I downloaded a song a while back that is supposedly recorded live on stage in 1975 by Elvis. It's called "If" and it's a cover of a Bread song. Just wondering if this is really elvis singing it or if it's just a impersonation of him? Thanks:notworthy

Elvis never sang the song live that I'm aware of.

Hope you didn't pay money for it, because it is definitely not Elvis. He never sang the song, live or otherwise.

However, depending on the actual date of the tape, it could very well be backing group Voice.

Hi,
I've also downloaded the song "IF" supposedly sang by Elvis, but It was NOT! You don't have to even closely. There's an "over-do" of the vibrato (that's what they call it right?) even the other notes. NO, NO, It's NOT Elvis.

Voice did sing a couple Bread songs during their stint with Elvis "Aubrey" is the one I have heard.
