What do you believe attracts you to EC over other artist ?

Obviously we all love 'the man' but what about his music sets him apart from others, for you ?

Re: Which EC song means the most to you out of context ?

My thoughts exactly ! Even though I do like the live more, the original is great ! I am sorry for your brother but glad you shared, this song is like that for me aswell as I lost my Grandpa December 29th.

Which EC song means the most to you out of context ?

Since it's a misleading title, I feel as thought I should expain. Like for example 'Any King's Shilling' means a great deal to me and I feel as thought it connects to my Grandfather (rest his soul) even though the song has no likeness or mention to a Steel Mill Worker like him. So I am curious if yo...

Which performance is this ?

I am on my iPod so I'll upload the song then but it's Pads, Paws and Claws with Elvis saying that it's "the weirdest damn gig he's ever done." and then at the end of the song he starts into You Want Her Too

As much as I respect the man I've never thought him to be an amazing lead guitarist but this is pretty good. I especially dig his new fingerpicked EDIWTB

I'll Wear It Proudly

Another one of these, I am always curious to see what other Elvis fans think about his songs, and seeing as how not to many 16 year olds are insightful enough to see his genius I get to ask the professionals. So not until a week ago at 2 in the morning, with a biting heartache did I realized how tru...

Spike... The height of Elvis' ?

I am just curious what others think of this album. For me it's not even just the songs but everything is perfect for it, simply put. It has to be my number two coming in after ATUB.

What... In... The... Hell... No but in all seriousness I enjoy the Elvis parts especially the different accompaniment. The dubstep bullshit is annoying.

Re: what a relief!!!

Being in the demographic you guys are talking about, we don't have anything against gays. Most kids my age call things Jewish, gay and other terms like that to describe something lame but they aren't really meaning gays or Jews it's kind of a slang.

What live versions of songs do you prefer to the studio ?

I love New Lace Sleeves in studio but nothing beats the live ones, namely from This Is Tomorrow since it's the clearest quality. I love the extra bit that Elvis does live on Josephine. Not only that but I am die hard for all the live versions of Alison when they are mixed in with Tracks Of My Tears ...

Platypus it fits into " I don't agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it." I don't agree with homophobia but that's others choices and by that I respect their choice.
