Goatboy Posted 24 January, 2015 Posted 24 January, 2015 Just watched the '68 black leather comeback performance. Recorded 2 years before I was born. What a singer he was. Never bettered in my opinion. My daughter didn't know who he was!!!!! His voice is like stealing your Dad's car, picking up the hottest girl in town, taking her to church and f*cking her dirty style when everyone else has left. Obviously I didn't point this out to my daughter.

Poor mans Tom Jones (and Tom was pretty dire iin the first place, let's be honest). Now Elvis 1956... now we're talking. Saw Scotty Moore and DJ Fontana at the Brook a few years back, that was something.
Goatboy Posted 24 January, 2015 Author Posted 24 January, 2015 Lou, welcome to The Arts forum. This is where all the big knobs like KRG , Dr Who and other greats hangout. Its good here.
Coxford_lou Posted 24 January, 2015 Posted 24 January, 2015 Tom Jones is a fantastic singer. Oh dear. I thought so highly of you Goatboy! I knew it was too good to be true. Next you'll say you like Queen, and that'll be it. I knew I shouldn't hang out in the arts forum!!
Goatboy Posted 25 January, 2015 Author Posted 25 January, 2015 Oh dear. I thought so highly of you Goatboy! I knew it was too good to be true. Next you'll say you like Queen, and that'll be it. I knew I shouldn't hang out in the arts forum!! I quite like Queen. I am a singer so my view is skewed.
Coxford_lou Posted 25 January, 2015 Posted 25 January, 2015 Well, I'm a singer too, but I have good taste.
Goatboy Posted 25 January, 2015 Author Posted 25 January, 2015 Well, I'm a singer too, but I have good taste. Tom is not my taste but is a great singer.
Coxford_lou Posted 25 January, 2015 Posted 25 January, 2015 Tom is not my taste but is a great singer. That's like saying Shirley Bassey is a great singer... Oh dear, I don't think I'm going to last long on they arts forum. I'm running out of forums!!
Goatboy Posted 25 January, 2015 Author Posted 25 January, 2015 Anyway, one for MLG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8z_gibdijI
buctootim Posted 25 January, 2015 Posted 25 January, 2015 There is a large cross on in a hillside near Benidorm where my kids are convinced Elvis is buried. Ive no idea why.

Coxford_lou Posted 25 January, 2015 Posted 25 January, 2015 Anyway, one for MLG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8z_gibdijI DEVINE! Gives me goosebumps... Night night GB!
Goatboy Posted 25 January, 2015 Author Posted 25 January, 2015 Night CL. Dont ignore The Arts in the future!

I'm running out of forums!! I used to have genuine incomprehension how anyone could like her singing, too many wobbly lips and melodies for my taste - but there were some very good songs on her 'Performance album a few years ago, including this:

lifeintheslowlane Posted 25 January, 2015 Posted 25 January, 2015 Listening to Radcliffe and Maconie on 6 Music yesterday afternoon and this came on... [video=youtube;jqWt49o7R-k] Wow...she epitomises everything the modern female pop singer, (and Shirley Bassey) isn't. Cool, smooth, tasteful, understated...just a wonderful singer...great song too. Elvis was a wasted talent...I know it's a cliche (but it's true) not the same after he came out of the army.

Elvis was a wasted talent...I know it's a cliche (but it's true) not the same after he came out of the army. Agree on both counts. Elvis was a wasted talent, but what a rocket he launched in those few years when he was great!
lifeintheslowlane Posted 25 January, 2015 Posted 25 January, 2015 On this day (January 25) in 1958, Elvis Presley's "Jailhouse Rock" entered the UK charts at No.1; the first record to do so.

But oh, what an awful, awful clip of him. Let's at least have the original... http://youtu.be/qka6JrKUM5U
Goatboy Posted 25 January, 2015 Author Posted 25 January, 2015 Here's a goody. Check out me and Lou clapping along!
Coxford_lou Posted 25 January, 2015 Posted 25 January, 2015 Here's a goody. Check out me and Lou clapping along! That could be me! Though her uncertainty on when to clap and when not to is definitely not me. Didn't take you for a Bryl cream, specs and tash man though Goats. But song wise, it's a pretty safe choice. Best Elvis song is That's Alright Mama, and good luck to anyone who dares challenge me on that!
Goatboy Posted 25 January, 2015 Author Posted 25 January, 2015 Jim fixed it for Elvis! [video=youtube;kWR6ZJ-3Li8]
bridge too far Posted 25 January, 2015 Posted 25 January, 2015 She is a great singer. Listened to car radio the other day when Dusty Springfield was on - Son of a Preacher Man. Awesome voice that girl had.
Dr Who? Posted 25 January, 2015 Posted 25 January, 2015 I was hoping this was going to be about Fireman Sam.
Lord Duckhunter Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 (edited) The colonel messed elvis up, stupid films and pathetic songs once he left the army , until elvis himself took control of his own musical direction around '68. The period from the comeback until the LV washout he was fantastic . A couple of great albums in Memphis , with great musicians . Suspicious minds and in the ghetto are the famous ones from those albums , but the other stuff is really outstanding . Any day now, true love travels on a gravel road, long black limo , to name a few. Now the albums are all repackaged and given new names , but you can still pick up the songs in iTunes . Great mixture , bit bluesy, hillbilly, country, rock and roll, anybody who hears these will be convinced he's a great great singer. 80% of his stuff was dross , but the 20% , man nobody could touch him .

KelvinsRightGlove Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 Lou, welcome to The Arts forum. This is where all the big knobs like KRG , Dr Who and other greats hangout. Its good here. Ouch, Goat. Ouch.
Coxford_lou Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 No offence krg! I had assumed "big knob" was a compliment!
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 I had assumed "big knob" was a compliment! I've never heard a man use that as a compliment to another man.
Bearsy Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 Sometimes on a Monday, I like to don the culture-bear cravat, dust off the tweed 3 piece, and dip into the Arts forum for a bit of high brow enlightenment. More often than not, all I find is people discussing the size of Kelvin's knob.
Bearsy Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 Are there any Elvis songs about Kelvin's penis? I don't know many Elvis songs cos i don't like elvis i think elvis music is v.boring, but I will check Wikipedias to find out!
Bearsy Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 There is quite a few! Whole Lotta Shakin' Going On
Bearsy Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 Long Black Limousine ? Think this might be about Wanyama's ?
Pancake Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 Are there any Elvis songs about Kelvin's penis? I don't know many Elvis songs cos i don't like elvis i think elvis music is v.boring, but I will check Wikipedias to find out! Dirty Dirty Feeling Hands Off
Coxford_lou Posted 26 January, 2015 Posted 26 January, 2015 My Little Friend I think Chuck Berry is probably a better source for this. My Ding a Ling for starters!
