Wow. Elvis was SO famous for his looks and rock'n'roll. But he was such a beautiful and talented singer/musician. But I also admit I can see how the girls just swoooooned for him.
What a voice and what an atmosphere he creates with this beautiful track. It is solid it is robust and perfect. I can only ever associated this track with Elvis when he was in an open top ..think Cadillac - Elderado Convertible? going slowly down the silent eerie semi lit streets of Vegas against a back drop of the Vegas thorough fare esconsed and engulfed in the ambience of the hot Vegas desert air. Simply superb.

@tustao No, real artists are a threat, because they give people a voice. Don't you know anything?
It's sad how true that actually is. Listen to radio today, and you tell me what the message being sent is. "Have sex, be a slut, be a whore, drink, do drugs, brag, pretend you're something you're not."
Nice...I think a little too much "reverb" on this great song...I think Elvis should have sung it and recorded in the bathroom... the way it's sung by our own little "Elvis" voice.--ha ha
hey everybody. im new to this whole singing thing so if you could check out my page with my song on it and let me know what u think...that would be great"
@Jackiej61too nice one jackie .i loved him singing it on the f/sinatra show when he left the army ,no doubt tomorrow it will be a change of mind for me mybe /big love /lets forget about the stars /almost /mary in the morning/the grass wont pay no mind / the list goes on. anyway tcb always to you
@Jackiej61too Fame and Fortune is really your favourite Elvis tune. I watch all your videos, which are all wonderfully done, and i would have figured you for a fan of the earlier sun rcordings rather than the RCA stuff! you cant compare fame and fortune to Lawdy Miss Clawdy, ThatsAlright Mama, Blue Moon of Kentucky, I got a Woman, Anyway you want me, Long Tall Sally, Im Counting on You, I love You Because, Mystery Train, Trying To Get To You, Or my Personal fav, Love Me!! Thats the Elvis I luv!!
wow i was playing fallout new vegas nd this song got stuck in my head.....i had no idea this was by elvis presley.....no wonder why they always play this song at the kings
Just think; some people said Elvis couldnt even sing when he went for his dreams! Ha - now is the King of Rock! Goes to show that we can succeed if we desire too. Dont let those 'Neggy Nancies' stop ya - go for it!
@jenna20bunny Classic youtube troll. You get one thing that isn't true in the comment and swear, swear about it. You know that comment sucks, and is redundant, stupid, repeated? But you don't want to give up on how making other people feel "Bad" Makes you feel "Good".
Such a disrespect to Elvis with the Lady Gaga song aside this video. She will never achieve the success of Elvis and will not stand the test of time like him. Long live rock and roll...
ARGH I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED WHEN THE BLUE MOON SONG IN FALLOUT NEW VEGAS WASN`T THE ELVIS VERSION....NOT ONE SINGLE ELVIS SONG IN THE GAME....WHAT A WASTE =(
@premier905 I have been wondering about that myself. I like to think it was him but who knows. Maybe somebody could analyze the song with some voice recognition program and answer the question. This is one of the best songs he ever did.
ELVIS is the only artist in the world! that i can keep listening to without getting bored with his songs, he just had it all, and there's no other singer i know who does that for me these days. To me he will always be the King, and he was a great to the world.
Elvis has made me completely deaf to every other singer's voice out there. Thank you for bringing the greatest sound to my ears, Elvis! Manlove says Love to the Man.
Elvis sings as high as any man should sing without sounding like a girl. People need to realize it's NOT about who can hit the highest notes, but who can do the MOST with their voice.
Elvis, by far, had/has the most versatile voice in the recording industry.
@Korn1holio Yeah- he'd record a vocal, they had 2 Ampex reel to reels, one in the studio for the effect, and one in the control room to get the sessions down. Should be able to find detailed info online, or the Sun Studios tour.
