Calling all Elvis Fans - vote for your favourite song

It’s Now or Never reminds me of my mum who used to sing it every morning as she was getting up and going for a bath!😄

I love anything sung by Elvis but my favourite is Such a Night.

They played You were always on My Mind at my Mum’s funeral because she loved that song. It’s a bit sad, listening to to the words.

The vote is in and the songs will be playing today on Radio 2, plus there is a list shown in the link below of the songs that were voted for.

Peace in the valley & burning love

I just can’t help believing, in the ghetto and suspicious minds. Sorry hard to pick just one! The first Christmas present my late husband bought me was an Elvis album and despite selling a lot of my old ones, I can’t part with that one. It’s 30 years next Friday since he died age 39, leaving me and two very young children. I still miss him.

Don’t Be Cruel is my favourite. Great song to jive to.

I've Lost You - so beautiful and sad.
Always On My Mind
Such A Night.

The Wonder of You is my favourite
My husband's was Always on My Mind

Are you lonesome tonight makes me laugh. Not sure his heart was in it.
Always on my mind (& Old Shep just because old dogs deserve an Elvis song))

Thanks Paddyann - Marti has done Elvis proud 👌

G I Blues
A mess of the blues
Jailhouse Rock
To name but a few

Fab singer and so handsome.

CrazyH have you heard this version?

It’s Now or Never

The Girl of My Best Friend. 🎶

Are you lonesome tonight. Beautiful song.
I adored Elvis and collected man of his LP's, when I went abroad my sister either sold them or gave them away.

Any or all of the above, but Always on my Mind, is my favourite.

I like his early records, Don’t Be Cruel and Blue Moon are particular favourites but my first choice is Amazing Grace which was played at the funeral of my dear friend Jean four years ago, we met at the age if 10, she was there when I met my husband and she was my bridesmaid. Whenever I hear Elvis I think of her, she was a huge fan.

Squiffy

“In the Ghetto” The words are heartbreaking, so probably not the best choice for a dance or party! 🙄😂

I read/heard somewhere that it was Elvis’s favourite, too, but I don’t know if it was ever verified.

My favourite, first one I looked for.

Love me Tender

Anything that's part of you
After loving you
The girl of my best friend
Always on my mind
Blue Christmas
and all the others in between

I can`t pick one. I love lots of them. I am quite keen on An American Trilogy as performed at the Alohah Hawaii concert, and we`ve chosen his version of A Bridge Over Troubled Water as one of the pieces of music at Lynne`s funeral.

Not an Elvis fan , but I do like " Love Me Tender ".

Polk Salad Annie 🥰

Absolutely!
