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 successfully cross over into pop music. 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.
Cline's first professional performances began
at the local WINC radio station
when she was fifteen. In the early 1950s, Cline began appearing in a local band
led by performer Bill Peer. Various local appearances led to featured
performances on Connie B. Gay's Town
and Country television broadcasts. It also led to the signing of her first
recording contract with the Four Star label in 1954. She had minor success with her earliest Four Star
singles including "A Church, a
Courtroom, Then Goodbye"(1955) and
"I've Loved and Lost Again"(1956). In 1957 however, Cline made her
first national television appearance on Arthur
Godfrey's Talent Scouts. After performing "Walkin' After
Midnight", the single would become her first
major hit on both the country and pop charts.
Cline's further singles with Four Star
Records were unsuccessful, although she continued performing and recording. After
marrying in 1957 and giving birth in 1958, she moved to Nashville,
Tennessee, to further her career. Working with new
manager Randy Hughes, Cline would become a member of the Grand Ole Opry and then move to Decca Records in 1960. Under the direction of producer Owen Bradley, her
musical sound shifted and she achieved consistent success. The 1961 single
"I Fall to Pieces"
would become her first to top the Billboard country chart. As the song became a
hit, Cline was severely injured in an automobile accident, which caused her to
spend a month in the hospital. After recovering, her next single release "Crazy"
would also become a major hit.
If you are sincere
When you say you don't care
That our love is just a memory
If the love that we knew
Won't bother you
Darlin', you're stronger than me
CHORUS:
For if still lovin' you means I'm weak
Then I'm weak
For I still fall apart when we speak
Or we meet
If the love that we knew
Won't bother you
Darlin you're stronger than me
If you can have fun
With some other one
With no thought of what used to be
If it's easy to say
That it's better this way
Darlin you're stronger than me
REPEAT CHORUS
