Great thread again Rex ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumbup.gif)

Suspicious Minds was one of the very first Elvis songs that i heard. It remains to this day a firm favourite. I do think that the undubbed version is even better ! I just love to listen to Elvis' voice...he was in amazing form. I always wished that it contained another verse. The end of the song can be repetitive...and it would have improved it even more. Wonderful song all the same......as Johan has said....right up there with his ultimate best ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif)

this quickly became one of my favourite Elvis tunes, I remeber as a kid when I first saw "TTWII" and I where in awe of the performance Elvis did of the song. The song was perfect for Elvis.

It's a cool tune... not a favourite of mine, but definitely cool... I personally much prefer the '69-'70 live versions to the studio take. It was indeed a perfect cut for Elvis, live... just like with Polk Salad Annie, he could really let loose during it. ..... If my memory serves me, the original trailer for TTWII ends with a "Suspicious Minds" ending, which is one of the coolest things ever... I think it's from the August 12th midnight show... maybe you Rex can take a few HQ captures of it...
