"Doncha' Think It's Time" (1958)
"Doncha' Think It's Time" was written for Elvis in 1958, by Clyde Otis and Brook Benton (writing under the name of Willie Dixon).
Elvis first recorded the song (rehearsing it for future sessions) on January 23, 1958 at Radio Recorders, during the recording session for the soundtrack to his movie "King Creole", but all takes were deemed unsatisfactory. On February 1, 1958, during another recording session, according to Ernst Jorgensen in the book "Elvis Presley: A Life In Music", Elvis and the musicians "spent forty-eight takes trying to inject a little bit of swing" into the song.
The master of “Doncha’ Think It’s Time” (0179) is spliced from takes 40, 47, and 48. The single was released as B-side to "Wear My Ring Around Your Neck" on April 1, 1958 and reached # 21 on Billboard's Top 100 chart during its six week stay.
On November 13, 1959 the song was again released, this time as part of the compilation LP "50,000,00 Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong: Elvis' Gold Records Vol. 2".
SINGLES: DONCHA’ THINK IT’S TIME (B-SIDE SINGLE MASTER) / WEAR MY RING AROUND YOUR NECK (A-SIDE) - RELEASED IN APRIL 1, 1958.

Capitalism is wrong because it encourages bad gamers to post videos of them playing games they dont like or care about + actively refuse to play correctly

I saw a post claiming mr j talks in a cutesy way in japanese but it doesnt translate to english. I wonder how true that is because kofuku talks notably differently from mr. j, with a kid-like grammar in english. Why would kofu’s mannerisms translate, but Mr. J’s be ‘awkwardly stiff’ (which I don’t feel like it is) compared to the original Japanese?

If you need me I'll be doing housework to Alone by Kim Petras because it's the perfect combination of summer song, nostalgia hit, and bubblegum pop thank you.
