I like this performance...Elvis is all sweaty and unshaven and earthy with his acoustic guitar.... but his message is clear!

Found In A Song
The words I hear on my piano
speak to me soft and strong
they talk about peace and laughter
They talk about dreams come and gone
and about love found in a song

I loved his first albam when it was out. Then I saw him in a small hall decades ago. I'm not crazy about him but I never stopped liking him and his music for all these years. This is the special song for me among his good songs. And this version brought me tears. .

in my opinion, a perfect circle's version is the best of all ...

I thoroughly agree with you.
Good of you to point it out.
There is one song though on Emotive which i enjoyed more than the original.
Zeppelin's When the Levee Breaks was done justice , i believe

Great !!!!!

I think APC might agree with you. I bought Emotive almost immediately after it was released, and had the impression that it was a somewhat rushed album--not because APC was after a fast buck, but because they wanted to make a stand against the Iraq war during the short window when the war drums were beating hardest--when it would mean the most. I respect them greatly for releasing the album when they did--when being anti-war took balls--even if the covers are mostly inferior to the originals.



This is so appropriate for right now.

Probably the best version I've heard so far. The version they did on A Colbert Christmas was pretty good.
