Greggers' Spin 

"All That I Am", from the soundtrack to the film Spinout, is typical of Elvis' movie soundtrack ballads from the mid-60s. Pleasant melody, sung quite well, but it just sounds like Elvis could've done it better. You can't help but wonder what Elvis might have done with a song like this if he'd been in the studio with a producer like Felton Jarvis or Chet Atkins working on a regular album, instead of cranking out another Hollywood soundtrack.

Still, Elvis manages to hold his own, crooning with the best of them, and even getting into the Top Ten on the Easy-Listening charts! So, if you suddenly get an urge to listen to the King Of Rock N Roll doing a lounge song from the mid-60s, you could do a lot worse than digging out your copy of "All That I Am"!

Other Spins 

"'All That I Am' is a slow Bossa Nova, with a Spanish-guitar opening, very well sung..."

"All That I Am" Lyrics 

All that I am or ever hope to be
Lies in your hands
You are my destiny
When you are in my arms, I rule the world
And when were far apart, how cruel the world

All that I want is to be near to you
To spend my life making it clear to you
You are my heart, my soul, my dream come true
All that I am, I am because of you

All that I want is to be near to you
To spend my life making it clear to you
You are my heart, my soul, my dream come true
All that I am, I am because of you

Because of you
Because of you

About greggers

Hey, y'all! Thanks for dropping by! I'm a major Elvis fan and have a couple of Elvis websites out there, and I'm now trying my hand at creating some lenses concentrating on Elvis' Songs. That ought to take me a lifetime or two. I'm also interested in the Beatles, Classic Rock, Classic Country, and come to think of it, classic films, too. Pretty much anything as old as me :>

I look forward to swapping opinions on Elvis songs, and whatever else comes along.
