Here are a couple more Johnny Tillotson songs that I overlooked. The songs
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry, and his hit single You're The Reason. Like all
of Johnny Tillotsons, songs, he had a unique way of making these songs his
own, and his style and grace in doing these types of songs is all but a lost
and forgotten art. He was truly one of country music's finest artists.
