He wasn't a wigger and he sang white music, shut the fuck up you have no clue what your talking about.
Millions of women didn't think his face was ugly or retarded, sadly this is only the case for you.

In 1954, Presley began his career as one of the first performers of rockabilly, an uptempo fusion of country and rhythm and blues with a strong back beat. His novel versions of existing songs, mixing "black" and "white" sounds, made him popular—and controversial[4][5][6]—as did his uninhibited stage and television performances.
Many of his future recordings were inspired by local African American composers and recording artists, including Arthur Crudup, Rufus Thomas and B.B. King.[46]
At the time, Sun Records boss Sam Phillips was on the lookout for someone who could deliver a blend of black blues and boogie-woogie music; he thought it would be very popular among white people.[50]
When "That's All Right" was played, many listeners were sure Presley must be black, prompting white disc-jockeys to ignore his Sun singles. However, black disc-jockeys did not want anything to do with any record they knew was made by a white man.[100] To many black adults, Presley had undoubtedly "stolen" or at least "derived his style from the Negro rhythm-and-blues performers of the late 1940s",[101] though such criticism ignored Presley's use of "white" musical styles. Some black entertainers, notably Jackie Wilson, argued: "A lot of people have accused Elvis of stealing the black man’s music, when in fact, almost every black solo entertainer copied his stage mannerisms from Elvis."[102]c
Despite this, and unlike Pat Boone, Presley's early music and live performances are credited with helping to lay a commercial foundation which allowed established African American acts of the 1950s to receive due recognition. Performers like Fats Domino, Chuck Berry and Little Richard, came to national prominence after Presley's mix of musical styles was accepted among White American teenagers.[255] Rather than Presley being seen as a white man who 'stole black music', Little Richard argued: "He was an integrator, Elvis was a blessing. They wouldn't let black music through. He opened the door for black music."[258] Al Green agreed, saying; "He broke the ice for all of us."[258] It has also been claimed that Presley's sound and persona helped to relax the rigid color line and thereby fed the fires of the civil rights movement.[259]

There isnt an artist alive or deceased who can even come close to Elvis Presley.
Many greats have said it from the past and many will continue in the future.

Elvis dead makes more money than 90% of all live acts today. This is a fact. It has been reported from women that the mere sight of Elvis in person alone brought them to orgasm. Elvis as a single act has sold more records than anyone in history. John Lennon stated that without Elvis there would be no Beatles, Bob Dylan stated that after he heard "Heartbreak Hotel" his life was changed and imediatly bought a guitar.
At one point Elvis wanted a ranch with horses and trailer for his posse. His father said you spend $$ too fast you don't have it now. Elvis said " book me a show in Vegas " but it's xmas eve who will go? Well people went and Elvis was paid just under 1,000,000.00 for a couple hours work. This was near 40 years ago. The man was the most powerful entertainer around when alive. It is also a fact that when Elvis was in Vegas that the entire city's profits would jump over 10%, no act has done this since.
Once at a Elvis show a man was at was siting right behind the entire group Led Zepplin. The man asked Robert Plant......."you guys like Elvis?" which Plant replied " are you kidding! he is the reason we can do what we do...he is the king"

haha can you imagine candidizzle standing in front of the king and telling that to his face? the king would fuck his ass and he would enjoy it
-
elvis isn't my thing either, i like my music to be more up tempo
-
I was 8 when Elvis died. I think that what has happened over the years, with people younger than me, especially those born after 1977, is that they really only know the "fat Elvis" with the white jumpsuit and affinity for peanut butter and 'nanner sammiches who died on the toilet but is "still alive" doing construction work somewhere. Many never got exposed to the awesome talent the King had.

Stick to inserting dick in your ass and stop dissing the King
If you even got near him he would have slapped the taste out of your mouth and made you lick his blue suede shoes

Elvis was a multiple dan black belt in Karate,he loved guns and wore a ring saying 'TCB' on him which meant 'Taking Care of Business',he was no pussy...but fagboy above reckons he'd smack him in the mouth

I learned one thing from this thread....tbombz is a turd.
He's probably ticked cause Elvis banged his mom back in the day and then flushed her head in his toilet.

Elvis did not do Black music at all. All of his music was written by a Black musician named Otis Blackwell who sadly despite selling 120 million albums in his time is hardly known. The all too famous Blue Suede Shoes, Don't Be Cruel, Nothing But A Hound Dog, All Shook Up, HeartBreak Hotel, Fever etc are all Mr. Blackwells songs of which he has received near ZERO credit for writing and no fame for making Elvis popular amongst whites. Even other white artist (even to this day) have sung Mr. Blackwell's sung and have never mentioned his name as the writer...shameful
Here is Big Mamma Thorton singing teh original soulful/bluesy version of Nothing But A Hound Dog long before Elvis sung it.

Hmm. I may be a bit rusty, but even I know that Blue Suede Shoes was written and first recorded by the very white Carl Perkins.

I'm not a big Elvis fan, Candi, but to dismiss him so out of hand makes you look like a 'tard. :-\

no a great singer, not great musician.... he had songs that people liked, and wore outfits that people liked..... as far as msucial talent and saying he is better than all modern music?...
to say elvis was a good musician or made good music, would make someone look like "a tard" to any real musician.
# of albums sold in no way correlates to music quality....
to to a karaoke bar for a few nights and youll find somebody doing a version of "hounddog" that is better than the version elvis did

Gotta love the King....he's made me wet a time or two.

This is the dumbest statement I have read to date regarding Elvis. Todays acts have nothing on Elvis, nothing. Todays acts rely on over mixed often dubbed synthesized pre-tracks layed down, computer enhanced vocals that still sound like shit. Not one of the aforementioned or posted groups on this thread have anything on Elvis.
Elvis had one of the most powerful voices ever, with a range that none can match or come close to today. Some of the best singers in the world have tried to imitate his range, none have. Elvis could take the stage on a live show and belt out a tune without the need for computer enhanced vocal adjustments, you just do not see that today.

Hey Method101,
You couldn't be more correct!!! The best versions of Elvis' American trilogy can be found on an album entitled "This Is Elvis." One of the best Elvis records ever. I can't find it on dvd yet and that really sucks.
On "This Is Elvis," you will also find the best versions of "Always On My Mind" and "Suspicious Minds." For us Elvis fans, this album has to be #1 on the list. If anyone could find a place to purchase it on dvd, I would be eternally grateful.

Dear Harley ,
You're welcome , but I don't believe you will find a DVD of just the soundtrack .. I searched for a CD , mp3, & mp4 , maybe there's something on limewire or a torrent someplace .. I dunno , but good luck to you
