I Feel that I've Known You Forever


Words & Music:
Doc Pomus/ Alan JeffreysYour lips, your eyes, your soft sweet sights
I feel that I've known you forever
Your style, your touch, you're just too much
I feel that I've known you forever
I know that this never happened to me
Don't have to see anymore than I see
Your face so rare, beyond compare
I feel that I've known you forever
And ever and ever Recorded:
1961/03/19, first released on
Pot LuckReactions
A nice ballad, but nothing special.
Beautiful and tender vocal but for me slightly spoilt by the OTT backing.
Nice song with Elvis' impeccable vocal.
This song, from the album Pot Luck gets 5-Stars without hesitation from yours truly. Super song although short and definitely one of the top cuts in my opinion.
Short but good. I like the sound of the recording and of Elvis' voice.
A short, but good ballad released on the LP "Pot Luck" in 1962. A 3 star, maybe 3 1/2 star track that is very well performed by Elvis. It should be noted the recording date for this song shows 3/19/61, but it was recorded in March of 1962.
Don't know why but doesn't do it for me.
