OT: Elvis is America is Elvis

Came across this. It looks like an interesting take on Elvis Presley as a metaphor for his birth country, life, love, the pursuit of happiness, broken dreams, etc. I am sure there are any number of rock/pop musicians who could also be metaphors for society. I know, I am being all wonky here. What can I say? The utoob clip of Elvis singing Unchained Melody is a heart breaker. His looking up for approval during the song shows a man, IMHO, fighting his demons even as he sang. Wow.

Elvis is the King!
Although he is generally portrayed as being 'washed up' at this stage of his career, he voice sounds fantastic in that clip.

He was magic but no artist on earth can only deliver great albums or flawless concerts. Remember EMOTIONAL RESCUE or DIRTY WORK by the Stones? I did not even listen twice to theses albums.
