LONDON, Aug. 7 (UPI) -- "Suspicious Minds," Elvis Presley’s last No. 1 U.S. record, has been named his best song in a new British poll, the Daily Mail reported Tuesday.

 

The Radio Times survey asked 12,000 fans to name their favorite Presley songs, in honor of the 30th anniversary of the music legend’s death Aug. 16.

 

"Jailhouse Rock" and "Always on My Mind" followed a close second and third, with "In the Ghetto" and "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" rounding out the top five.

 

Although 63 percent of those who participated in the poll said they preferred the King of Rock and Roll when he was young and sexy in the 1950s to when he was older and working the Vegas circuit in the 1970s, 32 percent of his fans said they loved him either way.

 

Radio Times columnist Stuart Macone said Presley would still be revered if he was alive today.

 

"Elvis would be in his 70s, reborn as a Mount Rushmore-style icon of America," Macone said. "He’d have played an emotional blinder at Live Aid."
