Anyone else like the music of Hank Williams Sr? What are your favorite songs?

[bobbieinok]

Me, I like Jambalaya and Your Cheatin' Heart

ETA---don't know when I first heard his songs. Seems like they were just always there

[The Magistrate]

1. 'Lost Highway', Of Course

And 'I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry', the big hits. 'Rocking Chair Money' is a nice little thing that's fun to hear. But just about anything, really --- the man was a marvel.

3. 'Hear that lonesome whippoowill

he sounds too blue to fly'

'The Hillbilly Shakespeare', made Bartlett's Familiar Quotations with that stanza.

[Zambero]

2. Almost too many to mention

In addition to the ones mentioned, "Move It On Over", "Cold Cold Heart", "Honky-Tonkin', "Lovesick Blues", "Settin' the Woods On Fire", "You Win Again", "I Saw the Light". One of the best songwriters ever, and among the first country artists to be influenced by black musical genres including blues and gospel.

5. Yes and all of those. "Cold, Cold Heart" ❤️

[Foolacious]

12. I grew up on Hank Williams Sr....

He was simply Hank Williams then. I only recently found out that he didn't write one of my favorites, "Settin' the Woods on Fire".

4. "I Can't Help It"

Also, “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry”. And almost anything else he did. The Eternal Hank.

6. big Hank Williams fan here

Some of my favorite songs that he composed are "I'm so Lonesome I could Cry", "Lovesick Blues", and "Cold Cold Heart". And I love "Lost Highway", though Hank didn't write that one.

7. Some classic songs; but, I can't get past him leaving us with Hank Williams Jr.

[Zambero]

10. Hank Williams Jr.????

Who might that be? Never even heard of him!

[bobbieinok]

14. I think jr's daughter recently died in a car accident

[JustGene]

8. "Hey good lookin" brings back good memories

[yellowdogintexas]

16. It does for me too.

When I was a little kid, my mom's stepbrother would grab me up and dance me around the room, singing that song.

11. Just opened a Hank Williams playlist

I haven't listened to him in a very long time (used to be one of my dad's favorites).

[raccoon]

13. Your Cheating Heart, Take These Chains From My heart,

I Can’t Help It. I’d say they’re my favorites but I like most all his stuff. He puts so much emotion into his songs.

[yellowdogintexas]

15. those are my favorites also.

He was such a talent

17. I've never heard a song by Hank that I didn't like. It's a shame he died so young...
