Patsy Cline, a popular singer of both country and pop music, tragically died in 1963 in a plane crash. She was in a light aircraft returning to her home in Nashville after a performance in Kansas City, and a sudden, very severe rainstorm caused the plane to crash, killing her and everyone else on board, reports The Boot.

Two weeks prior to the crash, she sang her first big hit, "I Fall to Pieces," on "The Glenn Reeves Show." "I Fall to Pieces" was her first song to reach #1 on the Country Music Billboard Chart, and tragically, shortly after it was released, the singer was badly injured in a car crash. Accoring to Taste of Country, she spent an entire month in a hospital recovering from her injuries.

After her recovery, her next song "Crazy" was also a big hit. She was known to joke about the coincidence.

"I recorded a song called, I Fall to Pieces, and I was in a car wreck," said Cline. "Now I'm worried because I have a brand-new record, and it's called Crazy!"

Friends of Patsy Cline report that several months before her death, she was talking about having a feeling of impending doom and even began giving away personal items to friends and family. She updated her will and arranged for someone to care for her children in the event of her death.

Many people have pointed out the strange coincidence that Patsy was in a very bad car crash after releasing "I Fall to Pieces" and then died in a very bad plane crash shortly after singing the same song. Coincidence? Or not?
