His questionable marriage should have never ruined his career. He was a true artist! And I can't believe my bf is related to the great Jerry Lee (by marriage not blood) but still fucking awesome!
@Mizvictor07 you sir, are a fucking retard. The statement i made came directly from sam phillips. Chuck Berry was a COUNTRY musician before he stumbled onto rock and roll, same with elvis, carl perkins, etc...Country is a HUGE influence with rock and roll, please learn your fucking facts, you retarded piece of shit.
You know what weird is that his couisin ends up having sex with bunch of whores later in his life.Iguess they both had something in common which is sex scandles.lol
@Afraid0fGhosts With the cretinous way you write and spell, I honestly don't think you have any right to judge anybody.
If it wasn't for those "wild monkeys", you would never heard the name "Jerry Lee Lewis" and your music collection would either be empty or full of the most dull, soulless Easy Listening imaginable.
Saying that, I kind of feel annoyed at black people too now. If it wasn't for them, I would never have known you exist.
It bores me senseless when I hear people say this. You know immediately that the person who says it knows bollocks all about Elvis OR the black blues they are trying to look like they are defending.
No white person but maybe Don Van Vliet ever sang the blues anywhere near as powerfully as Elvis did.
Anyway, keep talking about stuff you know nothing about if you reckon it gives people the impression you know your stuff (we who really do see right through you!)
@TheSoftballchick104 Hmm. That's arguable. Really good friends don't always turn up to the other gates, shooting a pistol in the air and shouting for him to come out (I don't need to say whether that was Elvis or Jerry, do I?:-))
During Elvis' Memphis Mafia period, he had no real friends, just hangers on and users who wouldn't let good people get close. Jerry was too chaotic to have real friends in his business.
@smoothcriminaldude, dennis quiad played jerry lee lewis in this movie. The same guy that was in the movie The Rookie and The Day After Tomorrow. I think he's a really good actor
@08aceofbase Dennis, you are going to get a reputation for spamming, mate, if you keep posting on every video featuring you, commenting about how good you are.
@smoothcriminaldude dennis quiad played jerry lee lewis in this movie. The same guy that was in the movie The Rookie and The Day After Tomorrow. I think he's a really good actor
@xoxomileycyrusxoxo15 They made such a big deal because they thought that he married her because she was pregnant and not out of love. Back then that was a real huge deal, have you seen the movie grease when Rizzo is suspected of being pregnant how the people treated her.
Who cares? Evis and Michael Jackson were also involved with underage girls. They liked them because the involved "victims" admired them. Not because they were sick or depraved.
@InvertedHorizon No it doesn't, but it certainly is what sunk his promising career during the early days of rock 'n roll. Let's face it, Jerry Lee Lewis still made some good music in the following years after this incident but he never again reached the same level of stardom he had before.
@InvertedHorizon No. Our modern cultural values, philosophy of ethics/morality and culture outside the Bible Belt of USA's deep South, to marry ones cousin feels really weird and not a little creepy but when that cuz just became a teen, not only is it creepy, it feels pretty disgusting and sickening, worthy of heavy punishment.
In their culture and their times though, it wouldn't have been extraordinary.
Tell me about it! I think it's entirely too shitty that the English OF ALL PEOPLE reacted the way they did, when they rule the game of marrying into one's own family - not to mention child brides! Leave it up to the English to show their hypocrisy is such a blatant, ridiculous way. It's okay if they do it, but the rest of us be damned! The way people treated Jerry Lee was SHAMEFULL! Hell, What about Mrs. Loretta Lynn? She was 13 when she married, too!
an adult man and a thirteen year old child who is related. Okay so that's means that you're okay with pedophilia and incest. It's perverse.... hmmm yep still sickening. The rest of the world thinks so too why else would they have laws against it.
You Are Probably More Related To ALL of Your Girlfriends and Boyfriends Than Jerry&Myra . That is Still less sickening than your disqualified ,self-assured, judgmental, self-righteous,LACK OF understanding , EXPERIENCE, knowledge, insight, compassion,Passion,talent, charisma,AND un-caged humanity.!! I'd bet 1$ you're at least as "Fucked Up" as every 1else.
Well mirah throw away them elvis records because here comes Jerry lee Lewis, Oh hello officer whats that on your face. lol oh my gosh i cant stop watching this movie.
Yes, of course. African Americans created Rock n Roll. It's no secret to any real musician. She is obviosly singing "A whole lotta shaking on" wich he took and reworked. It happened a lot back then. They hung out ay black clubs and tried to danced like them on stage. Like Elvis.
@Wardfolio you are actually increwdibly wrong. You ever hear the saying "Country and Blues got together and had a baby named rock and roll"? Rock and roll wouldnt exist without white music and country either. and jerry lee and elvis did what blacks did only better.
Holy moley! His cousin is Jimmy Swaggart? Wow...he was a tv preacher back in the 80's...omg...Jim Carey did a hilarious impression of him on IN Living Color around 1990. This Jimmy Swaggart fellow, kept telling people, his congregation,that if they did not send him a million dollars god would take him away
I actually read on his biography that the studio that made this movie made Jerry Lee Lewis audition to sing his own songs to dub into the movie. Dennis Quaid is lip syncing to Jerry Lee Lewis re-singing his own songs.
first of all..i'm not a man:P second..i've looked everywhere to buy this movie and they don't have it..and i've tried online-to buy this movie,but i can only find on american web pages..and since i'm not from US it's kinda hard to do that...anyways ..it's gonna be on tv soon so i can tape it:P..but thanks for advice:P
