"Walkin' After Midnight" "In an effort to secure a country hit, Bill McCall commissioned songwriter Donn Hecht, who suggested "Walkin' After Midnight", a blues-styled number that he had initially written for Kay Starr, who had turned it down. Cline did not like the song either, claiming it was "nothing but a little old pop song". Under pressure from Decca (who leased her records from Four-Star), she recorded it, on 8 November 1956, in a session that also included "A Poor Man's Roses (Or A Rich Man's Gold)" and "The Heart You Break May Be Your Own". On 28 January 1957, although preferring "A Poor Man's Roses", she sang "Walkin' After Midnight" on the Arthur Godfrey Talent Scouts show. On 11 February, Decca released the two songs in a picture sleeve on 78 rpm and it immediately entered both country and pop charts. Cline first sang "Walkin' After Midnight" on the Opry on 16 February. The song finally peaked as a number 2 country and number 12 pop hit."

Crazy, written by Willie Nelson! Yea, I remember Arthur Godfrey. I was a kid, but I remember him like it was yesterday to me. I remember Patsy Cline too. She was my mom's favorite and we heard her songs all the time growing up. My mom cried when she died in that plane crash. Very sad.
