    What song do you hate?

    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

    So what is yours???

    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?

    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.

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

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

    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

    He's your Uncle not your Dad. Man, I cant stand that song.
    "When I was a child, ladies and gentlemen, I was a dreamer. I read comic books, and I was a hero in the movie. So every dream that I ever dreamed has come true a hundred times. I learned very early in life that without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain't got a friend; without a song, the road would never bend; without a song. So I keep singing a song." - Elvis Presley

    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".

    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".
    I wholeheartedly agree ...

    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

    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

    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.

    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.
