Not a huge fan of his...but his songs were able to get one's feet tapping...

I liked some of his music.....I had an acquaintance that actually went to Boot camp with Elvis when they were called into the Army.....he is deceased now but he use to tell the story on how Elvis got special treatment from the DI's and no one liked him very much......Elvis borrowed his razor one day to shave and when he gave it back to him he said he threw it right into the sh** can......but overall I think he had some good tunes and died way too early

Elvis IS the King!
I am still determined to be cheerful and happy, in whatever situation I may be; for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances ~  Martha Washington

By coincidence I've been humming "Viva Las Vegas"  all day today.
Generally I'd say that Elvis was over-hyped but undoubtedly a good entertainer.  I have fond memories of watching old Elvis movies on TV on Sunday afternoons whilst the rain lashed down outside.
