another masterpiece!
Before making it big as an artist Willie Nelson was a much respected songwriter. This was one of his best efforts.
Mr. Willy Nelson wrote this in 15 minutes on a bar napkin…
Patsy Cline is one of the greatest singers of all time. Her voice is so pure.
She was the Queen of Country!,
Kitty Wells might dispute that, if she were still around.
And Loretta Lynn!
I'm 68. My parents were big fans of Patsy Cline so I grew up listening to her. I still have Patsy Cline's Greatest Hits on my phone. Always brings me to tears. Never heard anyone who can compare. It's nice to see a new generation appreciating her.
Patsy was a country star and best friends with Loretta Lynn. She was in a terrible car crash, and in this video, her scars are healing from plastic surgery. Patsy died as a young woman when her plane crashed into a mountain. Someone in the business told her slow ballads were her best thing. You would have liked her dude. The lady was a force, and way ahead of her time.
❤
She actually died in a plane crash
@margaretswearingen2371
You didn't read my entire post. I said the scars on the video were from her brothers terrible car crash, but she died when her plane hit a mountain.
She did die in a plane crash, so sad
Just for historical accuracy, her plane didn't go into a mountain as portrayed in the movie Sweet Dreams. That was for dramatic affect. Actually, it went down in a forest. In the unlikely event that you find yourself in the area, the address of the site is 2904 Mt Carmel Rd, Camden, TN
You need to check out her song Walking After Midnight.
Patsy had a hell of a voice. She was an icon in the 50s and 60s.
Only one was able to cover her linda r
I heard this song when I was only three years old, I tried to sing her song, I was mesmerized by her voice. She is truly one of a kind. See you in paradise Patsy Cline.
My mom loved her and Loretta ❤❤❤
She did straight country for a couple of years and it was mostly unremarkable. Her last two albums someone figured out her voice was magic and put the jazz vibe behind it. That has kept her alive for the last 70 tears. No exaggeration her voice is top 5 female.
spot on
Patsy is the QUEEN of Country,..even though she's been gone for so long. RIP Patsy.
I've never met anyone who doesnt love this song and the lady who sings it.
I'm 70 years old and have loved Patsy since the first time I heard her sing! Truly one of the greatest voices of all time. Please check out; "I fall to pieces", "He called me Baby all night long", "He's got you', "Sweet Dreams". You can't go wrong . . .
Me too!!!!
She is pure country music and this was written by Willie Nelson. Some consider her the queen of country
The world said, 'no. It can't be over' when she passed so you're not alone BP. Loretta Lynn couldn't believe it because they had plans for the day she found out the plane went down. She was only 30, had a husband and 2 small babies. So sad.
Didn't Loretta name one of her daughters Patsy? I'm thinking she was pregnant with twins when Patty died? I could be totally wrong because its been awhile since I've seen the movie.
Great restraint. She was the queen that led the most heartbreaking life. Battered and abused, then died in a fiery plane crash. I do miss her, but thank goodness she left a larger than life legacy.
Yes. Especially when she was only singing for 3 years.
Beautiful that you are giving newer generations a chance to hear this magic. Some voices should never be forgotten. Thank you.
Oh! my gosh she could sing, you could understand every word she sung!
She’s one of the best vocalist ever imo! She has amazing control and highly recommend more of her easily.
Always a kick to watch people hear Patsy Cline for the first time. Usually 5 to 10 seconds in they know they are listening to perfection. For those of us old enough to remember and to have heard the great natural voices of the 40's and 50's and 60's she was a star among them. Tragic to lose her at 30.
That piano is none other than the great Floyd Cramer. He played for Elvis and had a great hit with LAST DATE. He was a legend.
this is Elvis recording band..the Nashville A team
I wore my 45 of Last Date down to where it was slick.
I love, love, love Patsy Cline.
a voice so beautiful it hurts.
her song 'i fall to pieces' goes right to the heart as well.
Willie Nelson says this is still the song most often played on the jukebox.
And he makes royalties every time it plays as the writer!!
I'm glad for him💕
Listen to her sing "I Fall to Pieces". You'll fall even more in love...seriously
Patsy Cline is an icon!!! Her music 🎶 is off the charts!! But passed away way too soon.. that clip is over 60 years or more.. And she still graces us with her singing because of you young people for keeping it alive today.. thank you!! Every song is heaven❤❤
The one and only Patsy Cline ! She could belt yodel cry in a single line . She was still recovering from a car accident ( that’s what the band is , the tv people didn’t want to show her scar. Like we would have cared about that . Her music is on every decent jukebox everywhere. WALKING AFTER MIDNIGHT-SWEET DREAMS- I FALL TO PIECES are among her hits
It's called Talent! It's a voice that has lasted decades.
I listen to lots of genres. But Patsy, George Jones, Willie... always have my heart.
Grew up with this music. My Mom's cafe, 45's on the juke box, five plays for a quarter, washing dishes in the back, watching the truck driver's out front waiting for their burger's, what a time to be growing up. Today's talent can't compare.
I am 62 years young and i can still remember my parents playing Patsy Cline love it...........
I'm 58 and this was the music in my Grandparents house where I grew up!
I'm 55 and I still listen the oldies 😂
I'm 48 and this is the one voice that can instantly melt my 81 year old father. ❤
Here 28yo dude from Poland, I've been always in love with retro music
I'm 75 and remember being a little one watching her on TV.
"Bro, this can't be over.." This is exactly what I feel every time this song ends after 1000s of listens over decades.
This is one of those songs that cannot be done again. Patsy Cline singing "Crazy" ranks up with Judy Garland singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." Both are perfect and cannot be improved upon.
You need to Listen to Eva Cassidy’s version of Over The Rainbow. Totally different but better imo and I do not say that lightly
@@HeyItsCasser I'm with you on Eva Cassidy's singing Over the Rainbow, not to downplay Judy Garland's version but Eva Cassidy is absolutely better, IMO.
kd Lang does a perfect Patsy Cline.
@@HeyItsCasser Miss, agree: Eva Cassidy's version of 'Over the Rainbow' is fantastic, no doubt! Lucy Thomas takes it one step further.......
Please look up Over the Rainbow by Eva Cassidy. So incredibly beautiful. The voice of an angel. Just her and her guitar recorded in black and white.
She is beautiful and sings perfect
"What IS this?" ---- It's the torchiest of torch songs. And you're right, knowing that she is restraining the power in her voice makes the performance even more powerful.
Patsy was one of a kind. She also crossed over stations that were not country. She was gone way too soon. And yes, she was definitely a country artist.
The day Patsy died in that plane crash we all knew we had lost a wonderful singer, but I don't think it really set in until now. When we hear her fabulous voice after all those years, it blows you away just to realize what great talent she had.
You chose a winner performance. There will never be another voice or talent like Patsy Cline. 💖
The look on BP’s face says it all. Patsy Cline never fails to put goosebumps on my arms every time I hear her sing. Legend. Icon. A rabbit hole worth exploring.
I lived in Winchester, Va until I retired in 2022. Patsy was our hometown hero. They made her home into a museum and she is buried there. She’s a legend.
My family and I live just 25 miles from her birthplace in Gore. Our daughter was born in Winchester, and I work in Winchester. She was a long-distance cousin of my mother's stepfather who was a Hensley.
@@MAMsMom97 we retired from the jail in Winchester and moved to Tennessee. I miss Winchester so much. Beautiful place . It’s still home to me
One of the great classics written by Willie Nelson.
I said the same thing.
I get your reaction, chills up, and my body . Always love her. I am old now, and I dont get the oldies in norfolk
I've been listening to music for over 70 years, and Patsy Cline is in the top 5 of my all time favorite singers.
Same here!
This is patient artistry as opposed to "entertainment," which is what too much of today's music is. Pure art hits you in the heart. It's eternal.
Patsy Cline (born Virginia Patterson Hensley; September 8, 1932 - March 5, 1963) was an American singer. She is considered one of the most influential vocalists of the 20th century and was one of the first country music artists to cross over into pop music.[8][9] Cline had several major hits during her eight-year recording career, including two number-one hits on the Billboard Hot Country and Western Sides chart.
Oh darl! Patsy Cline is an ICON! Sooooo well- known....and appreciated...all over the world ❤ Thank you, though, for "finding"
her and exposing her beautiful voice for new fans ❤ (I tend to forget how OLD I am! 😂)
I think this is called perfection. It can’t get any better.
All female singers want to sing like Patsy Cline!!! She could do ANYTHING with her voice!!!
"Crazy" written by the great Willie Nelson 💖💖💖
She is/was one of the greatest female country vocalists of all time, and could bring the men to tears with her music. But, with songs like this (written by Willie Nelson), but with her arrangement, Patsy was also considered one of the first 'Crossover' artists. We all know she would have had SO MANY more hits in her career if she had not passed away tragically at such a young age. She had a car accident just before this taping and thus you see the bandage on her forehead. Now, listen to Patsy's 'SWEET DREAMS" recording! Talk about Angelic!
BP asks "What is this??" This my friend is pure, classic country gold.
This is a great example of the fact that rock, R&B, and country have similar blues roots.
Even we metalheads appreciate Patsy Cline. Such a powerful voice and so much feeling in her music (Country)
I loved her when I first heard her when I was a kid and I’m 61 now and I still love her, and all you said I said back then ♥️
YES it is COUNTRY!!!! The is REAL!!! What till you hear the rest of her songs.
Walking after Midnight is another great Patsy Cline song.
That one is even better!
DEFINITELY Classic Country! Patsy was one of the OG Country Queens! Timeless!!! One of the reasons I LOVE watching your reactions, being completely new to rock and country) is that it refreshes my appreciation. I grew up with this music in my house from day ONE...lol! So, I think I get complacent to how pure Patsy's voice actually was. Watching your reaction and seeing your expressions and hearing your analysis reminds me!
I love love love this Patsy Cline song. She's fabulous!!!!!
She perfected that soulful little "cry" in her vocals.
Patsy has lots of beautiful songs. My favourite is "I Fall To Pieces".
Its so great to see a young man like yourself, branching out and listening to different kinds of music.
Lord, she’s one of the best singers of all time. Yes country singer
There can’t Be enough said about Patsy Cline. Taken from us All way too soon. She is a True Legend and she sang effortlessly. True Classic Yesteryear Country Music.
Thank You For Sharing!!
This song takes me back to my Grandmas kitchen. There's a pot roast in the oven,the house smells amazing and she's cutting the tomatoes she picked out the garden. I can still hear her singing along beautifully. Thanks for the memory. ❤
All of Patsy's songs were great hits! Everything she sang was pure gold. More Patsy please.
her voice with that rich deeper sound has this way of hypnotizing you. she was amazing
I grew up listening to her. I love this song, walking after midnight and I fall to pieces. ❤

Patsy was 1950-1960.
What you are hearing is the pain she’s carrying within her. Willie wrote the song but Patsy was living it. You should watch the movie Sweet Dreams. It will all make more sense then.
Yes, this was what country used to be. Patsy is a legend and was (and still is to many) the all-time queen of country music. Her voice is as haunting as it is captivating - and she knew it and knew how to use it.
And please note: she's just standing there singing. No gyrations, no vocal affectations, just straight up talent. She doesn't need to "go insane." Beautiful voice. Can't believe you've never heard her before. Check out "Sweet Dreams." Her soaring vocal is outstanding.
I absolutely love Patsy Cline! Her voice is so beautiful, I love to sing along with her.
Patsy Kline..best pipes in country music history
Dolly Pardon is a close second but I agree.
And Jim Reeves
"Sweet Dreams" chokes me up EVERYTIME. Wish you would cover that one. Great reaction as always.
I just love this man’s reactions and appreciation for this lovely amazing songbird. Ms. Patsy was taken away WAY TOO SOON.🥲I totally miss her kind of music.
