Elvis "Promised Land". (rockabilly)

Elvis was my older sister's idol. I was too much of a headbanger for such mellow crooning, plus he was everything I was not, hanging around with J Edgar and such.
When I got older I discovered he actually had a real hard rock n roll side to him. He was still a jerk.

"Trump made the bold claim in a Truth Social post responding to multiple high-profile artists pulling out of the government-sponsored Freedom 250 concert series on the National Mall. After artists like Bret Michaels and Marvin "Young MC" Young dropped out citing concerns over the event's political nature, Trump stated he might cancel the concerts and headline the celebration himself:The Boast: He referred to himself as "the Number One Attraction anywhere in the World" and "the man who gets much larger audiences than Elvis in his prime, and he does so without a guitar".The Reaction: His representatives announced plans for Trump to deliver a "major speech" to kick off the "America is Back" rally on the National Mall."
