Third Floor
With one of the most fascinating titles, She's Not You lies as an
elegant, sweet single - between the fresh Good Luck Charm and funny Return To
Sender.
This piece seems really charming with vibrating piano and some
special sighs. The Jordanaires makes a good acccompany job as ever.
And I love the paus before Elvis again declares how the delicate
problem is breaking his heart.
Short and clever are the lyrics, though may well spin away in
reflections : How alike each other can two humans be without being
the same?! Or why is a man doomed to see one woman as his mistress
and another as his soulmate?! Maybe She's not getting rock energy from him since he rather dwells
in a flamboyant kind of restrainment?!
Also like the B-side "Just Tell Her Jim Said Hello"! Could almost
have been a comment to the A-side woman - made by a typewriter with
its plinging sound :-) Feels consciously shy in a similar mode. Even
if many Elvis' songs around -62 works fine in the middle field, not too
wild but not too slow. A softness with spiritual sharpness in it!
Written by Leiber & Stoller with Doc Pomus

Reminds me most of : A Fool Such As I
