Also, chadgates, I think that you missed the most quintessential "Lonely" song that there is. And which had been covered by a plethora of other artists including R&B and instrumental artists.

But it's all good.

My favorite Lonely song is You're Only Lonely by J D Souther.

It charted for 21 weeks.

If you are going to include Lonesome:

Are You Lonesome Tonight? Elvis


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cS5aCozhcA

Topping Billboard's Pop Singles chart and reached Number 3 on the R&B chart. Topped the UK Singles Chart, too. Presley's version was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America in 1961 and upgraded to double platinum in 1992. (per Wikipedia)


Lonesome Town - Ricky Nelson



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uN7mjvok6MI

Made it to Billboard #7 in both the US and UK.
