    Been listening to the King lately and was wondering what people's favorite Elvis song is or are.

    For me there are many, including the following:

    "I Want You, I Need You, I Love You"
    "Love Me"
    "Blue Suede Shoes"
    "Too Much"
    "All Shook Up"
    "Hard Headed Woman"
    "In the Ghetto"
    "Kentucky Rain"
    "Return to Sender"
    "Little Sister"
    "The Girl of my Best Friend" (pretty obscure song but I love it)

    Too many others but these are the ones that come to mind first.

    "Can't Help Falling In Love"

    best song ever, although UB40 did a fantastic cover of it

    I'm not a huge Elvis fan, but I'd probably say that "Jailhouse Rock" and "Viva Las Vegas" are my favorites.

    Edit: I forgot "Can't help falling in love".

    I love them all. These two are my favorites:

    Can't Help Falling in Love
    All Shook Up

    I was a huge Elvis fan as a kid. I sang Blue Suede Shoes at my sixth grade talent show.

    Come on Freak! You mean to tell me that there is not one Elvis Presley song you like??!! He is the King for crying out loud - there has to be at least one song of his that you like.

    If anyone wants to start an Elvis le C thread, go ahead.

    For Elvis Aron, I'll go with two (obvious) classics:

    "Love Me"
    "Mystery Train"

    Anything with Scotty Moore works, but those two always hit me way too hard.

    Check out the original, by the great Tony Joe White.

    My favorite Elvis song is Little Sister.
