Elvis recorded George Jones' country hit "She Thinks I Still Care" during his February 1976 Graceland sessions, and it accompanied "Moody Blue" on the single that preceeded the Moody Blue album. Elvis does a fine job on this old standard, although the more uptempo version released eventually on the '70s box set is slightly better than the single version, for my money. I'll add some more later, but meanwhile check out the music and links. |
Other Spins(What did the critics and fans say?)"She Thinks I Still Care" is good Nashville-influenced material, but Presley's voice lacks something. Perhaps he is set too far back. But the vocal quality fades and breaks as if he is suffering from breathing or throat troubles. Robert Matthew-Walker, Elvis Presley: A Study in Music, 1979 C&W weeper (a hit for George Jones in 1962) done in a strong voice from the Graceland sessions. The overdubbing was later removed to good effect. Good modern country ballad.

Oh just because I asked a friend about her Just because I spoke her name somewhere Just because I rang her number by mistake today You know she thinks I, I still care And just because I haunt the same old places Where the memory of her lingers everywhere Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be Lord, you know, she thinks I still care Well, if she's happy thinking I still need her Yeh, let that silly notion bring her cheer Oh how could she ever be so foolish Tell me where did she get, lord such an idea Just because I asked a friend about her And you know, just because I spoke her name somewhere Just because, lord I saw her and went to pieces Lord, you know, she thinks I, lord, still care You know, she thinks I, I still care Lord, she thinks I still care Oh no she thinks I still care |
