Elvis
Overall rating: 
The article "Elvis" talks about music, it has been released by Donald Jones.
Elvis Presley is considered by many as one of the most influential singers of the past century. There is little doubt that he was a musical hero to many popular singers as they rose to higher levels in their own careers.
Elvis had a twin brother who died shortly after birth, a devoted alcoholic mother, a father who served time in prison, an impoverished background, a mafia-like clan of close friends, a beautiful wife, and a penchant for legalized drugs.
He was able to communicate effectively with his fans through his many songs and movies.
Elvis had a unqiue voice and singing style and say he was a spirtual person who represented, believe it or not, the goodness in moral values.
Elvis
He entered this world but to be deprived
Through conscious mind as a twinless twin;
A child then teen driven with mother's pride
To defeat daily taunting and chagrin.
His character mold based on poverty
Provided persuasion by song and verse;
He revealed true meaning of liberty
While elite declared he a wicked curse.
Modern lifestyle assured he'd not bypass
Drug induced pain and sinful temptations;
But with early death, he seemed to amass
Rightful honour and esteemed ovations.
His words should be played on neon marquee,
"I'm just the singer who wanted to be."
