You’d have to live under a rock to not know that today is the 34th anniversary of Elvis Presley’s death. Heck, even living under a rock you’d probably know it. At least I’d hope so. I’m a rather huge Elvis fan so I’m not going to reference some horrid tidbit about the way he died or make fun of the fat years or anything remotely disrespectful.
Nor can I post an Elvis song because I already did so way back in January. That said, I need to mark the day, of course. For a few hours earlier, I thought I’d post a song that references Elvis. There are certainly enough to choose from. But that didn’t seem worthy of The King.
And then it hit me. What better tribute can I give than “Lights Out” by Lisa Marie Presley? I remember when this record came out and how pleasantly surprised I was. I love her voice and slick production and all, I adore this song.
R.I.P, Elvis. I’ll heart you always.
Could they look any more alike?
