I have several. Since I love bears, when I was a little girl I loved the song Teddy Bear. I also love the song Loving You, That was our wedding song. I like many of them. Which do you like?

I love all his songs. He was one of the few people that could sing about anything and make it sound good. If I have to choose one I guess Flaming Star. There is so many and I really do enjoy them.

I like Elvis' version better of any song.If I would hear a song by someone else and I say that's not right.And my mom would say that that is the origional song and I would respond by telling her that I didn't care only Elvis' way was right,lol.

I grew up listening to Elvis with my grandmother. I just thought he was the greatest thing ever when I was a kid. A few of my favorites are "Are You Lonesome Tonight", "Can't Help Falling In Love", and "Hound Dog".

I'm not an Elvis fan. I think I rather prefered some of his later stuff to his earlier "rock-a-billy" music tho. Can't say what the names are, well, except they aren't "In the Getto."

elvis presley - I like his songs
My favourite one is burning love. Lord Almighty, I feel my temperature rising Higher higher It's burning through to my soul Girl, girl, girl You gonna set me on fire My brain is flaming I don't know which way to go Your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of a choir You light my morning sky With burning love Ooh, ooh, ooh, I feel my temperature rising Help me, I'm flaming I must be a hundred and nine Burning, burning, burning And nothing can cool me I just might turn into smoke But I feel fine Cause your kisses lift me higher Like a sweet song of a choir And you light my morning sky With burning love It's coming closer The flames are reaching my body Please won't you help me I feel like I'm slipping away It's hard to breath And my chest is a-heaving Lord Almighty, I'm burning a hole where I lay Cause your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of a choir You light my morning sky With burning love With burning love Ah, ah, burning love I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Source:http://www.lyricsdomain.com/5/elvis_presley/burning_love.html

He has so many, but, In the Ghetto, Suspicious Minds, Don't Cry Daddy, Kentucky Rain, and Burning Love are probably my 5 favorites. It's a shame he's not around anymore, there could have been so many more.

Mmmm.. not sure, I like most all.. one of my favourites that I used to like singing with the ShowGroup where I was the lead singer was... "The American Trilogy" We used to do Country & Western shows with all the audience dressed in Cowboy gear and always ended the shows with this Elvis song!

I liked Elvis singing American Trilogy. Although I am not an American that sounded very moving. As a kid I used to love nearly all his songs. My parents had a vinyl record called Love Me Tender.
