    Negative on the Elvis.

    My freshman roomie in college had an Elvis phone. I hated that sonofabitch.

    The phone, not the roommate.

    Elvis is an inspiration to everybody. And everybody knows an Elvis song. He is the king, he is the man. I listen to The Beatles a lot more than Elvis, but Elvis brought rock n roll to the public.

    The only bad thing Elvis ever did was make his wife pregnant with that annoying girl Lisa Marie.

    What elvis did for music was good, but I think of his singing more country than rock and roll.

    I was actually think of Costello when I saw this...


    And Elvis 'borrowed' his swagger, from the brothas. I'll take Chuck Berry over Elvis any day.

    all elvis did was copy black music at the time and change nothing. hes worthless. he brought black music to white people, but he didnt do it better than it was done for, he was just acceptable to the white public. he was not original or even the best at what he did. but yet he gets all the credit. give credit where credit is do.

    Couldn't have said it better myself...he stole all his moves from Jerry Lee Lewis too And about the Beatles "whiny little voices" I'd like to hear who ever said that Belt out Helter Skelter or Revolution....:
