If Willie isn't my all time-favorite artist, he's extremely close. The amount of timeless music he has recorded is just remarkable, and his discography is so expansive I'm sure there's a lot of good stuff I haven't heard. Because Willie has covered so many standards and classic songs, I'll be mostly excluding songs written by or strongly associated with other artists.
Top Songs
Three Days
My Own Peculiar Way
Sad Songs and Waltzes
Darkness on the Face of the Earth
Yesterday's Wine
Me and Paul
Crazy
Ain't It Funny How Time Slips Away
Hello Walls
Family Bible
Night Life
Pretty Paper
Local Memory
One Day at a Time
I'm a Memory
Stay All Night (Stay a Little Longer)
The Window Faces the South
Whiskey River
Pick Up the Tempo
Bloody Mary Morning
Pretend I Never Happened
The Uncloudy Day
Johnny One Time
Mr. Record Man
Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain
Mendocino Country Line
Where Do You Stand
The Maker
Don't ask me to narrow that down, because I can't.

I am not too familiar with Willie's discography. I love his late 80s/early 90s stuff, then he got too diverse, I kind of lost interest in his stuff. They sound like he takes a different road with each album. Them I started to like him again with his new Gershwin album.
So, my choices below is based on his late 80Ss/90s stuff:
1. Ain't Necessarily So
2. Mr.Record Man
3. You Decide
4. Pieces of My Life
5. Nothing I Can Do About It Now
6. Healing Hands of Time
7. I Just Drove By
8. The Piper Came Today
9. Rainbow Connection
10.If I Can Find A Clean Shirt (with Waylon)
