A Little Less Elvis

After digging the Las Vegas theme all season, I finally got around to downloading the full version of the song-- a remix of Elvis Presley's A Little Less Conversation. Now the damn thing's stuck in my head. And not just the groovy Elvis lyrics, but the rhythmic instrumental intro. I swear, someone could make a bundle by coming up with a pill that clears your head of persistent song memes.

Oh, and a posthumous tip of the hat to the King for blazing his own trail through the English language to give us the five-syllable "satisfactioning"-- without which the entire song would crumble.
