LeAnn was the first to sing her hit Blue, it was offered to Patsy Cline but she declined to record it. It was written by Legendary Country DJ Bill Mack. Bill Macks biggest moment in music came in 1997 when his song, "BLUE", made Leann Rimes and he won a Grammy when it was voted "The Country Song Of The Year", the highest honor that can be bestowed on a songwriter.

Correction 1: Patsy didn't decline to record it. She died before she even heard the song. Bill Mack, the writer never had the chance to give it to Patsy.

Correction 2: Leann Rimes was not the first to record the song. Bill Mack and Kenny Roberts each recorded versions of the song in the 1960s and Australian singer Katheryn Pitt released a version of the song in 1993.
