Brenda Lee was big in 1958 with 'I'm Sorry' - at just 14 years old. If you don't know it, you'll know her 'Rockin Around the Christmas Tree'. She was her family breadwinner at age 10 by singing in events and for tv & radio. She had more chart hits in the States in the early-mid 60's than everyone but Elvis, The Beatles and Ray Charles. She left music for a while, remerging in the 70's a country singer. In June 1972 she released a song written by John Christopher, Mark James and Wayne Thompson - 'Always On My Mind'
Elvis released his version in November 1972, Willie Nelson 1982. But its not them I'm interested in.
Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe, Pet Shop Boys, are fantastic. They just...are. Rent, Its A Sin, Heart, West End Girls and here they are in 1988 making this country song their own.
Brenda Lee, in case you haven't heard it
