As requested, here’s your SellersAskSellers chance to weigh in on the greatest debate of the 20th century!

1. Are you a fan of Elvis? Favorite song(s)?
2. Are you a fan of the Beatles? Favorite song(s)?
3. You can only pick one: Elvis or Beatles

I’ll go first:

  1. Yes! All Shook Up, Always on My Mind, Blue Christmas
  2. Yes! Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Baby You’re a Rich Man, Here Comes the Sun, Ob la di, Eight Days a Week, I Am the Walrus, and on and on…
  3. Beatles!

If you wanted to really fire up the crowd you could do an Elvis versus The Beatles and see all the young pups wondering who they are… :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp:

  1. Yes! Jailhouse Rock; Blue Suede Shoes; Can’t Help Falling In Love; Return To Sender; Hound Dog; Suspicious Minds; Burning Love; My Way and on and on…

  2. Yes! I Want To Hold Your Hand; Let It Be; When I’m Sixty Four; Hello, Goodbye; Imagine; Eight Days a Week; Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band; Hey, Jude and on and on…

  3. As it is a virtual tie, @ least to my way of thinking, I’m going to have to send the prize elsewhere.

Will the Yardbirds do? :upside_down_face:

Which version? Clapton, Beck, Page, or the other guy whose name I can never remember?

As for Elvis vs. Beatles, I have to go with Beatles. I like some of Elvis’ early stuff, not so much the later; whereas the Beatles started out good and just got better (for the most part).

There’s nothing better than this and it happened before I was born (1 year)…

ETA - Just got the chills listening to this for the first time in a year or 2…

I dated a girl whose name is Kitten Kahane (very briefly) when at UCLA.

Anyway her dad was a comedian who opened for Elvis for 5+ years.

I did not know any of this at the time. Only years later did I learn that at a concert in 1976 he sang Happy Birthday to her from the stage.

Imagine having Elvis sing Happy Birthday to you.

Wow!!!

The only song I like and ever listen to from either of
these performers is “The Long And Winding Road” by the Beatles.

That song is cool and actually demonstrated some thought and talent.

All of the rest of it like “In The Ghetto” or “I Am The Walrus” are just
mediocre results of drugs and peanut butter and banana sandwiches
They never make my play list.
