Bob Dylan said of this Hank Williams song: "I'd never heard a robin weep, but could imagine it and it made me sad."
Hank Williams did write this song -- reflecting on the tormented feelings toward his first wife. "He imbibes the world around him on a random evening and finds every sight and sound to be a reflection of his own misery."
The instruments embellish the song with a sighing steel guitar and forlorn fiddle.
"Where others might be charmed by birdsong, intrigued by a midnight train, and enchanted by a falling star, Williams only sense sorry, anguish, and desolation." Pure genius. Thank you for reacting to this song.
Question, King of country?
@@jeremiahrose4681 the king of Kings!
Very well said
@@johnobrien2060 sorry that is Jesus
@@oldermusiclover huh?
Thanks for taking the time to get back to the roots of "country" music. The further country goes into pop, the less country it becomes.
I agree. Pop music with a southern accent still ain't country.
I wish i could thumbs up this comment twice!
Roots of rock and roll as well , listen to move it on over 1949, then check out rock around the clock . There is a reason hank is in rock and roll hall of fame. He lived like a rock star and died like one and well
Neither country nor pop music today is as emotional or poetic as they were back then. I guess that doesn't sell anymore.
country died in the 90's imo. There are still some gems here and there but they are few and far between. I'd recommend the song "Tulsa's Last Magician" by Willi Carlisle
He was a poet. “ I can’t help it if I’m still in love with you“: “Hey, good-lookin’!” “Jambalaya”, “LOVESICK BLUES “ “COLD COLD HEART!” Many many others
Of course, Hank didn't write LOVESICK BLUES but the poetry required in writing is put to use by a vocalist, too, and Hank was a master of weaving his emotions into words - no matter who put them together.
@@BuffaloC305 I disagree with you - - who do you say wrote it? And what do you mean “of course he didn’t“ it’s got his stamp all over it.
Cold cold heart is a classic
@@indiecab9593 it was written by cliff Friend and Irving Mills. It was originally a show tune.
Check out his Luke the drifter stuff if you think this is sad....I just told mama goodbye. Men with broken hearts etc
This song is one of THE BEST set of lyrics that invokes exactly what the man is feeling.
Can you imagine for us kids and their 60s and 70s we thought this music was so corny but upon later growing up in college we realize that this was profound music
I always thought it was great, but I have Southern roots on both sides of my family
Guilty! In the 70's when I was in high school, I thought the Eagles were too country. After I finally grew up, and learned to listen, turns out I just might have been wrong about music. Glad I got over my arrogance, and ignorance, and can now enjoy a wide variety of genres...aint maturity great! LOL!
So true. I wouldn't have gone near this, back in the day, but I love it now!
You can't really appreciate Hank until you've lived a little bit, tried to drink away a broken heart. They you understand, and it almost seems like he's singing directly to you, like he understands exactly how you feel and has is saying it out loud for you.
I’m guilty. Now in my mid 60’s there are many artist I thought we corny or Not Cool to be some of the best music I’ve ever heard. Lol
Hank wrote his own songs. He knew how to express his sadness like no other. I think he maybe lived to see 29 years old b4 the alcohol and drugs got the best of him. Sad story
one of the things about great song writers is how they can make lyrics sound like someone elses thoughts as in How did that person know who I felt
Hank Williams died at the age of 29 when his son was three years old. He suffered from spina bifida and did a lot of self-medicating to deal with the pain. Although he was considered a country-western singer, he established the basic pattern of popular song for the next five decades. He was inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In addition to "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry", the list of classic songs he wrote is lengthy -- "Jambalaya (On the Bayou)", "Move It On Over", "Hey, Good Lookin", "Your Cheatin' Heart", "Lovesick Blues", "Long Gone Lonesome Blues", "I Saw The Light", "Cold, Cold Heart", "Honky Tonk Blues", "A Mansion On The Hill", "Lost Highway", "Honky Tonkin'", "There's a Tear in My Beer" and more.
Audra, Hank’s wife, did her fair share of running around on him too. Which explains a lot of the pain in his songs also. He wrote a vast majority of his songs showing both his physical pain and mental/heart break pain.
Kawliga was a wooden Indian ☮️♥️😎
Mr Mike Caetano gave you a very comprehensive list of his songs. Dive deep and sample this man's versatility of talent. Never got into his sons music,but I love Sr's. Thank you for this reaction.
Hank didn’t write move it on over I can’t remember who did but all these other songs on this list he did write.
Question, King of country?
" Your Cheating Heart " old Hank is the certified father of beer drinking songs ✌️♥️
Classic song, Elvis Presley said, "This was the saddest song he'd ever heard!" The lyrics show just what a poet Hank Williams really was! "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!"
*and as I wonder where your are, I'm so lonesome I could cry.
That line is incredibly descriptive and powerfully meaningful.....thought provoking....emotion inducing...
My grandparents song was “Hey Good Lookin” by Hank Sr. Because my Grandpa had a pickup truck and $2 bills and they always went dancing!
The most beautiful and sad song. Greatest singer/songwriter ever.
"The moon just went behind the clouds to hide his face and cry!"
Pure poetic genius
That's DEEP!
This is country music in its purest form. Arguably the greatest country song ever written. I'm not a big country music fan, but I love this song. There's something about the raw emotion of it that just grips my soul. Great reaction, Harri 👍👍
I would agree with you about the song, but perhaps for a different reason. My comment to Harri :This commentary is one of your best and very intuitive. I would like to suggest that you also listen to the version by Linda Plowman. I hear the voice of an angel enhancing the brilliant ( in my opinion ) construction of the melody.I find it comforting, not depressing.I don't know why. But I do.The version that I Iisten to was posted by Randall Hamm. Thank you and thank you for all that you do. If my conclusion is incorrect, perhaps I am trying to live in a fantasy world.
The more times I hear this song, the more times I realize how beautiful the lyrics are. And I've heard it hundreds of times
In the late 80's or early 90's a previously unheard Hank Sr. song was found and given to Jr. Hank Jr. was finally able to do a duet with his dad. The song was : There's A Tear In My Beer. It turned into a award winning video.
This music is my first memory of music- Hank Williams (Hank Jr. wasn't around yet), and Patsy Cline were staples in our home.
Hank did indeed lead a very troubled life. He dealt with major depression when it was not understood. He was exploited by both his mother and first wife. He used alcohol and pills to cope. He was born with a spinal condition that kept him in physical pain. But all that gave the world some wonderful music.
Though this is old school country, You can definitely hear the blues in this song.
Not demons. It's a love song. The very last line is the key. 🗝️ Hank is the real deal. Pure, authentic American original.
Hank sr. is the country goat.
Even Elvis Presley said this was the saddest song he had ever heard. Thanks for playing some Hank Williams... he wrote and sang hundreds of songs. Many Chart busters. All before age 29.
Hear a Robin cry, when leaves begin to die.
He was lonely, and sad.
Died far to soon.
Grew up with this, born in 49, folks were country music fans. Hank was 29 when he died.
"The moon just went, behind the clouds, to hide its face and cry"......that's DEEP!!
Hank Williams is one of the greatest musician of all the time
Not only for country lovers
For all the people he inspired many generations
Hank wrote this song. He wrote most of the songs he sang, and a lot of his songs were covered by other artists. They called Hank the hillbilly Shakespeare and this song pretty much sums up why.
“The silence of a falling star lights up the purple sky,. And, as I wonder where you are, I’m so lonesome I could cry.” I’m in tears by the time he sings this line. His lyrics are the true star of his songs, and his voice is the perfect vehicle to deliver them. He was a brilliant, prolific songwriter, even though he died young. I adore Hank Williams, Sr, and I’m glad you were touched by his music, too.
And FYI...There is a good argument for Hank's 1947 song "Move it on Over" being the first Rock & Roll song. It has been declared as the first "Rockabilly" hit. But listen to the famous cover by George Thorogood, and suddenly rockabilly becomes rock.
The great Hank Williams wrote this!
Hank was an amazing song writer he once said if a song takes longer than a half hour to write it probably isn't worth it.
Hank wrote this song and many more, i would go so far as to say Hank Williams was one of the most influential singer/songwriters in music history...
The First Time I Heard This Song, I Remember Saying, That Is The Saddest Song, I Have Ever Heard! Marjie Australia.
Im absolutely shocked more people arent recommending "Lost Highway". THE definitive Hank song. No other song paints a picture of his life, like this cut. Haunting. Tragic. Insightful and almost whimsical, behind the overall bleak surmise of his entire existence to this point and the painfully accurate prophecy, of his own demise.
When Hank was a boy an elderly black gentleman taught Hank to play the blues on guitar.
I love the eeriness of that steel guitar and that steady thumping 3/4 time beat drudging along.
There’s a museum for him in Montgomery Alabama and he is buried here in Oakwood cemetery as well. The city hall in Montgomery is where they held his funeral.
I’m 69 years old and my dad was a huge HW fan while Hank was alive. Dad told me Hank wrote the song about his wife Audrey who repeatedly left him and returned. She later committed suicide. It’s in the movie about Hank Jrs life.
Audrey Williams died of congestive heart failure in 1975. Not suicide. : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audrey_Williams#Later_life_and_death
Maybe it’s just me, but somehow that steel guitar solo just “sounds” like the middle of a sleepless night. Sooooo mournful!
Like i said,the music sounds so sad..You hear it right away.I agree with yiu
Although country is not necessarily my forte, I’d say i’m pretty well versed in a lot of it. Hank Williams Sr. will always be the embodiment of country music to me. He was my mom’s dad’s favorite artist. My grandfather was one of my best friends and Hank’s voice always was always playing in the background of all my memories with him
This is exactly my story...Marty Robbins too. Thanks James
My parents loved country and it was all they listened to, probably why my preferred genre is now extreme metal.
There are a few country artists I still listen to howevet, Hank Williams, Johnny Cash and Patsy Cline.
Just no yodelling, please, no yodelling.
Many of his lyrics are timeless. An incredible song writer and his singing goes through your soul. He also had many upbeat songs too. A legend of all legends
Hillbilly Shakespeare.
Beautiful, tragically sad poetry enhanced beyond words with his voice and instrumentation.
Question, King of country?
This was the '49 country sound, but also the big band era, post WWII era, the Blues & so much more. Spending so much time with my grandparents, musicians as was mama, oh my, how grateful I am. Gran Loved the drums n slid an album, said Dance Girls !! and with wild abandon that primal beating coursed thru our veins, and we moved. A universal powerful calling, the magical sound of a drum beat 😊
Hank wrote this song my dear. 1949 the year I was born. I've always loved him.
Such wonderful lyrics. B.J. Thomas and Gary Morris covered this song. They did a great job.
I think the late BJ Thomas' version of this song is the definitive version for me. Such a well done cover.
I love that version. I think Gary Morris pours a lot of emotion in his cover. Both are excellent vocalists.
Hank was a true poet. When he died at the age of 29, he’d written nearly 160 songs
Yes, "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" truly is the greatest Country & Western song of all time.
It is so strange to realize that Hank Sr. was only 29 years old when he passed away......Just so sad. His voice is so haunting in this song, I love several of his songs. Jr. is a force on his own also.
It's the songs. Hank Williams wrote great songs that will always be around.
This might very well be, the greatest song of all time. Simply stunning
He was unparalleled. He'll never be matched.
His short life was full of highs and lows and his songs reflect both.
I think Hank was one of the most prolific song (poet) writers ever. Over 160 songs, some are still being sung my the newer artists.
Born with curvature of the spine he lived most his life in severe pain, eventually the combination of pain meds and alcohol took their toll and he died shortly before his 30th birthday. In a professional career that lasted less than Five years he wrote and recorded eleven (11) number one hits, and over thirty (30) in the top twenty. Called by some the Hillbilly Shakespeare, amazing talent, tragic ending, enduring legend.
To me this is the best of Hank Williams Sr. I have felt that lonely before. So I used to sing this song. Hank Williams Sr. had such a hard sad life. The woman he married didn't treat him very well. Plus he had his alcohol problem and it was bad enough that his friends at the Grand Ol' Opry used to have to give him coffee and walk him around to get him sober enough to go out on stage. Hank Williams Sr wrote and performed this song.
Hank had a really troubled life and he portrayed his pain in his songs, there is countless classic songs from hank, take a look at some more of his sad songs, thy burdens are greater than mine, I've just told mama goodbye,
Lonesome whistle blow, when God comes and gathers his jewels, the first fall of snow
When "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" dominated for YEARS after he died so young.
I grew up listening to the greatest country singers ever born. I was born in 1958, my parents only allowed country music to be played in the car. Hank Williams Sr, Red Sovine, Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Conway Twitty and so many more.
This is exactly how Hank was feeling. The all time great!
I’m an old school rocker, but love bluegrass and traditional old country and this song is one of my favs. I used to tear up hearing it. This was a transitional era when bluegrass was giving way to more mainstream country, so I’d consider this song almost a hybrid.
Elvis Presley loved this song. Before he started, he often said...."the saddest song i've ever heard".
It's devinitely sad,
but beautiful! ♡
Love the country vibe!
You really need to dive down the Hank Williams rabbit hole if you really want to understand Country music. His music is the root of the country music tree. He has so many great songs it would take you years to hear them all.
Hank Williams is one of the best lyricist of all time. He says so much so simply. I hope you do more.
Undoubtedly one of the greatest American songwriters (not just country) even though he only lived to age 29.
Hank Sr had a fantastic way with words. He was called the Hillbilly Shakespeare because of this. He won a posthumous Pulitzer. Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones and more reference him as an influence. His son and grandson_ Hank 3_ have been successful musicians. Now there is a great grandson recording. Not bad for a poor Alabama boy who died at age 29.
You really should listen to all his songs. Some are achingly sad and others are hilarious.
....when it comes to country, there's Hank Senior and then everyone else.......thanks for post.
Harri you have a wonderful and insightful ability to analyze and critique music. Very honest and genuine (very much like this song). I’m a classic rock fan first and foremost, born in the mid seventies, so a little later than my ideal time. But have touched on country music here and there though, especially love Johnny Cash. However, earlier this year I watched the most incredible documentary by Ken Burns, The History of Country Music. It was very comprehensive, 8 parts, 2 hours-ish each, but so compelling and flew by. There was a very in depth look at the life of Hank Williams and his impact on country music and music in general. He was an incredibly gifted songwriter, a rare talent, still revered today. After watching I really delved into Hank William’s music and I’m now a true fan. I would highly recommend that documentary to anyone who loves music, country or otherwise.
Thanks for this..is that docu on TH-cam?
I believe I watched it on Apple TV, although I think you may be able to find at least some of it on You Tube. It was originally broadcast on PBS, which is the American Public Broadcaster. I’m in Canada though so accessing it was less less straight forward. In England you may be able to take a look at the PBS website as see if it lists availability there. Hope you get a chance to watch it, it is excellent.
Thanx
Hank had an alternate character called LUKE THE DRIFTER with a song called Pictures From The Other Side of Life and I don't think it was his originally but he took it and talks about awful sad stories ,terrible tragedies about stealing and killing..that one is well worth listening to if you are not familiar with it yet ..
Check out a documentary called welcome to the club about the women of rockabilly it's on TH-cam hop you like it
The King of Country. He's influenced everyone from Bob Dylan to Patsy Cline, to Bruce Springsteen to Neil Young, Beck,,... in the new Beatlea documentary, Get Back, they sing a lot of songs, their own old songs and songs by artists they respect, or influenced them John Lennon sings a song Hank wrote and one of my personal favourites - 'You Win Again.'
My dad listened to Hank all of the time, I love his music, especially this song
He was known as the Hillbilly Shakespeare. He had a way with words. His first time on the Grand Ole Opry he had multiple encores because of Cold Cold Heart. And Hank Williams Jr lived in his dad's shadow for a long time.
My parents played Hank Sr. All the time and watched the Grand ol Opera! I love Hank! As a teen i could relate to his songs, break ups are hard and sometimes messy, but hearing that i wasnt the only one sad got me through the sadness. Thank you Hank Williams sr
He had such a ( cry ) in his voice. Lived a sad ,short life-29 yrs old when he died. He was a superstar in his day, wrote soo many songs,many in just a few min. Genious. And he lived with physical pain as well. Big influence on many artist. The words just tell you soo well of his pain. That pedal steal and fiddle -country. Many to choose from. Dan,north florida. Usa ../2/17/22ps. He did write this!
he was a poet....many many songs written by him and he died when he was only 29 years old.
You are now ready for "There's a Tear in my Beer", a unique collaboration between father and son.
This was the popular song of the country, literally. In the cities the songs in 1949 were totally different!
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. There's some artists out there who truly get sadness, and Hank was one of them. I can relate to a lot of it, but on the other hand I'm much older than Hank was when he died...
My god, my beloved friend who passed on. Wow, he loved HANK WILLIAMS, always played the old LP's and sang along to the music. I haven't listened to this country great in over 30 years. Thank you for this trip back in time. Miss you HARRY. RIP - FREIND.
I saw Jr. sing There's A Tear In My Beer w Sr. on a giant screen it was amazing! Double Eagle tour.
You know that was country music. It was just a genre of music. It wasn't typical American music of 40s. Swing and big band music was popular during that time. Lots of crooners from time such as Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby and Dean Martin.
one of his most famous songs, and one of country's most famous songs as well
This was my Dad’s favorite song & favorite singer, (we had a 78 record of it ) I remember him playing this song on his guitar & singing it. When my older brother & I had to pick a song to play at his funeral we looked at each other & just said no…we knew we’d never make it though it, so we picked Hank Williams song I Saw the Light.
"Thy Burdens are Greater Than Mine" "Pictures of Life's Other Side" Lonesome Luke and The Drifters AKA Hank. Williams.
The First Time, I Heard This Song, The First I Said, Was, That Is The Saddest Song, I Have Ever Heard. Marjie Australia.
Hank Williams was such a huge star before his early death and his son Hank Jr was so young, it was very hard for him growing up. He was expected to sing his dad’s songs and his father’s fans weren’t shy about telling him he wasn’t doing it right. Hank Jr wrote his own songs and sang them with his own style and had his own fans and career!
So proud of you for reacting to Hank Williams! One of America's best ♥️
Try 'Blue Eyes Crying In the Rain'
You said it all the voice is the star the music cried with the voice you are now listening to the hillbilly Shakespeare he lived it he sang it
He died in the back of his limo on his way from one city going to another at 27.love hank was one of the first songs I learned to play on gutair when I was 15 in 1975
the slide guitar was epic...LOL...just made you wanna cry...LOL..soooo soooo good.
I happy you felt him .Like Rap does to others.
The HillBilly Shakespear .The one and only Hank Williams !
Hank Williams wrote all of his lyrics. Thanks for the video.
Hank wrote songs about what he and his fellow countrymen/women lived. He could distill the crux of their problems into poetry and set it to lovely, plaintive music -- a musical magician. Hank's clearly defined lyrics make his imagery very poignant so as to touch every listener's heart and mind.
One of the best lines kinda sort of about Hank was Hayes Carll singing the line "Man, he's lying through his tooth, when he sings about his broken heart soaked in hundred proof" from Sake Of The Song.
This is what I grew up on. No T.V. Just a radio. This is all there was. I was really ready when T.V. And rock came around. It was a different world then.
Hank Williams was a great country singer and song writer, one of the very best. You picked up from his voice that he was a man in pain, and he was. A man who was in back pain much of the time, and someone who tried to ease his pain emotionally and physically, he was an alcoholic and user of morphine. He died at the age of 29.
Every note of this song is iconic, from Hank's coyote voice to the immortal pedal steel solo. He didn't just do slow songs; he's also known for upbeat honky tonk numbers like 'Settin' the Woods On Fire' and 'Howlin' At the Moon.'
He wrote his own music and the whole country listened to him.
Great songwriter, the pain in that song. He was only 30 when he died.
Hank died at 29 in the back of his Cadillac on a back road , he suffered from a severe disease in his back and was addicted to pain medication and alcohol. His songs where basically they way he felt and how he lived his life ..
My all time favorite singer. Listen to his Lovesick Blues. It's the steel guitar for me!
His son sang A country boy can survive!
My dad was personal friends with Hank. He told me stories of their friendship.
The beginning of country was based on the lives of the songwriter. It shows the frailty of the human condition. Sadly, in the popular country we hear now on the radio, that's gone. You gotta go deeper into the Isbells and the Childers or the Simpsons to get closer to that in the present day.
Prine is a prime example of how to buck the institution and play what you feel, as is Kristofferson, Willie, Waylon and I could go on and on. It's out there, you hafta wanna hear it
