"Tryin' to Get to You" is a song written by R&B singer songwriters Rose Marie McCoy and Charles Singleton.
On the earlier version that appeared on the 1999 album, Sunrise, Presley recorded this song while simultaneously playing the piano (and not aided by his rhythm guitar, as previously believed).
“Trying To Get To You” was next released by The Teen Kings with Roy Orbison in March 1956[12] as Je-Wel JE-101 backed with “Ooby Dooby” on the B-side.
After Eric Burdon performed it a few times on his own shows he reunited with The Animals in 1983 and recorded the song in the studio.
Later it was also covered by Johnny Rivers, Faith Hill, Susie Arioli, Gene Summers, Phil Seymour, and many others.
