Buddy Holly's plane doesn't Crash

Emperor Norton I said:
"Chantilly lace, propeller to my face"

"We're flying into a What? We're crashin' into a What?"
LOL. (Does this mean we both have a sick sense of humor?:eek::p )

Your scansion is off on "propeller", tho: one syllable too many.;)
 
If Buddy Holly went Country, I could imagine him working with Whiskeytown/Ryan Adams in the 90's.

If the tide turns against him in the 70's, I can imagine in '78 or '79 he'll release an album similar to Marianne Faithful's Broken English.

In the 90's, he'd retire from performing and becomes a producer.
 
Marilyn Monroe dies on the way to a Holly benefit concert at the Hollywood Bowl in August of 1962.

Jayne Mansfield dies of an overdose in her apartment in 1967. Rumors have it she was listening to Holly's latest hit.

Or

Marilyn makes it to the concert and meets Holly backstage which leads to her dropping her scheduled events to appear with Holly on his benefit concert tour. It becomes obvious both Holly and Monroe are fast friends which last throughout their long lives. Holly even plays at Senator Monroe's senatorial victory parties each time she wins her senate races.

Buddy Holly looking for a string of semi-comedic songs in '67 collaborate with several 'singing' movies stars including Jayne Mansfield and Monroe. Both become hit singles. Because of the publicity of the song, Mansfield later creates and stars in the tv series, 'Bombshell' which runs for 7 seasons. Several aging queens of the screen appear on the show including Monroe, Russell, Van Doren among others. Holly writes the theme song and later makes several appearances as himself on the show.
 
That's possible. A bit of WP reading says the influence of polka, waltz, & accordion led to creation of conjunto, norteño, & tejano. If he moves away from R&R, he might pick up norteño... (You do still see a 6-string "Mexican guitar" basso sexto} tho, so he might end up playing that.)
