  • Randy Travis I'M So Lonesome I Could Cry live tribute Hank Williams
    "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" is a song written and recorded by American country music singer-songwriter Hank Williams in 1949. Williams wrote the song originally intending that the words be spoken, rather than sung,as he had done on several of his Luke the Drifter recordings. The song about loneliness was largely inspired by his troubled relationship with wife Audrey Sheppard. With evocative lyrics, such as the opening lines "Hear that lonesome whip-poor-will/He sounds too blue to fly,"
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I%27m_S...
    Hank Williams I'M So Lonesome I Could Cry lyrics
    Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
    He sounds too blue to fly
    The midnight train is whining low
    I'm so lonesome I could cry
    I've never seen a night so long
    When time goes crawling by
    The moon just went behind the clouds
    To hide its face and cry
    Did you ever see a robin weep
    When leaves begin to die?
    That means he's lost the will to live
    I'm so lonesome I could cry
    The silence of a falling star
    Lights up a purple sky
    And as I wonder where you are
    I'm so lonesome I could cry

      @ Rodney Keldson, I love all 3 Singers very deeply, but to say that had it not been for Randy's Situation, and health issues, he would top Garth, or George is insanely crazy. Randy definitely had a great Voice during his tenure, but between his Alcoholism, and his health, these issues have taken a huge toll on his vocals, while both George, and Garth are still going strong, and between the 2, it's a strong tie in my heart for first place, because while Garth knows how to work a Stage, and bring a Crowd into a Frenzy, George can simply stroll out on a Stage, and just Stand there behind that Microphone, strum a few guitar chords, and sing, and bring the entire house to their knees, and it just doesn't get any easier than that.

    I've just listened to 5 versions of this, all quite good, but I think this is the weakest. I've not listened to Randy Travis before but his voice is a bit shaky and pitch dodgy at times at times. However, he does communicate emotion.
    Jerry Lee Lewis' version is the one for me. He has that keening, lost and lonesome voice. On some of these Country songs there is absolutely no-one better at wringing the emotion and feeling from a song, and he does it with this one too.
