What song do you hate?

[ms_epblvd]

Of course we all LOVE OUR MAN, BUT you know there is that ONE song that just makes your skin crawl when you hear it. I know I will get stoned by some but I can't stand Old Shep. Just can't listen to it(n)

So what is yours???

Gina:hmm:

[Tony Trout]

Hmmm....



You all can shoot me but I'm not fond of "Blue Moon" and "Harbor Lights"

And, yes, I don't like "Old MacDonald Had A Farm" from "Double Trouble"....I'm pretty sure that everybody will agree with me on that one as well...Elvis surely must have had to take some strong stuff the day he recorded that.

Isn't there a story that has made the rounds about Elvis ranting and raving about having to record "Ft. Lauderdale Chamber Of Commerce"...or was he just moaning and groaning 'bout having to film that particular scene?

[Dorothy]

How about the whole darn album of Frankie and Johnny.....

[poormansgold]

For me there Two or Three I hate, the first one is "Love Me" All Versions, second is "I Want You, I Need You, I Love You" and Third one is Studio Version Of "Love Me Tender", i love the 1968 version better.
There My Picks
Tom

[King_Creole]

"Hate" is an incredibly strong word, and I simply cannot say I "hate" an Elvis song ...

Dislike, yes, but "Hate", na ...

[rhythmknights]

Hate, huh? OKay. I hate Blue Moon. Don't know why. I really dislike Love Me Tender. just my opinion, again, i don't know why! Actually, I don't like that echoing stuff in Blue Moon, it makes my skin crawl

[SeeSeeRider777]

He's your Uncle not your Dad. Man, I cant stand that song.

[rocknroll]

There are many I dislike just because Elvis dodn't seem to put much effort in them:

Raised on Rock
For the Heart
Sylvia
Padre


For the record, I think Elvis ROCKS "Old McDonald".(y)

[King_Creole]

There are many I dislike just because Elvis dodn't seem to put much effort in them:

Raised on Rock
For the Heart
Sylvia
Padre

I actually disagree with you on For the Heart rocknroll.

I think it was a good song.

Also, a good number for Elvis too try and get back into some boogie woogie, sliding bass, funky beat, country rock, I call it ...

Would have been great if Elvis had actually incorporated this track into his "Live" repetoire in '76 ...

The other songs you mention are spot on though ...



For the record, I think Elvis ROCKS "Old McDonald".(y)

I wholeheartedly agree ... (y)

[Getlo]

Puppet on a String
Do Not Disturb
The Sound of Your Cry
My Boy (all versions)

... several others.

[Rover]

I don't really "hate" any of them, but there are a few songs that I don't like, or think they're pretty stupid :)
Like, Old McDonald, We're gonna move, Wooden heart...mainly songs he did for movies :)

[riley]

I don't hate any of his songs but some are indeed not so good.
Some movie songs esp.

Elvis was way much to talented to bring such stupid childish songs.

What a waist of talent

[ReGina_89]

Personally i very much dislike his version on "Hey Jude" he killed the song for me :(
Love all the other songs thou

[Elvis]

I must say this i am a true elvis fan at 21 and i love evrysong he every sung R.I.P KING cos if u loved elvis so much u would love all his music

[antibuss]

I hate Love Me Tender, I can't stand it, I don't know why...

[Elvis]

lol I dont mind love me tender but i love today tomma and forever and at moment i am listening too its midnight i like that one

[ksimms2]

Have you ever heard him sing, "King Of The Road"?? Horrible.......that would be my pick. and to our member "Elvis" who is a 21 yr old faithful fan and says if you are a fan then you like ALL his songs - you must not have heard them ALL....I know I haven't. There are some songs that are just plain silly - someone mentioned his movie songs - some of those were horrid - and he knew it.

[ForeverTheKing]

"Hate" is an incredibly strong word, and I simply cannot say I "hate" an Elvis song ...

Dislike, yes, but "Hate", na ...

I agree (y)

There are few I don't like so much, especially from hollywood period...but I can't say I HATE them :lol:

[ricardo b. prospero]

I agree "hate" is a different thing from dislike. I am not sure if Elvis himself have the last word to the kind of songs his producer want him to sing. I really wonder why he wasted his time and talent singing some of those garbage songs unless it is dictated by whoever behind it. Does Elvis given the choice to pick the songs he want to record or was it the call of time. I believe he never enjoy doing songs like "Old Mc Donald" and those children songs. I hope we give our guy a break after all he is not perfect and vulnerable to commit mistakes. For me the song "Old Mc Donald" is a silly song for Elvis to sing. This just proves how Elvis became highly commercialized on the later years of his career.

[Elvis]

i have all his cds and since i was growing up i have heard nearly all

[marijaep]

Many hate Blue Moon, I adore that song :wub::blush:

I don't like "Ito Eats"..........(n)

[Getlo]

Have you ever heard him sing, "King Of The Road"?? Horrible.

Elvis never sang this.

[ksimms2]

Elvis never sang this.

uh, yes he did, I have it on a cd....I'll have to find which one and let you know....it may be one I downloaded myself.....but he sure did.....

[ksimms2]

i have all his cds and since i was growing up i have heard nearly all

wow, you must have quite a collection then.....he has country albums, gospel albums, numerous regular albums. You could probably dedicate a whole room to your house for all his music....

[Diane]

I can't say I hate any of his songs as I love his voice so much but I don't like the song Old MacDonald.

Diane

[Getlo]

uh, yes he did, I have it on a cd....I'll have to find which one and let you know....it may be one I downloaded myself.....but he sure did.....

Uh, no.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_of_the_Road_%28song%29

Maybe you're thinking of King of the Whole Wide World?

I don't think Elvis sang King of the Road, the Roger Miller hit. Maybe a one-liner somewhere, but no more than that.

Anyone?

[ksimms2]

Uh, no.

Anyone?

I'm trying to find it...and I'll post it.....he did sing the stupid song...and it sounded horrid....it may be on an Elvis CD I downloaded song by song.....have you checked "limewire"?? That is the program I use to download sometimes....

[ksimms2]

Getlo, I found it, it was a cd I downloaded myself using various songs....how on earth can I somehow copy this so you can get it? When I go home I'll open limewire and see if I can find it. I downloaded this in Aug 2004........

[Getlo]

Getlo, I found it, it was a cd I downloaded myself using various songs.

ksimms2, I'm prepared to bet my entire Elvis collection on it not being him singing this song! :D

I hope you make good on your bets when you lose Getlo! I even played it for a coworker and said, "man, I can't believe there is a song Elvis sings that I DON'T like...." I'll have to try and track down where it came from. And if it's not him singing it.....let me tell you....it's a **************** good imitator......and when I searched "Elvis" on lime wire.....this was one of them.....it's possible it was mis labeled by whoever uploaded it.....but I'm telling you....it's him or a real good imitator.....I'll check into further when I get home and can go on lime wire.

i have a spare comp for all his songs i got and yes i have orgnials as well dont get jeleous now HAPPY BIRTHDAY MALC FOR TOMMA (y)

[minty]

I think we should omit movie songs from the list of most hated songs as Elvis did not have much say over what was recorded for these.The songs Elvis chose to sing in the studio/live should form the list.For me it would be It's Impossible fat to syrupy for me and thankfully it was a short lived song

[Getlo]

I hope you make good on your bets when you lose Getlo! (y)

I have never, ever lost a bet on things like this. Songs, trivia, movies. I only ever make a wager when I know I'm right.

I think you'll find this download is an impersonator.

Getlo you could be right.....maybe that explains why I don't like the song? I'll check tonight when I get home....it was mis labeled then on lime wire or whatever program I used at the time....I wish you could listen to it - and give me your opinion in person.....or I wish there was a way to send it to you to hear.....

[malc07]

:clap::clap:Woo-Hooo Kelly...You were always someone special to us before!!!!!
Is Gelto talking about Ito Eats...I can never keep up with his replies...???

Okay Okay, HATE was a strong word...I just meant Dislike... :)

I am surprised to see how many "dislike" Love Me Tender... I dont like it either and I see others agree. And Padre and Sylvia?? I LOVE THOSE! Nice to see other opinions though.

Thanks Malcolm! No Getlo is talking about the song I said I don't like that Elvis sang....I downloaded and burned my own cd a while back and one of the songs is "King of the Road" and Getlo says Elvis never sang that.....but it sure sounds like Elvis and was labelled Elvis when I downloaded it.....so am going to check tonight when I get home....I am listening to the cd right now and it sure sounds like him.....if it's not him a VERY GOOD imitator. Getlo knows his stuff so I'm inclined to believe him......

[malc07]

I have Elvis singing KING OF THE ROAD ..Too Kelly...Gelto is wrong....

[presley31]

l was looking for king of the road sang by elvis and l didn't come up with anything.

[Getlo]

I have Elvis singing KING OF THE ROAD ..Too Kelly...Gelto is wrong....

Er, no I'm not.

As ksimms2 said, (and I will at this point agree with complete immodesty :lol:) I know my stuff. And Elvis did not sing King of The Road. I've been a fan for nigh on 40 years, and - like I said - I'm prepared to put my entire collection on the board over this one.

It has never been mentioned in any Elvis session book, recording site, collectors site etc. Not even as speculation. In fact, this thread is the first mention of it I have seen.

What is the name of the CD or website that it is from?

If anyone can find a link, please post it here.

The song, however, is listed under Elvis' name on some lyric and word sites ... but this is entirely incorrect.

Here are the lyrics, just to ensure we're talking about the same song.

Trailers for sale or rent,
Rooms to let - 50 cents,
No phone, no pool, no pets,
Ain't got no cigarettes, ah but
Two hours of pushing broom
buys an 8 by 12 four-bit room
He's a man of means by no means
King of the road.

Third box car midnight train
Destination Bangor, Maine
Old worn-out suits and shoes,
Don't pay no union dues.
He smokes old stogies he has found
Short, but not too big around
He's a man of means by no means
King of the road

(He knows) Every engineer on every train
All of their children and all of their names
And every hang-out in every town
Every lock that ain't locked
When no one's around.

I say, Trailers for sale or rent,
Rooms to let - 50 cents,
No phone, no pool, no pets,
Ain't got no cigarettes.
I've got two hours of pushing broom
buys an 8 by 12 four-bit room
He's a man of means by no means
King of the road.

Elvis never sang King Of The Road.Getlo is correct.

Wanna bet an Elvis CD??? :lol::lol::lol:

I'm serious here!

Remember: I only bet if I know I'm right about something, and I have never lost a bet of this type! (y)

[minty]

If ksimms2 downloaded this from Limewire it is very possible the song has been labelled wrong.If you go on Limewire now you can download Elvis singing Crazy Little Thing Called Love by Queen:hmm:Or is it A Thing Called Love.Elvis never sang King Of The Road

[Getlo]

It probably is. Considering the Queen song was written in 1980, it's a safe bet Elvis never did it.


Elvis never sang King Of The Road

Yes. Now that I think about it, I seem to remember hearing a version done by a (not very good) impersonator, so maybe that's it?

Don't know about any of you, but it usually takes me all of an eighth of a second to spot an impersonator from the real thing when any song starts playing. There are some reasonable vocal facsimilies out there, but you can always ... always ... spot the real Elvis, real quick. (y)

Im sorry to burst the bubbles.Elvis Presley never recorded that song.What you have is the version by "Doug Church".An impersonator.If I personally couldnt tell the difference between Elvis and an impersonator I would drop to my knees and beg for forgiveness.To make up for this travesty you have perpetrated on the king,I demand each of you watch Stay Away Joe twice in a row and then listen to the Harum Scarum soundtrack at a loud volume.

Riiiiight!!:lmfao:

I bet I could fill 5 albums of songs that I either don't like or just aren't very good. Believe me, I'm an Elvis fan and have been for almost twice your age in years.

By-the-way, I bet Elvis himself could name 10 albums worth of songs he recorded that he didn't like, do you apply the same logic to him?

[presley31]

:cursing: :angry: :cursing: :king:

Sorry I have to agree Elvis never sang "King of the Road" Doug Church did.

Jordans Elvis World has a section of rare Elvis songs so you can go there and check out the ones he has listed. Its pretty accurate and if you are in doubt you can go there for a quick look.

[Getlo]

Im sorry to burst the bubbles.Elvis Presley never recorded that song.What you have is the version by "Doug Church".

Okay, something just flashed in my mind at the very second I woke up this morning. I now know why I can hear a bad "Elvis" version of the song in my head. Last year, here in Australia, Toyota had a TV ad campaign for their new truck, a Hilux I think. It featured a fat guy Elvis fan driving down a highway who picks up a really hot chick. He had one of those Elvis dolls dangling from the rear-view mirror. And playing is King of The Road, done Elvis style. Quite a good ad, actually. So maybe it was Church's version used for this?

Uh-huh!

I'd do that. Joe is no punishment; that movie's fun!


and then listen to the Harum Scarum soundtrack at a loud volume.

Okay, that is punishment .. but not as bad as the film itself!! :lol:

yea, just so you know, I went on limewire again last night and just typed in "King of the road" and again it popped up with 1 Elvis version......it also had Roger Miller and others who sang it too.....so I don't understand why it lists it as Elvis? It does sound like him too. Regardless of you "nay-sayers" who think "how can you not know the difference"......so I'm more confused than ever. Getlo, download www.limewire.com and then do a search and see what you find........this is nuts. I want you to hear it yourself. :hmm:

I'm just so darn confused!

[Getlo]

No, you haven't elvis himselvis!

You are mistaken, and are possibly confused with Elvis' 1971 song A Thing Called Love, from the He Touched Me album.

Crazy Little Thing Called Love is a totally different song ... and, as I mentioned, it was first recorded by Queen - in 1980!!!

I do not "Hate" any of Elvis' songs but Quennie Wahine's Papaya is one that I never cared much for. I know many people do like it but I am not one of them. Dovey;)

People, people, people.....Elvis did not sing "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" (unless he really did fake his death) and he did not sing "King Of The Road". I downloaded that version and it ain't Elvis, not even close.

As mentioned before, Crazy Little Thing Called Love was written and recorded by Freddy Mercury (Queen) in 1980.

[goodelvisgirl]

well i hate the song he'll have to go and danny boy no matter who sings them the songs just grate on me but i know all the words funny that.i love elvis but every music legend picked some bad songs but it comes down to you're own personal preference quennie wahines papaya and the walls have ears you scratch my back songs like that just because they have no reall menaing just silly happy tunes but again own personal preference

AND ELVIS NEVER SANG KING OF THE ROAD IT WAS DOUG CHURCH AND IF YOU OG TO HIS WEB SITE YOU WILL SEE IT ON HIS CD JIMMY ELLIS AND DOUG CHURCH SOUND SO LIKE ELVIS SOMETIMES YOU CAN GET CONFUSED BUT ONLY FOR A SECOND

[ksimms2]

Thanks Jen for letting me know how to do that! I saved a bunch and will change them from time to time....I like yours better though!

[KPM]

No, they don't. No one sounds like Elvis!
I do not care for Elvis impersonators myself either, but Doug Church is so close at times to Elvis its a little scary. I have never bought any of his stuff but have heard it. I have listened to Elvis's voice for over 45 years and Church does sound like Elvis. The first time I heard him I thought it was an Elvis christmas song that had never been released. I was in a store and it was playing on a CD player in the back room-I stuck my head in the back room and asked a girl who was sorting product where she got the new Elvis cd-she said its not Elvis its Doug Church her mom got it for her because she thought it sounded like Elvis also. I had never been fooled like that ever before this.

[suspicious_mind]

I dont hate any of them. I dont think its possible for me to hate any tune that came from that beautiful voice of his.

[jatta-tcb]

I don't hate any songs.. but there are many I always skip.. I haven't learned to like. :)
(because there are many songs that I have learned to like.. even i didn't like them first :P )

Just For Old Times Sake
Reconsider Baby
There Goes My Everything
Three Corn Patches
Are You Sincere
(That's What You Get) For Loving Me

and several movies songs :D I don't remember by name..



I heard Old MacDonald first time yesterday.. i think it was funny song.:lmfao: I even liked it.. I think Elvis had lots of fun to make that song :lmfao::lmfao::lmfao:

eh.....no way. At least, not for me. I mean, Elvis was Elvis and no one will be like him. Doug can sound like him, but he will never dance or look like our guy.......that's what I think. :D

[Getlo]

Does anyone know if he dances the same way?

-- Wha --??? (choking on my own bile)

No one can move or sing quite like Elvis.

I just checked out Doug Church on YouTube.

Words truly fail me. (n):blush:(n)(n)(n)

After reading that Doug Church sounds just like Elvis or you cant tell the difference,I have made a descion.Im going to find the tallest building and jump off it.Forget the drug topic or the MM stuff.These comments are truly insulting to Elvis' memory.Nobody and I mean nobody sound like Elvis.I feel compelled to rush to Elvis' defense in this matter.Please dont disgrace the memory of somebody I have held in such high regard since childhood as sounding comparable to an ETA.I will discuss his drug habit or whatever else you want,but I would never compare him to an impersonator.I respect him way to much for that.I am apalled at the notion.I demand you all go play Elvis Is Back start to finish so you can regain your senses.Have you all gone mad?

I do not care for Elvis impersonators myself either, but Doug Church is so close at times to Elvis its a little scary. I have never bought any of his stuff but have heard it. I have listened to Elvis's voice for over 45 years and Church does sound like Elvis. The first time I heard him I thought it was an Elvis christmas song that had never been released. I was in a store and it was playing on a CD player in the back room-I stuck my head in the back room and asked a girl who was sorting product where she got the new Elvis cd-she said its not Elvis its Doug Church her mom got it for her because she thought it sounded like Elvis also. I had never been fooled like that ever before this.

Thank you, now I don't feel so bad for being "duped" on limewire since it was labeled Elvis......:flowers:

[Diane]

I've listened and watched Doug Church on Youtube and yes I think he does sound somewhat like Elvis, so does Ronnie McDowell but there is still something off that clues me in every time even if I don't see them. No one has the same inflection in their voice or the same timing. As for moving like Elvis, I've never seen anyone come even close.

"Wooden Heart"

Jak I did not say he sounds exactly like Elvis-but he sounded enough like him to fool me after hearing him sing a few songs. Naturally he does not sound exactly like Elvis and I do not think he has any moves or chrisma which Elvis had -but compared to most Elvis impersonaltors he is head and shoulders above them in vocal reproduction- but of course not above Elvis.
I have listened to Elvis 45 years and no other "wanna be ' has fooled me-Alan Meyers, Harra, Thompson etc... I could here in an instant it was not Elvis. That is my biggest consistent complaint about these guys-they sound nothing like Elvis-this guy is the best-but he is not Elvis.
I met a a guy through my brother who was an AR man for Curb records and he played me a song which he claimed was Elvis and I told him "Thats Ronnie McDowell"- it was he thought he could fool me.
I'm sorry if my being momentarily fooled has upset you so. It surprised me also-but I'm not gonna lie about it.

PS- please don't jump off a building!

I may have been just a touch dramatic in my post.Actually Church is better than lots of ETA's.He is actually a good friend of my wife and sister in law.I've seen him a few times myself.Personally I would have to hide the my shame if one of those guys fooled me.I would immediately drive to Graceland and throw myself on the ground begging for forgiveness.I think im actually serious about that.

Everyone gets fooled somewhere in life-the least of my worries is about mistaking one voice for another. ;) But I have to admit it surprised me when the lady said Its Doug Church.

waw i mentioned doug church and jimmy ellis and caused a war each to their own opinion i say GETLO no need to bash my opinon be nice now go easy but they do sound like elvis not exact but close doug makes a living at his elvis impersonation but does not move like elvis shawn klush talks like and even mimics elvis movements but again he isn't elvis he is amazing to watch and grahame patrick looks alot like him too in his younger days ANYWAY THATS SOMEWHAT OFF TOPIC SO I LEAVE IT THERE

[TLC67]

Song I hate: That stupid Yoga Is As Yoga Does....or whatever it's called. Ridiculous.
My 2cents on the topic above: I agree with Elvis when he said "I don't sound like nobody".

[Trudy]

of course i love elvis but some songs werent up to par with others he did.
i have never liked old shep, old mc donald and some of his movie songs.

[ksimms2]

I kind of think his movie tunes are rather catchy! I like it when he sings them and everyone is dancing, etc.....fun to watch......(am ducking now....)

Jimmy Ellis aka Orion - he was really good and sure sounded very much like Elvis....fooled alot of people for a while - fueling the rumors that Elvis was alive...

[Latte]

How bout kills me to listen too? .. Memories

[Debra]

"Old MacDonald", "Yoga ia As Yoga Does", "Dominic" and a few others songs I don't like,
but I really hate"Wooden Heart" - TERRIBLE song:'(

[JerryNodak]

There are any number of songs that I quite dislike (and not just from the movies). But I don't hate any. I might listen to any Elvis song on any given day (even ones I'm not crazy about). It depends on my my mood. Sometimes I even skip songs I love because I'm tired of them.

[rocknut]

im not really a lover of My Wish Came True supprisingly its from the rock n roll era

[MissyM]

Hunk A Burnin Love, I don't know why but it just bugs me.

[Julie]

I dont care much for wooden heart.

[Suzan]

Wooden Heart, Sandcastles in the sand (or something like that), Hunka Burning Love, Are you Sincere...the only one I hate is Wooden Heart, the other's I just skip past. lol

[ksimms2]

Hunk A Burnin Love, I don't know why but it just bugs me.

really? I love that song...lol.

[ksimms2]

When you guys say, "Hunk A Burning Love" do you mean "Burning Love"? Or is this another song?

I know only Burning Love :) and I love that song..

Yadee I think it's one and the same....I did a search on youtube and came up with only Burning Love....but he does sing, "hunka, hunka burning love" so maybe that is where they came up with the name Hunka Burning Love....but either way, I love that song too....

[Wendy56]

I love all songs.

me too

You know.....I agree with this.....for the most part. Some of the movie songs were just baaaaaad!

But I think the movie songs fit the movie......they sound ok while watching the movie. It's when you hear one of those silly songs all by itself......on the radio for instance, that they just make me clench my jaw and grind my teeth!! :lol:

And then sometimes it depends on my mood what I listen too. :)

[presley31]

l really don't like wooden heart

[malc07]

Dont like" Dominic"
But i find wooden heart quit a nice song...(sorry Jen):hug::hug:
could be because i like G I blues sooo much.(y)

[ms_epblvd]

Thanks everyone for all of your comments to this post..It's great:P

[MJ27]

I cannot stand "Padre" and "Take Good Care Of Her".(n)

[EnigmaticSun]

l really don't like wooden heart

That happens to be one of the songs I appreciate the most. This song was a hit when some angry guy with a mustache was really powerful here, but it's even older.

I also like "Padre" and "Take Good Care Of Her", these are way more meaningful than "Burning Love" or "Promised Land", for example - which means I don't hate those, but I just think these are not as meaningful and emotional.

Sometimes I get the impression people are resisting sensitivity. Do you dislike "Danny Boy"?

I know some people don't like "He Is My Everything" (gospel) or "Beach Boy Blues", but there's really no reason to look for a homo-erotic meaning. Elvis wasn't gay.

[Getlo]

I know some people don't like "He Is My Everything" (gospel) or "Beach Boy Blues", but there's really no reason to look for a homo-erotic meaning. Elvis wasn't gay.

No one was looking for homo-erotic meaning in these or any other songs!

This wasn't part of the thread.

Ridiculous! :angry:(y):angry:

[EnigmaticSun]

No pun intended, really. I did read some person doesn't like those songs and I can see why (it's America). But there's no use being ashamed of it, you're just looking for something that isn't there. Hysterical.

Anyway, I do like Elvis' rendition of children's songs. It's not that easy to get the most out of it, you have to "apply maximum sensitivity", so to say. It sounds better than an over-the-top rendition, e.g. I didn't like the studio version of "Rags To Riches" that much because it's.. a bit over-the-top.

[goodelvisgirl]

well i had to add suspicous minds it is a good song but it goes on too long so i just skip it
and the movie tunes can be ok like datin and lover doll but some can be just bad like the walls have ears and old mac donnald and feel so bad but i love more than i dont like

[ksimms2]

Ellis never fooled me, the supposed Duets between JLLewis and Elvis were such a rip off at the time to cash in on Elvis's death.

I never heard that duet...I've only heard Jimmy Ellis on youtube and he sounds really good. But his whole masked man facade, etc. and the fact that he sounds like Elvis did fuel the elvis is alive thing......probably because folks just really wanted to believe it so badly.

There was a whole album of "Duets" -Jerry Lee and a mystery voice.
The single was "Save the Last Dance for Me" and when it was played the DJs all asked the question-"Who is the voice singing with Jerry Lee Lewis?"
They hinted that the "Duets" were recorded at Sun records in the 50s.
Except for the "Million Dollar Quartet" recordings which were an impromptu jam-Elvis never recorded at Sun again. Jerry Lee Lewis came to Sun records after Elvis had left to RCA. But many did not know all this and they thought it was Elvis singing with Jerry Lee.

[EnigmaticSun]

In a lot of cases it seems that people actually dislike the most sensitive songs: "My Boy", "Love Me Tender", "Take Good Care Of Her", "Padre", "Wooden Heart"..

A lot of this has to do with social pressure. It's just so uncool to like "My Boy" in front of your colleagues/peers/friends nowadays.

[SeeSeeRider777]

I dont like 5 sleepy heads. Most of the movie music was junk. You had youre good ones but a lot of them were bad.

[Lisarose]

I don't like Old Shep, I hate Confidence.

I Like the Walls Have Ears! In fact I like most of the movie tunes, but not all of them. Like someone else on this thread had mentioned, during the course of the actual movie, the songs are quite enjoyable (except Confidence), outside of the movie - :'( (n)

[Unchained Melody]

I can honestly say theres not one song of Elvis' that I dislike. There are ones that I care for more than others but I like them all in some way..Hate is a strong word for sure.

[Burning_Love]

There are some like Tomorrow night and harbour lights, but i don't hate them, just a dislike of them, but i will listen to them.

[SeeSeeRider777]

Yoga is as Yoga does. I wanna punch the radio when I hear that.

[utmom2008]

There are many I dislike just because Elvis dodn't seem to put much effort in them:

Raised on Rock
For the Heart
Sylvia
Padre


For the record, I think Elvis ROCKS "Old McDonald".(y)
Interesting enough...I was at opening night August 6th, 1973 and Elvis sang "Raised On Rock". Apparently it was one of the few if only times he did it live, and everyone loved it. I think we should re-think this thread and say "what Elvis song do you hate, NOT counting some of the goofy movie songs"? :D:D

[utmom2008]

[utmom2008]

uh, yes he did, I have it on a cd....I'll have to find which one and let you know....it may be one I downloaded myself.....but he sure did.....
You are right Kelly. I was reading about it just the other day.........(y)

[utmom2008]

ksimms2, I'm prepared to bet my entire Elvis collection on it not being him singing this song! :D
This is entertaining...:D:D....UPS or Fedex? :D

[utmom2008]

Ok, to those who say Elvis sang it ...

Wanna bet an Elvis CD??? :lol::lol::lol:

I'm serious here!

Remember: I only bet if I know I'm right about something, and I have never lost a bet of this type! (y)
I did read something about it once. It was like one of those "throw-away" lines in concert where he sang like a line or two. So...I think he threw out a couple of lines, but no, it was not a recorded song. Maybe ya'll should call it a draw..;) ;)

[utmom2008]

[QUOTE=Getlo;146639]It probably is. Considering the Queen song was written in 1980, it's a safe bet Elvis never did it.



Elvis did sang A crazy little thing called Love...i've heard this song
NO...NO...NO Elvis did NOT sing "Crazy Little Thing Called Love". That song came out in the early 80's. Elvis IS talented, but not doing any recording from the grave!! LOL :D:D

[LovesElvis]

Yeah, I'm not crazy about It's Impossible, and I don't like Bridge Over Troubled Water. The second one has nothing to do with Elvis, I just don't like the song period.
Hi Presley31 & Marija! I know you guys from myelvisworld, I'm just under a different name. :)

[RS277]

The Queen song titled "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" was recorded by Doug Church and released on his "Kingtinued" 3 cd set.

[Getlo]

Try to keep up. Go back and check Enigmatic Sun's posts ... :doh:

It is most definitely not a draw.

Elvis never sang a single line from this song anywhere! Ever.

Like I said, I never bet on stuff like this unless I am 100% sure; that is why - still - I have never lost a bet.

Hound Dog (Please nobody kill me, I just don't care for the song)

Don't worry, I don't like that song either. It just doesn't do anything for me.

I'm not gonna list every song I don't like, but here are a few:

Good Luck Charm
Stuck on You
King Creole

[Dino78]

I'm not a person who can hate at all. So there are some songs I don't like. When you give me a chance to get away I would take only for not hearing those songs. But when such a possibility isn't given allright I listen to these songs.
My first choice of such songs is "Hey Jude". For me maybe the worst interpretation of this song. ANother ones "He's Your Uncle..." and "Old MacDonald...".

I also like Wooden heart....i can remember my dad´s mother,she was from Travemunde,germany.....she used to sing the german part alot to me:)

Besides....I cannot imagine a single song which did or would not sound great when sung by Elvis ;). So, no, there's no Elvis song I hate :D!

[AHM1977]

I just want to say that I'm happy for every song and one liners with Elvis that excist, and I really hope that Ernst Jørgensen & Co. will find more....

not counting goofy movie songs, I dislike Old Shep, This Is Our Dance, Last Farewell and other boring ballads - not too many though!!!

I have to confess I hate Unchained Melody and some other of his 70's ballads.:blush:

[Lisarose]

I always wondered if his german pronunciation was at all decent:D

Another one I don't really like, but I don't hit the skip button either.

[beckelvis]

the truth the word i hate seems to me to be a bit strong,but if i have to say that me the songs do not please at all any his movies it was not his style

I thought I was going to be the first one to mention Unchained Melody, Donut. You bet me to it!!
Used to love Rightous Bros. version. Why I dislike it now, is because whenever media wants to show Elvis in 'decline' it's always the Elvis in Concert clip where he plays at the piano. I think he sings it remarkably well considering he isn't well and he's sitting down, but it upsets me, knowing it's nearly the end for him.
Don't like it now sung by either of them.
