How'd you get into Elvis Presley? How old were you?
My dad is a huge Elvis fan, so I heard his music while I was growing up (I was born early 90โ€™s). It wasnt until about 2 years ago I got back into it and now Iโ€™m hooked. My kids love him too and constantly sing along when we have his music on. I love that the love for the king is going down generations in my family. More on reddit.com
