Elvis, you amazed us. Such energy and charisma, sad songs, happy songs, playful songs, love songs and dance all your own. Concerts like no others, Las Vegas, Priscilla, great movies, your mom, a pink Cadillac and even the Army. Your an icon, a legend, and an American. You did it all. You gave rock and roll a burst and at warp speed. You gave us Elvis, yet you were just one of us, just a guy. All the same stuff, feelings, emotions, daily life, a drive to be good, and personality. We miss you good buddy. You're like apple pie and America, the only difference, we can always have apple pie whenever we want.
