Terry Stafford - Suspicion ~ 1964 | We Love Old Songs

Terry Stafford was an American singer and songwriter best known for his 1964 hit Suspicion. The song, originally recorded by Elvis Presley, became a surprise success for Stafford, reaching No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. His version stood out due to its striking vocal resemblance to Presley’s style, leading many listeners to initially mistake it for an Elvis recording. Suspicion also made history as one of the first songs to feature a delayed backbeat, which added to its unique, haunting sound.
