quote [ so "Sunday Morning Coming Down" is kind of more or less what I was living at that time. I guess it was depressing, I don't know, but the chorus was kind of uplifting. ... What I was really trying to do was to keep the feeling of loss and of sadness. ]
Interesting background on a good song. Wiki page has surprisingly little information. Was considered 6th of the 40 saddest country songs of all time* in the Johnny Cash version. I like the Kristofferson one better.
*where they criminally missed out on Porter Wagoner!

With all due respect to Kristofferson's reverence for the Cash version, this is the best performance of the song (Live in 2008 on the Late Late show)
