In 1963 Patsy Cline went onto the studio to record a cover of the Bob Wills tune "Faded Love". That morning Patsy and her husband had a huge argument before she left, this could be the end of the relationship.

When Patsy was in the studio recording the producers could tell she was in an emotional state and it would be a good time to try and capture the emotion on tape by recording "Faded Love", about half way through the recording she realizes that her husband wasn't going to come after her and apologize this time and that she is living out the song as she sings it and at the 3:33 mark as she takes that last quivering breath to hit that last note, you hear the actual sound of a heart breaking.

Little did Patsy know that her husband had come to apologize and that the producers had locked him out as to not interfere with the magic that was happening in the studio. It turned out to be the last recording session for Patsy Cline, a month later she died in a plane crash.
