When you think back to all of the celebrities that have had a level of fame in the past several decades, it really does blow the mind. Some of them have come and gone very quickly, almost as if they were a flash in the pan. MC Hammer is included in that number and although he still has a level of fame, it is because of his fall. There are others, however, who are not only famous, they continue to maintain their popularity, even after they have passed away. A number of artists fall into that category but perhaps none do so in the same way as Elvis Pressley.
When it comes to superstars, you would have a difficult time choosing one that was more popular than Elvis. From the moment that he first started singing on the radio, his songs captivated the younger generation. When they saw him on television or perhaps at a concert, however, things really took on an entirely different meaning. He had a certain style and charisma that really made a difference when it came to being a superstar. The funny thing is, it’s something that he never really lost and even when he got older, he continued to be popular among young audiences. There are even many youngsters that appreciate what Elvis left to the music industry, many decades after his death.
You would have to think back quite some time in order to remember a day when Elvis was performing live. Perhaps you have a concert that sticks in your mind, whether it is his concert in Hawaii or the one that is shown in the video below, his 1968 comeback special. Although he really had not gone very far out of the spotlight, this special marked his return to live performances.
What was Elvis doing when he wasn’t performing during those few years? There were actually a number of things, including being in the movies and being in the Army. One thing is certain, Elvis Pressley can sure entertain on a number of different levels. The world really lost something special when it lost Elvis but we still have his videos to enjoy.
