The guitar is just great.

Re: Elvis (the real one)
The fact that it's not bad musically - competently played and sung in the cause of something that has no application outside of the (I assume forgettable, though I confess I've never seen it) movie it came from makes it even worse to me. It's just about the most egregious misuse of such huge and unique talent that I can think of.
It makes me angry to hear 4 minutes of it. Why would I want to listen to 25 albums of it?

Re: Elvis (the real one)
At least as angry as Van Halen makes you, yes.

Re: Elvis (the real one)
Van Halen don’t make me angry. They make me change the station.
I get not enjoying the novelty of Elvis’s movie music. But why get mad about it? It’s all pretty amiable - and to my ears, time has made it all a lot more charming than it ever was in its day.
Decades of oh-so-meaningful poetry notebook rock and shitty dance music rendered it mother’s milk to me.
