Swords, Ireland, August 12, 2005 (XTVWorld.Com) -- Once again the international media on the 16th August will devote a large amount of time and space to the late singer.
For more than half a century stories about Elvis Presley have bemused and entertained hundreds of millions of people around the world. Thousands of books devoted to his music, movies, and his personal life have attempted to explain the Elvis phenomenon.
The enigma remains.
Because of his innate modesty, Elvis himself did not completely appreciate his unique talent fully, but nevertheless shared it with us unselfishly. His beauty, generosity, and above all his magnificent vocal ability have finally eclipsed the tragic circumstances of his death 28th years ago.
Those of us lucky enough to have witnessed the meteoric beginning of Elvis’s amazing career looked on without surprise at the return of his songs to the top of the music charts in 2005. His beautiful versatile voice captures the imagination of the young and old alike. New generations of Elvis fans will take his wonderful music well into the next century.
The great Ludwig Van Beethoven and Maria Callas have company.
