"In The Ghetto" by Eilert Pilarm

 

In many ways, Swedish Elvis Presley impersonator Eilert Pilarm is an inspiration.

Want to be an Elvis impersonator while looking absolutely nothing like Elvis?  Go for it!

Want to emulate Elvis while not sounding like him?  Have at it!

What if you not only can't sing like Elvis, but, by universal minimum standards, can't really sing at all?  Get out there!

Whatever lofty goals you set for yourself, reach for them!  Because, chances are, you'll be better in your endeavor than Pilarm is in his.

Friendly reminder : You do not have to watch a YouTube video all the way through.
