...remastered from originals, hit the racks: "Elvis 56" (documenting his miracle music year), "Heart and Soul" (a collection of ballads), "Can't Help Falling in Love" (numbers from Elvis' movies) and "Great Country Songs." These follow the September release of the CD "Elvis: 30 #1 Hits," which ruled the Billboard chart for weeks - Presley's 10th top-ranked album in 47 years! OK, so in 1987 RCA issued "The Number One Hits," and that one contained only 18 songs. So they had to raid other lists besides Billboard's to pad it out. So who's going to kvetch about...

If there had been a Best Crossover Act at the MTV Awards, he would have had a lock on it. As it happens, he had to be satisfied with three of those ungainly trophies - Best Album (for The Eminem Show), Best Male and Best Hip-Hop Artist...

...marketed ourselves as when applying here. As Walter says of Donny in The Big Lebowski: “You’re like a child that wanders into the middle of a movie!” We’re Donny, folks.
