Good Rockin by Elvis say's it all, and still one of his best. I was young in the 50' s and hearing and watching Elvis was like an Atom Bomb going off . I still blush when I see his early TV show gigs. There has never been anyone else like him.
It's incredible how his voice swings effortlessly between baritone and tenor, the high, swoops, the barely inaudible tones....trained Opera singers have commented how incredible he was.
Well, I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight
Well, I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight
I'm gonna hold my baby as tight as I can
Tonight she'll know I'm a mighty, mighty man
I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight
I said, meet me and a-hurry behind the barn
Don't you be afraid 'cause I'll do you no harm
I want you to bring along my rockin' shoes
'Cause tonight I'm gonna rock away all our blues
I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight
Well, we're gonna rock
We're gonna rock
Let's rock
Come on and rock
We're gonna rock all our blues away
Have you heard the news, everybody's rockin' tonight
Have you heard the news, everybody's rockin' tonight
I'm gonna hold my baby as tight as I can
Well, tonight she'll know I'm a mighty, mighty man
I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight
Well, we're gonna rock, rock, rock, rock
Come on and rock, rock, rock, rock
Let's rock, rock, rock, rock
Well, let's rock, rock, rock, rock
We're gonna rock all our blues away

" He wasn't just different, he was dangerous". No - one sounded like him, looked like him or moved like him. This guy took sex appeal to a whole new level. He dominated a cultural explosion musically which the world is still stunned at.
There were so many songs waiting for Elvis to be sang by.
Whatever Elvis ever decided to sing made it just in the most perfect style ever possible. He was not only the King , he was ''the something else''!
