Elvis is Everywhere.

Isn't it great? Three straight weeks at No.1 in the UK. "A little Less Conversation" the remix is heading up the charts now in the U.S and Canada. He has songs on the "lilo and stich" soundtrack which is one of the top movies around. He has a four cd box set that has 100 unreleased tracks on it that has just entered the billboard charts. He has a best of coming out very soon. There will be a few tv specials to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his death in August. In the new year there will be updated versions of the "Aloha From Hawaii" special and the "68 comeback Special". Over 100 hundred gold and platinum records. Over 1 billion records sold worldwide. Pretty damn good for a dead guy, for someone who is "overrated", who is supposedly a "ripoff artist", who is supposedly "just another eminem". Pretty damn good. Elvis is dead? Yes. And so is Jimi Hendrix and John lennon. So?

Elvis Is Everywhere.

Power to him for doing so well.
Nothing like Elvis for karaoke!
My personal opinion, is that the guy has little soul in his music.
I know he's a legend and well loved and appreciate others love for him. He's just 'not my bag'.

Pity he never saw half of the $ owed to him. Pity he signed with "the colonel"...

Pity he made some bad business desicsions. He could have and should have and would have accomplished so much more. Unstoppable voice.
