  • Had to sing this and love me tender, difficult song to sing!

  • This is a song we had to learn in school. Takes be back....way back! Thank you Tom Roush.

  • Great sad love tune. Frances Farmer sang it in COME AND GET IT decades before Elvis sang it as LOVE ME TENDER.

  • Really nice. The most affecting version of this song I've heard on Y/T.

  • I didn't know Love Me Tender is based off this! Wow! Amazing discovery! :O

  • The song dates back to 1861, almost a full century before The King sang it.

  • Love the harmony you are able to do on your songs.

  • Hi! I'm making high degree musical studies at ESMUC, Barcelona, Spain. I'm doing a work about the authory of Aura Lee, not necessary against Elvis, but trying to refresh to the audience that this tune has another origin different from the movie Love me Tender (ugh!) and trying to break the effect of the marketing and "unsportive" attitude of the director and Elvis, whom get the rights like if they were the authors. I don't like brain washing...If someone can help me anyway i'll thank u a lot!

  • One of the most beautiful songs ever. love your version of lorena to .

  • Very nice!

    Elvis sings this song just a littel with these words in the movie

    "The trouble with Girls"

  • @Clintreno Sorry! Yes he sing this song with the name of

    "Violet" mais not the same words...XD

  • Tom, it happened also to "Plaisir d'amour" . It is funny because this song , to me one of the best interpretaton is Nana Mouskuri's , is generally attributed to Martini, but it looks like he was just one of the composers/musicians that made it popular....

  • Good job Tom, very well done. The best version ever.
