Recommendation:Artist: Patsy Cline
Song: Why Can't He Be You
Seriously, people. Patsy Cline. I was just listening to this song, sort of idling along with the pleasant description of her faithful, caring, perfect-husband-and-father man. It culminates in "He loves me too / His love is true" before pausing to deliver the gut punch of the title: "Why can't he be you?" And the delivery is absolutely top-shelf fucking brilliance.
It may be the case that my intense love of Neko Case stems in part from her position as the closest approximation of Patsy Cline to exist in my lifetime. I should study this more closely.

Comments:![]() When you recommended Patsy Cline before, I thought, "Gosh, she sounds a lot like Neco Case. Or, vice versa."
![]() A critical difference, I suppose, is that Neko Case writes her own music, whereas Patsy Cline did not. Then again, it was a completely different era, so there's that.
