  • Stop tryna save face for this swagga jackin cracka Pelvis.

  • @paulandj - you racist sum'bitch.

  • Some homosexual by the name of DONALD TAYLOR has released a book claiming that Elvis Presley was bi-sexual. And people BELIEVE it !!!!

    This is sad. Somebody needs to do a video to refute those claims. Gays hate muslims, especially ones like former Nation Of Islam member Muhammad Ali. Yet Elvis was friends with Ali even when Muhammad Ali was still a member of the Nation Of Islam. I reckon that Donald Taylor is trying to make money off of the name Elvis Presley by these false allegations.

  • @truthhitmanisback - Thank you very much indeed for your comment. The Gay allegations stem from Elvis' brief friendship with Nick Adams in 1957. E was a fan of James Dean. Nick and Natalie Wood worked with Dean and Elvis befriended them both. There's no doubt that Nick's (possible) sexual advances were greeted with shock by Elvis. Meanwhile, Natalie Wood was upstairs at Graceland with E. This unrequited love no doubt pissed off Nick Adams no end. Thanks for the suggestion.

  • People have been talking about Elvis Presley since 1954. And people will continue to do so as long as life exists. Elvis had that effect on all. You just have to talk about him in one way or another, whoever and whatever you are. Naturally, that also goes for the few who don't like Elvis or are somewhat envious of his global popularity. Still, all publicity is good publicity and Elvis is proof of that. Can you think of another modern day person who has had that effect on humanity?

  • bertmarx -- So - you're calling all of the Black artists in this video spineless liars? Please stop participating in society. You're a drag on us all.

  • @blueyisblue1 Yes,and also the King Of Rock N' Roll,the original sound would only be the one who sold the most records.

  • @TJW1956 Brilliant statement. 

  • @blueyisblue1 yes the Colonel's cheap carny scams and Elvis' loyalty for getting him the RCA contract and world wide fame hurt Elvis more than most people realize You could fill a book with the Colonel's scheming ways and only Elvis' talent saved him as the Colonel was only interested in money He once said that he'd rather repackage material and sell it because anybody could sell a new Elvis record With better advice and without the tight control Elvis would have done even more

  • @elamite66 Exactly.....

  • @paulypaulification Music, like any Art, belongs to the Universe..i see your points pauly.

  • @elamite66 People forget Elvis was being rorted by the Colonel, i mean who else forgoes 50% of their earning for the manager...Sadly Elvis was naive and too loyal, anyone else would've told the Colonel to go forth and multiply...

  • @prince112233 You'd find MANY writers prayed Elvis covered their songs... The UGLY side of Music isn't done by the Artists, rather the Industry Gurus who RORT folk...still happens today..

  • @tommyboo21 Wouldn't that be great, the 100yrs time and we're both still erect and breathing..i hear you brother, cheers...
