That song that grabbed you and wouldn't let go

[cowboyec]

still gives me chills.

still gives me chills.

Between Nat King Cole and Johnny Mathis, I'm not sure who has the silkier voice. It's very soothing.

doesnt matter where i am.
this song always demands my attention.
it deserves its place in eternity.

i like nat.
just something about that voice.
and a great piano player also.

 

[cowboyec]

this one always stops me cold.
1969.
american studios...memphis tn.
featured on his 2nd lp from these sessions...back in memphis.
the vocals laid down are just haunting.

At the lowest point in my life this song came on the radio. I love it, but it still hurts to hear it.

[Creeper]

Why would you want to shake it?



It's a most excellent tune

I agree it is a great song but I have other things I need to think about. Like sleeping and breathing. I mean this song has been in my brain constantly!

One of those songs I can't help but sing along with.

1967.
guitar man sessions.
so many times...it was Elvis at the piano that was just magic.
he didnt know he was being recorded on take 1...so they coaxed him for a 2nd take.

 

[Creeper]

I don't think it's that easy:

I didn't say it was easy. Both great singers with similar qualities. But when Christmas comes, I reach for Nat King Cole's Christmas Song and I have visions of sugar plums dancing in my head.

 

[cowboyec]

'69...american studios.
one of the great tracks from his epic from Elvis in memphis album.
i drink from this well...often.
one of his best vocal performances.
hauntingly beautiful song.

 

[cowboyec]

another song that thunders thru eternity.

I'm not even a Skynyrd fan, but that's a great song.

i told one of our ministers at church that they should make a promo video for our mens ministry using this song.
he agreed but it never happened...they chose flyers instead...didnt work.
