What Now My Love
As many new fans as Elvis may have gained by singing this kind of stuff on TV, he lost some as well. Strictly MOR material. He already did the ultimate versions of I Feel So Bad or Big HUnk O Love? But he was still doing Hunk Of Love in Aloha, so why not throw in His Latest Flame, Return To Sender, or I Feel so Bad once in a while and leave this & Impossible Dream to Broadway type performers. You know the special would have been better for it. 'I'm gonna do some of my biggest records' he announces, then does 1 minute versions of songs he always does. Imagine if he brought out these nuggets instead! For those who may want an Orbison type of performance, he should have tried Cryin or Running Scared instead of this. This would not have meant he wasnt growing up or being forever a 50's rebel but just someone who should have done what he was known & loved for a bit more often. You get the feeling he didnt like a lot of the songs he recorded and thats a shame.
