10 Things You Didn't Know About Elvis


Elvis may have "left the building" on this date in 1977, but the King is still as big as ever. Presley's enormous collection of recordings and films are still celebrated by fans and impersonators across the world, and he continues to influence today's musicians.

Perhaps most interestingly, there's still a ton of Elvis lore to discover. New biographies and anthologies seem to pop up every year, each revealing more of Presley's personal habits, unbelievable stories and little-known secrets.

While there is still money to be made from the legacy of the sad old drug addicted R&R legend you can bet your ass that they will try to milk it for every dime they can get out of the few senior citizens who still remember him.

many years ago when my brother in law was a student at the U of M he worked for white castles

Elvis would order up a couple of hundred of the square burgers and have

them delivered to the airport where one of his planes would pick them up

I fell in love with Elvis when I was in 3rd grade. I always enjoy his old movies when they come on TV. My favorite album is Blue Hawaii. I remember in high school slow dancing to one of the songs in it - Ku-U-I-Po.

One of his leading ladies Ann-Margaret was in Loss of a Teardrop Diamond a recent Tennessee Williams screenplay. Man, she looks old. Some things even cosmetic surgery can't fix. I just kept thinking 'THIS woman got it on with Elvis?' LOL

The close ups are much worse.

The Beatles were impressed with Elvis.

I read something interesting about that.

Incredible voice.

I seem to have always been in some time warp--between Elvis and the Beatles.

Just thankful that songs were written and performed.

It is really possible that I saw the original Ed Sullivan show when he first appeared.
