I don’t know about it being the greatest song ever written, but it certainly is a favorite of mine

Well, that’s not overwritten....much.
(But I do like the song.)

I liked that song, but I liked “Galveston” better.

I have 3-4 songs that rotate in my #1 position...but “Wichita Lineman” always returns to #1 for its melancholy musicality and the lyrics that deeply touches my soul from my own life experiences.
Glen was a member of the Wrecking Crew who also played on his recording including the great Carol Kaye on bass.
Glen borrowed her 6-string bass to play the solo break.
The best version is live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DmLTMxFGZ8

If You See Me Getting Smaller is a fabulous tune by Webb.

This is not the greatest song ever written. This is only a tribute . . .

The author seems like one of those people who writes with his thesaurus nearby. A lot of usages that seem a leeeetle off.

My favorite version of
By the Time I Get to Phoenix is by Vera Lynn.
The lyrics don't disclose where the singer's journey through Phoenix and Albuquerque to Oklahoma began, but I figure it was Goodyear, Buckey or Palo Verde, Ariz.

How does one pick *one* song to be the greatest ever? But if I was forced to do so it would have to be "Mr Tambourine Man"...written by...

It was always the descending figure just before “is still on the line” that got to me, like it does to Kristofferson in that clip.

Neither the songwriter Jimmy Webb nor the performer Glen Campbell were ever linemen... Neither Lee Dorsey, who scored a big hit with Working in a Coal Mine, nor the song's writer, Alain Toussaint ever worked in a coal mine.
