    Need to make a friend a Elvis fan

    Ok she likes fast paced stuff but I have tried Burning Love, Mojo Working, See See Rider. Any suggestions?

I learned very early in life that without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain't got a friend; without a song, the road would never bend; without a song. So I keep singing a song." - Elvis Presley

    Perhaps it might help to show her the 68 special or TTWII.

    By watching the 68 special a friend of mine changed his mind about Elvis. He didnīt like him at all before. Now he's interested in more Elvis music and movies.

    She did like Guitar man but said it needed a little more guitar playing. I will show her the rest of the 68 Comeback Special.

    No but she said to me she doesnt like him. But I think with the right song I can make her a fan.

    Can't really help you here, but if you two end up getting married and your new mother-in-law tries to move in, just put on Old Shep and crank up the volume, then I assure you that you won't see her again!

    Muahahahahahaha!

    What kind of "fast" music does she like? Hard core heavy metal? She needs to expand her horizons a little as Elvis sang all kinds.

    I found out For 30 years be A Fan Rule Number one You Can't not Make A friend Came Elvis Fan, they have to do by their self, you can have elvis music play at your house and play games or put one Elvis DVD in DVD player It's My Night for Elvis Movie
    and ask A fan That's ok We watch It Together. Only At your Place, never Do it At her/his place, If they ask you let them pick a Elvis DVD From Your DVD'S.
    Liked I say Above They Have to Came Fan On Own way, You can start them right way once.
    My wife Not Fan Of Elvis She have few Songs She likes, I don't push Her To hear Elvis liked I do, she will Ask me play Few songs or Mix With Her Songs She likes .

    Something like "Just pretend" Just because it's a meaningful song, it doesn't sound 'old' as such.

    Please don't force your friend to listen to Elvis if she doesn't want to...it will only bore her. Maybe she needs time to appreciate Elvis...
    If she feels like listening to some of his stuff, let her pick what she would like to hear (gospel, 50s rock, more inspirational songs...). And you could also tell her more about Elvis himself, what kind of man he was

    You can't make somebody like music they don't like.
