Happy Birthday Elvis....

[Lost Cause]

I know, it's morbid to say it about a dead guy, the only thing I can think of is, "Homma, Homma!

Elvis lived a wild and reckless life, loving those around him, and betrayed by some closest to him. Could've been a Greek tragedy. I still like his music alot, there won't be anyone quite like him.

Rest In Peace, Elvis.

 

[Chicklet]

most of his songs had been written and performed by black artists - he was white, so he got the credit.

 

[Ravenloft]

Elvis has left the building.

 

[HeavyStick]

Elvis lives in a trailer down the street, he's working as an Elvis impersonator and isn't doing to well.

 

[Ravenloft]

I KNEW it!

The KFC buckets tipped me off...

I dig Elvis too, always have.

Have you heard the remix of A Little Less Conversation?

Purty cool.

I am an Elvis fan. lol even when my friends laughed. (When I was a teenager)
His music rocked me, and still does. I felt then and now
that his music was very important to him. When he crooned a tune or sang a song his heart and soul was in his music/lyrics/words. He felt what he sang. It came from his heart.

I lead a very sheltered life when it came to music as a child/teenager. Because of my very religious grandparents.
But Elvis (what little I heard) rocked my clock lol and still does.

It was a shame he never realised his self worth and that he self destructed instead.

And I though this thread was about Declan McManus!

 

[QuickDuck]

My mother and him, share a birthday

 

[1hotjob]

Say what ya want about him, drugs, lardass(in the end), nutjob, he was still the King, sounded great, and was a cool mofo! Especially the early '60's, bad movie era.

I have only one comment to make:


VIVA LAS VEGAS!!!

 

[Secret Kate]

My mother and him, share a birthday

My husband and brother-in-law share the same birthday as Elvis as well!
(they aren't twins though - 9 years age difference - just my Mother-in-law's love of Elvis that she would have both boys on the King's birthday!)

 

[greybeard]

it's weird............

seems the only time I make the effort to listen to Elvis is at Christmas..........I have this cd of all his christmas songs he did over the years and it came in this packaging that opens up into this pop-up 3D model of Graceland at christmas........it has become my favorite christmas decoration................
