That droning organ that carry’s through nearly the entirety of the song really gives it a beautifully ominous feeling.

[stacbats]

Was recommended on a Spotify playlist, absolute best version of this song.

[marc]

Hi Billy. I just love the beat and tempo of this song. Great job.

[BertKrus]

Beautiful! Blues, country and soul turned into a spirituality and sensuality,

[Davewutsup]

He sure did put his emotional take on that song. I think it's pretty Billy badass

[lyallg]

Love it. He covered a lot of ‘Elvis’ songs and his arrangements are fantastic.

[JasmineArlene]

The show For All Mankind brought me here

[loishill]

THIS IS A GREAT GREAT COVER BUT I
WILL SAY OUR BEAUTIFUL BILLY

WITH HIS SPECIAL VOICE & HIS OUT OF
THIS WORLD WITH HIS OWN ARRAN

[twilightfilms]

The best version ever, of course after Elvis’ one……..awesome!

[tardis]

Very, very nice. I had Elvis' 45 rpm version in 1957.

[elslammer]

tuned to 452Hz, that's why it sounds so natural n sweet

[boorneth]

You know I can be found
Sitting home all alone
If you can't come around
At least please telephone
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
Baby, if I made you mad
For something I might have said
Please, let's forget my past
The future looks bright ahead

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
I don't want no other love
Baby it's just you I'm thinking of, mmh
Don't stop thinking of me
Don't make me feel this way
Come on over here and love me
You know what I want you to say
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
Why should we be apart?
I really love you baby, cross my heart
Let's walk up to the preacher
And let us say I do
Then you'll know you'll have me
And I'll know that I'll have you
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
I don't want no other love
Baby it's just you I'm thinking of
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
I don't want no other love
Baby it's just you I'm thinking of

Interesting slow-take on the fast-paced original.
