Patsy Cline | Walkin' After Midnight (1957)

"Walkin' After Midnight" is a song written by Alan Block and Don Hecht and recorded by American country music artist Patsy Cline.

The song was originally given to pop singer Kay Starr, however, her label rejected it. The song was left unused until Hecht rediscovered it when writing for Four Star Records.


Originally Cline was not fond of "Walkin' After Midnight", but after making a compromise with her label she recorded it. However, the first released recording was by Lynn Howard with The Accents, released in August 1956.
