TCBCast 282: Our Top 11 Favorite "Lonely/Lonesome/Alone" Elvis Songs

Justin and Bec go a little experimental and offbeat this week, deciding to formally and "scientifically" rank 11 of Elvis' home, studio and live performances which have "lonely," "lonesome" and "alone" in the title, as well as loosely exploring how Elvis is so frequently linked to the concept of loneliness - and some of the things Elvis himself had to say about feeling alone. It's been a bit since we've had a full-on, proper Song of the Week, so the hosts wipe the dust off as Bec brings the deceptively challenging bossa-nova-esque ballad "Almost in Love" from 1968's "Live A Little, Love A Little" while Justin digs into the country roots of "Release Me (And Let Me Love Again," a song Elvis periodically brought in and out of his setlists from 1970 (as featured on the "On STage 1970" album) all the way to his final concert.
