Story about this misheard lyric by: Nathan D. When I first heard Mindy McCready singing two years before her passing, My mom was doing spring cleaning while listening to Mindy's album Ten Thousand Angels, she turned me into a McCreadian because of A Girls Gotta Do (What a Girls Gotta Do). Anyway for 9 years, I always thought Mindy was singing "The next thing I did was put my records on" until after I rediscovered her and reading the lyrics online. I was like that ain't right. I played the song for my mom and asked her and she said "Mindy is singing Red Dress not Records" |

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):
"Memorial Service"
Mindy McCready's time in Nashville was filled with music, and her memorial service in Music City reflected that. Old friends Bryan White, Lorrie Morgan, and Bekka Braunlett sang for McCready and family members spoke about her difficulties and triumphs during the hour long rememberance at the Cathedral of the Incarnation. The Nashville memorial attended by 200 comes two weeks after her funeral in her home town of Fort Myers, Fla. McCready, 37, shot herself last month of the front porch of her home she once shared with fiance David Wilson, in Heber Springs, Ark.

"Suicide"
Mindy McCready, who hit the top of the country charts before personal problems sietracked her career, died February 17, 2013 in Arkansas in an apparent suicide. She was 37. The Cleburne County Sheriff's Office said in a news release that McCready was found dead at a residence in Heber Springs from what appears to be a single, self-inflicted gunshot to the head. An autopsy is pending. McCready had attempted suicide in July 2005, overdosed in September 2008, and slit her wrists in December 2008. In May 2010 she was hospitalized briefly after police responded to an overdose at a home owned by her mother. McCready's longtime boyfriend David Wilson killed himself last month on the same porch police found Mindy. She had entered a court-ordered rehab earlier this month after her father told a judge that she was no longer taking care of herself or her children and was abusing drugs and alcohol. She is most remembered for her 1996 hit "Guys Do It All the Time" about male chauvinism and her 1996 album "Ten Thousand Angels" sold 2 million copies.
