Elvis Presley Paralyzed
Written by Otis Blackwell for Elvis. It was recorded on September 2, 1956 at Radio Recorders. Take #12 was used by RCA. On the strength of its being on the Elvis EP, it had a 7-week stay on the Top 100 chart, peaking at #59. It reached #8 on the charts in England. It is available on Elvis, Elvis: The Other Sides-Worldwide Gold Award Hits, Vol. 2, Elvis 56, and The King of Rock n Roll: The Complete 50s Masters.

When you looked into my eyes
I stood there like I was hyp-notised
You sent a feeling to my spine
A feeling warm and smooth and fine
But all I could do was stand there paralyzed
When we kissed, ooh what a thrill
You took my hand and, ooh baby, what a chill
I felt like grabbin' you real tight
Squeeze and squeeze with all my might
But all I could do were stand there paralyzed

Oh yeah lucky me, I'm singing ev'ry day, oooo
Ever since that day you came my way, oooo
You made my life for me just one big happy game
I'm gay ev'ry morning
At night I'm still the same
Well, Do you remember that wonderful time
When You held my hand and swore that you'd be mine
In front of the preacher you said
"I do" I couldn't say a word for thinking of you
All I could do was stand there paralyzed

Oh yeah lucky me, I'm singing ev'ry day, oooo
Ever since that day you came my way, oooo
You made my life for me just one big happy game
I'm gay ev'ry morning
At night I'm still the same
Honeychild, Do you remember that wonderful time
When You held my hand and swore that you'd be mine
In front of the preacher you said
"I do" I couldn't say a word for thinking of you
All I could do was stand there paralyzed
All I could do was stand there paralyzed

    It seems that you have your information wrong re. 'Violet'. The running time is not 30 seconds but 1.30 seconds.

    I would say that compared to 'Paralysed', 'Violet' was virtually unknown to the mass music market. I still say that 'Paralysed' was the shortest of the most popular and well known songs from Elvis.

    Shorter ones may be in existence but not in the 'popular' or 'major hits' category that I was referring to.

  • @yunorisson The Elvis song Violet is only about 30s long,there are others.

  • God bless Otis Blackwell.....What a great song!

  • @yunorisson What about  Santa lucia ???

  • Apologies,

    The shortest song recorded by Elvis is 'Let's Have A Party' that lasted a mere 1 min and 27 seconds.

  • There is a song Rlvis sings in the movie--The Trouble with Girls -the song is ALMOST--- it is 1:53---a very pretty song..

  • I love this song..

  • I may be wrong, but I think this may be the shortest song that Elvis recorded?
