ACM Rewind – Remembering Toby Keith

Before he became a country outlaw legend, Willie Nelson was already shaping the sound of American music—penning some of its most iconic songs, including a defining hit for Patsy Cline. One of his earliest triumphs? “Crazy.” Though now inseparably linked to Patsy, the haunting ballad was actually written by Willie himself. “We went over to [Patsy’s] house and had a couple of beers,” he recalled. “I didn’t get out of the car. Charlie [her husband] went in, and Patsy came out and made me get out. I went in and sang it for her—and she recorded it the next week.” From a reluctant parking-lot serenade to a timeless classic—that’s the quiet, unmistakable magic of Willie Nelson.

George Strait dressed up as a pizza delivery man to throw Alan Jackson a surprise birthday party — planned for three months, so well hidden that Alan thought he was being pranked! No fanfare, no grandeur — just a small backyard party full of love and laughter. George personally called friends, ordered a guitar-shaped cake, and even disguised himself as a delivery man to “break into” Alan’s home. When Alan opened the door, he laughed: “I didn’t order a pizza! Who are you?” — until George tipped his hat and strummed “Happy Birthday” on his guitar. Only 17 close friends attended, but they were all “big names” — and George’s gift, a never-before-heard song he’d written decades ago, brought Alan to tears.
