Reply #4: "Rock and Roll Heaven" because [View All]

(apart from it being a cool song and a nice image...that is, unless you've read the Stephen King short story) I way prefer Elvis' 1970s live versions of "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" (much more grunt and soul) and also the rough emotional feeling that he brought to "Unchained Melody" when he began doing it live (while playing piano with no other backing) during the last eight months of his life.

They did do a nice "Unchained Melody," though, far smoother and more pop than Elvis' soul-torturing turn and probably the definitive version. It's appearance in Ghost sure didn't hurt.

But I just can't handle "You're My Inspiration" or whetver it's called. I mean, I like their voices to some extent, but it's just so overproduced that I can't handle it. It tires me out. Did Phil Spector get near that track?

Sad news today.
