Favourite Elvis song
Jump to: Newest in thread
Elvis had the voice and the looks but he also recorded some fabulous songs with meaningful lyrics. In the Ghetto is probably my favourite as well but the below songs all resonate with me
.
Yes, we're different worlds apart
We're not the same
We laughed and played
At the start, like in a game
You could have stayed
Outside my heart
But in you came
And here you'll stay
Until it's time for you to go
.
.
Wise men say
"Only fools rush in"
But I can't help
Falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can't help
Falling in love with you?
.
.
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind (you were always on my mind)
You were always on my mind
.
.
We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
.
.
There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dream come true
.
.
In the interest of balance it should also be noted that for his movie output he did record some cringe worthy songs.

"Elvis was the best all round entertainer. My favourite Saturday night is (Alexa play Elvis Presley ) safe to say I’m a bit of a super fan  "
First let me say I've been to Graceland so not anti-Elvis. But he wasn't an "all round entertainer". He was just a singer and good stage performer who was exploited and manipulated by his manager into appearing in films and taken advantaged of by hangers for what they could get out of him.
Unfortunately, the entertainment 'industry' is littered with many people who because they became popular at a young age suffered similarly.
