7 Music Icons You Didn’t Know Were Killed in a Plane Crash
In honor of their careers and how they made us feel
It seems like every decade; plane crashes rob the world of amazingly talented people. When you consider the death of young artists like Aaliyah, it feels like musicians have not been favored by airplanes. This is unfair since they have to tour the world using air travel. In remembrance and honor of these icons, here are music stars who died in a plane crash.
Patsy Cline
On March 5th, 1963, the world was hit hard by the tragic news of a plane crash that killed the country music icon Patsy Cline. Cline blessed the world with hits like:
- Crazy
- Walking after midnight
- I fall to pieces
However, Cline had recently given her scrapbook to upcoming country music artist, Dottie West.
“It ain’t gonna do me no good. I’ll never live to see thirty.” Cline said in the process. Since she was born on September 8th, 1932, Cline’s predictions sadly came to pass.
