Elvis Presley Suspicion

Elvis Presley Suspicion
Written by Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman. Elvis recorded it March 19, 1962 at RCAs Nashville studios. Elviss version was not originally released as a single; it was released as a track on the Pot Luck LP. Terry Stafford heard Elviss version and recorded his single in 1964. RCA released Elviss version as a single when Terry Staffords was climbing the charts, but Elviss release did not chart, althought it was listed as Bubbling Under briefly at #103. It was the B-side to Kiss Me Quick. It is available on Pot Luck With Elvis, The 50 Greatest Love Songs, and From Nashville to Memphis-The Essential 60s Masters.




Ev'rytime you kiss me
I'm still not certain that you love me
Ev'ry time you hold me
I'm still not certain that you care
Though you keep on saying
you really, really, really love me
do you speak the same words
To someone else when I'm not there

Suspicion torments my heart
Suspicion keeps us apart
Suspicion why torture me

Ev'rytime you call me
and tell me we should meet tomorrow
I can't help but think that
you're meeting someone else tonight
Why should our romance just
keep on causing me such sorrow?
Why am I so doubtful
whenever you are out of sight?

Suspicion torments my heart
Suspicion keeps us apart
Suspicion why torture me

Darling, if you love me,
I beg you wait a little longer
Wait until I drive all
these foolish fears out of my mind
How I hope and pray that
our love will keep on growing stronger
Maybe I'm suspicious
'cause true love is so hard to find

Suspicion torments my heart
Suspicion keeps us apart
Suspicion why torture me

Terry Strafford version sounds good till you hear The King's ...sorry Terry no contest......nobody can compete with Elvis many have tried and all failed

[charlyW34]

The Jordanaires add their usual brilliance to this great Elvis performance. Very cool.

@hungryherbie  But Stafford's version was the hit, is the definitive version, and totally trounced Presley's recording when they went head-to-head! Presley's version is too slow and over-produced!

2012... still here with your voice thru the headphones....

@1DarkPunk My dad met Elvis' former commanding officer, when he was stationed in Germany in the 70's, and he said that Elvis was the best soldier that America ever had, he would do his duties without complaining, no matter what he was ordered to do. So there you go America, another reason to love this man.

the king of rock n roll he are the best

[1DarkPunk]

@StanBennet Hell yeah man and another cool fact is when he went in he told them he wanted to be treated as any other soldier would be not any different just because he was so famous...

@alphakid42 I've always loved Elvis, but I agree with you. I always wished to hear Elvis sing this song exactly the way Stafford did, just to compare the two. I'd also love to hear Elvis do Conway Twitty's "Lonely Blueboy" and "It's Only Make Believe".

[Dizguiseme]

Just like my Parents I've now inherit there love for this Amazing Performer!! Long Live the King!!
