Her voice is ridiculous! PATSY CLINE CRAZY REACTION

[@PickleBoot_Arts]

Written by Willie Nelson. He was a struggling songwriter and was about to give up, but he sent this song out as a last gasp and the biggest female star in country music liked it.

[@sylviafarese8837]

Not only that. Patsy tried singing it like Willie and it got frustrating. When she expressed ‘I can’t sing it like him’, she was told to do it her way and she did indeed! Slowed the song down and did her magic with her voice. Gone but not forgotten.

[@johnandrews3151]

Actually, Patsy hated the song but her manager saw it as a #1 hit and he was right!

[@sammyp4216]

YEah most people don't know two legends are connected to this song because Willie wrote it when he was just trying to make a buck writing songs before they talked him into performing himself!

[@vickit.1797]

well I tell you right now it wouldn't have went as far had willie recorded it​@@sammyp4216.

[@barbarastewart603]

And she does it without screaming or trying to display vocal gymnastics. Her voice is "pure"!

[@garyjohnson801]

She's the best there was the best there is and the best there ever will be.

[@dsusan17]

In my opinion Patsy Cline had one of the finest voices to ever grace God's green earth. Taken away too soon. She was one of the first Country Artist to preform at Carnegie Hall. Willie Nelson wrote this song. She does not have a bad song. Wonderful reaction Harri

[@CarolynAllen-fc2vs]

simply the best female singer ever!!

[@davidhubbert9445]

She sure is .

[@joeyrobison6629]

In June, 1961, Patsy was involved in a head-on car crash that sent her through the windshield, resulting in facial injuries, broken ribs and a dislocated hip. She was wearing the head band in one of the clips of this video to ease scarring to her face as well as soothe constant headaches she was experiencing. She recorded "Crazy" in August of that year, still on crutches and in pain from the broken ribs. In those days the artist and the musicians on the session recorded at the same time. On the first day of the session, she could not reach the notes to her liking due to the pain. She left for the day, and the producer, Owen Bradley, recorded the musicians session and Patsy came back a few days later and recorded her vocals in one take! The piano player on this session was the late, great Floyd Cramer, with his signature "slip note" style of playing, who had an instrumental country hit with "Last Date". He was part of what they called in Nashville the "A Team" of session musicians that created that "Nashville Sound" of the late 50s and early 60s, which showcased Patsy's voice (and background vocals provided by The Jordanaires, also heard on the early Elvis records) with the mix of country and pop.

[@skyepuppy7763]

Thanks for the info about Floyd Cramer! My parents had his album, called, "Floyd Cramer Gets Organ-ized." Lots of wonderful organ music.

[@cindydlittle]

I heard she died in a plane crash. I'll have to research that. Okay, I looked up her death & it was in 1963 & it was a plane crash.

[@abbynormal4740]

I thought the piano part sounded a lot like Floyd Cramer 😄 Last Date was one of Dad's favorite tunes and he always hummed along when I'd plink out the sheet music on our piano - miss you Dad ♥️

[@iTsEfFiNsTePhh]

@@cindydlittle She did die in a plane crash but before that she got in the car accident 😕

[@StudMacher78]

That’s an incredible story

[@c.michellebraddock960]

60 years later & this lady is no less a star than day one!! Patsy makes my heart beat faster every time I hear her!!! 💐❤️

[@jamesworthington3346]

The best female singer I've ever heard period

[@susieq9801]

I was never a big country fan but this lady could sing! "She's got you" and "Walkin' after midnight" were my favorites.

[@zimjun7]

Agree!!! She is anything but cringe worthy, like some country sounds.... Gave me good chills!

[@susantang287]

Also add 'Strange' to that list.

[@personalcheeses8073]

You say country but it’s more bluesy to me

[@suecook1326]

Sweet Dreams is great too!

[@tiacalhoun3841]

Sweet Dreams is in my opinion her best song, the control she has in that one is epic

[@greybeard2280]

Patsy Cline, the life she lived, things she endured. When she recorded this song she had just survived an automobile accident. Another 30 year old shining star, gone too soon. This song really shows Willie Nelson's ability to write beautiful lyrics. He later recorded it as a single. RIP beautiful soul.

[@vickit.1797]

this woman's voice is what did it

[@karenpowell6063]

Hey Harri, thank you for reacting to Patsy Cline , maybe you could check out another one of her best songs Sweet Dreams . Her vocals were so unique

[@annadelgails1876]

❤

[@marilynbrockington8213]

My favourite Patsy Cline song. I've lived it.

[@mamb70]

One of the greatest singers ever and one of the greatest songs. I Fall to Pieces and Sweet Dreams are equally as good!

[@aberration3869]

Dynamic is one word that sums up Patsy’s voice. Pitch perfect perfection.

[@Mark-iv7np]

Her and Karen Carpenter had the most beautiful voices ever!! Sweet Dreams and I Fall to Pieces are incredibly as good.

[@sallysharp3845]

"WALKING AFTER MIDNIGHT" and "I FALL TO PIECES" are must listen songs by Patsy.

[@beeseewill2407]

Patsy's voices pierces the heart.R.I.P Patsy.

[@jaketarry3534]

The Number One song played in Jukeboxes every year.

[@shirleybuffington6420]

This song was written by the frat Willie Nelson

[@kylesummers1565]

One of THE GOATS. Thanks Patsy and Willie! Peace, Love!

[@bengone3349]

Your descriptions of her voice are spot on. Every word is wrapped in emotion and is passed to the listener. I FEEL music!

[@craigmccausland1183]

I adore her! My parents were huge fans, and she and Hank Williams Sr were the only two of their favs that stayed with me. That voice and that song are perfect together. Thx, great request.

[@dougoverhoff7568]

The queen of Country, Patty's voice is simply unmatched!

[@SPANKY221]

She was so very good. Had a hard personal life, and a tragic death. Love her voice, and this song. Thank you 🙏

[@karenj3611]

The greatest female voice ever

[@georgeralph8031]

Never been anyone who sounded like this before, or since. To this very day.

[@dbrinkm1]

I am 76 and grew up through the Patsy Cline years...she was supurb,. absolute perfect voice ! Harry, listen to and do a reaction to patsy's song.." She's got you"...you will love it ! it will make you cry.

[@Kat-gx3se]

I was very young when this was being played. ......I have loved it my entire life. It speaks volumes that it still gives me chills and makes the hair raise up on the back of my neck. I was so lucky to have been exposed to music of all kinds from a very early age . I cannot imagine a life without it. Thanks for choosing this.

[@kathleenkarsten5739]

Loved your reaction today! Patsy was indeed special, and yes, that piano is heavenly. ❤️

[@scottski51]

Does anyone know who is playing the piano?? Rather sounds like Floyd Cramer, my favorite from back then.

[@lorithomas9221]

@scottski, it was Floyd Cramer playing the piano

[@dagmar.6954]

Patsy Cline has one of the best country voices around. Patsy had so many great hits such as "Crazy", "She's Got You", "When I Get Through With You", "Sweet Dreams", "So Wrong", "Leavin' on Your Mind", "Walkin' After Midnight", "I Fall To Pieces" "San Antonio Rose", "Blue Moon Of Kentucky", "Half As Much", "He Called Me Baby", "Faded Love", "Imagine That". She was only 31 when she died in a plane crash in 1963. In 1985 Jessica Lange starred in the movie about Patsy's life called "Sweet Dreams

[@jonjayryzner]

Year after year after year for decades, this song still remains one of the top songs played when offered on a jukebox… You can hear the tears in her voice as she’s singing…

[@lynnecurrie7561]

Fun fact....it is the #1 juke box song of all time! A true classic!

[@michelleortega1514]

Love Patsy! You need to listen to her other hits! I grew up listening to her music in the 60's. I am so glad I grew up listening to her beautiful music! ❤❤❤

[@suzanneh.3822]

Nobody like her. Her voice drips with heartache and longing. Perfection

[@scottski51]

The total, in this case, is definitely better than the sum of the different parts. Such a timeless classic of American music.

[@debbiechang5781]

Patsy Cline had an amazing voice and was taken from the world far too soon. So many female artists aspired to emulate her. She was a huge influence on KD Lang, who actually called her first band “The Reclines” in her honor. That’s a pretty impressive honor coming from another amazing artist with a gorgeous voice. Nice pick Harri. Your patrons have exquisite taste 😂. Love your reactions as always 🌺✌️

[@grahamboffey457]

Her voice is so full of emotion. I hear all of her heartaches. Wonderful!

[@jeanday9747]

She had a pure angelic voice and didn't use autotune. My fathers favorite singer. Thank you for bringing some of my dearest memories of my parents dancing.

[@barbarakitt5948]

One of my all time favorites. Her voice was incredible

[@davidnelson6874]

Patsy Cline has one of the I’m incomparable voices. The great Floyd Kramer played piano and organ on this masterpiece. Dad once told me we were somehow related to him.

[@danielvolk237]

Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson,and Floyd Cramer. That's 3 strikes and you're Out.........Out of This World!!! 🌏👍🔥

[@stephenqualtrough7322]

When i was little you used to hear people singing in the streets at closing time as they went down the narrow streets. And they nearly always sang "crazy " !

The song "Blue" sung by Leann Rimes was originally written for Patsy Cline. Unfortunately, she passed before she could record it. Years later....Leann Rimes made it a hit at age 14.

ICONIC! CORNERSTONE IN AMERICAN MUSIC

[@debrabeck9630]

I don’t even think of Patsy Cline as a country singer. She’s a singer, and one of the greats. If she had been discovered somewhere else, she might be put in a different genre. Patsy is one of a kind. Thanks for your delightful and spot on reaction to one of my favorites.

[@odiebryer2144]

This is one of the best voices in recorded history! ❤ I have a CD of Patsy's greatest hits and I have just about worn it out!!! 😊😅😂❤ Sadly, I slightly remember hearing on the radio when Patsy died. I was 12 years old. I know my Mom was sad about it, too! 😢

[@stevewixom9311]

Patsey Cline.. what a voice what a voice

[@joelmoreno4223]

Perfection: the 'tinkling' piano, the back-up singers, the bass, and .... Patsy Cline, her voice,...perfection.

[@LinnieCoffman]

LOVE PATSY!!!! This one has always been my favorite! No all of her songs are my favorites!!!!!!

[@vivianphillips8519]

My mom wasn't a big fan of country music but my grandma would always be tuned to the Grand Ole Opry or the Arthur Godfrey show on weekends. I can still remember seeing this performance sitting on the floor in front of my gramma's TV. Even at that young age I knew I was hearing something special.

[@Grummash]

Such a pure voice.. and the message can apply to everybody

[@hmm3484]

Harri, your reactions are so good - heartfelt, honest, sincere and I’m genuinely touched by how your love of great music shines through. I’m one of the (countless) people who wants everyone to experience the same euphoria I feel when listening to music. Anyway, it’s great to find people like yourself who can articulate those emotions so well. I’m very happy to have found your channel.🔷✔️

Great review Harry. As you say it's a diservice not to talk about her..... the VOICE ! Thanks much, continue onward. I like to say her unadulterated sigh's were SO genuine and not scripted like the modern sultry female singers that add that sigh deliberate.

another masterpiece written by Willie Nelson and sung by the master voice of Patsy Cline. She was one of a few country western singers that crossed over to the pop charts.' She's Got You' another favorite of mine. Left us way too soon.😔

There’s a singer who sounds so much like Patsy, her name is Leanne Rhimes and she does a tribute to Patsy , live on the CMA awards that will give you goosebumps and have you crying🥲❤️

@Kathy Embley, you should listen to Rhiannon Giddens sing Crazy. Beats the heck out of Rhimes' version. Ms. Giddens does fantastic covers of other Patsy Cline songs too.

Backing vocals on all of her records was provided by The Jordanaires. They were a gospel group that did backing vocals for many artists including Elvis Presley and Ricky Nelson.
