LeAnn Rimes's incredible performance of a medley of Cline's songs at the 2013 AMAs has become one of the most memorable tributes given to the country music queen.

The performance brought Cline back into the hearts of country fans. Cline's sudden death after her flight crashed on March 5, 1963, broke the hearts of her fans and fellow artists. She was only 30 years old at the time of her death.

The singer’s strong vocals and sincere emotion bewitched the audience as she gave soulful renditions of Cline's classic songs like “Leavin' On Your Mind” and “Crazy.”

She was in tears by the end of the performance, and it reminded the fans of why they had fallen in love with Rimes when she was just a teenager.

Rimes rose to fame when she released her version of the Bill Mack song “Blue” when she was just 13.

According to Country Rebel, the song “Blue” was initially written for Cline before tragedy struck and she lost her life.
