A song You would Choose
Scott,
I would choose Sweet Caroline, from TTWII, origional.Elvis really pours his heart into this song.
The way he dances to it is not bad either

when i did my listening assignment, i chose his version of 'bridgeOTW and there was one girl (yet again she is in to good music and likes another artists version of this song', i asked her how she liked it and she said 'i wanted to cry', others said it was very moving. the sound system had it up loud and it gave me chills up my spine! i dunno how others could not. his voice was so strong and full of meaning, it was just beautiful, and the songs climax and his strong voice, the feeling is indescribable

without a song, a man ain't got a friend,
without a song, the road would never bend,
without a song, so I'll keep singing the song.

Bridge over trouble water
I agree totally with 'Elvos'Originally Posted by Elvos
As a 'younger' fan myself being only 18, I think Promised Land will do really well on the charts, especially over here in the UK, It always gives me goosebumps and will definatley make some more younger fans, the same could also be said for
T-R-O-U-B-L-E and Burning Love, the teens now days like the faster rock music as compared to the slower ballad, except of course for me being a fan of Elvis.
Because Elvis sang a lot of styles, I guess one single song wouldn't do it. I would play the following songs:
01) Hound Dog (a classic example of 1950's Rock'n Roll)
02) All Shook Up (my favorite Elvis tune when I was a child)
03) Something Blue (one of the greatest ballads)
04) Long Black Limousine (one of my all time favorites)
05) Promised Land (to show that Elvis still could rock in the 1970's)
06) Trying To Get To You (live, 21.06.1977 - just listen to this!)
I played this song once to a friend who isn'y into elvis at all and he loved it. It's a funky song and one of my favourite 1970 live tracks along with i just can't help believing and let it be me.

its hard to change someones views...i have tried. youve lost that lovin feelin is a great choice. any song like that, where you can hear the intensity in the song and his voice.
Well, I had Elvis as a project in school, and at the presentation I showed my class "American Trilogy" from Aloha, and "Always On My Mind" from Elvis On Tour.
I succeded to brainwash them all
"It is no secret what God can do,
and I believe there will be peace in the valley some day,
so take my hand, precious lord, lead me and guide me."

I would chose some good old Rock and roll numbers and ballads
Trouble
Mean Woman Blues
Treat Me Nice
Too Much Monkey Business
Blue Eyes crying in the rain
Pieces Of My Live
and of course Polk Salad Annie
"Don't Forget me Baby,all you got to do is call"
well some good choices already given, mine would be:
love song--- gently
blues song--- all i needed was the rain
rock n roll----dont be cruel
ballad----the fairs moving on
rockin---memphis tennessee (original version)
film song----hot dog
and refering to the songs ELVOS, AND ELV1S said would make good hits if released i disagree mainly because they didnt chart well the first time they were released and also there are plenty more songs not released as singles that could be hits
Have so many...I would blast these songs.
Rockin- Raised on Rock/Tiger Man
Ballad- You've lost that Love & Feeling/If I Can Dream
Country- Honky Tonk Angel/A Hundred Years From Now
Gospel- Run On/So High
Young Elvis- Such a Night/Blue Moon
Film Song- Rubberneckin/Viva Las Vegas
