Few artists are able to transcend generations with their work. To be able to do so requires a combination of talent and enduring charisma that will continue to enthrall listeners for decades to come. Of course it helps when parents influence their kids too.
In terms of immortality, the man named Elvis Presley may very well be the “King” of legends.
In many ways, the man is still very much alive today as he was six-seven decades ago. He has millions of fans all over the planet from the elderly to toddlers. Yes, toddlers.
Like this two-year old princess in her car seat. Her name is Florence.
Sunglasses on and just chilling in the car, she just sits back and sings along to “The King of Rock and Roll“.
The song is “Good Luck Charm” and she is feeling it!
It was in late February of 1962 when the song came out.
Still, it endures to this day, even catching the attention of this adorable toddler.
In typical toddler blabber, Florence pours her heart into her singing,
“Don’t want a four leaf clover
Don’t want an old horse shoe
Want your kiss ’cause I just can’t miss
With a good luck charm like you”
She even jams along to the intro! The tiny lady goes, “Uh huh!” just like the King himself.
What’s really admirable is how, at her age, she is able to sing along to the melody with the right tempo and all the right pauses. Now I don’t know about you but it seems like she’s got musical talent just waiting to be unleashed.
Elvis recorded the song on the evening of October 15, 1961 at RCA’s Studio B in Nashville, Tennessee.
He is the best-selling solo music artist of all time, unbelievably successful in different genres including country, pop, adult contemporary, and gospel. He began his music carer in 1954 when he and his family moved to Memphis, Tennessee. From then on, he took off.
Elvis learned to play the guitar at 11. His talents were innate and natural as he could play and sing by ear requiring no formal classes or training.
Looks like this two year old may follow suit. No nursery rhymes here, no silly children’s songs. Give her Elvis!
“Come on and be my little good luck charm
Uh-huh huh, you sweet delight
I want a good luck charm
a-hanging on my arm
To have, to have, to hold, to hold tonight”
She’s quite the showstopper too. After one of the verses, Florence pauses and drops her voice all while slightly lifting up her sunglasses revealing her lovely eyes as she proceeded to the chorus.
We’d love to hear her other renditions from “The King”. She looks to be a tad bit lazy here but imagine if she’s all energetic when doing so. Florence eventually gets tired and her mom is more than happy to let her daughter rest.
Thank you very much, Florence!
