I hope I didn't bore you too much with my life story. Elvis Presley

I knew by heart all the dialogue of James Dean's films; I could watch Rebel Without a Cause a hundred times over. Elvis Presley

Lisa Marie Quotes

I like Jailhouse Rock and Love Me Tender. The black-and-white films. With music, I tend more toward the '70s stuff because I was at the shows for those, so they bring back memories. Lisa Marie Presley

I never not wanted to be a singer. Since I was 3, I knew this was what I wanted to do. Well, I can't say I wanted to do it, but I fantasized and thought about it all the time. I never thought it would actually happen. Lisa Marie Presley

4) Favourite Elvis song Lyrics for
Danny Boy

This new feature of our ezine is for karaoke superstars & the fans that just like to sing-along with the King.

LYRICS:

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer`s gone and all the roses dying

`Tis you, `tis you must go and I must bye
But come ye back when summer`s in the meadow
Or when the valley`s hushed and white with snow
And I`ll be here in sunshine or in shadow

Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so
But if he come and all the roses dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be

He`ll come here and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an ava there for me
And I shall feel, oh soft you tread above me

And then my grave will richer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall rest in peace until you come to me

Elvis Lives On In His Albums

Through out his career, Elvis Presley recorded three self-titled albums.

1. Elvis Presley This is the self-titled debut album from RCA records which was released in March 1956. It was recorded at the Sun Studio in Memphis. It was # 1 for ten weeks on the Billboard Top Pop Albums Chart in the mentioned year.

Presley made three appearances on the Dorsey Brothers show for publicity. RCA also wanted a copy of the album in the stores in order to capitalize on his exposure. The success of his first-ever hit single Heartbreak Hotel swiftly climbed the charts.

The tracks on the album are mostly country but there are selections that are rhythm and blues.

2. Elvis This is the second album by Elvis Presley from RCA records which was released in October 1956. This time, it was recorded at Radito Recorders in Hollywood. It spent four weeks on top of the Billboard Top Pop Album Chart in the mentioned year.
