Johnny Guitar gets on my nerves. Ed cannot pull off that delivery at all.

I used to just flat out hate it, but once I heard Willie Nelson's version, it occurred to me that the composition is actually really nice.
This.

"Great" is a bold word -- it's a pleasant song, sitting right on that line between simple honesty and schmaltz, not much going on melodically or lyrically or really musically in any way but then again it doesn't demand much either. There are some live versions from '09-'10 with the string quartet that I really enjoy.

The 'I'm a lucky man to count on both hands the ones I love' is a great lyric

The intro to Mind Your Manners is better than every other song on those two albums with the exception of Johnny Guitar.
