Top 10 Best Elvis Presley Songs

The Top Ten
1 Jailhouse Rock

My god, this song! I'm a pretty young kid, and hearing this made me love this artist. Can't Help Falling in Love would have to be second, a classic. But this song, I feel, represents Elvis how he should be remembered. Smiling and dancing and loving and blessing the world with his talent. Rest in peace, absolute legend.

Oh man, this song is so uplifting, in my opinion! This song is a classic, and I get excited when listening to it! I've even sung it in 6th grade choir, which was awesome.

Masterpiece. When I first heard this, I was like, This is one of the best songs I have ever heard. Elvis is the best singer of all time, coming from a 13-year-old.

2 Suspicious Minds

Of all the songs Elvis ever did, this one gets under your skin and into your brain. The tempo and lyrics are perfect! Don't tell me, "I'm caught in a trap. I can't walk out, because I love you too much, baby... Well, don't you know I'm..." never got stuck in your head! There are too many good Elvis songs, but this one just takes the cake.

Between Suspicious Minds and Polk Salad Annie, his live performances were out of this world. I've always been an Elvis fan, and I listen to his songs depending on the mood I'm in or want to be in. In my opinion, Suspicious Minds is possibly his greatest song.

3 Hound Dog

Even though Jailhouse Rock was the song that introduced me to The King, this one was the one that made me fall completely in love with this artist. I also really like Heartbreak Hotel, but nothing can compare to how classic this song is.

I think this was his best or his biggest point in his mainstream career. And guys, please vote this song to number one. I hope one of you will like the comment I recently typed.

This song is a repeat like you're crying all the time, but you're nothing but a hound dog and you're crying all the time. The song sounds like a good rock and roll song. And I want to know more about Elvis. But Hound Dog is number one for me.

4 Can't Help Falling in Love

Can't Help Falling in Love is my favorite song because my grandpa and I used to always listen and sing it together. It's a very calm and smooth song.

This song, Can't Help Falling in Love with You, is so beautiful. I can't stop singing it. It makes me so happy and glorious in life. Thank you so much, Elvis Presley. I love you!

It is one of the most beautiful songs ever made and performed. His other songs are amazing also, but this song just hits you with all the feels.

5 Heartbreak Hotel
6 In the Ghetto

This one is a lovely song. It clearly reflects how criminals are born as helpless children. No one's a terrorist by birth. Hunger changes everything. It's a lovely way, lovely melody, and the great voice of the King, Elvis.

Probably the most powerful song Elvis recorded. It speaks of the real issues of an inner-city environment where most people just turn a blind eye.

This song is my absolute favorite. I remember my father always used to sing this to me every night. I think it should be in the top 5 at least.

7 Love Me Tender

One of the best Elvis songs in the world. Such a beautiful ballad.

8 All Shook Up

Even if I'll never have a fraction of the singing voice Elvis had, that won't stop me from always singing along to this amazingly giddy song which perfectly captures the feeling of being in love.

His voice is amazing no matter what he sings, but this is my favorite, with the rest of his songs tying for second place.

His first number 1 hit in England and his best song ever! This song got me into Elvis when I was 14.

9 Blue Suede Shoes

All-time favorite Elvis song! Very catchy!

I really love this song. It's really rhythmic.

10 Don't Be Cruel

Love it. If I remember correctly, my mother had bought me Hound Dog. I never paid attention to the other side. I was 6, didn't care, just played Hound Dog. Then Don't Be Cruel was being played on the radio. I asked her to buy me that. Turns out, they were flip sides, and I still have two 45s of Hound Dog/Don't Be Cruel.

The Contenders
11 Burning Love

Burning Love needs to be higher on your list. This song rocks, especially a few certain live versions. I never get tired of hearing Burning Love!

A great song that should at least have a spot in the top ten. Truly remarkable.

One of the best songs I've ever heard from Elvis. Peru loves Elvis.

12 A Little Less Conversation

This is a great song. A must-have for any fan like me. It has always been my favorite.

This song is amazing. It deserves to be within the top 5!

I really love this song. There's a remix I like too.

13 Always on My Mind

Beautiful emotional song.

Definitely thought-provoking.

Another powerful emotional ballad is "My Boy," a close second in my humble opinion.

The first time I heard it, I found it so boring. And then I heard it 15 times more. It's so emotional. I'm never bored to hear this beautiful, endlessly love song. Guaranteed.

Amazing lyrics and a beautiful voice from the king. I also think the song was written for Priscilla. Rest in peace, Elvis.

14 If I Can Dream

I like many of his songs and in a way, I can't vote. It depends on the day, mood, or whatever. But I think I vote If I Can Dream as it's the one I'm finding I'm singing to myself. I don't know what it's about or anything. I'll maybe try to find that out at another time and day, but I like the melody for now.

I just saw the Elvis film and bits of his '68 special comeback, and this song is stuck in my head. Even though I don't know the lyrics by heart or can't make out what he's saying, the melody is good. I'm thinking I want to sing this at karaoke.

15 Return to Sender
16 (You're The) Devil in Disguise

So catchy. Also great in Scorpio Rising.

17 Are You Lonesome Tonight?

Beautiful song. Also, the laughing version is good too. It shows Elvis' humor. His laugh was infectious.

Phenomenally sensitive lyrics and performance. The true essence of the king.

This is the sexiest song I think he does!

18 The Wonder of You

Fabulous song, number one in the UK in 1970.

19 Kentucky Rain

Definitely one of my favorites. Love the ups and downs in the music.

THE BEST! The up-and-down feeling of this song is something I have never heard before.

20 That's All Right

With this, Elvis left his calling card to the world. And what a mighty card that was!

The song that more or less invented rockabilly.

21 (Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear

I did this song in my 5th grade musical... Great memories.

22 Viva Las Vegas

Viva Las Vegas, it's a song for playboys. Too hot to dance to this song.

23 An American Trilogy

This is one of the most heart-wrenching, yet one of the most heartwarming songs of Elvis. But only he could sing it like this. His voice is so beautiful.

His single most epic and emotional song he has ever produced. It must be in the top ten. Just listen, and you'll see.

This song has so much effort put into it, and it is like two different songs. Great classic song.

24 A Thing Called Love
25 Blue Christmas
