are u ever just sad??

hi! i do understand you.. being a fan of a person really grabs a big part of your life specially if you really idolize him. but drop it. it will not help you at all.. many things are more important today. so get up and fix it.

You know...sometimes you need to do that so you get those feelings out...I know what you mean about Elvis....I even did the trek to Graceland etc....I still have a video of his last concert in Hawaii...it was so sad the way it ended...but today I am sure is better! At least I hope you are having a better day!

You're not being ridiculous. His music meant a lot to you.

No you arent being silly we all know that you are a major fan of Elvis probably the biggest fan I know and I guess its just your way of comemorating this icon.I know you will be ok though as you are one tough broad lol ,so everyone has their vulnerablities exposed from time to time ,nothing i swrong with that .Maybe though you should stop listening to teh cds for a while though.Have a great night though Antique

I just get sad sometimes too. I hate those days. I can see why it would bring you down to hear the music and watch the shows. It was a time past and when I look back on certain things..I get sad too. take care Jo and hollar at that guy next door..he'll bring those spirits up smelling all nice..hehe

One cannot be sad without a course. Either something emotinal might have caused it. and i dont go angry like that.mine too has a limit.

I have had days when I was just sad, usually from too much stress.On the other hand, it is legitimate that you should be sad about Elvis and what he represented in your life. It just shows you how human you are, that his music and life touched your life.

Altho I am not the fan my daughtr is . I did watch alot of his movies yesterday. and they played some of his music at the casino we went to all in all it was a pretty good day to celebrate his birthday!

I'm sorry your are missing your teen idol. I was broken up after John Lennon was murdered, but I will probably be worse when Paul McCartney or David McCallum die. Yeah, listening to his music isn't helping - I hope you quit!

I know how you feel. Sometimes when I listen to old songs I get emotional too over other things and in your case, it's the segment on the late Elvis special which evoked certain emotions in you. I'm sure you will be fine after a good cry, try ... it helps sometimes. Sometimes, there's just no reason for our sudden emotions. Whenever I go through a bad mood phase, I'll be alright after a few days.

Every one is allowed to feel sorry for themselves sometimes espeically if a memory gets a jolt.Elvis had an effect on people that no one before or since has had,You are not alone in your feelings as millions of Elvis fans world wide feel the same.You will always have his music Jo ,Just don't be to sad for to long.And no you are not riduculous at all.love sue.xx

I don't think you're being ridiculous at all. I'm sure a lot of people have felt the same way you have. I was a big fan of his when I was younger but as I got older, there were so many others that I learned to like better. Like so many others, though, I appreciate him more now that he is gone. I listen to his songs and watch his movies more now. As a matter of fact, I saw "Flaming Star" on the western channel the other night. That was one of my favorite Elvis movies. I hope you are feeling better now. Kathy.

they were sad for me too i cried if he was my family and did for months ever time i heard one of his songs.blue christmas still does it to me.i don't think it is ridiculous. i bet it is a lot of people still feel the same way

No, you are not being ridiculous---i'm having a bad day with tear too. Elvis was the king of rock and roll and an great part of lives in those days. Losing him so tragically tore our hearts out and left us feeling cheated at the very least. I do understand.

No, you are not being ridiculous! I get to feeling this way sometimes too. It happens when I watch an old movie or TV show. I see how young the ppl were and how I know that many of them are no longer alive and I get to feeling sad. Elvis was from my Dad's era and so I don't necessarily feel that way when I think about him, but I can understand why you would feel that way.

hi antiquelady, Yeah, i understand what you feel and although I have born during his time I do know about him through reading his biography and other wonderful stories of his musical career. He is one of a kind and his style is still unmatched even today. No one could ever replace the legend for sure his memory would always remain never forgotten. Well, don;t ever quit listening to his song as through his song he comes alive..I do have cd of his christmas album and have like it best especially the song dedicated for all mother entitled" Mama liked the Roses", they are very emotional and full of meaning.Have a nice day!.

No, you're not being ridiculous. You're being human. It seems to me that most of us over 60 have some sad days when something reminds us that our youth is gone. You actually did better than I did. I saw that there was going to be a special on Elvis to commemorate his birthday and I couldn't bring myself to watch it. I knew it would make me sad. He was also a big part of my growing up years.
