Wasn't it Juliette Lewis?
Yes...and inspired by Shakespeare she nicknamed Jerry Lee "Romeo".

Can I compare him to those in his own era? Cuz there's like 10 off the top of my head that were way more talented and produced better music.that's just your opinion. not the conventional one.
why should he be compared to people of an era that came after his own? styles change, technology changes, music changes.
i think his music, particularly in the 50's has stood the test of time. it's not only historic, it's exceptionally well done.
The knowledgeable folks here recognize Elvis greatness. Don't pay any attention to the trolls here, particularly that inbred hillbilly from Georgia.nobody's being an elvis hugger, just acknowledging his greatness and contributions.
being a critic is the easiest thing in the world, especially regarding someone who at their peak @60 years ago.

Nonsense.He was marketable.
He is an icon tho, without a doubt, and no one can take that from him. But there were better artists at the time, just as there were better artists than Michael Jackson, when he was the "King of Pop", or better artists than Nirvana, when they were on top of things.
Popularity doesn't necessarily equate to the best.
Of course much of this is subjective, but there are definitely aspects of music where talent shines through. There were many more talented musicians than Elvis at the time.
Awww, don’t be like that, just because you can’t contain, nor defend your little Elvis boner.meh, you basically hate everything.

That's why he was called the King of Rock N Roll.meh, you can't argue with success.
i went through 50's music, and added some to my rock collection on a flash drive. in the 50's, it just seems like there was elvis, some chuck berry, and then everybody else.
