Good one!

That song was written by Texas own Bill Mack, aka the "Midnight Cowboy" from his early DJ days.

He helped LeAnn get her start with that song.
 
Here ya go, Larry

A word about Leann Rimes. Her first hit, Blue, came out when she was 13. She was immediately on the Grand Ole Opry, personal appearances all over the place, but before hitting the big time, she had previously committed to shows on other lesser venues, like county fairs and the like. To her credit, she appeared as contracted on all of them. My son was a country music fan, and had heard that she was appearing at the Kitsap County Fair in western Washington, so I took him to the performance. We had to park on the shoulder of a county road about a mile away. The fair usually set up a stage in the rodeo grounds in front of the grandstand (which only seated abut 300 people). Because of the huge response to her show, they set up the stage at one end, and let people stand in the rodeo grounds in front of the stage. She put on a great show, and we talk about it still. I'm sure she could have made more money by simply not showing up for these little shows, but she was good on her word.

Thumbs-up!

Loved Blue the first time I heard LeAnn sing it... she reminded me of Patsy Cline.
