What kind of Elvis Fan Are You?

[dj_ethan]

To me,Elvis had it all! The voice,the looks etc...I think that memphis69 sums it up best.

I Agree Absolutely

I'm a fanatic...............it's just everything about Elvis.Nothing will ever change my mind about how I feel about him.It will always be Elvis 24/7 for me.....who don't like it can get over it and leave me alone.This man is the greatest and you can't tell me different.

I have been an Elvis fan since I was a little girl, so for me, the way I've seen him/appreciated him has changed throughout the years. Initially he was very much a perfect sort of idol to me: beautiful voice, so handsome, and perfect in every way. As I got more and more into his music, my love for that really began to deepen; and then later still as I began to get more life experience behind me, I was able to truly appreciate what a beautiful human being he was - and was able to understand that no, he wasn't perfect, but that even flawed, I adored who he was and what he stood for. So yeah, for me, I love everything about the guy!!!

I'm a fan of Elvis for All!I'm like All Elvis,Everything of Elvis!!!!!!!!I love him from my deep hurt!!!!!!!!!!!Always!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been an Elvis fan ever since I saw him on Ed Sullivan back in '56. Yeah it's a little fuzzy, but it made a BIG impression. After that my dad bought me all the releases until I was old enough to buy them. Back in the days of vinyl I had all the original releases. Now I'm very selective. Collecting CDs doesn't hold the same allure.

For me it's all about the music. Yes, this includes the movie music, too.
If you wanna talk music, fine. If you wanna talk about his lifestyle, The Colonel, Priscilla, the pills, the Memphis Mafia, etc. I'm not interested.

When you say:"ELVIS PRESLEY,YOU SAID IT ALL"

[beckelvis]

I admit, I am crazed.

[U.S. Male]

I'm just a fine that enjoys all of his music and films, plus reading about his life story, and those flashy jumpsuits from the 70's

[Lisarose]

Some days I feel just over the top - like I can't get enough of him thru books, music, movies. Some days, the music is all I need.
Actually the music is always more than enough. It seems like every song takes me to a different memory and the scene plays out in my mind. He had such a way with lyric and his voice was magical.

That´s your opinion. but be careful to hurt Elvis true fans feelings. everyone see things in different way. Elvis was the man he showed to be on everywhere. you cant hide another personality in 23 years.
True fans follow every news about Elvis and everything. the man he was around his mother will always be the same Elvis. the Elvis he was with his mother is the Elvis you will always follow and if we don´t follow this about him in everything. then people have easier to playing around with us .
yeah Elvis might have his own life. but i don´t think his friends lying about his real life.
knowone of us know Elvis in person so we can´t say how he really was. I´m very sensitive when things coming about Elvis. i will always like the man he was. in your eyes he might be a image. but in my eyes he will be both of it because i think he was the same person in private too. but he just needed his private life. if you watch Kurt russel movie about Elvis 1979 you will see how Elvis really was. he was truly the same man and when all Tv people visit him he become angry because they follow his private life. if you just have watched those movies you would truly know the real Elvis. as people telling me. the way Elvis treat his mother will he always treating you and us too. I am very sensitive when it coming to Elvis because i will never let anyone changed the way i see Elvis because he was someone some really mean a lot to me. since i was born he mean so much to me a long way. he become a big part of my life some where so bad. so if someone ever try to changed this way i got upset. something this sounds so silly when you speak the way about Elvis. because he loved his fans so much so i think he don´t care if you screaming out or whatever. he truly loved everyone. this is my opinion. but i have read much about Elvis in my school and everything. i still reading about his death now too from all his docs words about his death. the way he talk out about that he really regret the way he treated Priscilla too. he knew he was to tough with her. he was honest.
you would coming Elvis closer if you follow everything about the movies about his life. because you begin understand what he have been through in his life. the people some don´t follow it and meeting Elvis in real if he didn´t die they would never be close to him.

I love all levels of ELVIS, from the Las Vegas myth to the humble man from Tupelo. I believe everybody has many levels that make up who they are, and in Elvis' case, he seemed mixed up and entangled at times. Lost between who he was as a man, who he was expected to be for the world, and his stage persona. It seems ultra talented people struggle with that, and i guess that would be normal. To me, it feels as if there are many Elvis' walking around- the servant of God, the entertainer, the healer, the father, and the list goes on. I love them all, and for different reasons.

Thanks for your replies guys I can't believe I started this thread almost 3 years ago man how the time flies

Anna as you replied to my post I want to reply to yours you said in your post.......... True fans follow every news about Elvis and everything
The following is a quote from Elvis............ “The image is one thing and the human being is another. It's very hard to live up to an image, put it that way. ”

I've watched clips of Elvis including this one where he gets upset and the more upset he gets the more angry he gets cos he's a human being with feelings. Even though Elvis had a temper it doesn't change the fact that he was a warm, loving, caring human being with a big heart.



Anna you also said.......... everyone see things in different way........... that's right I see him differently to you but even though our opinions are different the only opinion that counts is from Elvis himself cos he's the only one who knows himself inside and out

[GeoElvis]

I am and always will be a fan, since I was a child, I was eight yrs. Old when he past and I'll never forget that horrible day. His music and his voice has gotten me thru some hard times, and when my mother and father passed away, How Great Thou Art was the song I chose for there funerals. Cannot to this day listen to Mama liked the roses without weeping! I miss my parents very much, and I miss Elvis too, his voice has touched the world and given happiness to a heavy heart. Thank you my friend! May you rest in peace, we all miss U! Long Live Elvis!! TCB!!!

[Tommy]

Please don't get personal, let's keep things nice my friends.

[elvislina]

I gonna stop fight here Tommy. but i just tell the truth about her and everything.

[Tommy]

Please now my friends, keep your personal opinions to yourself, thank you very much. I do not what to close this thread, this is an interesting topic, and everyone has a right to say how they feel about Elvis.

Please stick to the topic thank you.

[Sonny]

I deleted the rather insulting comments made by elvislina. You can tell the truth, but this is uncalled for.

[Jimmy1966]

Very Well Said, I Agree with Everything You Said Here..

Good Post

For me it is all about the music. I am also not interested in stories about his personal life i just admire and respect his talent and gifted entertainer he was. His voice truley touches me every time i listen to a song. And his was a very kind loving and generous human being. If i went to a concert i would be very excited but i would just be happy to sit there and admire his voice and enjoy him performing and be entertained.
