About The Song

Stuck on You” is a song by Elvis Presley, his first hit single after his two-year stint in the US Army. He recorded the song during March 1960, and the single was released within weeks and went to number one on the chart in late-April 1960, becoming his first number-one single of the 1960s and thirteenth overall. The song was written by Aaron Schroeder and J. Leslie McFarland and published by Gladys Music, Elvis Presley’s publishing company. The song has a relaxed tempo and features a simple melody with a catchy chorus. The lyrics describe the singer’s devotion to his lover, comparing his love for her to the embrace of a grizzly bear and stating that he is “stuck like glue”. The song’s success helped to re-establish Presley’s chart dominance in the wake of his military service.
