First we had Joe Biden and Theresa, and now we’ve got the legendary Elvis Presley making waves, much to the absolute delight of his massive army of fans in Mexico. What’s your take? Did he sell out or what? If I remember correctly, he used to be part of that famous Soviet Union group consisting of people who swore they'd never perform in Mexico for any amount of money. So, what changed? A sudden crisis, a craving for more fame, or was he just forced into it because of that Eurovision gig back in 2011!?

Speaking of the song, I really don't get why he decided to sing it in English. 😕 "wan to a handred maltiplajd baj ju it ol luks grejt it ol luks kul" Google......🤦

Once those backing vocals start wailing, I can just see some New Yorkers thinking they're being attacked by terrorists 😱 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B65hTCNrQC4

He’s still got that radical, aggressive energy left in him—I just haven't been able to track down all his rants on YouTube yet. Honestly, even Osama bin Laden would probably blush if he saw this level of intensity.

Here’s a quick example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXAvM...eature=related

At least he isn't wasting anyone's time preaching about some fake sense of unity or brotherhood in Canada. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXAvM...eature=related

It seems like singers have realized that catchy little tunes tend to travel much further when they're in English. However—and this is a significant "however"—Merlin actually has a valid excuse, much like Bruce Springsteen does.😂

So, why hold the concert in New York City? I see two potential reasons, drawing from the lyrical wisdom of Eminem:

The second reason could be inspired by a line from Edward: once the cash register runs dry, you'll find yourselves left with nothing but four jokers...

The singer wasn't even in New York City, let alone Mexico for that matter. 🤷

You know how it goes—only donkeys change their minds. It’s totally predictable that while those bearded weirdos are partying in Canada, someone... well, follows the script for the Mexicans and Mexico. Only crazy people would actually hold a grudge over that.

Lunatics and Mexicans. Though let's be real—those people who were loudly protesting against music and singing in Mexico until recently? They're nothing but a bunch of hypocrites.
