@toysrusbaby Yes, because the excessive use of foul language shows how extremely educated you are. I don't link you an exact copy because this is unimportant, and I don't care about Elvis Presly enough to actually continue this argument, especially not with a foul mouthed troll like yourself. So I suggest you stop being a retard and answer the question you have yet to answer "Finger in ma butt, wat do?" You worthless wad of internet semen.
@toysrusbaby Copy right didn't exist until the 1970's, and you wanna see the originals? Google em you lazy ass. Don't go around calling names if you don't even research what your claims are.
Roy Brown owned the rights to his composition til the 60,s when the irs bankrupted him for tax evasion his biggest source of income was from royalties from Elvis,s recording
@lategreatplanetearth He played it without permission. It's not the same as singing God bless america. It's like if Blink 182 went and made a single that was "Apologize" A remake. If they did that without permission a big ol' copyright would slap them in the face. If copyright would have been around when Elvis was around, he'd be a lot less popular.
Elvis is full artist. Good actor, good singer, was very simpatic with his fans, so, I think that You were, was and will be the one!!!! doesn't matter what some peoples talk about. 32 year after Elvis death,and continues being the best!!!
Elvis recorded this song in 54 in a completely new style called Rockabilly. The song almost ten years old by that time,and also had been covered by Wyonie Harris in 1948. Presley added a simpler, more energetic "We're gonna rock, rock, rock!" Described as "a flat-out rocker" country radio programmers blanched, and older audiences somewhat mystified.
I think that every Elvis fan wishes that he`d been there.Those early shows have such an energy.I have about 40 live recordings from that period, and I absolutely adore them!
@toysrusbaby Why do you continue to embarass yourself? Want a band aid for your fail bruise? (::[=]::)

I wonder why Elvis did not write songs. He made new versions of existing songs so easyly! He was so inventive in his own way.

@MAGICO240 Because he is the king of cover versions. It´s easier to be a cover singer.

Lets see, when other artists sing this song they aren't stealing. Elvis sings and hits it, he steals it? I don't want to hear from any other artist.
