When the King
wasn't rocking
people's socks off,
he was
melting more hearts
than any other singer
in pop history
. What a great idea
this is:
50 of his
all-time best
love songs
on 2 CDs:
Can't Help Falling in Love;
Love Me Tender;
Are You Lonesome Tonight?;
Good Luck Charm;
She's Not You;
Surrender;
It's Only Love;
Let It Be Me;
Love Letters;
As Long As I Have You;
Don't;
Love Me;
Always on My Mind;
It's Now or Never;
True Love,
and more!
It's a shame that only
one side of Elvis'
multifaceted talent
is remembered
47 years
on from his death
but there is so much more
to the millennium's
greatest performer
than garish jumpsuits
and shaky legs.
The 50 Greatest Love Songs
reminds us
what a great singer
Presley was;
coming from the heart
with more feeling
and passion than most
could ever imagine,
all 50 of these songs
are classics
of the last four decades.
The double disc
set includes
all the up-tempo standards
like the incredible
"Suspicious Minds",
"I just can't help believin'"
and
"Always On My Mind"
plus the
Dusty Springfield
signature tune
"You Don't Have to Say You Love Me".
Also included are some
of his older works
from before
and during
the cinema years
like
"Good Luck Charm",
"Love Me Tender"
and
"Old Shep".
So no blue shoes,
no sequined jumpsuits,
just the king
singing about life,
love
and heartache
