Elvis: cultural thief and racist, or "I'd like to teach the world to sing" touchy-feely breaker-down of barriers?

Compare and contrast.

Oh, c'mon. At least it isn't "Elvis, dead or alive?"

McCartney: clone or impostor?

"evil appropriator of and profiteer from black music" or "greatest singer ever". I'm up for a bit of both

Absolutely.

I also loved that pagan deity thing. The evidence is pretty compelling. The supposed Jesus parallels, in fact, just mirror the things the christians nicked from paganism (resurrection, etc).
