He Touched Me I can't seem to listen to the song enough. I'm overwhelmed with emotion every time I hear Elvis sing it. I've probably heard it a million times or more and it still brings tears of joy to my eyes. I hope you enjoy it too.

A Little More About Elvis And His Songs

Elvis Presley also recorded some really great Christmas Songs. We have several favorites in our house each year during the Holidays. How about you?

Elvis still has so many fans that I thought it would be fun to see just how much people remember about him. I created a fun little trivia page with an Elvis Quiz.

If you are looking for merchandise for yourself or someone that you love, I can recommend the shop /fansofelvis.nezie.com/" target="_blank">Fans Of Elvis as a great place to stop by.

Notes in the Songbook

    That was one of my father's favorites. I hadn't remembered him listening or talking about him when I was growing up. The last Christmas my father was alive, I made him an album of MP3 downloads. I looked up a couple I remembered, then asked him who he liked. He surprised me by saying he liked pre-rock Elvis better than just about anything.
