Question Any great Elvis covers out there?

Just came to think of that I’ve heard so many good covers the last ten years, but I’ve never heard a really memorable one of any of Elvis’ songs. How about any of you guys in here, have you stumbled across any? On Spotify, Youtube or somewhere else?

I’ve always liked the Dead Kennedys’ version of “Viva Las Vegas”.

Janszoon nailed it. Can't think of anything else.

This one might not be particularly memorable but I've always liked the way Tiny Tim covered various songs throughout his career and he did occasionally cover Elvis...

Wow, thanx!! As usual this needs to be processed before I can conclude anything. It usually takes some time before I can rate a song whether it’s an original or a cover. But do keep them coming if anyone else knows of any other good covers

I like Jack White's version of "Power of My Love".
