No one sang this better than Patsy Cline, period. Listen to every version, then play Patsy's, no comparison.Don Gibson did a great version on RCA records though.

Your info seems to be in error. On March3 1956 I forgot to remember to forget by Elvis Presley was #1 on 2 charts' Why Baby Why by Red Souvine & Webb Pierce was #1 on the D.J. chart. Faron's version of Sweet Dreams charted on July 9 Don Gibson's original on august 11th. Neither one reached #1.

Actually Emmylou Harris is the only artist to take this song to #1. Faron, though, IMO had the best version by far. I never did like Patsy's version. For one thing it wasn't country and she sang it with more histrionics than true feeling.

@glipzik I've never heard Emmylou's version... I'll take your word for it. This is a tough song to sing... big jumps between notes.
