    Saw Elvis in concert twice. I was 10 and 11 years old. Was on 2nd row both times. I remember it like it was yesterday. My mom made me go. She said she wanted me to be able to say id seen the king perform. Thank you so much Mom!!!

Through all his ailments, addictions, and depression, when it came to the music Elvis never missed a beat.

      Elvis did not write a single song. Not one of the 600 that were released under his name. He just couldn't do it. Yet his record label insisted he was given writing credit. He was a great performer with charisma who was brilliantly marketed. But not the greatest musical genius ever.

      The bass singer is the late great, J.D. Sumner- the world's lowest bass singer, at the end of the song, he hits a double low C, the lowest c on the piano, it's the second or third from the last key witch is an AO, he's actually hit below the AO, he's hit a mind boggling EO, I think that's four notes off the piano I think, just some information, didn't know if you knew👍✌️

    Had the 45 to this song. Only one i owned from Elvis. We were on our way back from a vacation in California. We made it to Idaho Falls on our way home to Calgary Alberta when we heard on the radio. Our family was stunned. I was just about to start high school that September. I remember quite vividly thinking " God, No". Here he had this hit climbing the charts and suddenly, he was gone. Truly tragic!

    At 1:58 you can hear Elvis start to hum ‘hold’ and at 2.00 you can hear him definitely start to sing the word ‘hold’ early but then he eventually comes in with ‘hold me again’.This is different from the other official recording I have heard where this has been cut out -really interesting. You can also hear the bit where he comes in early on the demo recordings.

    Surely the bass singer in this is J. D. Sumner. The Guinness Book of World records is supposed to have named him as hitting the lowest note on the planet. That's way on down.

    • @Sgt.Hartman
