Elvis was born on January 8, 1935, and here I have included, in honor of his heavenly birthday, one of my favorite songs from 1968, “Memories.” The song was written by Billy Strange and Mac Davis for him to sing on “Elvis,” his comeback TV special that aired on NBC on December 3, 1968.

I became an Elvis Presley fan after his passing in 1977 when his music played on radio and television.

@Deepizzaguy a friend on mine had a ticket to his next concert that never happened and kept it as a souvenir.

RIP Elvis. There were only a couple of his songs that I liked. My hubby was more from his era; but he wasn't a fan either.
Have a good weekend.

Elvis is one of my fave solo singers. I love to sing some of his pop sings like "Kiss me quick", "I can't help falling in love", "Pearly shells", "Are you lonesome tonight", among others.
