ooh, photo, you get another shout-out! :D
my favorite elvis album is 'from elvis in memphis.' it's not one that a lot of people have heard, but i think i agree with my brother, who said that elvis sounded his best around the time of 'suspicious minds,' and that's when this album came out. so here, in order to make you a bigger elvis fan (provided you ignore some of the pictures, this is old elvis after all), is my favorite elvis song.oh, and long before sting was stalking some girl, elvis was.

Mel, I'm so sorry! I can't watch video at work and forgot to come back to this last night!!
I'd never heard either one of those songs. And okay, so I have to amend my earlier statement.
I don't HATE Elvis. I like some of his songs, and I really enjoy his more bluesy sounding stuff. And it's incredible the way he crossed so many genre lines.
I guess it's just my typical response to something or someone who's overhyped...in order to be uber-cool, I refuse to love what everyone else is loving. Like New Kids on the Block (back in the day). Or Birkenstocks. Or saying, LOL. I don't do those things. Because I'm too cool for it.
But I think I may have done Elvis wrong. And for that, I am sorry.
I wasn't too cool for NKOTB. Nor was I too cool for Joey. (He was too cool for me though;) I was too cool for Birkenstocks though, until I got some generic ones that I loved until they died. :(
it's quite alright photo. i understand not liking over-hyped things. the last thing i want to like is something/someone someone tells me i have to like. but sometimes people like them cuz they're right. like nkotb. ;)
and Harry ;)
oh yeah! and if you listen to the background singers on 'wearin' that loved on look,' you'll hear elvis 'shoop shooping' with them :)
