    Don McLean's recording of the song went to No. 5 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in early 1981. His version of "Crying" also reached No. 2 adult contemporary and No. 6 Country. It fared even better in the UK, where it reached No. 1 in 1980, spending three weeks at the top of the UK Singles Chart. "Crying" was taken from his 1978 album, Chain Lightning. It became his second biggest hit in America.

    @stubass: I honestly don't know her material with the exception of the one I just did. I don't know a ton of covers because I love originals!

    Removal of the BT means mixing is finished. Nice work, guys! You don't need me for anything. :-)
