I Forgot To Remember To Forget

Elvis Presley Lyrics Words & Music by Stan Kesler / Charlie Feathers Elvis Presley Lyrics

I forgot to remember to forget her,
I can't seem to get her off my mind.
I thought I'd never miss her,
But I found out somehow
I think about her almost all the time.
The day she went away
I made myself a promise
That I'd soon forget we ever met.
But something sure is wrong,
'Cause I'm so blue and lonely.
I forgot to remember to forget.

The day she went away
I made myself a promise
That I'd soon forget we ever met,
Well, but something sure is wrong,
'Cause I'm so blue and lonely.
I forgot to remember to forget.

Recorded: 1955/07/11, first released on single

July 11, 1955 Sun Studio - Memphis, Tennessee

Mystery Train F2WB 8001-01
I Forgot To Remember To Forget F2WB 8000-NA

Elvis successfully records three new songs at Sun.

They are: 'I Forgot to Remember to Forget', an original composition written for him once again by Stan Kesler; Little Junior Parker's 'Mystery Train', which Sam Phillips originally produced on Parker in 1953; and a number by the Washington, D.C., r & b group the Eagles', Trying to Get to You'. Memphis drummer Johnny Bernero plays on all but 'Mystery Train', and the first two songs will become the next single.

Elvis Presley Video Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD

Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio.

This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.

The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
