[QUOTE="Tom Tom Club, post: 1987315842, member: 2822"] Yes, Elvis Presley died on 16th August 1977 at the age of only 42 very tragic. I thought that the song "Mama Liked The Roses" by Elvis Presley was appropriate because of the intensely close relationship Elvis Presley had with his very beloved dear mother Gladys Love Smith Presley. It reminded me of the very close relationship Morrissey had with his own mother Elizabeth ('Betty') Anne Dwyer his rock, his best friend, his everything. Gladys Love Smith Presley died tragically at the young age of 46. [ATTACH type="full" alt="images (16).jpg"]58546[/ATTACH] Elvis Presley "Mama Liked The Roses".
