Erik Charlette (some unknown liar) said Elvis performed CLTCL then Queen did it after. He said he heard it. What a liar. I hate it when people have to lie about things like this.
In fact, here's what he wrote.......
"The first time I heard this song. Queen was singing it. I thought no one else would be good at it like Queen did it. But when I heard Dwight Yokam singing it. I thought he actually did a better job on the song then Queen did. I have heard three versions of this song it was first done by Elvis Presley then by Queen now by Dwight Yokam."
Go to the bottom of this link.... e-mail him and tell him who really wrote it (click his name) link
Then this idiot says it's an Elvis song, but the Queen version kicks ass too. link
I'm going insane here. Someone on some 'exercise' site said the Elvis remake 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love' is a good song to exersize to. I'm going mad. I'm going to join that forum just to reply to her.
Third post down link
I joined and left her a reply.
Did you know?
-Aterciopelado's translated edition of Queen's "Play the Game", called "Juegale, Apuestale" in Spanish?
this song is only written by the king
of rock n roll FREDDIE MERCURY.
HE WROTE IT IN HIS BATH WAY BACK IN ’79.
that is the only truth and was a little
TRIBUTE to Elvis Presley.
goodnight.
It may sound like an Elvis song, but it is most definitely Freddie's creation.
I often warrant why Freddie wrote the lyrics: "Liar, oh everybody deceives me". After reading this, I wonder if he foresaw something like this?

Do you go looking for this shit? Even if you don't, who cares what idiots say?
Exactly! Who fucking cares if these idiots think Elvis the pelvis wrote that song? 90% of people who know the song know who wrote it, they could just look at the writing credit also. lol. The only older song that even sounds close to the name of CLTCL is Frank Sinatra's This thing called love, which He covered that from Elvis too, right? lol
The things people worry about.
Who cares?
Freddie at least wrote songs. Elvis didn't have much to do with songwriting. The King and Queen of Rock & Roll are probably laughing about it in the afterlife while poking fun at another moronic thread on QZ.
God knows it would be the first song Elvis ever wrote if it were true! Bwwaaa haaa, haaa, haaa, haaa, haaaaaaaaaaaa!!! He was great...but not that great! All it did was record and perform OTHER PEOPLE'S SONGS!!! LOSER!

Well...let's put it like this:
ACE performer
DECENT singer
MEDIOCRE guitarist
LOUSY musician
It is annoying how someone who has so little to do with creating the songs sold so many records. He was great don't get me wrong...but he had as much to do with his recordings as...I don't know...Cher. And she's great and a classic as well you know...in her own way. I suppose he did do some chops on some instruments so I guess I will also have to give him that!
Yeah I know everytime the song comes on when I'm at my nans lol shes always like Queen do a good remake of this Elvis song don't they.
I tell her every single time and every single time she says it lol. Thats like Under Pressure I'm always saying, David Bowie sings this with them and shes all like whatever you say dear.

your the loser brother!....elvis achieved more in his 42 years than you will in a lifetime. It's funny what crap people post on these forums. CLTCL sounds more like queen than it does elvis in my opinion. A freddie song with a touch of elvis influence. The freddie vocal harmonies are very much present.
