Elvis Presley – Love Me Tender
An evening pause: Performed on televsion, 1956.
Hat tip Edward Thelen, who added, “per LocalFluff’s request.”
Cam – Can’t Help Falling In Love
An evening pause: I’ve posted the original version by Elvis Presley from the movie Blue Hawaii (1961) back in 2013, but this live version,live at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on January 8, 2016, is definitely worth seeing. She dedicated the song to her fiancé, Adam Weaver, and during the performance it is obvious that she is singing directly to him in the audience.
I also dare you to watch it without singing along.
Hat tip Edward Thelen from reminding me that this song needs a revisit.
Elvis Presley – Can’t Help Falling In Love
An evening pause: His live performances of this song are wonderful, but I still prefer the original movie version from Blue Hawaii (1961) for its simplicity. The film work might be uninspiring, but the clarity of the song easily makes up for this.
