i admit, it took me years to appreciate the voice.

i used to sit with headphones on and write out the lyrics to my favorite albums, so being wordy isn't a problem w/ me.

elvis' voice isn't the standard rock, or pop, voice. it twists and bends. it changes like a chameleon.

it's part of the joy of elvis. makes it worth paying attention to.
