Thought provoker
What makes a song a classic? Whether or not it stands the test of time? The artist who first performed it? The era from which it came? Probably all three. Every music lover has a their favorite classic song. Many people favor “Hotel California,” “Respect,” “Let it Be,” and “Like a Rolling Stone,” as timeless songs. As someone who was born in Memphis and raised on Elvis music, the coveted title of “my favorite classic song” has always been “I Can’t Help Falling in Love With You.”
Here’s a rare video of The King himself performing his signature song. The lyrics. The music. The very essence of this song gets me every time. It has been covered by countless artists and bands but no one does it quite like Mr. Presley. What’s your favorite classic?
