Thank you John for your beautiful gift to

share with your friends..This is a very lovely

dedication for your friend Maureen..I agree why can't

everyday be like Christmas..Your rendition is sounding

a little like Elvis,especially when you hit the low notes..

Happy Holidays to you and your loved ......Polly

[Keoniwa929]

@luvperu1 ..Thank you Polly, I agree, I do better on the low notes..This is my favorite Christmas song by Elvis.

I never heard another artist sing it. Probably because no one can do it as well as he.

Wonderful rendition you sang here John and a Big Thumbs Up My Friend ! This is a fantastic song that was written by Red West and recorded by Elvis. Great Job Johnny and Happy Holidays !

TCB DANNY

[Keoniwa929]

@dmljm2 .. Thank you very much Danny. I knew Red West wrote this one but I recently heard he wrote others also, which I didn't know. This is my Favorite Elvis Christmas song....

TCB

John

[dmljm2]

@Keoniwa929 In a interview with Red West he said he wrote 14 songs for Elvis and Red had to Actually Sing 'If Everyday Was Like Christmas" in the exact same key as Elvis would sing it in before Elvis recorded this song. Red is a Very Talented Man in Many Ways. Thanks John

TCB DANNY

[Keoniwa929]

@dmljm2 ..Thanks Danny. I never heard Red sing, but this one is not easy for me to sing..

[gloyahoo]

John, Excellent sing and your graphics were great. This is one of my favorite songs by Elvis because the words are so true, why can't every day be like Christmas. Thank you for sharing your great talent. 5***** Merry Christmas - God Bless You

and yours - Gloria

[Keoniwa929]

@gloyahoo .. Thank you very much Gloria. It is my favorite Elvis Christmas song, perhaps because the words, "Why can't everyday be like Christmas", are my own sentiments. That should have been the song's title.

Merry Christmas

John

[ElvisSacramento]

Hi John, this is such an absolutely beautiful song and it should definitely be way better known than it actually is. As expected, your cover of it was absolutely marvelous. Thumbs up all the way. You're so enormously talented. It's one of eleven Elvis songs that was written by Elvis' longtime friend and bodyguard Red West. Merry Christmas!

[Keoniwa929]

@ElvisSacramento .. Thank you very much Erik. I did know this was written by Red, but didn,t know he wrote others for Elvis. I always thought he nailed it with the line, "Why can't everyday be like Christmas", I also thought that every day should be like Thanksgiving. We should be thankful everyday & caring to our loved ones all the time. Not just certain days. And I am thankful for you.

Merry Christmas

John

[kotilo375]
