It Takes A While

[geordie]

Are you like me ,sometimes it takes months,even years for me to fully appreciate some elvis songs.Heres 2 examples.Just Pretend I never gave this song much attention,until i saw him sing it on the lost performances,now its one of my favs.Stranger in my own home town,im to say i used to skip over this song but somehow it just clicked ,again,now its one of my top elvis songs.Anybody else experienced this

[ElvisAlive]

It happend to me a lot of times with a lot of songs. songs like:
My Boy
I'll Remember You
Guitar Man
Let It Be Me
Don't Cry Daddy
And more...

I had this same dilemna with the entire TTWII album. When I was much younger, Elvis' ballads did not interest me as much, and the album seemed a little slow to me. Now that I'm an adult, I can appreciate the album for the masterpiece it is - especially the ballads!

Sometimes I play songs over and over.
But at a moment I skip them over, It's just what for mood I am in I think...

It has happened to me too i have to admit. Not being at all impressed with I'm Leavin' Always missed that out on whatever i played that it was on...but now i can't get enough of it

Same as the Raised On Rock album. I had this for many years before i appreciated the material that was on it - like has already been said...alot does depend on mood and maybe age also has a bearing.

Funny though....i never seem to get the reverse effect. I can't recall ever going off an Elvis song

there arn't many elvis songs i actually skip through when i play an album. the only one i can think of is blue moon. although this just isn't a favorite song of mine to begin with.

just thought of another 2 songs.

love coming down,from the jungle room sessions what a wonderfull,passionate,performance.

hurt,sorry to say i must be one of the few who didnt go overboard on this song ( live )in the jungle room sessions, full marks again, elvis in the studio hitting those high notes BY HIMSELF wonderfull
