Weird, Sam!...had to jump in before I even read this thread because I've been marveling about this very song all week. I've been trying to write some country songs, and in doing random research on YouTube and lyrics sites I've come to realize that Willie Nelson is the best of them all, at least to me. (I'm purposely leaving out Hank Williams and the greats from 50 years back.) "You Were Always On My Mind" kept coming back to me with it's perfect structure and simplicity. I fully agree. "Crazy" is another obvious zinger, but so are his seemingly less serious songs, like "Hello Walls" with perfect, lean , mean imagery and a musicality that goes hand in hand with the words. Just a genius writer, and now I'll stop gabbing and read this excellent thread.
