• At the start of Rimes’ singing career, the media often remarked that her rich vocals sounded like a “young Patsy Cline”, and she was often nicknamed “The Next Patsy Cline” with the popularity of her hit single “Blue”, a song originally intended for Cline to re-record when the original recording of the song by Bill Mack did not become a hit. (“Blue” was written in 1956 by Bill Mack, who also sung and released it in 1958 as his own single backed with “Faded Rose”; his recording received limited airplay but it did not become a hit. Contrary to claims, Cline was not the inspiration for the song. According to Mack in a 2011 interview for DFW.com, he wrote “Blue” in 1956 while strumming his guitar and the words and lyrics just came to him; his wife thought it sounded great so he recorded it as his 1958 single. Mack wanted “Blue” to be re-recorded by Cline in an effort to make the song a hit, but she had died in a plane crash in 1963. However, Rimes was not the first singer to record “Blue”; aside from Mack, “Blue” was previously recorded by at least four more artists prior to Rimes: Kenny Roberts, Kathryn Pitt, Polly Stephens and Roy Drusky.
