根據排行榜的紀錄來看,很多歌變成暢銷曲之前曾經被別的歌星拒絕過,其中Patsy Cline的冠軍曲"I Fall To Pieces"就是其中之一。
"I Fall To Pieces"的詞曲作者是Harlan Howard 與Hank Cochran,Howard的太太Jan Howard當時叫Harlan Howard 與Hank Cochran二人把 "I Fall To Pieces"去錄一個試唱帶,並想辦法去推銷,他們倆就找了Roy Drusky試聽,Roy聽過之後很喜歡,然後推薦給他的製作人Owen Bradley,但是Owen不贊成Roy錄這一首歌,因為他認為女聲比較適合這一首歌。
後來Patsy
Cline被製作人Owen Bradley約到辦公室,他接了Roy
Drusky沒有錄的這一首歌,她心想別人不想要的歌推給她,所以也不是很高興,但還是同意去錄,沒想到這一首歌後來大受歡迎。
Decca唱片公司推出Patsy Cline的單曲唱片“I Fall To Pieces”,於1961年四月三日進入鄉村歌曲排行榜,後來獲得二週排行榜冠軍,這一首歌是Patsy Cline的第三首進排行榜的歌,停留在排行榜上達39週之久。
“I Fall To Pieces”在流行歌曲排行榜也獲得第12名,在Grammy等各種音樂獎項中都獲得好評。
I fall to pieces
Patsy Cline
I fall to pieces
Each time I see you again
I fall to pieces
How can I be just your friend
You want me to act
Like we've never kissed
You want me to forget
Pretend we've never met
And I try and I try
But I haven't yet
You walk by and I fall to pieces
I fall to pieces
Each time someone speaks your name
I fall to pieces
Time only acts to the play
You tell me to find someone else to love
Someone who loves me too
The way you used to do
But each time I go out with someone new
You walk by and I fall to pieces
