LeAnn Rimes’ Stunning Tribute To Patsy Cline Will Take Your Breath Away

Patsy Cline is a music legend, leaving a lasting mark not only on country music but across various genres. Her powerful voice and heartfelt songs resonated with countless fans and fellow artists alike.

Tragically, Cline’s life was cut short in 1963 when a plane crash claimed her life during treacherous weather conditions. The news of her untimely passing sent shockwaves to the world, especially the music community.

LeAnn Rimes admires what a huge contribution Cline has had in the music industry. Interestingly, it has been suggested that Rimes’ breakout hit, “Blue,” was originally intended for Cline before the tragedy struck. At just 13 years old, Rimes recorded the song that would launch her career.

In her 2013 performance at the American Country Awards, LeAnn Rimes honored the legendary Patsy Cline by bringing two of her timeless classics to life.

The producers gave the performance a vintage touch as they used a black-and-white filter that complemented Rimes’ stunning white gown and a replica microphone reminiscent of Cline’s era.

Rimes enchanted the audience with her performances of “Crazy” and “Leavin’ On Your Mind”. She added her unique vocal style and heartfelt emotion to both songs, making it a touching tribute that connected with fans of both artists.

Since the video’s release in 2013, it has garnered over 6M views and 30K likes. Thousands of compliments are seen in the comments like “Beautiful, sassy, sultry, funny and has such a beautiful voice, she can sing virtually anything. Nobody does Patsy Cline like LeAnn!”

Another also commented, “Leanne Rimes in my opinion is the only Lady that could pull off this tribute to such a great and talented woman as Mrs Patsy Cline.I truly believe that Leanne could sing the phone book and it would become a number 1 hit across the Nation.”
