By the end of her performance, Rimes couldn’t help but be teary-eyed as the crowd cheered for her.
Rimes became known to the public when she was only 13 years old after she released her version of the song “Blue” by Bill Mack.
As Country Rebel revealed, the song was originally written for Cline but she was unable to record it because of the plane crash that ultimately ended her life.
