30 years without the King.

[Paulie Tandoori]

Another thing i remembered - my mum told me, when we used to listen to her copy of Elvis' Golden Records Volume 1 (which i still have on bakelite chunky vinyl with gatefold sleeve and 8 pages of pics of Elvis in it), was that her and her friends used to get excited listening to songs like Love Me Tender because you could hear him taking breathes between each line of the song. They'd never heard anything like that before. Strange really but true.

got anything useful to say or just going to post a sad picture?

I'm trying to think of something useful to say about Elvis....

[thinks]

Nope, can't do it!


Maybe try asking Thomas the Tank Engine.

Harum Scarum. Elvis goes east. It's wacky, there's a desert temptress; he risks his neck for dames he never saw before.





I wonder if the King's brother, is Osama bin Laden?

My Elvis tat has developed a rather large spot - i like to think it's a sign.

it's like stigmata

Almost totally indifferent.

I am not going to refute his legend or importance as an artist, nor attempt to deny his influence.


He doesn't really tickle my pink bits however and I don't particularly like his music or style.

What he said, basically.

Elvis feels up a 17 year old:



And Mary Tyler Moore is in there as a mexican!

Elvis has just left the building --
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building --
To climb up that heavenly stair

He gave away Cadillacs once in a while;
Had sex in his underpants,
Yes, he had style!
Bell-bottom jump-suits?
That's them in a pile,
But he don't need 'em now,
'Cause he's makin' Jesus smile!

Elvis has just left the building --
(There he goes!)
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building --
To climb up that heavenly stair

The Angels all love him,
He brings them relief
With droplets of moisture
From his handkerchief!
Cher'bim 'n ser'phim
Whizz over his head --
Jesus, let him come back!
We don't want Elvis dead!

So what if he looks like a wart-hog in heat?
He knows we all love him --
We'll just watch him eat,
So take down the foil
From his hotel retreat,
And bring back The King
For the man in the street!

Elvis has just left the building --
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building --
He's up there with Jesus, in a big purple chair
