im lost of words

I love this song elvis does it justice, but I think the best version is sung by Kenny Rogers which is not on you tube I only have it on tape:(

"if this isn't one of the most depressing songs, I don't know what is" Aw, how true...

Elvis could do country, rock, gospel, you name it! This is a good proof he could do country well.

Listen to these lyrics, if this isn't one of the most depressing songs, I don't know what is, although Mr Cash's live version I prefer. What a great voice Elvis had, something rarely mentioned outside of Elvis fans.

THE KING FORVER!

This one my favorite Country hits ever recorded.

Beautiful interpretation!

he is what america is all about.

Obviously someone forgot to tell him that he was suppose to be dead.
