The name Patsy became popular in the English-speaking world due to the cultural impact of the iconic Irish-American singer, Patsy Cline. Her shooting-star career was cut short by a tragic plane crash in 1963, but she is still revered as country music's first mega-star. "Cline's voice was the altogether androgynous voice of country: her timbre had a woodsy, earthy roughness and a plaintive, keening bite" - Maureen W. Smith, Singing in the Social Swirl: Country Music in Postwar America (2001).
