There have been many accolades uttered about Elvis' talent and performances through the years, all of which I agree with wholeheartedly. I shall miss him dearly as a friend. He was a warm, considerate and generous man.

Never yawn in front of a lady.

When I sing, I believe. I'm honest. If you want to get an audience with you, there's only one way. You have to reach out to them with total honesty and humility.

There are moments when it's too quiet. Particularly late at night or early in the mornings. That's when you know there's something lacking in your life. You just know.

I'm just a singer, Elvis was the embodiment of the whole American culture.

As you may know, I have many good friends in the press who, unfortunately, have thus far refused to identify themselves and go public.

I want to be buried with a Zippo, a roll of dimes & a bottle of Jack!
