71Some Elvis Facts And History You May Not Know
Everyone remembers Elvis Presley's song " Hound Dog " but I bet you didn't know it never got to number 1. In fact it barely broke into the top 20.
When Elvis was buried he had a eternal flame at his grave just like President Kennedy but a few years after his death the flame went out and it was never relit.
Thats Alright Mama was the first song Elvis recorded that was played on the radio. He recorded it with Sammy Moore and Bill Black and famous Memphis Radio DJ Dewey Phillips made history by playing it and the song on the flip side " Blue Moon Of Kentucky " all night long. Many people say it was Phillips who really helped to push Elvis' Career along.
I bet you didn't know that Elvis' favorite foods were Peanut Butter and Bannana Sandwiches fried in Butter , Bacon Fried Crisp and Corn Bread and Milk. He was very simple in the foods he ate and was real picky about who prepared his meals. He rarely ate out instead prefering his food to be cooked by his family or closest friends.

Some More Elvis Presley Trivia
The U.S. FBI has over 600 files on Elvis Presley and have always refused to reveal any of it. The reason is they say the files are vital to National Security. Come on now what could Elvis possibly have to do with National Security.
Elvis was only 12 years old when he got his first guitar. It was a birthday present for his 12th birthday and the rest is history.
One of the first things Elvis bought when he really started making money was a pink cadilac for his mother. He later bought many Cadilacs , Pick Up Trucks and etc for his friends.
Many of Elvis' close friends believe Elvis knew in advance that his death was near. He gave several friends near the end special gifts and told them he was going to see his Mama soon.
Elvis always really wanted to be normal said one time close friend and Memphis Mafia member Red West. Elvis always wished he could just go for a walk down the street and be left along but that was not to be,

Some Strange Elvis Trivia
As Elvis became more famous , he came to believe that he was no ordinary person. For one thing he believed he could look at clouds in the sky and make them move. You could not say the wind was moving them or he became angry.
Communing With The Dead
One of the stranger things Elvis liked to do was to go to the Funeral Home that had prepared his mothers body and sleep there on a couch they had or at times just set there quitely all night long until the sun was coming up/ He truly believed that his mothers spirit was there with him and he could often be heard talking to her.
At The Pool
Elvis Presley enjoyed setting around the pool eating watermelon. For entertainment he would float light bulbs in the pool and shoot them.
On His Way To Meet Nixon
On his way to meet Richard Nixon at the White House Elvis insisted they stop at a Doughnut Shop he saw along the way. He bought two dozen glazed doughnuts and ate them all on the short drive to the White House.

With respect, for Mr. Presley:
“ELVIS STRIKES BACK!.”.
One of the Premiere Films I vision following thumbling through “ELVIS BY THE PRESLEYS;” by the Editor Mr. David Ritz; I find the bold American style and on August 16, 1977; I knew the media combined lied regarding your passing away.!
The 'Memphis Press-Scimitar' on the following day as revealed in this award winning true account of the great Gospel sage and Rock Performance; my need then was as is today a successful career in field investigation, sir!
It remains well the age of the Fuhrer of rhythm and folk, blues plus Oriya; began his Career in singing on the year 1941 and reported by the Federal Bureau Of Investigation; and confirmed authentic by rehearsal and birth Certifying 19 as his age and born remarkably on February 18th, 1936; the proof that Mr. Presley died is heresy; a Mr. Presley owns a Colt® 1944; not a Ukrainian Barretta; (p. 9). I-kon the photograph (p. 30-31); the Strata-caster, is really now in the Smithsonian Museum in Austin, Texas, so why does not his kin own this valuable 'tar!!?
In TRIBUTE: Please as loving fans for the Matador of presentation and reach; consider an overview of how the media lied; for proof; Mr. Elvis Presley's mother is not shown together, rather; a humorist and polite lady
Aunt Gladys is Elvis' honey girl.! An Uncle Vernon, from Edmonton, Alberta; and proven with a
Social Insurance Number (S.I.N.); 622-116-212; and with permission; one great gab; and true as a Canadien Confederate sailing to the U.S. for aide; and according to the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (C.I.A.); the reason, the media is misleading, all who view and see a lie perpetuating; and as a media Graduate lead by the prestigious Director Mr. Waldorf Adam West of the then two year Advertising & Public Relations Program. Mr. West Colleagued with Mr. Richard (Dick) Zwicker who Dictated 'hard core' journalism; always smiled and with undo recourse, challenged the 'media' way.!
-2-, Mr. Alex (Big Al') Simon. FOR ELVIS FANS, ONLY..
With an affable Ms Leslie Howard-Stafford; she never yelled like a Texan in Alberta with his great looking wife or gal; the point is love is always looking well and minding your manners; and with Texas … it means a kool, song, and now here's one (I was kidding about yelling loud in 'Big-Rig'; and …
“AND YOU'RE NEVER
ALONE IN
TEXAS!”
“ON HILL-BILLY BLUES;
“THE WAY SHE SEE'S;
THAT'S WAY SHE LOVES, ME;
LIKE THE BLUE MOON,
PALE AND LONELY;
BIG RIVER; MIGHTY,
HIGH; I RIDE THROUGH,
THE VALLEY, AND I HEAR,
HER SONG; A MELODY,
HER HAIR, LONG AND FREE,
JULIE ANNE SINGS AND YOU'RE
NEVER ALONE IN TEXAS!
YOUR NEVER ALONE IN TEXAS!,
THE RYE IS BROWN AND THE STALK IS BLUE,
THE LINCOLN CONTINENTAL,
IS OWNED BY ME; SHE WAVES HELLO;
I DRIVE IN TO EL PASO HEADING TO AUSTIN,
THROUGH DALLAS; SHE SMILES CALM; AND,
WE SING TOGETHER, 'TILL, WE MAKE LOVE;
FOREVER TOGETHER ALONG WITH MOM,
AND DAD AND A PUPPY I CALL TOM.”
