Fortyhboobs's blog post - And this vacation served as a reminder

Thursday, July 6, 2006, 8:52:35 PM
...of how much I love Patsy Cline.

Road trips are great if you have sufficient quantities of three things: water, snacks and tunes (air conditioning goes without saying *lol*). We brought dozens of CDs to listen to while driving but ended up mostly listening to a select several. One of them was Patsy Cline's 12 Hit Songs, an oldie but such a goodie. I'd forgotten how much I enjoy her torch songs until I listened to them over and over on vacation. What an ache she could put in her voice, and what range she had. D's favorite song of hers is I Fall to Pieces and mine is Crazy, penned by Willie Nelson, of all people.

It's a crime she died so young. sad

I gotta agree with D - I Go to Pieces always gets to me....

Oops, this needed to be edited. The song is called I Fall to Pieces, not I Go to Pieces. What was I thinking? Must have had a brain fart when I wrote this. (I refuse to call it a senior moment! LOL)

I didn't know you liked Patsy! She is one of my favorites. Timeless music and a timeless voice. I can't stand that oversinging/moaning type of vocals like Mariah Carey does. Hate it! Patsy never oversang. Her and Elvis are the best ever in my eyes!
