I voted for "I'm So Lonesome..." (I couldn't get enough of this song)
But my mind tells me that it is probably "I'll Remember You"

he did I'll Remember You several times, even (from memory) in May 1976.
I'm So Lonesome was a once-only performance

I think Rarest Song Is Welcome To My World, he did it Twice and Part it In 1975

but I vote for I'm So Lonesom I could Cry, He Did It four or five Times , Twice In Hawaii and 2 or 3 Times In LasVegas Early 1973.

I would say You're The Reason I'm Living is more rare then the choices offered.

Heart of Rome is one of those under appreciated gems. Elvis voice is amazing and he seems commited to the performance. The lyrics really connect with me. Too bad it is so unknown among the general public an many Elvis fans.

I would say

1. I'm so lonesome I could cry
2. Its different now
3. The twelfth of never
4. You're the reason I'm living
5. Turn around look at me (I know its not a complete song but to me its rare)
6. They Remind Me too Much of You
7. Puppet on a String
8. Mama Liked the Roses
9. Let's Forget about the Stars
10. Have I Told You Lately that I Love You

Sorry, Rick, but no. Lonesome was done four times in total. The two Alohas, plus Vegas January 26, 1973 (OS) and February 15, 1973 (DS).

This poll question is a bit odd. Four live tracks plus a studio cut that was never done live. And three of them were done quite a bit. So, what does the questioner mean by "rare"?

Softly As I Leave You was done 63 times live
What Now My Love, 118
Heart Of Rome, never live, but we have 3 studio takes
I'll Remember You, 113
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry, 4

I VOTE FOR HEART OF ROME.
I FIRST DISCOVERED THIS SONG ON THE FTD RELEASE "NASHVILLE MARATHON". IT IS A GREAT SONG WITH A BEAUTIFUL VOCAL BY ELVIS. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN GOOD TO HEAR ELVIS SING IT LIVE.BUT ELVIS DID A LOT OF GREAT BALLADS IN 1970. ANOTHER GEM.

I voted for Softly As I leave You

It is a great song with a message.
He has not done it to much on stage.

I like this snippet of "Turn Around Look at Me" a little over a minute-but its pretty rare and more than one line:
