Cool list. I wonder if her list changes like mine, it depends on the mood I'm in and the list just changes.

Man its hard to do just 12 songs. Think of what list people would have come up with for the I am A Elvis Fan.

My 12 songs.

1. Bridge Over Trouble Water (Live versions)
2. Burning Love
3. How Great Thou Art (Live versions)
4. American Trilogy (Aloha Show)
5. Wearing That Loved on Look
6. Trouble (68 special)
7. I've Lost You
8. Suspicious Minds (Live)
9. It's Over (Aloha Show)
10. Polk Salad Annie (Live Version)
11. Love Me
12. Loving Arms

Bonus: I wanted to add Rubberneckin from the album All Shook Up.

Three Corn, I wouldn't be mad at your list at all. It is very hard to do JUST 12 songs. I love the version of Rags to Riches you listed, even though he missed some of the lyrics, it was an amazing version without being a professional recording. Elvis did not need today's technology to sound brilliant.

Just Pretend is an amazing performance especially the Lost Performances version.
The first time I heard that song-I had to play it over and over......goose bumps...my wife also loves that song.

I've heard Lisa say that she loves Just Pretend in an interview a few years ago so it's one song that seems to be a main stay

That's a pretty sweet list you both have (King of The Whole World & Three Corn Patches). Just Pretend is just too amazing for words.

This particular song took a long time to grow on me, but I have a whole new appreciation for it.

I'm Leavin is quite a hard song to sing, one of his underrated gems, same as It's Only Love i think is terribly underrated

I agree with you Chris .
For me, this list every day would look different.
It all depends on my mood and what you need. I give up. I do not have a list of 12 songs.
Tranquility Elvis ballads :wub:and rock & roll to clean up the house.:D
