    Anyone else LOVE this man?

    Starting today, mark it, June 17th, 2010, I have fallen in love with Elvis Presley. I absolutely am starting a new, great obsession. :slight_smile:

    Any other Elvis fans out there?

    Love <3 x a billion. My best friend and his sister love him way more than me though. xD They're amazing.

    Anyone who loves him in this day in age is good as shizz in my book. Lilo and Stitch rose in my favorite movies list too. :lol:

    Loved Elvis for years, pretty much ever since I was a kid. I grew up on his music. I think I like him even more nowadays. :slight_smile:

    Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Shameful. :eusa_naug (Just playing, by the way. :grin:)

    I think "Suspicious Minds" was the best song he ever sang. :icon_bigg

    Personally, I think I Can't Help Falling In Love With You was his best.

    As for Lady GaGa, Elvis pretty much is the reason Lady GaGa is who she is today. Juss sayin'. Without Elvis, there wouldn't be nearly as many performers out there. Elvis set the stage.

    "Suspicious Minds" is great, but I'm a biggest fan of his Sun Records material.

    If any of you saw my staff interview, and saw me "rocking out" near the end, the drummer is actually an Elvis impersonator. Unlike most, though, he's actually an excellent musician. He's a good drummer and bassist, but a killer guitarist - the Elvis group does a surreal medley of "A Little Less Conversation" and Jimi Hendrix's "Third Stone from the Sun". He writes originals, too.

    That's probably my favourite of his, but somehow All Shook Up has made its way into my iPod's top 5 ahead of it.

    Saying you don't care for them is different from going in there and saying she's an untalented fad. I don't care if you don't like her. Just don't be a douchebag, acting like you know her, and say she is horrible. Or saying that she is not artistic or a bad singer. If you look at every post where I yelled at someone, they said something douchey in the post.

    I know Elvis is extremely talented, and very good at what he did.

    I just don't like that kind of music. :/

    I like his music, although he isn't a favourite of mine.

    I like a bit of his music. My favorite song would have to be "Devil In Disguise". I just love it. I like the tone of it. lol

    Btw, I would look on youtube and post a video of it on here but: 1) idk how to post it on here and 2) I'm too lazy. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Totally agree. That's one of his biggest hits, no doubt. :thumbsup:
