🎤 Elvis Presley vs. Frank Sinatra  vs.  The King of Music on :

Alright, let's get this rockin'!
**Round 1**

**Elvis Presley:** Hound dogs, alright! Folks call me the King, and for good reason. I brought a whole new rhythm to this world. A rhythm that gets the young'uns movin', shakin', and screamin' for more. My music ain't just sound, it's a feeling. Pure electricity. And Frankie, you call yourself the voice? You’re smooth, sure, but have you ever seen a crowd go wild? A hip swivel can get people feeling, and a feelin' changes the world. So tell me Frankie boy, can a voice alone do all that?

**Frank Sinatra:** Elvis, darling, "The Voice" has been called much more than a voice for a reason, but you've been living on love from the teenagers who would be swooning over anybody if their mommy and daddy hadn't chosen for them already! Hound dogs, huh? A real king rules with nuance, finesse, not by shaking his legs around. The only shake you have brought, Presley, is into American family life. Let’s not pretend emotion in my songs can be discounted for a stage trick, kiddo. Class never goes out of style. What will people say after the novelty dies down?
**Round 2**

**Elvis Presley:** Class? Look around, Frankie. The kids are dancing, hearts are beatin', and they ain’t worryin' ‘bout no etiquette books. Your croonin' is fine for supper clubs, but I'm bringin' the thunder! Change doesn't arrive polite! It barges on and kicks things over and I think I'm just in the process of kicking you off the podium Frankie boy! My “shaking legs”, as you so eloquently put it, are bringing joy, giving hope to this new era, son! It’s a revolution of rhythm and freedom! You keep sippin’ martinis while I conquer hearts!

**Frank Sinatra:** Oh, joy and revolution! That is a real joke, darling! That you equate dancing and hip-shaking with such noble ideas... And calling ME "son", really now! All you're revolutionizing, kid, is how fast parents start locking up their daughters! Give them more credit that this shallow swooning, at least. Supper clubs, I’ll have you know, require a depth of talent that teeny-bopper hysterics simply can't cultivate, which is something YOU should try sometimes too. Give yourself credit as well. Talent requires practice, my friend! You can be sure that martinis and all.

**Round 3**

**Elvis Presley:** Talent and practice? I poured my soul into the gospel since I was a boy, sang the blues where hearts break and poverty rules. My mama raised me right, but talent's raw, a gift from above! As for daughters, you underestimate the girls today. It is them, and it’s their passion, making me the king! It isn’t a talent contest. And as for nuance and class…the old rules ain’t got no hold. But you’re preaching to the choir anyway Frankie and choirs usually consist of the dead!
Now is my time. My name is King, they shout that back. It isn't mine so own, so listen for that crowd, and for once try to see yourself outside!

**Frank Sinatra:** Raw talent gets you noticed, Presley, I admit it. A gift it will require to last as long as my carrer... But, without refinement, it is simply potential unfulfilled. Now look where the ' raw passion' leaves us to be... You can be heard and admired to many generations or you become just a phase where women and boys alike thought they were discovering true talent, where, really they just want to let their angst about daddy's over-protective treatment of them or other traumas and frustration from childhood… Don’t confuse being new with being superior, son. That’s a fool’s mistake.

**Round 4**

**Elvis Presley:** Superiority comes when you are on top and can stay on top and what are we even talking about daddy treating girls because who of all the world does know it better, if not you?? Daddy issues huh!! Come back to earth old man. I understand and i admit daddy issues can give talent but you can be talented in every aspects. So talent, i was saying, comes from everywhere Frankie… the choir isn’t all dead after all, is it ? Raw talent can take people far. And a bit of pelvic rotation? History changing in my perspective. Are yours?

**Frank Sinatra:** Oh, Daddy issues! Really. An unnecessary remark, darling. One should be carefull what stones they pick up since everybody knows where this could head. I'm addressing substance, not in the tabloid and superficial details of who I’ve had affairs with which really does a lot with daddy treating his children in the most fair manner as they should have.

I would have assumed it's you being so immature but since the argument revolves around your maturity that is pretty useless I guess, let me explain myself for the third or fourth time now to you... That "pelvic rotation," while eye-catching and maybe memorable for a brief moment to this girls out of any kind of supervision and good behaviour...It’s ephemeral, Elvis. Now, a good story well-told, that's the thing to go!
**Round 5**

**Elvis Presley:** Ephemeral? Look at the records sold, the arenas packed! My name's on everyone's lips, that is not passing. You are seeing right now one in the middle of his youth. You need something to stand out of your age. To still have a chance to be the greatest or remembered more widely you NEED a gimmick... Your "stories," are the music for grown up and I made everybody feel grown again. This daddy has given children to all people who where grown out of being free, you are more of the daddy who never let do what he pleases and think that their own daddy would give all, everything just like me on this stages! I freed up all these people who needed only one things in their life : Elvis and only.
Your the gimmick pal !

**Frank Sinatra:** Hah, records sold and arenas packed do not equate lasting influence darling. As I have explained and as anyone knows, a trend ends. My name may not be screamed so wildly in your ear in your generation for all this screaming going out in shows but its is whispered to those with discerning taste that i consider real human beings in our field not some teenagers you put a spell in. *That* is lasting appeal. Don't you mistake being overdone for freedom. Gimmicks make headlines not history, that is not because something lasts in history you make people think of history instead just that the gimmicks were memorable ! Freedom, son, lies in depth of expression.
**Round 6**

**Elvis Presley:** Okay Sinatra, let's talk "depth of expression". You warble pretty words, but can your music save somebody down in the dumps? Now, don’t play so high society as your beginnings weren’t of the same sort so don’t ever forget where did you came from okay??? I put emotion in it; my voice touches feelings deep down. And these kids get freedom out there because nobody wants them anymore. "trends", you can't measure. But they are. Every trends becomes an act from another trends, which makes something out of themselves so no trend should never disappear. Just get out done.. I bring healing Frankie, and sometimes even with just some dance, dance which isn’t done in any ballet shows in every case of dance that is dance...So in summary you want a proof of success? How about them? Your success against mine is something very weird now that trends aren’t done anymore by only one generation!!!.

**Frank Sinatra:** Saving souls? You think a few pelvic thrusts saves the soul when a whole community gets ruined and corrupted with those sort of attitudes. Darling... Now I’ll never claim to be a Saint, however, let's discuss real emotion! Emotion is something and talent does not always revolve and involves trends ,I just am so popular you need to talk shit about the people's opinion of what "is considered a very cool guy who all wants to party hard" should like..and if all people aren't doing things like having a really rich night without even drinking it is something bad! Emotion that speaks beyond youthful whims, to the timeless sorrows and joys, and beyond fleeting youth and a fleeting gimmick in the new stage!!! And speaking of where my success stands against yours… let’s talk legacy. In your era, with trends where people thought that I should be kicked and left for the dead...but, did this even come out? No darling? So!
**Round 7**

**Elvis Presley:** Legacy! Yes. A legacy lives through influence on how your name goes forward, your spirit, right Frankie?! and every music genres that were born after us still reminds me and still has you. Every note they scream its out! So much "heartache hotels". Heartaches Frankie but its not out when everything gets out of being so conservative ! . That "depth" needs more something because what's depth even really when music needs the same needs the most shallow stuff out! You inspire songwriters that they could never see because you still haven't seen everything and nobody expects and no single song touches so many generations where I have lived . Its called love, or what your calling for and nobody cares!. It moves my hips!. Come out here let's dance at least!. The future that all music needs is something. If anything ,is "that Elvis gimmick ". and not for good things either..

**Frank Sinatra:** Legacy isn't the most selling music you did or do to have an heartake with a lady in an horrible old time period and so on... "Oh I was in that age. How I can relate in that moment oh i remember those days"...
This is why hip moving makes so many views even if with an horrible heart! So this way to sell those albums... Oh and about "every new age that i live" I didn't even ask you darling. Now please go shake in a concert where you don't hear one sound . People will be hearing me long when people don't see Elvis that way . So get a chair .
And stop yelling that a man from the old ages need an example or something else! Be cool in the corner and listen to Sinatra if the mood let's your thoughts relax!!!.
**Round 8**

**Elvis Presley:** Relaxin' ain’t exactly my thing Frankie! A legacy lives if people connect, connect how I did. Now stop talking cause that would imply I would be stopping too! And, so to say again . If I couldn't do nothing than hip dancing than all I'll ever need would hip dancin. Because look for real what did this brought!
We have 2 and an option of 3 now just with something easy going. Now that's talent.
And you see that as the man form " old days", your only just seeing me in some moments instead of looking what my music brought and did. Stop yelling or screaming! If any of those ways of acting made money on their stage Frankie!! I'd be an screammer !. The point ain’t to stop , but instead not.
Is not. Now that should let anyone to relax!!! So maybe I shall see Sinatra listening on my concert sometime . Oh I'd be an honor.. And what's honor I do? I take hip shakings!!.

**Frank Sinatra:** Connections fade too. My voice brings them when their family are not around , when their alone...When someone have some " old fashion traditions"... "Oh oh how old is our time of our parents and great-parents "... A true legacy inspires the deep thinking and what that did, what they achieved and can't stop you to. You did great now . Now stay in there....
Talent ain't easy to have.

The *meaning* is just the talent and it has not fade!. Now relax and stop this endless nonsense you only seem for do... The *moment is the goal itself" "now oh wait. Our dreams". That sounds just and very real Sinatra and i hear that playing where you listen your true family stories... and you will say in time :"yes, elvis was wrong the thing and my parents are so true in so many stuff"! And it ain't being in hip time either and your kids might find those stuff old. I never let things old
Be real!!!!

**Round 9**

**Elvis Presley:** Deep thinking on my dancing hips....ok , now you're the one getting absurdly unreal with yourself on being the most intellectual . Ok so let people think that is not that you are hip thrusting me!! . I gave all the time to my people where did I needed . All I'd needed the most out . When they got down.

My time wasn't exactly " that my time ". And you should know very well where everything were leading from you. I needed to give it time on . A lot and many did were needed from that time when "those days and nights" had passed..

I feel now much old you where with old thinking because no one has more talent on music or dancing and only one , one person only can tell with so big impact it is all the opposite or everything . Now please explain why

My song goes with my lyrics so I could do my way a song or lyric with any dancing styles!!! What can all others do to compete , hip styles!!! Or just dancing normally like anyone would expect !! So,

Give me a time with one chance, if hip style dancing would change nothing but lyrics... Where did it lead. How does even an album did more sells or not .. and the opinion of this person or one like

You. Sinatra ! To show it . The impact....

**Frank Sinatra:** Deep *feeling*. Let’s at least use words that work to explain so they'd get a slight thing on us as their artists , not to mock on a concert about what the other said... You needed? Everyone that didn’t like it could give everything but time if this gives me money what do I even gain more if that did work for some moment in some point!!! I will stay right out this way ok!!! Now I gotta rest and watch that. As some other people want right

If there will just change " those movements ". And this time around if

Only there, and I get what others feels. And it may be one single time in history . It

will not just go right away or on something stupid. It makes or will get an album as 2x
better then Elvis with an hip style or singing something I never heard or liked. But I’m no good ok! Now the whole time, let us do it to be like everyone , and just stop all this things

" this will save so many lives!!!! Omg!! I will love and take

every decision

I'm an person!!!! “ now give

Me my rest!! Let people on every era know for a thing!!!!

Because everything is to love and there, not the movements , how I should’ve love the hip
Things, and to

Rest! Noo!
Give others a hand where their most needed at, and show me so everything gives
Every song some thing better where you don’t move !! Just on an hip style movement!!!!
Be calm!!!! . .
. . Be there with anyone!!! What can people take . Just do anything to me and with that be true
To this

All! Just for the feelings!! Give me an rest. What do you ask
for all to be true..

The talent is one!!!!! Just get the hip on it and there is something of everything!!!!! Just so!!
Be quiet !!
I said no for the last time in all this life
This debate!! Because nothing can bring the
Everything , a real way how. Every thought !! And thought of this day!!! Never I could get hip ever
In just for what I've done! This for all!! Please and only and from one the great ones!!!!! Because how will their thought, go or ever will
**Round 10**

**Elvis Presley:** That’s enough Frankie! You are talking gibberish for real this moment. You've reached a point where are talking about my hip shakes while acting your life's one! Let get yourself. So that shows my lasting all can be heard

My point , as I wanted for get thought to have your opinion.
I brought something I love. Something this people like from how I look but for how that goes on. As to never get said on ever
There
Has an option never thought it would , that did it! You will say: my legacy should rest , so it doesn’t get hated!!!. The feeling, now for the true last
Show is the whole for any music and talent!! Never!! Will bring those moments. The thought, a new album is made just on one!! Hip moment !!! That it’s
So on the only!!!! But
The lyrics go even as all music’s need a word or so, one’s can find, the way. With our
World has the right or thought to make a thing work. The legacy doesn’t never
Let down even the old!!!!!

It has never. Will it now or then?! Get, now you want to hip. All , music !! and love!

Then you have, hip-hop and just those hip’s do! Sinatra’s said for you for what ! Can

Always, hear that it is and will give is an end never to hip never ever !!!!
I would even , and hip! To see a legacy not be
To ever see this moments even be, on all ever

And , from, that never can let on be never or on one of my hip moves. Not as all, that
All. From
Sinatra, what have all to be from! The thoughts . That just from now!!!!!

**(Silence. Perhaps Frank has stormed off, perhaps he’s speechless. Elvis grins, the familiar flash in his eyes).**
