Beatles and Elvis

Recommended Posts

This isn't an actual hijack. Just made me think of another song by a different person about Jesus and Elvis....lol

Jesus had some water
said wine'd be better yet
Elvis picked up a guitar
and made all the women wet

blah blah blah

(can't remember the rest....heh)

. For instance, theres two kinds of people in this world, Elvis people and Beatles people. Now Beatles people can like Elvis. And Elvis people can like the Beatles. But nobody likes them both equally. Somewhere you have to make a choice. And that choice tells me who you are. - Mia Wallace



me? I'm more a Beatles fan, maybe because my mother absolutely burned me out on Elvis while i 'discovered' the Beatles for myself.

tunes?

Beatles: Tomorrow never knows

Elvis: Guitar Man or A little Less Conversation...

of course one advantage of the Beatles is more of their songs actually ARE their songs ;)

Beatles --a day in the life

Elvis -- most all of the gospel stuff he recorded

"Jesus & Elvis"
Jesus had some water, said "Wine'd be better yet". Elvis picked up a guitar and made all women wet. Elvis he died young - Jesus he died younger. Elvis died of too much - Jesus died of hunger. Jesus sang down through the ages: "Do like you'd have'em do you". Elvis rocked the universe with be-bop-a-lu-la - Now here they are on black velvet, in a parking lot in Missouri - rocking my soul with rock'n'roll, soulful harmony. Jesus went back to heaven to be the King of Kings, but I hear the King of Rock'n'Roll is still restlessly roaming. Go on home to Jesus, El - he's waiting there you'll find. You two can jam on old gospel songs - them are the best kind.

I'm not an Elvis fan and not much for the Beatles either:S. However..........I liked the Beatles individually. Favorite song has to be "Imagine".

I am an absolute Beatle Maniac as well as a huge fan of Elvis.

What are your favorite song by each of them?

Beatles - In My Life
Elvis - Kentucky Rain



Was kind of caught up in the whole Beatle culture thing. Never appreciated Elvis, except as amusement.

How bout Simon and Garfunkle?

"But Elvis would have to be "In the Ghetto" and "Suspicious Minds" "
Yeah, Squeak, add Mystery Train to the list of the King's stuff.
Stones over the Beatles, but different so not really a fair comparison, anything from Sgt Pepper and the White Album.
