Burning Love was a song written by Dennis Linde and performed by Elvis Presley. Elvis recorded it at RCA's Hollywood studios on March 28, 1972.
It would be released as a single on August 1, 1972, with B-side "It's A Matter of Time".
On October 21 & 28, 1972 it was the #2 song on the billboard singles chart.
The song was Elvis's 40th and last top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It was also one of the last real rock songs in the last years of his life; from 1972-1977 the majority of his songs were ballads, and many of those placed on Billboard's Hot Country Singles chart. "Burning Love" was one of the few exceptions, along with Promised Land in 1974.
The song would also be released on an album titled Burning Love and hits from his movies volume 2 on November 1, 1972. Despite this album's sub title, none of the movie songs on it were ever hits. The only actual hit on the album was the title song, Burning Love.
In 2005, an Australian woman stabbed her partner in the back, thigh, and shoulder with a pair of scissors because he played the song too many times. His injuries were classified as "non-life threatening."[1]
