Patsy Cline could do not wrong! She gave Americans "Crazy", and "I Fall to Pieces" in the very same year. While she was rocking the world with love songs, Ray Charles was keeping us lit up with "Hit the Road Jack". Dion made the scene with "The Wanderer" and "Runaround Sue". It just kept getting better and better.
