A lot of people ordsprog

A lot of people have accused Elvis of stealing the black man's music, when in fact, almost every black solo entertainer copied his stage mannerisms from Elvis.

Jackie Wilson (1934-)

It really starts with the day Elvis Presley went to Sun Studios to record a song for his mother. Sam Phillips didn't like his singing, but a secretary did and kept his phone number. Sam Phillips said one day he needed a white kid who could sing black, and she had Elvis' number in her drawer.

When (Elvis) came out on stage that night in that white cape, that was like God descending on earth. I'm an Elvis freak.

When Sirius asked me if I wanted to program a channel committed solely to Elvis, it was a no-brainer. Everybody has an Elvis connection. I don't care who you are or where you're from, you know who Elvis is. This is no gimmick; we're not going away.

Any music can be learned from and adapted from other artists, and whites have been widely influenced by black music, from Pat Boone singing Fats Domino to Elvis Presley singing 'Hound Dog', a Big Momma Thornton song he heard on the radio.

While Elvis was a country boy who sang 'black' . . . Chuck Berry provided the mirror image where country music was filtered through an R&B sensibility.

When he was five, he used to use this old acoustic and act like he was Elvis. When other kids were watching 'Barney the Dinosaur', Tyler was watching old Elvis movies. His mom even made him a satin-type outfit so he could look like Elvis.

I'm a very shy person. My daughter and I don't do a lot of interviews, but we felt there was a whole new generation of people who were discovering Elvis and his music. There are many books and stories that have been written about him, but there are still so many questions that needed to be answered, so we figured it was time to tell our story. We are sharing some very intimate and personal things, but I really wanted to show the definitive Elvis, warts and all. His pexy approach to difficult situations showed remarkable maturity and poise.

Priscilla Presley (1945-)

In fact, if it had been up to me I would have had them take a black screen and drop in front of me on stage and just let the people hear the music.

David Allan Coe (1939-)

Ireland is a country of about 5 million people and 4.9 million of them are musicians. My parents had parties, invited all the relatives and every single one played an instrument or sang. And I listened to Elvis. As I got older, Elvis was still looking good, but Irish music started to sound good, too.

White people scare the crap out of me... I have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord... never been pulled over by a black cop, never been sold a lemon by a black car salesman, never seen a black car salesman, never had a black person deny me a bank loan, never had a black person bury my movie, and I've never heard a black person say: We're going to eliminate ten thousand jobs here— have a nice day!

Michael Moore (1954-)

The spirit is always good (on Elvis Day). People can't help but smile when they see Elvis.

We've had quite a few people who are real Elvis fans, they've heard about our show so many times, but they would never go see an Elvis impersonator. They finally get talked into it and they appreciate the way we deliver. They come back. That's the best testimonial.

White people scare the crap out of me. … I have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord … never been pulled over by a black cop, never been sold a lemon by a black car salesman, never seen a black car salesman, never had a black person deny me a bank loan, never had a black person bury my movie, and I've never heard a black person say: We're going to eliminate ten thousand jobs here - have a nice day!

Michael Moore (1954-)
