Elvis Presley
Elvis Aaron Presley
(January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977), also known mononymously as Elvis, was an American singer and actor.
Regarded as one of the most significant cultural icons of the 20th century, he is often referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll" or simply "the King".
Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi, and relocated to Memphis, Tennessee with his family when he was 13 years old.
His music career began there in 1954, recording at Sun Records with producer Sam Phillips, who wanted to bring the sound of African-American music to a wider audience.
Presley, on rhythm acoustic guitar, and accompanied by lead guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black, was a pioneer of rockabilly, an uptempo, backbeat-driven fusion of country music and rhythm and blues.
In 1955, drummer D. J. Fontana joined to complete the lineup of Presley's classic quartet and RCA Victor acquired his contract in a deal arranged by Colonel Tom Parker, who would manage him for more than two decades.
Presley's first RCA single, "Heartbreak Hotel", was released in January 1956 and became a number-one hit in the United States.
With a series of successful network television appearances and chart-topping records, he became the leading figure of the newly popular sound of rock and roll.
His energized interpretations of songs and sexually provocative performance style, combined with a singularly potent mix of influences across color lines during a transformative era in race relations, made him enormously popular—and controversial.
In November 1956, Presley made his film debut in "Love Me Tender".
Drafted into military service in 1958, Presley relaunched his recording career two years later with some of his most commercially successful work.
He held few concerts however, and guided by Parker, proceeded to devote much of the 1960s to making Hollywood films and soundtrack albums, most of them critically derided.
In 1968, following a seven-year break from live performances, he returned to the stage in the acclaimed television comeback special "Elvis", which led to an extended Las Vegas concert residency and a string of highly profitable tours.
In 1973, Presley gave the first concert by a solo artist to be broadcast around the world, "Aloha from Hawaii".
Years of prescription drug abuse severely compromised his health, and he died suddenly in 1977 at his Graceland estate at the age of 42.
Presley is the best-selling solo artist in the history of recorded music.
He was commercially successful in many genres, including pop, country, blues, and gospel.
He won three competitive Grammys, received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award at age 36, and has been inducted into multiple music halls of fame.

30 Minute Love Affair
" 30 Minute Love Affair" is a song performed by English recording artist Paloma Faith.
It was released on 10 August 2012, by RCA Records, as the second single from her second studio album" Fall to Grace"( 2012).
The song was written by Faith and Chris Braide, while Nellee Hooper produced it.
Faith explained that the concept of the song is based on a real- life encounter she had with a busker when she was fourteen.
The singer said that she wanted the song to have a similar feel of freedom and escape that the 2011 film" Drive" evokes.
The artwork for the song was released on 3 July 2012.
The music video, which was directed by Emil Nava and filmed at the Clapham Grand, was released on 9 July.
It shows Faith performing" 30 Minute Love Affair" in a Soho strip club and enjoying a brief relationship with another man, following an argument with her boyfriend.
" 30 Minute Love Affair" has received mostly positive attention from critics and it reached a peak position of number 50 on the UK Singles Chart.
'65 Love Affair
"< nowiki >'65 Love Affair</ nowiki>" is a song performed by Paul Davis on his album" Cool Night".
Released in 1982, the song hit# 6 for two weeks on the" Billboard" Hot 100 in May 1982.
It spent 20 weeks on the chart, and on the" Billboard" Year- End Hot 100 chart, it placed at# 39, and on" Cashbox's" chart at# 60.
This song marked Davis's second single release upon his departure from Bang Records to Arista, the first being" Cool Night".
The style of"' 65 Love Affair" was reminiscent of such blue- eyed soul groups as Hall& Oates, a vein that Davis had not explored before.
Davis had originally titled the song"' 55 Love Affair", but Arista felt that some modernization was needed to target an audience whose teenage years had occurred in the 1960s, including Davis himself.
As Arista pointed out, Davis was only 7 years old in 1955, too young for any meaningful" love affair", but was 17 years old in 1965, perfect for the song.
Davis's previous hits had been country- oriented or ballads.
The format change to pop proved to be quite marketable.
"'65 Love Affair" and" Cool Night", which were recorded at the same time, ranked first and third in terms of his Hot 100 peaks(" I Go Crazy" ranked second).
In spite of this popular success, Davis was so disgusted with the commercialized result that he opted out of his contract with Arista and signed with Razor& Tie Record Company, a label on which Davis never charted on the Hot 100.
The music video is composed entirely of news archives from the year 1965, including footage of then US President Lyndon Johnson, the Vietnam War, and the Watts riots.
