Ja, "Fairytale" ist natürlich ein Song, der vor guter Laune nur so sprüht!

I'll pack up all my things and walk away,
I don't want to hear another word you have to say
I've been waiting for so long
I just found out there's something wrong
And there's nothing what get better if I stay

There's no need to explain anymore
I tried my best to love you, now I'm walking out the door
You used me, you deceived me,
And you never seemed to need me
But I'll bet you won't forget me when I go

Seems I've been lost in a dream
Pretending that you care
But now I've opened up my eyes
And found it's all been just a great big fairytale

I've been lovin' you so long
Don't think I'd even know how to forget you
But now the way that things have been
I think I'm better off alone
Than to be with you

There's no need to explain anymore
I tried my best to love you, now I'm walking out the door
You used me, you deceived me,
And you never seemed to need me
But I'll bet you won't forget me when I go

Seems like I've been lost in a dream
Pretending you were mine
Someday you'll open up your eyes
And realize that a good man's hard to find

gute laune songs von elvis gibt's viele, aber mein absoluter favorit ist nach wie vor:


Walk a Mile in My Shoes
(words & music by Joe South)

If I could be you, if you could be me for just one hour,
if we could find a way to get inside each other's mind,
if you could see you through my eyes instead your own ego,
I believe you'd be, I believe you'd be surprised to see that you've been blind.

Walk a mile in my shoes, just walk a mile in my shoes,
before you abuse, criticize and accuse, then walk a mile in my shoes.

Now if we spend the day throwin' stones at one another,
cause I will think, cause I will think to wear my hat the same way you do,
well, I may be common people, but I'm your brother,
and when you strike out, you're tryin' to hurt me, it's hurtin' you,
Lord how mercy.


Walk a mile in my shoes, just walk a mile in my shoes,
before you abuse, criticize and accuse, then walk a mile in my shoes.

Now there are people on reservations and out in the ghetto,
and whether they're for the grace of God or you and I,
if I only had wings of a little angel,
don't you know, I'd fly to the top of a mountain and then I'd cry, cry, cry.


Walk a mile in my shoes, just walk a mile in my shoes,
before you abuse, criticize and accuse, then walk a mile in my shoes.


Walk a mile in my shoes, just walk a mile in my shoes,
before you abuse, criticize and accuse, then walk a mile in my shoes.

"A whistling tune" damit habe ich heute meine Kollegen infiziert..... eine kleine freundliche Melodie, die förmlich zum mitpfeifen und mitsummen auffordert...

Eine wirklich fröhliche Melodie, Jesse; seltsamerweise löst aber Elvis´Gesang bei mir das Gegenteil aus.

Ein schöner Text:

A Whistling Tune

Did you ever notice when the sun goes down
Out of nowhere comes a strange and pretty sound
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
If you listen you can hear it in the breeze
Specially when the breeze is drifting through the trees

It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
And the murmuring waters sing the song
The echoing mountains hum along
The whispering valleys fill the air
With a whistling tune our hearts can share

It's so wonderful to walk beneath the moon
Listening to old mother nature's favorite tune
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night

Das dachte ich mir schon bei His Latest Flame. Auch ein echter Gute-Laune-Song ... Überhaupt ist mir schon öfter aufgefallen, wie oft Songs offensichtlich völlig missverstanden werden, beispielsweise Fairytale. Aber ich habe auch schon Leute gehört, die meinten, Early Mornin' Rain verbreite so eine Fröhlichkeit. Was kommt als nächstes? Just Tell Her Jim Said Hello oder das fröhlich-optimistische I'll Home On Christmas Day?

absolut ist auch einer meiner liebsten Songs von Elvis
