"The Next Best Thing" - WTF?
So I'm watching this show, where people impersonate famous folks, and the ten finalists are all quite good. They have two (count 'em TWO) Elvises in the top ten. Whateva. I really wanted either Frank Sinatra or Little Richard to win, but who got the top spot? One of the Elvises! I mean, Jeezus, like there aren't enough g-d Elvis impersonators in the world! Come ON! :eyes:

1. Elvis is everywhere.
Elvis is everything.
Elvis is everybody.
Elvis is still the King.
Elvis is everywhere!

4. I think it is
The guy who owns American Idol also owns Elvis now. I have heard they are going to be doing an Elvis Idol show. Don't bother me none. :)

5. Elvis is Dead
Elvis is Dead - Living Colour

Tabloids scream
Elvis seen at a shopping mall
Thats the kind of talk
That makes my stomach crawl

Picture a zombie elvis
In a tacky white jump suit
Just imagine a rotting elvis
Shopping for fresh fruit

You cant cause

Chorus:
Elvis is dead
Elvis is dead
Elvis is dead
Elvis is dead
Elvis is dead
Elvis is dead
Elvis is dead
Elvis is dead

When the king died
He was all alone
I heard that when he died
He was sitting on his throne

Alas poor elvis
They made us know you well
Now you dwell forever
In the heartbreak hotel

Chorus

Elvis was a hero to most
But thats beside the point
A black man taught him how to sing
And then he was crowned king

The pelvis of elvis
Too dangerous for the masses

They cleaned him up and sent him to vegas
Now the masses are his slave
Slave? slave
Yes, even from the grave

Elvis is dead

Ive got a reason to believe
We all wont be received at graceland
Ive got a reason to believe
We all wont be received at graceland
Ive got a reason to believe
We all wont be received at graceland
Ive got a reason to believe
We all wont be received at graceland

6. There were a lot of good ones that have been eliminated.
The first few episodes were very entertaining. They have since cut some of my favorite ones.

8. The guy who did W was also very good
That magic trick with the girl doing Paris Hilton was cute. When she said, "Oh no! I made the president disappear!" and everyone cheered. LOL
