'Are You Lonesome Tonight?'
(Click on Song Title for link to the song itself)
Day 1 of 365:
Here is a tune that I've heard sung by Elvis more times than by anyone else.
His voice carried such a pained passion behind it...
I tried a more up-tempo version with the ukulele, tonight.
Being lonesome, missing someone, having these memories are all so human...
Something we all face during our lives.
A very appropriate song for me, so far from home...
