Give it a listen, and try not to agree!

In a non-country vein, though, how about "It Makes No Difference" by The Band?

"Sandy Sends Her Best" brings back memories. It was about 8 years after my divorce, and I was driving down the road listening to a Waylon CD that I had put together. That song came on, and for whatever reason, big ole tears welled up in my eyes. We had all moved on, remarried, were all good friends, kids were doing great, etc., but somehow the lyrics, together with the instrumentation, had struck a nerve. That sort of thing doesn't happen to me very often, but that day it did. A truly GREAT song.

You may teach the flowers to bloom in the snow,
You may take a pepple and teach it to grow,
You may teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds,
But you can't teach my heart to forget.

Now THAT'S a broken heart!

Like the mother who overhears her daughter playing with the kid next-door: "I don't want to play house, it makes my Mommy cry."

And, the steel guitar is superb.

Pa drove to town yesterday to pick out her grave
He found the lot where she'd lay
Then he drove to old man Ed Sutterton's place
To find him some peace
He got there round about twelve
And he stayed till three
And the sun left him down in the valley
But the moon met him up in the hills by the lake
Reflecting the ghost of ma's face

Suppertime came and went
No one heard from him
Sis left his food on the plate
At the end of the table right next to ma's place
Where nobody sits

The telephone rang bout four
My sister answered it
And I felt the noose through the floor boards
Like a long, sullen moan
Like a wreck on the road
Like a joining of hands

So, I drove to town yesterday
To pick out his grave
I found the lot where they'd lay
And then I drove
To old man Ed Sutterton's place
To find me some peace

Of course as you all know, the lyrics are even more powerful with the music.

Wow....you have to admit, that is one SAD song. Anyway, have a happy nice day y'all!

Also I really like Lloyd Green's steel with Junior Brown's vocals on "So Sad".
