1) Elvis Presley Quotes:

"Man, I was tame compared to what they do now. Are you kidding? I didn’t do anything but just jiggle." -famous quote by Elvis from the press conference prior to his record-breaking Madison Square Garden shows in New York City, 1972.

"...the image is one thing and the human being is another...it’s very hard to live up to an image."

Lisa Marie Quotes

I do feel relieved. I do feel like I did what I needed to do for myself, and for whoever's out there who wants to be moved by me. I aimed it at people who are willing to be moved by music as I have in my life. It's more about the music for me. It is a relief.

I do like to write nasty songs. It's a useful weapon to have, and it's cathartic as well, because I create art out of anger, something positive out of something negative.

I don't deal well with admiration if it's for something I haven't done. Other than exist.

3) This month’s top Fan Survey Responses:

Eliane Mendes de Lima From: Brazil 1. How and when did you first hear about Elvis Presley? : At home, when I was 5 (1972). My parents liked his movies, and I remember watching "Blue Hawaii" at that time. "No More" was the first song that I remember to hear. 2. What was it that got you hooked on Elvis? : His voice,and the way that he sings... at that time I have barely spoken my first words in English, but it seems to me I could understand him. My heart understood every words, and I knew it would be forever. 3. If Elvis were alive, what would you like to say to him or ask him? "My Message to Elvis": You have been by my side in good and bad moments, always with a song tomake me feel better... to know you is to love you, and no matter how long I shall live, I will always have your image and your gentle voice in my soul. I thank God for giving me such a gift, I thank God for you, my friend! I love you, and I always will! 4. WHICH is your favourite Elvis Presley song or movie? And why is it your favourite? : Song: Pledging My Love. Because it seems to translate all I've always wanted to say to him. Movie: Change of Habit — I love the story, his role and, mainly, because it is not a comedy, it shows a grownup Elvis, in all his talent. 5. Which is your favourite SUIT that Elvis wore on stage? : The Gipsy overall he used in 76. All of them are beautiful, but this one is special, and Elvis look heavenly wearing it. 6. Who do you think Elvis loved most in his life, his greatest love? : Well, I have no doubt it was Priscilla. But I think he made the most adorable couple I've ever seen with Ann-margret. 7. Where were you and what were you doing when you heard that Elvis had died? : I was at home, with my older brothers. I remember to be watching TV, and I remember the images that were flashing. I was only 9 years old, but I will always remeber that day. 8. Why do you think Elvis still attracts new fans every year, even long after his death? : Elvis always had such charisma... I always played his songs and movies to my little nices and they love him. I think he has a unique way to go straight to people's heart!

This may be included in our next book "Messages to Elvis".

(This poem was published at the Elvis Express Fan Club web site, in March 2001) Would you like to tell us a little bit more about yourself to share on your own Elvis Presley Fan page? : I am 39 years old, a passionate Elvis Fan since I was a kid. What I like most is to hear him singing, and sometimes I write those crazy histories where he is always the main character. Maybe someday I have courage enough to share one of them in this site. I love to whatch "3000 Miles to Graceland", because I think that is the kind of movie Elvis would love to do. Well, I guess this is it. I like so much more to talk about him then about me, of course!

4) Favourite Elvis song Lyrics for
Burning Love

This new feature of our ezine is for karaoke superstars & the fans that just like to sing-along with the King.

Lord Almighty,
I feel my temperature rising
Higher higher
It's burning through to my soul

Girl, girl, girl
You gonna set me on fire
My brain is flaming
I don't know which way to go

Your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love

Ooh, ooh, ooh,
I feel my temperature rising
Help me, I'm flaming
I must be a hundred and nine
Burning, burning, burning
And nothing can cool me
I just might turn into smoke
But I feel fine

Cause your kisses lift me higher
Like a sweet song of a choir
And you light my morning sky
With burning love

It's coming closer
The flames are reaching my body
Please won't you help me
I feel like I'm slipping away
It's hard to breath
And my chest is a-heaving

Lord Almighty,
I'm burning a hole where I lay
Cause your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love
With burning love
Ah, ah, burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

5) Party Planner tips:

"Groovy Ways to Party"

Admit it. Giving a party is one occasion you definitely look forward to.

It is your time to show your prowess at being a good hostess. That is why you must do everything within your means, whether meager or plentiful, to give the best party ever to your friends.

Make your party a hit! Here are some ideas you could use:

? Make a list of all the people you want to invite. Send the invitations and have them confirm their attendance ahead of time. Expect more or less 70% of those people to come!

Visualize the setting. Determine where you will put the tables, the food, the music, etc. For example, if you plan to have a buffet, it would be better to properly strategize the location of the table for the food. It will be a poor decision to make your guests go to the kitchen to get their food. The furniture, too, should not get in the way.

? Plan to prepare more than enough food. It is better to have leftovers than leave your guests resorting to raiding your refrigerator when you run out of food.

? The kind of food you will serve will also depend on the theme of the party. If it is a cocktail party, there should be more drinks and finger foods would do fine. If it is a dinner party, you should serve the best recipes you have.

? It would be good also to have a selection of drinks for your guests. Provide both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks to cater to all your guests. Hire a bartender.

? Set up decorations that are appropriate to the occasion and to your theme. These ornaments should set the mood of the event. Thus they should not be too distracting or too loud. Be tasteful in selecting the color, shapes and materials.

? Do not forget the music. It will be the life of your party. Plan on your audio system ahead of time. Choose also the proper songs. They should generally be gay and lively.

? Have a program if the occasion would allow. Determine how long the event would last and choose the right activities for the event. For example children’s parties should have games but cocktail parties should not!

? You should also consider your budget in every aspect. Make sure you do not go beyond it. Have a to-do list to keep track of what you need.

Just remember the saying, failing to plan is planning to fail. A well planned party will definitely be a great party!

8) Editor’s Notes & Fun Stuff:

Some humour to put a smile on your face!

6 Married men will be dropped on an island

HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THE NEXT PLANNED "SURVIVOR" SHOW??????

6 Married men will be dropped on an island with 1 car and 4 kids each, for 6 weeks.

Each kid plays two sports and either takes music or dance classes.

There is no access to fast food.

Each man must take care of his 4 kids, keep his assigned house clean, correct all homework, complete science projects, cook, do laundry, etc.

The men only have access to television when the kids are asleep and all chores are done.

There is only one TV between them and there is no remote.

The men must shave their legs and wear makeup daily, which they must apply themselves, either while driving or while making four lunches.

They must attend weekly PTA meetings; clean up after their sick children at 3:00 a.m; make an Indian hut model with six toothpicks, a tortilla and one marker; and get a 4 year old to eat a serving of peas.

The kids vote them off the island, based on performance.

The last man wins only if he has enough energy to be intimate with his spouse at a moment's notice.

If the last man does win, he can play the game over and over again for the next 18-25 years — eventually earning the right to be called "Mother!"
