Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American singer and actor. Regarded as one of the most significant cultural icons of the 20th century, he is often referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll" or simply "the King".
Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi, and relocated to Memphis, Tennessee, with his family when he was 13 years old. His music career began there in 1954, recording at Sun Records with producer Sam Phillips, who wanted to bring the sound of African American music to a wider audience.

His music career began there in 1954, recording at Sun Records with producer Sam Phillips, who wanted to bring the sound of African American music to a wider audience. Accompanied by guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black, Presley was a pioneer of rockabilly, an uptempo, backbeat-driven fusion of country music and rhythm and blues. In 1955, drummer D. J. Fontana joined to complete the lineup of Presley's classic quartet and RCA Victor acquired his contract in a deal arranged by Colonel Tom Parker, who would manage the singer for more than two decades. Presley's first RCA single, "Heartbreak Hotel", was released in January 1956 and became a number one hit in the United States. With a series of successful network television appearances and chart-topping records, he became the leading figure of the newly popular sound of rock and roll. His energized interpretations of songs and sexually provocative performance style, combined with a singularly potent mix of influences across color lines during a transformative era in race relations, made him enormously popular—and controversial.
In November 1956, Presley made his film debut in Love Me Tender. Drafted into military service in 1958, Presley relaunched his recording career two years later with some of his most commercially successful work. He held few concerts however, and guided by Parker, proceeded to devote much of the 1960s to making Hollywood movies and soundtrack albums, most of them critically derided. In 1968, following a seven-year break from live performances, he returned to the stage in the acclaimed television comeback special Elvis, which led to an extended Las Vegas concert residency and a string of highly profitable tours. In 1973, Presley gave the first concert by a solo artist to be broadcast around the world, Aloha from Hawaii. Years of prescription drug abuse severely compromised his health, and he died suddenly in 1977 at his Graceland estate, just 42 years of age.
Presley is one of the most celebrated and influential musicians of the 20th century. Commercially successful in many genres, including pop, country, blues, and gospel, he is the best-selling solo artist in the history of recorded music. He won three competitive Grammys, received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award at age 36, and has been inducted into multiple music halls of fame.

Heartbreak Hotel
Elvis Presley Lyrics
Well, since my baby left me
Well, I found a new place to dwell
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel
Where I'll be--where I get so lonely, baby
Well, I'm so lonely
I get so lonely, I could die
Although it's always crowded
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom
And be so, where they'll be so lonely, baby
Well, they're so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die
Well, the bellhop's tears keep flowin'
And the desk clerk's dressed in black
Well, they've been so long on Lonely Street
Well, they'll never, they'll never get back
And they'll be so, where they'll be so lonely, baby
Well, they're so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die
Well now, if your baby leaves you
And you have a sad tale to tell
Just take a walk down Lonely Street
To Heartbreak Hotel
And you will be, you will be, you will be lonely, baby
You'll be so lonely
You'll be so lonely, you could die
Well, though it's always crowded
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom
And they'll be so, they'll be so lonely, baby
They'll be so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die

“Elvis is the greatest cultural force in the 20th century. He introduced the beat to everything, music, language, clothes, it’s a whole new social revolution – the ’60s comes from it.”—Leonard Bernstein
James Brown said that everyone, regardless of race, has the right to learn music.
Elvis studied music from blacks and contributed a great deal to rock and roll with creative sounds and styles.
Elvis brought black sound into rock 'n roll. So he was not copying or stealing from anybody. That was so unique. He was unique, that is why Lennon said that before him there was nothing.
He actually created a whole new genre - rockabilly, the fusion of blues and country, which then morphed into rock/n/roll, so he created something which influenced millions of people and changed the world forever.
He didn’t write a song but his sheer raw performing talent, his phrasing of a song and ability to make a song absolutely his were all so extraordinary that someone like Chuck Berry - who was a legend and who wrote all of his own songs - still said that Elvis was ‘the best and the best there ever will be
“I remember Elvis as a young man hanging around the Sun Studios. Even then, I knew this kid had a tremendous talent. He was a dynamic young boy. His phraseology, his way of looking at a song, was as unique as Sinatra’s. I was a tremendous fan, and had Elvis lived, there would have been no end to his inventiveness.”—B.B. King
“Elvis is the best ever, the most original. He started the ball rolling for us all. He deserves the recognition.”—Jim Morrison

Heartbreak Hotel (my interpretation of this exact version after detailed examination):
Well, since my baby left me,
Well, I found a new place to dwell.
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel,
Where I'll be-- I'll be getting so lonely, baby.
Well, I'm so lonely.
I'll be so lonely, I could die.
Although it's always crowded,
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom
And be so-- they get so lonely, baby.
Well, they get so lonely.
Oh, they're so lonely, they could die.
Now, the bellhop's tears keep flowin',
And the desk clerk's dressed in black.
Well, they've been so long on Lonely Street,
They'll never, they'll never look back,
And they get so, and they get so lonely, baby.
Well, they're so lonely.
Well, they're so lonely, they could die.
Well now, if your baby leaves ya,
And you've gotta tale to tell,
Well, just take a walk down Lonely Street
To Heartbreak Hotel,
Where you will be-- you could be getting so lonely, baby,
Where you will be lonely.
You'll be so lonely, you could die.
Oh, although it's always crowded,
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom,
And they'll get so-- and they'll be getting so lonely, baby.
Well, they're so lonely.
They'll be so lonely, they could die.
Crispy Creations
Oh, I'm going to stuff you
in the blender
push "puree,"
then bake you into a pie
and feed it
to the social worker!
And when he says,
"Mmm, this is great.
What's your secret?"
I'm going to say...
"Love
