I think they are both very influential in their own way. But I would say Elvis. Elvis shaped in a big part and brought back Rock and Roll. His lyrics, actions, and image were very revolutionary for the moment, he drove women mad. The Beatles, while most likely the most known band in history were not so revolutionary. They were very new and hip to US when they came over because the states didn't have the mod vs biker type scene that Britain had in that period. But all of their big accomplishments in the industry were a direct result of influences. They were influenced by the London scene, its very similar to what the Yardbirds sang, they just had more of a following. They then evolved into a more psychedelic sound, then into more introspective lyrics courtesy of Bob Dylan who was without a doubt the most revolutionary icon of the era. I think since they didn't necessarily come up with the concepts, but followed them they cannot be as influential. Elvis's concepts were all his own. Its just a matter of most people knowing the facts.

I have to ask, who, in the world that is 'celebrity', do you think is of a higher social standing. Most of them are complete no-bodies, junkies alkies adulterers, the z-listers who reduce our news papers to gutter rags. They probably dont bother wiping their butts, there no better than us, infact, probably a damn site worse. A bit like the royal family.

It's Elvis Presley.  I saw a concert on television where he showcased tracks from the "Intensive care" album, and when he introduced "Advertising space", he said it was about Elvis.

That's crap.  I just listened to that songs really close, and what juicy j says is "producer". I can't understand the woman but I don't hear lucifer at all. People are always looking for something in music.  Elvis was evil in his time, think about it.

Roger was so hot. He was amzing, by far the most handsome of all four of Queen. When he was sitting behind his drums it was even better, how he is drumming. I like to watch the Wembley 86 DVD and then the Roger Cam :). As much Roger as possible. Now he is indeed less handsome, although he lost a lot of weight for the European tour. I've some pictures were he looks very hot again. But later in the American tour he gained weight again :(. And he looks less attractive again. Though if you have seen him in his white outfit singing these are they days of our lives, I can say he still is a very good looking guy. Too bad he has this girlfriend called Sabrine Potgieter or something like that. I know a lot of Queen fan girls are big fans of him and dreamt being with him.

That's a pretty good one, but I think John Lennon is better. It's not that I know it for a fact, but I bet more people would think so just due to name recognition.

LZ, for sure.  Queen had a couple good hits.  LZ stands the test of time.

Fishbone-It made me explore more ska-based music. I was already familiar with reggae, soca, and calypso (courtesy of my dad-he listened to it religiously), but didn't start listening to ska until I heard Fishbone. I then went out and started buying ska albums (including stuff by Ska revivalists the Specials, Selecter, etc.) by artists such as Prince Buster and the Skalites!

Freddie Mercury.  He was very unique, also i think he was a perfectionist.  His band was, and still is great. I loved Bohemian Rhapsody.  Another one bites the dust. We will rock you. A crazy little thing called love.  I thought he was a great performer.  Freddie was born to be on stage. I also thought he was a beautiful man.  I thought he was magnetic.\nI just loved his voice.  I loved his appearance.

I was a student at King's College, London, many years ago. Probably there is not much difference, but they are possibly more disciplinarian? Of course students are always 'lively people' the World over.There is not so much emphasis on success-certainly there is much hard studying involved. The ethnic makeup of the British population has changed much over the years.

Ditch this special relationship claptrap, theres no nead for us ordinaries to be influenced by the political machinations of self-serving power-hungry nincompoops (sorry I just love using that word...).  I'm British and I have nothing but love for my septic bretheren.  They gave us Jazz, Elvis, Hendrix, WWII etc.  \n\nSeriously though, the real Americans I know are wonderful people, if a bit keen on everything and I really hope that someday they'll realise what a dreadful mistake they made in declaring independence from us. \n\nI love America too, but before I trade in Blighty for the New World, they've got to get rid of the death penalty, TV evalgelism, rubbish cars (and drive on the left), "We're No.1!", McDonalds and most importantly that pillock in the White House.

i think that Elvis' opinion shouldve been good because Elton John discovered Elvis and made him famous

Interesting but Elvis was an original and I think he'd still want to look that way.

Love Me Tender - Elvis Presley or Norah Jones\n\nPersonally, I like Norah Jones version better.

Who cares? Seriously why do some people care about celebrities lives so much? Are their lives so boring they need to intrude on other peoples lives. ANother thing that bothers me is the tabloids that start retarded rumors like LIdsey lohan and tom cruise's baby was abducted by elvis and his martians.
