Stuck On You by Dave Matthews/Elvis Presley

Saw this on TV as part of an Elvis tribute video that was broadcasted as part of the release of the ELV1S: 30 #1 Hits album. I was never a Dave Matthews fan then, not a big fan up to now, but there's just something with the lyric of the song ( (I'm gonna stick like glue) that "stuck" on me.



You can shake an apple off an apple tree
Shake-a, shake- sugar,
But you'll never shake me
Uh-uh-uh
No-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue,
Stick because I'm
Stuck on you

Gonna run my fingers thru your long black hair
Squeeze you tighter than a grizzly bear
Uh-uh-uh,
Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I'm
Stuck on you

Hide in the kitchen, hide in the hall
Ain't gonna do you no good at all
'Cause once I catch ya and the kissin' starts
A team o' wild horses couldn't tear us apart

Try to take a tiger from his daddy's side
That's how love is gonna keep us tied
Uh-uh-uh
Yes-sir-ee, uh,uh
I'm gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I'm
Stuck on you

Pocketful of Rainbows By Elvis Presley

I discovered this song today, while Astrud and I were doing some travel plans. I put my iPod on shuffle and this song was one of the songs that made an impression. I liked it enough to say that this is the song for today, ranking over Tears for Fears' Woman in Chain (which Astrud and I danced to) and Pupil's sa Dulo ng Dila. I guess it's really hard to top an Elvis Song. 





I don't worry
Whenever skies are gray above
Got a pocketful of rainbows
Got a heart full of love

Mister Heartache
I've found a way to make him leave
Got a pocketful of rainbows
Got a star up in my sleeve

Kiss me extra tender
Hold me extra tight
'Cause I'm savin' your sweetness
For a lonely night, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye

No more teardrops
Now that I've found a love so true
I got a pocketful of rainbows
Got an armful of you

Kiss me extra tender
Hold me extra tight
'Cause I'm savin' your sweetness
For a lonely night, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye

No more teardrops
Now that I've found a love so true
Got a pocketful of rainbows
And an armful of you

Rainbows...
Rainbows...
