J.D. Souther performs "You're Only Lonely" live at the Farm Aid concert in Austin, Texas on July 4, 1986. Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001.

Farm Aid's performances are donated by the artists in order to raise funds and raise awareness for family farmers. They've raised their voices to help - what can you do?

Through all of this loss, folks will still be unnecessarily cruel. I was shocked when in another post he was accused of basically stealing Roy Orbison's musical style. Orbison was someone whom he idolized as a teenager. It is said that he actually wrote and arranged music for Orbison at some stage. People can be so unkind at the oddest time. 🎶 🎙 🎸 🥀

This man is an unsung hero of 70s rock. Such a beautiful voice and liquid style. He deserved to be recognized more as the exceptional singer that he was and is. He had an effortless, clear voice that was very much reminiscent of his influence, Roy Orbison. It all just goes to show that if you choose your heroes carefully, you can be positively influenced by their work and produce truly great work of your own.

@susanliberty5059 Год назад

When this song came out I thought J.D. Souther was copying the feel and sort of even the title of Roy Orbison's Only the Lonely. Then I watched A Black and White Night and learned J.D. is a huge admirer of Roy. This song was a tribute to Roy. Then I learned J.D. had written and co-written a ton of songs that were hits for others. Soft-spoken Southern gentleman who won't carry tales about musicians and others he knew back in the wild '70s. Cute too.

My God, this man had the voice of an angel…I would die a thousand times to have that vocal sweetness. Alas…I was blessed with a barrel-chest and a foghorn. Sad shame that anyone that sings this beautifully should have to deal with an inferior stage sound like this. My favorite Souther tune of all is "New Kid In Town." His influence can be felt, as well as heard, in many Eagles hits. I dare say he may have been the unsung hero of the band. "Best of My Love," "Doolin-Dalton," "New Kid In Town," "Victim Of Love," "How Long," to name a few. Make sure to read "Heaven & Hell" by Don Felder to get the lowdown on just how important JD was to The Eagles huge success.

@malcolmburns7320 3 года назад

The Eagles tried to get him to join them but he said it that many guitars in front just wouldn't be right among other things.

@TPoPArt 3 года назад

You may have a foghorn, but you write well. My mother heard this in the grocery store and it stopped her in her tracks. She said she doesn't remember it. When it came out she was working and taking care of two kids. She didn't take any time for herself and I guess she missed some good music. Makes me sad to think about. I hope she listens to all the music she wants now.
