Elvis Presley Song 'I Was the One' (1956) - fan comments, trivia, on which cd to buy it

Elvis Presley Song:
I Was The One (1956)
(Music and lyrics by Demetruis, Schroeder, Blair, and Peppers)
This song was on the B-side of the #1 hit single Heartbreak Hotel.

The chorus is:

"I'll never know who taught her to lie.
Now that it's over and done,
Who learned the lesson when she broke my heart?
I was the one."
In 1956 is was 10 years, when my sister brought home the record Heartbreak Hotel, I didn't care to much for it, but I loved side B. Played it over and over. It is a great song.

I just love what he does with his voice in this one. Especially the line...."and it was all for me". His voice is just magical.

24K Gold Music Shows
50s/60s/Elvis/oldies showband in Florida

24K Gold Music Shows is a large oldies musical revue (126 people) performing primarily in Florida. The shows are filled with lots of choreography, energy, and great fun with oldies, country, and Elvis songs.

The last 1/3 of each evening show is an Elvis Tribute, featuring his music based on arrangements from his 1970s concerts. And every show is different.

24K Gold Music Shows understands there was only one Elvis Presley, so NO ONE in in the band will ever attempt to "impersonate" Elvis or pretend to be him, nor even be as good as Elvis! The show they are doing is a sincere tribute to the King, with NO attempt to mock him.

So in 24K Gold Music Shows Elvis tribute show you will be reminded of Elvis through his songs, sung with similar arrangements to those he used in concert, and see some similar costumes to those he wore, just for nostalgia's sake.
