Elvis, 1956
Written by Wiley Walker and Gene Sullivan, 1940
A toe-tapping, catchy song of lost love and hope ("When my blue moon turns to gold again / You’ll be back within my arms to stay"), showing the King's early mastery of blending country, gospel, and rockabilly into something unmistakably his own. Elvis electrifies the song with his smooth, yearning vocals and a light, swinging rhythm, not quite honky-tonk nor full-blown rock swagger, but definitely devlivered with confidence and talent.
