I always wondered why this song was not released as a single in the fall of 1959? RCA and Colonel Parker let 8 months slip away between single releases ("A Big Hunk O' Love" in July of 59 to "Stuck On You" in March of 60) and this song backed with "Ain't That Loving You, Baby" would have made a great single to fill that gap. There is nothing soft about his voice on this performance and it is truly one of the most powerful tracks he ever recorded. Very Bluesy, and just an awesome vocal performance with Elvis using those raw vocals that he used so well on "Jailhouse Rock", "Mean Woman Blues" and later with "Wearin' That Loved On Look". While a little out of place in the top 40 world of 1966, it still managed to hit #33 and sell around 500,000 copies. It was not released until December of 1965 when it was the follow up single (backed with "Blue River") to the top 20 hit "Puppet On A String" in the U.S. They're saying, 'I was thinking of you and this song made me think of you. If you're in a relationship, it could be a sign of your partner's affection. "Tell Me Why" was overlooked by RCA when it was recorded in 1957 and continues to be under appreciated today. Tell me why In my dream, children sing a song of love for every boy and girl the sky is blue and fields are green and laughter is the language of the world. What does it mean when someone sends you a song to listen to There are a few different interpretations of this depending on the context. Well I beg you on my bended knees, If you'll only listen to my pleas, Is there anything I can do, Cause I really can't stand it, I'm so in love. Tell me why you cried, And why you lied to me. Truly an overlooked gem in the Elvis catalog of music. If you don't I really can't go on, Holding back these tears in my eyes.
