First Experience Hearing | Patsy Cline - Crazy | She's Amazing! |

[@philunderwood8553]

There are legends, and then there's Patsy Cline.

[@sonjarussell7332]

Despite her life and career being tragically cut so short, she left behind an amazing body of work for you and all future generations to discover and enjoy. *PLEASE* continue to react to more of her greatest hits! I promise you won’t regret any song you choose. Great reaction… more please!

[@miamidolphinsfan]

1000000% truth

[@nickforell1]

Thank you SO much!

[@sonjarussell7332]

One of the most recognizable, beautiful, powerful, pure, perfect in every way - voices to ever be recorded.

[@ntracefan]

Patsy passed so young in a plane crash. She did have a beautiful voice. She and Loretta Lynn were best friends

[@andrewmatthews1083]

Patsy had perfect pitch and perfect timing. This may be the most popular jukebox songs ever.

[@susanashworth2014]

It does this 79 year old heart to see this song truly appreication the qualitynof Patsy voice.

[@cheryljohnson1658]

My dad used to play her songs and would grab my mom and dance in the livingroom. She is iconic! Her tone is unsurpassed for the 60's .

[@momD612]

What an absolute beautiful legend. ❤ Home Free did an AMAZING cover of this, I'm sure you'd live it. 🥰

[@dagmar.6954]

This is one of the best country voices around. Patsy had so many great hits such as "She's Got You", "Walkin' After Midnight", "Sweet Dreams", "So Wrong", "Leavin' on Your Mind", "I Fall To Pieces" "San Antonio Rose", "Blue Moon Of Kentucky", "Half As Much", "He Called Me Baby", "Faded Love" etc. 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". "Home Free" does a great cover of "Crazy".

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Faded Love is my favorite....the emotions, and it was the last song she recorded before boarding that tragic Los Angeles to Kansas City flight.

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Nick, PLEASE go down the Patsy Cline rabbit hole....a voice from Heaven....my favorite song of hers, is Faded Love.

[@coldfire7141]

Love her so much. She can never be duplicated. She is my inspiration. Btw she just turned 30 on her birthday Sept 8 1962. Great reaction.

[@coldfire7141]

Actually she was flying from Kansas City to raise money for a disc jockey who was killed in a car accident and was good friends with her, because he went to see her in the hospital when she had her car accident that almost killed her. She was hit head on and she went head first into the front window. So ironic. So sad.@@miamidolphinsfan

[@alicestephens2233]

Her best song BY FAR was put out after her death in 1962...SWEET DREAMS was ICONIC....so powerful...she recorded it right before her death and performed it in NY and then had the plane crash which took her life before it was put out to the public. WONDERFUL...you should really hear it...Crazy is beautiful and haunting but Sweet Dreams will blow your mind with how powerful it is.

[@JoeTyria]

Patsy died in 1963.

[@alicestephens2233]

@@JoeTyria yes...sorry fat fingered :)

[@coldfire7141]

Also, she never got to sing the song. But, Ironically and Loretta Lynn mentions this in her book "kickin up dirt" that they were riding around when "Leavin on your mind" came on the radio and was climbing the charts. Loretta jokingly said to Patsy "well girl it looks like you got leavin on your mind, where you going"@@JoeTyria

[@MyLorissa]

Yes, please react to Home Free's version of Crazy! It's sung in the same key as Patsy sang it. It's great!

[@EileenMuza-h4s]

She had such a pure voice, she was the greatest.😊

[@robertrussell5948]

Patsy Cline is from my hometown of Winchester Virginia and my mom went to school with her and I remember exactly where I was the day she died in the plane crash 😢😢😢. My mom was heartbroken 😢😢😢. Our family burial plots are in the same cemetery as Patsy's. 😢😢😢

[@mamaseesa3122]

My mom grew up in Winchester and her first husband lived down the street from Patsy growing up. So I grew up listening to all of her songs!

[@nathancunningham9578]

Voice of an Angel!! I first heard this in 1986, and still her voice blows me away in 2024. RIP Patsy xx

[@beeg56]

...and it cannot be overstated: Her voice is 100% real. The development of autotune and other voice-enhancement electronics was still several decades away.

[@angelamason9840]

Thank you for your reaction. Written by Willie Nelson, my personal favorite version of this song is by Home Free.

[@jamietfranklin]

This is the studio recording with a television appearance video. The headband was covering a scar. She had just survived a car accident. The feeling her voice gives is almost overwhelming. What a queen. And with Willie's song! All the art in a song.

[@catmanpc9166]

Cool comment. 😊

[@oxford17]

“Walkin’ After Midnight” is also fabulous

[@joycarr541]

Simply the absolute best my favorite singer of all time.

[@niky9226]

Theres was no way I was missing this one! 😊❤ What a legend😊and reminds me of the late nights my mom would play her records rocking in her chair 😇

[@katfinn9352]

Thank you for this reaction. Anything by Patsy Cline is unbelievably beautiful and soulful. She was considered to be a country (western) artist.

[@lisal6121]

This is just TALENT. The beauty of the music and songwriters of the time was amazing. No such thing as AUTO TUNE! You had to have the talent.

[@michaelpennington7800]

I've known this music from my childhood. It is satisfying to see young people find, enjoy, and relish her outstanding voice and music.

[@NativeTexan-fm5dy]

Great reaction. Patsy Cline was one of the all time greats.Tragically lost at the height of her career in a plane crash.

[@Princess_karen]

No auto tune, just beautiful singing

[@artmendelson3818]

Home Free does an amazing cover of this song!

[@1aleckman1]

Hi Nick! Great reactions. I wanted to let you know that she is one of my all time favorites. Now, for the extra. Home Free does a cover of this song. Home Free - Crazy. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Have a great day!

[@SnugDK]

This is one of my all time fave songs. Love Patsy Cline

[@robertrussell5948]

Patsy Cline is from my hometown of Winchester Virginia and my mom went to school with her. Actually my families burial plots are in the same cemetery as hers. 😢😢😢

[@vickimingus9281]

cool

[@kimhurley7019]

Nick…you made my day…AGAIN! Patsy is one of my all time favorites. SWEET DREAMS was definitely her best and she didn’t live to see the incredible heights it soared too. She was instrumental in giving Loretta Lynn’s career a kickstart! Please do reaction on Sweet Dreams. You will be so glad you did. It’s a treasure and so are you! ❤

[@ronaldsinagra8825]

Her voice was so pure.

[@sonjarussell7332]

Since you like Patsy, you might enjoy reacting to the song “Blue” by LeAnn Rimes. Often compared to Patsy, she recorded the song when she was only 13 years old and was the youngest singer (at 14) to ever earn a Grammy!

[@fanofbooks9]

What a gift it was to listen to this on the radio all those decades ago.

[@robertrussell5948]

Her back up singers are the Jordanaires who backed up Elvis

[@erik1836]

Thank you for that bit of history and trivia - it adds a little bit of fun knowing to the rendition!

[@dianeashworth2311]

If I were a C & W singer,I would never sing one of Patsy’s songs. I couldn’t compare to being to her. RIP Patsy Cline!

[@erik1836]

Some songs, as you rightfully point out, are so iconic, so wedded to the original artist that the dissonance caused by people hearing you and at the same time comparing you to the original - is too great to ignore. I think you are right - it would be - unless someone could somehow do it better? - a grave mistake to try to do a cover of a Patsy Cline song. Her voice is just too unique and unforgettable.

[@melzy0146]

Leann Rimes imo does Patsy Cline right, pays her the utmost respect she so deserves.

[@kirkcox9162]

A great Queen of country music she was a beautiful person.

[@willieb3765]

besides having such a beautiful voice, Patsy internalized every song she sang it seems,, she felt the emotion of the story the song told, listen to Faded Love, you can hear her crying at the end of it. Had been a long studio session yes but the emotion was there

[@DianneRed]

Nick, Patsy died in a plane crash with several others, like Buddy Holly and etc....They hit the side of a mountain....so so sad! We lost a lot of talent in that accident. Also.....Willie Nelson wrote this song......he's another great! Love your video here....I smile through the whole thing like I was there with you.....Blessings!

[@TomWard-s7t]

She was a Country music artist and the first to crossover. She would have been a superstar without a doubt.

[@ellenl.5581]

I love her "I go out walking after midnight".

[@MrJohnTeacher]

The background singers were 'The Jordonaires' famous for being Elvis Presley's background singers from 1955 through to about 1970.

[@wpollock1]

All my kids and my nieces (in their 20s) love Patsy....great melodies never die! "Shes Got You" is one of my favorites.....it is so beautiful!

[@SheriRoyston]

Patsy Cline was sure one amazing singer

[@Emilyhildegaard1]

Gorgeous voice.

[@earm2804]

The song Crazy was written by Willie Nelson

[@chazcp]

First female inducted in the County Music Hall of Fame. Head band covers scars from a head on collision, happening just weeks before this appearance.

[@artbagley1406]

She puts an ache in your soul with her pure treble-heavy singing voice.

[@iamhere4now980]

Hey Nick Patsy grew up right here in my home state. Peace and love from the state of Virginia thank you for sharing.

[@beckyd.236]

She was incredible!!!

[@Shermanite0623]

Beautiful song, and beautiful voice.

[@m.harrison2151]

Do yourself a favor and check out Home Free’s version of this song. Austin sings the lead in the same key as Patsy Cline! Why? Because he can! Not to be missed! You will love it! Please do it!!

[@beckiramsey9561]

Definitely Nick, you must check out this!!❤❤

[@debbiestumm511]

For sure check out Home Free version! Austin kills it in her key!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@carlgoold1483]

I just came across your channel and I am so glad I decided to watch a few of you videos. Patsy Cline and The Everly Brothers took my breath away. You have a real gift and I look forward to hearing and watching more of your channel.

[@SlouchingTowardsWalMart]

my mom always loved patsy cline. this song, along with "i fall to pieces," "she's got you," "walking after midnight," and "you belong to me" -- her whole discography, really, was the stuff my childhood was made of. thanks for the trip . thanks for the trip back. 🥲

[@geraldjensen6831]

One of the finest voices of our times--in ANY genre!

[@larrygranbois4164]

I was 11 years old when she came out with this song. Patsy is so good!

[@ToniSolin]

Another pure voice, like Patsy tragically cut short, is Karen Carpenter. I think you would enjoy her too.

[@angelamiller6275]

Now, you need to do Home Free's cover of this song.

[@andycofin6983]

The work ethics of singers and musicians from the earlier decades definitely shows. This wasn’t just a quick money scheme or an attempt to gather a following so as to be an influencer. These people worked on their craft night and day, more than most people work at their jobs these days. If we could develop the same dedication our fore-bearers labored the music industry could soar to new heights. Society’s love for money destroys everything it touches.

[@donnaflynn9615]

Watch some Home Free and see those kinds of people you are talking about. They have done a fantastic job of covering this song sung in the same key as Patsy.

[@carolineduffy7502]

She is truly a Legend. Most pure and besutiful voice. You should listen to Sweet Dreams, You Belong to me, all her songs are just brilliant. Pure Gold, as you said. Loved your reaction. Excellent Taste in Real Music.

[@kathrynhlavac-sb7ny]

Another beautiful voice gone too soon. 😥 She was only 30 when she died.

[@ednafenton7558]

Patsy Clines is the standard all other female Country Singer are measured against. She's been gone for 61yrs now & people still buy her songs! She is the only singer who can cry & sing at the same time & still be perfect. Listen to "Sweet Dreams," & my favorite "Faded Love." By the end of "Faded Love" you to will be crying with Patsy. She will break your heart. Patsy felt every song she sang. There are 5 women in Country Music that broke the door down for the other female singers. They are, 1 Kitty Wells 2 Patsy Cline 3 Loretta Lynn 4 Dolly Parton 5 Tammy Wynette. You need to ck out all 5 of them. Patsy & Loretta Lynn were best friends. Loretta was devastated when Patsy died.

[@dawnmartin4625]

It’s so effortless, like she’s not even trying. Everybody in my family is a Patsy Cline fan because she was my grandparents favorite. Look up LeAnn Rimes, she recorded a song called Blue in the mid late 90’s, she was only 16. The song was written for Patsy but she died before recording it. LeAnn did great justice to Patsy.

[@cherylmack1260]

Thanks Nick. She is one of the greatest of her time. I favored singing her songs when out doing Karioke. It still brought lots of applause and memories to the patrons in the bars even if I can't sing as well.

[@annmariemitchell2532]

I just love your take on the lyrics of the songs you react to. I love Patsy Cline and the music around that time and earlier 50’s and 60’s early 70’s is my era. I do like lots of kinds of music and can get lost in so many songs. Thanks for sharing Nick. X

[@sonjarussell7332]

For more of Patsy’s story, the biographical movies “Sweet Dreams” (staring Jessica Lange) and “Coal Miners Daughter” (about Loretta Lynn (Sissy Spacek) and Patsy Cline (Beverly D’Angelo)) are two excellent introductions to their lives and careers. Both actresses did great jobs with the vocals. They might make fun reactions! (hint…hint!)

[@joelmoreno4223]

Nick: your audio is great, amoung the very best I've heard on You Tube, thanks!😊

[@bluesky-rb8fn]

MAGNIFICENT!!!❤❤❤

[@a.e.rivera-weaver8175]

Great review 👏 Patsie was a legend, icon and phenomenal vocalist. Just a bit on this performance, it was a sound stage, you can tell by the wires coming out the bottom of the fake walls, and the musicians werent actually playing the instruments, she was lip singing to her single, this was common back then and even now today. They wanted the perfect take as most times these were live TV spots. Great job❤

[@JamesGanley-c9p]

like your comments about patsy, Karen carpenter, and Bo Burnham. These three have knocked me off my feet. I'm learning at 70 yr old , I may not have been wrong.

[@bobbiemarsden4340]

So beautiful thank you

[@ColleenCarr-l9w]

Just saying…..you need to hear Home Free do their rendition…

[@DavidBrown-nr9py]

That is not a choir in the background. That is The Jordanaires. 4 men. They did backup on all Patsy's albums.

[@richzip]

Thanks Nick! Ill be sure to request more Patsy soon! Defi itely something to enjoy with a glass of scotch!

[@leeannies-tears369]

Loved it ❤ Thank you

[@beckiramsey9561]

This is the version I have heard first by Patsy! Love it!! Beautiful!!❤❤❤ You have to checkout Home Free’s version with Austin’s lead in the same key as Patsy! It is sooooo beautiful!! 🔥🔥 Love your reactions Nick!! Thanks!❤

[@CrazyMaryJo]

At 75, remember well. Tom Odell has new CD, Black Friday. Title song all over KZbin. Graham Norton, Mahogany Sessions, Amazon Curve.

[@williamflouro6021]

Mack's friend Roy Drusky suggested he pitch "Blue" to Patsy Cline in an effort to make the song a hit, so Mack gave a tape to Cline's husband Charlie Dick, but Cline died in a plane crash in 1963 before she could record it. The song "Blue" became a multi-platinum hit for LeAnn Rimes, in 1996 at the very young age 13. You should check it out and react to it. Both voices are so beautiful.

[@manuelahrasky8472]

You recently did reactions to k d lang. Patsy Cline was a huge influence on k d, especially in k d’s early years when she was quite C&W. indeed, k d’s backing group at the time was called The Reclines, a clever play on Cline’s name. Cline died tragically young in a plane crash.

[@arl1958]

Not sure if you've seen Leann Rhimes video ....Blue....she is like Patsy Cline reincarnated. Just 13 when she made the video..she also did a Patsy Cline tribute years later that was phenomenal

[@Judy0910]

I also like "Why Can't He Be You. " background singers are The Jordinaires, and they also sang background for Elvis. Patsy was killed in a plane crash in 1963.

[@krazyj1957]

Willie Nelson wrote Crazy and Patsy originally turned it down, after changes were made she recorded it.

[@jaspermatty]

There was a movie made starring Jessica Lang and Ed Harris. If you haven’t seen it yet - it’s pretty darn good.

[@maryhampton8686]

What a voice!!!!

[@TerriCzako]

If you’d like to learn more about her life while she was a young woman up until her death and all she had to overcome only to be killed so young plus an opportunity to hear many more songs watch the movie Sweet Dreams with Jessica Lange as Patsy and Ed Harris as her husband Charlie. The fact that she achieved so much success and is recognized by even my young children even though dying only 8 years after beginning her singing career and amazingly only 3 years after signing with Decca Records, the label that released the songs responsible for launching her ink American country singer icon status by using her the sadness she naturally conveys when she sings about love and loss. She makes you want to cry because of how much she makes you feel her pain and sadness. She’s my all time favorite singer from any genre. No one has ever come close to that kind of depth in their voice without laying multiple tracks. I wish I could have been alive to see her live at least once. Her story is definitely one to learn more about. It makes me want to cry now thinking how a gift like that was given only to be taken away so so soon! I visited her grave a little while back to show my daughter and the Pennie’s on it were piled high, 100,000 on the average size grave that you’ll miss if you don’t know what you’re looking for. People still visit all the time. She was loved and I have a feeling you’re going to fall in love with her and her life as well!!!!

[@tahoebears]

That was a breath of fresh air. She was a legend, gone too soon. May I suggest Pink's new song " I'm all out od fight" It is not what you would expect from Pink.

[@Joe-o8f]

Nick, nobody can beat Patsy but Angelina does a great version of Crazy. Check it out.!

[@wendyillman188]

Didn’t know Bing Crosby played violin!

[@katiareact]

Please don’t forget to react more to Gabriel Henrique!!! You liked him so much at the first time!! Thank you, Nick ❤

[@DonaldWheeler-cs6hw]

To hear a modern day Patsy Cline, listen to Blue by Leanne Rhimes. She was 13 when she sang that song.

[@jbridg9429]

Floyd Cramer on the piano. Wow

[@dugswank]

Check for Willie Nelson's story of how he got Patsy Cline to sing the song for him.

[@robertehrenstrom6670]

Must do K. D. Lang singing Roy Orbison's Crying, After that try and sit through Symon and Garfunkel's Scarboro Fair

[@lucygerbich6560]

That's real Singing.

[@joeskinner6009]

GREAT REACTION.

[@nickforell1]

Thanks Joe!

[@joycetaylor3217]

Check out sweet dreams. I love her voice!

[@rickpallas2001]

Timeless.

[@MommaBird52]

That head band is covering a scar from a car wreck she had shortly before this recording. She died in a plane crash.

[@richardneilson1188]

Reminds me why, for many years, unless Patsy Cline was on the jukebox, I wouldn't drink there.

[@GranpaMike]

Miss Patsy was peerless.
