Chad's Favorite Versions of "Always on My Mind" [Video]

Chadwick Benefield — Mon, 06 May 2013 12:19:15 +0000

Country music icon, Willie Nelson, is coming to The Centre in Evansville TONIGHT. Willie is bringing his Willie Nelson & Family tour to town and we have been celebrating over the last couple of months with ticket giveaways and more. A few weeks ago, we had a TAD POLL about Willie during The WBKR Waking Crew. And that poll was . . . What is YOUR favorite Willie Nelson song? I don't have to hesitate a second to name mine. It's Willie's classic "Always on My Mind." And, I must say, there are several versions of that song I absolutely love. While Brenda Lee recorded the original version, it's a handful of covers that are on my mind. Check these out.
