By the time I came back, the stars in my eyes had turned to tears and the trust had been replaced by heartbreak, anger, resentment and confusion.

You have to love "Heartbreak Hotel," even if the man next to you is being an idiot, and poses next to the car in a mock Elvis stance that's more embarrassing than funny. It's just a great song. The guy thinks he's the life of the party. In the open back seat of the limo is a shirt and flashy fender guitar. Never played. Never worn...
