Love Me by Elvis Presley
Well, I couldn’t mention it yesterday without singing it soon, so here it is. This song was on the Heartbreak Hotel soundtrack — yes, an ’80s movie about kidnapping Elvis and fixing him up with your mom — and looking back at the credits, it wasn’t even Elvis singing it on the cassette I wore out?
OK, actor who played Elvis, or probably singer who did the vocals for the actor, look, I’m not sure if the version I remember is yours or Elvis Presley’s, but I loved that song and never heard it anywhere else.
I know my guitar teacher wrote the chords out for me on this one in F, because I have it in my old Mel Bay spiral manuscript book somewhere between Stairway to Heaven and Hotel California.
But that F barre chord is a jerk, so I learned it in E.
This took a few takes, mostly because the more I ham up the performance, the harder time I have getting the parts in the right order. Added a couple backup singers who don’t know harmonies on the final chorus because otherwise I just mumble-hum it anyway. But didn’t bother mixing it properly.
Oh, also, different camera angle today.
