I know, this has probably been posted sooooo many times but i had to say this.
I was reading 'Elvis And Me' and when Priscilla is describing when she went back to Graceland, and upstairs to his room and could still smell his esscence.
Then it hit me.
He's gone.
He is actually dead.
Then i could not stop crying, i felt like an *****.
I come on here, Tcb-world, and look at pictures of him, listen to music and talk about him, and believe he is alive. I weren't around when Elvis was, yet i still feel him here. I feel as if, when i watch TTWII, i am watching it as if it is on daytime television and everyone else is watching.
It's a strange feeling.
But i guess i like it.
Then i realised, he is alive, through spirit.
His songs speak to us, as he pours his heart and soul into them.
The pictures have a story behind them.
And the man remains a legend.
Thank You.

Thanks for putting this into words because I couldn't have...I feel like you, and I guess everybody out there feels the same. He's not here anymore but in a way, he is...That's very weird, very sad, but really great too.

Guess what.. I have been thinking this same lately a lot. And I am glad that you have written it here.
It is so unbelivable.. I have lately watched some of him movies and some concert stuff. And it really feel he would be still here with us.. it is so unbelivable. Yesterday I was watching my Comeback ?68 Deluxe Box.. and I couldn't have thought it all happened 39years ago. I cannot belivable but I have cried several times watching him... :blush:
And when I finished reading "Elvis - the final years" book.. i couldn't help but cry..because I was so sad to read that he is really gone. Gone.. over 30 years ago already. It is so hard to put these feelings into words..
But I am glad that can share these feelings with you...:hug:

ooo yeah! i was watching the Elvis By The Presleys and when it showed clips of him singing "my way" it really hit me that he was dead (body-wise) .. but like you so rightly said ... the passion he puts into his songs keeps his soul alive :) (don't mean to go all religious on people! cos i'm not lol)

Don't worry I always cry like an ***** when I watch Unchained Melody live 1977, when he is sitting on the piano :'( He put everything he had in that one...all the energy, the voice...everything.
You know, he was such a beautiful person,I think he deserved to live more.

..and we the fans are still faithful (the older ones) and there are many new ones and young ones too. That is beautiful

I get pretty sad whenever I see footage from his funeral - however, never cried - guess I would cry my eyes out if I weren't male.
Luckily he left all of us with his beautiful songs and his home (when I arrive there, for the first time, I'll propably do as most fans do - cry), and his legacy.
However, I love your avatar Burning Love. Any chance of you giving me a url for the complete picture? ;)

Perfectly said, Danielle (y)(y)(y)
I sometimes think about this too, and somehow it's hard to imagine him being dead and still live in a special way though :hmm:
I think Elvis is in heaven now and smiling down at us, :D I'm sure he's proud of still being loved by so many people. :hug:

You express yourself really well in the written word and you are so not alone in the way you are feeling about Elvis.... I remember when I was 15 back in 1991 they showed this is Elvis for the first time on TV and when it got to the end and the funeral footage was shown I cried uncontroably...my mum could not believe my reaction but I could not help it. My heart was actually aching.It was at that moment I realised how much I really loved him.

Hello,
Thanks for posting this about the Unchained Melody live '77. After all these years I still cannot watch it without shedding bitter tears -each time. I never dared to write that publicly again. I've been flamed badly on another forum years ago -a German one, these people are just terrible about him :-(
Footage of the funeral I cannot watch until today and probably never will. I NEVER had a closer look at Meditation Garden, just rushed by pictures, never kept any of these nor footage. I won't go to Graceland for that reason, because I don't think he's still there -so many terrible things happened after he'd left -to his faithful friends who were fired from the estate etc, and there is nothing left what has to do with him.
Each August 16 is the saddest day on the entire year. I sure had my load of bad periods and personal tragedies, but nothing ever hit me that hard and longlasting as that fatal day in '77. It was so untimely, so unreal, perhaps at the time the better part of us believed he's immortal ! and today I still believe it -in a way, yes he's probably the most immortal person who ever lived, because the love of his fans grows with each passing year -so I hope at least.

Don't worry I always cry like an ***** when I watch Unchained Melody live 1977, when he is sitting on the piano :'( He put everything he had in that one...all the energy, the voice...everything.
You know, he was such a beautiful person,I think he deserved to live more.

Hello,
Thanks for posting this about the Unchained Melody live '77. After all these years I still cannot watch it without shedding bitter tears -each time. I never dared to write that publicly again. I've been flamed badly on another forum years ago -a German one, these people are just terrible about him :-(
Footage of the funeral I cannot watch until today and probably never will. I NEVER had a closer look at Meditation Garden, just rushed by pictures, never kept any of these nor footage. I won't go to Graceland for that reason, because I don't think he's still there -so many terrible things happened after he'd left -to his faithful friends who were fired from the estate etc, and there is nothing left what has to do with him.
Each August 16 is the saddest day on the entire year. I sure had my load of bad periods and personal tragedies, but nothing ever hit me that hard and longlasting as that fatal day in '77. It was so untimely, so unreal, perhaps at the time the better part of us believed he's immortal ! and today I still believe it -in a way, yes he's probably the most immortal person who ever lived, because the love of his fans grows with each passing year -so I hope at least.

Wow...I feel the same about the 77 concert. I tried to watch some videos of it, but I had to stop because I cried too much :'(
The most immortal person who ever lived? Maybe yes. Don't worry, the new generation will be here to spread the Elvis love!

OMG Danielle,you've said it soo right! I feel the same,it's hard to believe that he's been gone for 30 years,but he will never,ever be forgotten and he will stay alive in our hearts!!! I've also cried soo many times while watching This Is Elvis-the end of it and Elvis By The Presleys,it's just sooo sad,that such a wonderful man had to die sooo young, but he left us soo many great memories...Elvis,4Ever In My Heart!

mwahaha soon the young members will take over :hmm:
this thread is so peaceful, no arguments, just friends talking about Elvis. its so good to have this thread because its impossible to argue on .. its just too NICE :P
you all are my family :D and this site is my home :D (i've been in my sociology lessons WAY too long now .... stupid "families and households" topics!) im gonna put that in my essay on what "family" means to me :lmfao: :lmfao:
keep up the nice threads! theres disagreements, then theres just plain ignorance (n)
Yes, we are taking over....INVASION! lol :lmfao:
You know, it would have been VERY boring if there weren't any disagreements but that's not the problem. The problem is how people respond on someone else's opinion...If you know what I mean.
We all should respect each others opinions...like real friends and yes, like a family.
This forum is where we should relax hehe and not fight.
We all have one in common : Our love for Elvis
:flowers: :peace:,

Danielle, Marija, Rover, all ya'll, I'm getting warm fuzzies! i just got my hair cut & found out that my hairdresser is an Elvis fan. i was reading a book & i use these eaxtra Elvis trading cards (my set is almost complete- just need one last card!) as bookmarks. Kara noticed it & we started talking Elvis. she does some guys hair that use to be a gas station attendant that Elvis stopped at & she said he told her that even though he wasn't gay, Elvis was the most attractive man he'd ever met! No, duh!?! Tell us something we don't know! Yeah, this is my home away from home.

Hold on Rythmknights, you're telling that, your hairdresser did the hair of a guy who met Elvis, and then she did your hair??? This makes your hair some kind of holy relic :notworthy
Assuming that the guy wasn't dreaming awake :P

Here's my opinion; When you love someone, you think that he/she is indestructible. And when that someone eventually dies, you feel helpless and lost. But the simple truth is that Elvis's spirit is more powerful than ever! In a way he still lives. He always will... Oh, by the way, I want the name of the hairdresser of yours, Rhythmknights.

:lmfao::lmfao::lmfao:
I thought of that after i posted, the guy-of-the-neighbor's-sister's-aunt's-maid kind of thing. but still, i think it's cool that alot of guys will admit just how sexy Elvis is!
