I grew up listening to Patsy Cline. I was a huge Patsy Cline fan. I still am. Even though she's considered country, I think of her more as a blues singer. She's got a great blues voice, and she has such an amazing story, which I always loved.

Diana DeGarmo

The first songs I learned was 'Crazy' by Patsy Cline and 'At Last' by Etta James. I had been growing up with the Beatles, Pink Floyd, great bands.

Sabrina Carpenter

All Patsy Cline had to do was sing somebody else’s song and her version would outsell theirs because it would be so good!

George Jones

There's never going to be another Patsy Cline. Without her, I don't think I would have lasted.

Patsy Cline? Larger than life! She taught me emotion: raw, sincere, unashamed.

Reba McEntire

I am a Patsy Cline fan.

Charlie Day

My mom had a tape of Patsy Cline's greatest hits, and whenever we were in the car, she would put it on, and it got to the point where I knew all the words to every one of the songs, and I knew what order they came in on the tape.

Diana DeGarmo

When I first came out with Blue, everyone compared me to Patsy Cline, which is the biggest honor, 'cause I've always looked up to her.

LeAnn Rimes

Lee Ann Womack is from near where I grew up in East Texas, so I've always looked up to her. I sang a lot of Dolly Parton as a kid and a lot of traditional western swing, like Patsy Cline and Roy Rogers.

Kacey Musgraves

I love James Taylor and Carole King, Joni Mitchell - this is, like, early '70s stuff. I love the stuff from the '40s. I love that tight harmony that the studio singers in the '50s would sing. I love Patsy Cline. Yeah, I'm all over the place.

Jane Lynch

That Will Never Work' is the untold story of Netflix. It's how a handful of people, with no experience in the video business, went from mailing a used Patsy Cline CD and ended up with a publicly traded company.

Marc Randolph

There was this guy I used to work with, and he listened to Patsy Cline all the time, so I liked that after a while.

Undoubtedly, Patsy Cline was a trailblazer and in that respect, all women who are singular in a man's field have a special power.

Carly Simon

There was a junk store in Nashville on 8th Avenue, where I bought Patsy Cline's train case for $75.

Marty Stuart

When I was nine, I was singing western swing: Roy Rogers and Patsy Cline. It got me noticed because no one my age was doing it, but it made me feel inferior because none of my friends could relate to it.

Kacey Musgraves

It's wonderful that whenever Patsy Cline's name is mentioned, people's voices fall and they become right sentimental. And, rightly so.
