Frank or Elvis? For me, it's Frank
I'll take the guy with hits that people remember
brootal
>>132006020So Sinatra
>>132005930I'll take the manufactured product
Elvis would say Roy Orbison
The guy from the Ink Spots
Morissey
the gap between Elvis and his peers/imitators is far wider than Frank's
>>132006301+1
>>132006322Frank came from an era that turned out crooners like sausages. Elvis wasn’t the only rockabilly but even in that field he was extremely distinct.
>>132006301Morrissey is just both of them combined
>>132005930Elvis wrote his six greatest hits. Everything Frank did was just a cover.
kd lang
>>132005930I listened to these two Franks recently and zero Elvis
>>132005930The original king of pop
>>132005930Elvis is too black-sounding for me.
>>132008301>Elvis>writing his own musicLolHis manager basically forced the execs to give Elvis cowriting creditsPretty based desu
>>132010849people pretend that this was some great unfairness.it really just represents the fact it's hard to divvy up the pie on intellectual property so the systems they come up with can't adjust for all the unique situations.songwriters get an ungodly cut on royalties, so the huge cut songwriters got didn't fairly represent why kids were buying the new Elvis record. It was obviously because E was singing, not because they loved whatever dreck the songwriter came up with.
>>132011404Elvis was a great performerHe didn't write anything thoughNothing wrong with it
>>132005930nobody beats the king
>>132005930ElvisFrank Sinatra was just Bad Bunny for wops.
>>132005930where’s the people crying about botspam threads? Oh, oh no we don’t do that on the white stuff huh? So this is music to ya’ll huh? This is what it’s all about. Sinatra, Elvis. Big and White huh. MUH WHYTE PRYDE!! MUH ELVIS. I got a question tho. How is Elvis dancing and jerking like a weirdo any different than black girls twerking?? Ahhh, the irony…
>>132012153
>>132012153Lol
>>132012153Elvis twerking
>>132010584The original black guy that your racist grandparents were chill with
>>132012265everyone loves nat
>>132012550partially because he died early so didn't really have the chance to get old and make shitty music
>>132012562Nat's 60s output was already kind of declining in quality so I don't think things would have gotten better.
>>132012562we'll never know i guess, although all of Sarah Vaughan's albums were pretty good all the way to her last ones in the 80s
>>132005930We got apples and pears here. Elvis is of a different generation than Sinatra while usually playing a completely different genre. I don't recall Sinatra ever bringing out a series of Rock 'n Roll hits, no?
