To me "Rock A Hula Baby" will always be my favourite, just love the energy of this performance and Elvis did look amazing in that film.

There are many........but I'll say C'mon Everybody,Viva Las Vegas,Jailhouse Rock and Bossa Nova Baby. I really love the C'mon Everybody scene.......the foot and leg movements from Elvis was awesome.

As incredibly awesome as each of these numbers are, "Jailhouse Rock" is the ORIGINAL music video!!!!! Such energy and power!!!!!!!!!!

I voted for "Return to sender" although it was not as glamorous as some of his other numbers but I adore this one because it was great in its simplicity. Elvis looked amazing in his black suit, the song is one of my favorites and I enjoyed seeing him moving as he only knew how to move...

I really like Jailhouse Rock, but my favorite is other (Mean Woman Blues).

07-14-2008, 11:52 AM

No doubt for this poll....JAILHOUSE ROCK for me too.

I like also RETURN TO SENDER and C'MON EVERYBODY but that song and

dance performance will be always the NUMBER 1 for me. (y) :clap:

I picked Trouble...I just love hearing Elvis sing this song....."cause I'm evil...so don't you mess around with me"...

From way outta left field: THEY REMIND ME TOO MUCH OF YOU! Beautiful song, and, cut it out of the movie, it could still stand on its own as a music video without needing the story around it.

You got that right! (y) His dancing is just great! You can really tell when he's enjoying himself with the music! Did you notice that at about 1:03 he smiles at someone behind him? He kinda says "Ehhh?" like he's really proud of his dance steps. Probably some of the MM guys on set with him.

I'm with you Matt, apart from my first pick Jailhouse Rock the next is Return To Sender.

It was on the very first CD of Elvis' i got from my mother when I first became a fan, Elvis the top ten hits or something to that sort.:hmm:(y)

I picked other even though I like most of those listed. But the one that always does it for me is the "Drums of The Islands" scene from "Paradise Hawaiin Style". I really get a kick out of seeing him perform with all the diiferent people from the Pacific Nations. He really looks like he's enjoyng it and having a great time. I get a feeling of pride when he joins the Maoris for their Poi dance.
And the music....it really stirs the blood.

"Change Of Habit" :wiggle:

But, If I had to choose from the songs listed above, I'd choose "Return To Sender" (y)

Fantastic bass line in Change of Habit! :)

I guess Jailhouse Rock is the iconic one so it's hard to beat but I voted for Trouble. Great song and a great scene in KC.

Where was Wheels On My Heels from Roustabout?? :D

Since we are back for round two with this thread, lol, I'll add another one (of many).

"Slicin' Sand" as this song brings back wonderful childhood memories. I love watching Elvis having fun, most of all.
