Edge of Reality
Elvis Presley
From Live a Little, Love a Little
1968

From Jones & X.Ray...

Check out the visuals for this oddly appealing song. It is *mighty* awesome, especially with the coordinated dancing and pastel suit...

I'm not a particular fan of Elvis, however with regards this track I can understand the appeal; I think I prefer the Elvis of Edge of Reality, Suspicious Minds, Always On my Mind- Yes, sad ballads of loss. Go me.


Seriously odd fuller-length clip here (hello talking dog)

The song is good but the video is compelling due to the bright colours, repetition and mirroring of Elvis. In my Evil Masterplan File (i.e. my head!) I would like to re-enact this video with me in the slim-cut baby blue suit, with male dancers replacing the women, but perhaps it would still work with girls? I would have to work on my long stare... but i'd quite like to do that...

I think this idea is related to my Mr. Orange re-enactment, that thing I still want to do but will never get round to doing because I put too many barriers in the way... Sigh.

"Dark shadows follow me..."
