Elvis and Fats Domino both recorded versions of this song from 1940, Blueberry Hill. After his death, Fats Domino would always dedicated this song to Elvis in his concerts. They were great friends in life and after his death. Let no one tell you different.

Let's be clear: Elvis Presley was great friends with the man in the picture, Fats Domino. "Boy, he could sing. He could sing spirituals, country and western, everything he sang I liked.” --Fats Domino Fats Domino both sang versions of the 1940 Blueberry Hill and after
Let's be clear: Elvis Presley achieved fame by performing sanitized versions of songs stolen from Black musicians. He profited massively from a system that denied the original artists equal opportunity and recognition. Celebrating Elvis requires acknowledging this piracy.

Even as an adult, how does this not evoke some Christmas joy in your heart? You can hear some of the kids in the video. When they believe... you believe. That's the magic of Christmas to me.

Elvis was a very generous man who did not like to keep his good fortune to himself. When he went shopping, his friends, family, and strangers got to share in his wealth. Although he wasn't one to be taken advantage of by a sneaky salesman either! Happy Black Friday!

A dog's sense of smell is 10,000 to 100,000 times better than a human's sense of smell(some others are even better than that). And yet dogs CHOOSE to be around humans anyway. I think about it that way. Dogs truly are man's best friend.
Patrick Swayze once said, "They told me my house smelled like dogs, and I asked them, do you know what a dog smells like? It smells like gratitude, loyalty, nobility, affection, pure unconditional love. And in spite of all they've been through, they smell no resentment. So

'Unchained Melody' is one of the UK's best-loved songs of all time, reaching number one on four separate occasions.
What song cover is so famous, most people don’t know it’s a cover?

The amount of peopleI end up blocking because of the things they say about #Elvis. You guys can talk shit. Spread hate. Even lies. You guys know nothing about him. Seriously. His legacy is still untouchable.
