Lee Ann Rimes Ringtones for Mobile Phones
Today, Lee Ann Rimes has sold more than 37 million records all over the world, won two Grammys and also received other numerous music awards. She always spent countless hours, helping children and veterans. Born in Jackson, Mississippi, Lee showed first signs of her talent as a singer when she was just two years old. When she became five years old, she had already won her first talent contest, with a performance of "Getting to know you" that presented her dancing as well as vocal skills. Her music career began, when she was seven years old. This first compilation was sold only at her performances in the Dallas area and during her appearance as a featured artist on "Country music review" of Johnnie High in Fort Worth. At age of eleven, she recorded her second disc, "All that", at the music studio of Norman Petty in Clovis, New Mexico, where Buddy Holly and other rock pioneers had laid down some of their classic tracks. One song from her compilation, "Blue", had been initially written for Patsy Cline, who died before she was able to sing it. Thus, the Curb debut of Lee Ann Rimes - "Blue" made her a star at thirteen, managing a record-setting 123,000 sales just in its first week on its way to more than eight million purchases all over the world, and earning her two Grammy Awards, including the first "Best new artist" distinction ever won by a country artist. Her next compilation, "You light up my life - inspirational songs", remained in the global music history by releasing at number one in three different Billboard categories - country, pop, and contemporary Christian. Her following three albums topped the country listings again, while her singles also made equally deep impressions - one of them, "How do I live" from 1997, placed for an unprecedented eight months at number one en route to more than two hundred weeks on the country singles charts. Thus, the vocal range of Lee Ann Rimes would soon stretch past the borders of traditional country, from the edgy, attitudinal rock sounding of her contributions to the "Coyote ugly" soundtrack in 2000 and then to the more mature insights that she achieves on her latest record, the gold-selling "This woman" in 2004, which has produced two new Top 5 singles, too.
