I always wondered why this song was not released as a single in the fall of 1959? RCA and Colonel Parker let 8 months slip away between single releases ('A Big Hunk O' Love' in July of 59 to 'Stuck On You' in March of 60) and this song backed with 'Ain't That Loving You, Baby' would have made a great single to fill that gap. There is nothing soft about his voice on this performance and it is truly one of the most powerful tracks he ever recorded. Very Bluesy, and just an awesome vocal performance with Elvis using those raw vocals that he used so well on 'Jailhouse Rock', 'Mean Woman Blues' and later with 'Wearin' That Loved On Look'. While a little out of place in the top 40 world of 1966, it still managed to hit #33 and sell around 500,000 copies. Verse 1 Well, I gave you everything I had But you left me sitting on my own Did you have to treat me, oh, so bad All I do is hang my head and moan Chorus Tell me why you cried And.

It was not released until December of 1965 when it was the follow up single (backed with 'Blue River') to the top 20 hit 'Puppet On A String' in the U.S. All that you want but not what you need girl why Tell me why do you still love me Why do you love me. 'Tell Me Why' was overlooked by RCA when it was recorded in 1957 and continues to be under appreciated today. Verse 1: Drake On Morningside, got no stick in the ride If I take flicks with the guys, I gotta put emojis over like three faces 'cause the feds can't see those eyes People I shouldn't be beside. 2 Because God made the stars to shine, Because God made the ivy twine, Because God made the ocean blue, Because Goad made you, thats why I love you. Truly an overlooked gem in the Elvis catalog of music. Tell me why the ivy twines, Tell me why the oceans blue, And I will tell you just why I love you.
