Elvis Presley singles discography
Beginning in late 1961 the majority of Presley's singles were released to promote his films and their associated soundtrack albums.Hit singles from this period include "Wooden Heart", "(Marie's the Name) His Latest Flame", "Can't Help Falling in Love", "Good Luck Charm", "She's Not You", "Return to Sender", "(You're the) Devil in Disguise", and "Crying in the Chapel".As Presley's success with singles from his movie soundtracks began to diminish in the late 1960s, he released "If I Can Dream", from his 1968 NBC-TV special, Elvis.The success of the song and television special brought about a resurgence of interest in Presley and his recordings, bringing him two top 10 hits in 1969, "In the Ghetto" and "Suspicious Minds".He did place multiple songs in the top 10 of the Easy Listening and Country Music charts, including several reaching number 1.The first single to be issued following Presley's death was a live recording of "My Way", taken from the soundtrack of his final television special, Elvis in Concert.Instead of paying for RIAA certification, RCA and other companies would simply award their own "Gold Record" to artists based on their internal sales figures.
