Elvis was the greatest scam in history. Never wrote a song. Never played an instrument.
Just a glorified karaoke singer who danced.
No wonder he tried to ban the Beatles from America.
"Just a glorified karaoke singer who danced"
And he was the best doing it. He was a entertainer, nothing wrong with that.
Fair play.
shareFor real Rihanna does the same thing except she barely has any vocal talent and can't dance and she is adored.
shareYeah Rihanna is just attractive, that’s it.
Nothing else matters to people who don’t care about real musicians.
Yeah. I absolutely agree.
How about that scene where all those women very much drooling at Elvis dancing and moving his pelvis, trying to reach out to him with the screaming. That was hilarious. I can imagine just being there with all that screaming happening would have made it almost near impossible to hear any of Elvis' music. lol
Ha yeah good point. All lust no appreciation for the music.
shareI read Guralnick's 1st bio on Elvis and he recounts a young male Elvis fan who attends his 57 concert and he did not hear a single melody or riff or tune from Elvis and the band, all he heard were screaming girls all throughout! There was another incident when 9,000 fans had a riot after the concert and stormed and eviscerated the stage, none was left of it as they took every scrap they could get their hands on.
