Got this video last night from Tim, (Mr. Stefani) and absolutely loved it. Elvis and Lisa Marie's duet of the song In The Ghetto.

Elvis did alright by himself on this song!

Never said he didn't. I just thought I would share this too because it's good, and I thought Elvis and Lisa fans would enjoy it.

Before I saw this video, I thought Lisa Marie would be a little girl singing with her daddy.

Sorry I didn't make that more clear Steffy.

I love this collaboration more and more every time I watch it. Iv'e probably watched it atleast 10 times already. I know, I know, I have no life. lol! Seriously though, the video is so powerful. Just seeing Lisa Marie and her dad singing together is so touching. Also seeing Lisa with a tear going down her face, as well as the video showing guns lying next to little babies. Powerful powerful stuff!

Hi Brad:

Dont you think this video is kind of manipulative? I mean, come on, babies with guns?
This song was always sad but this video makes it seem hopeless.

I'll be honest with you dakert, I really don't find it all that manipulative, I just think it's a good portrayel of what children who are from the ghetto usually end up being. I'm white, and live in a neighborhood that is mostly filled with hispanics. The sad reality is that many of the people who grow up in the ghetto usually turn to gangs, and violence, because there is nothing else for them. The schools suck, there are no places to go that give children things to do after school, their choices are limited, and that is why so many of them turn to gangs. We have had many gang fights in the middle of our streets, and my neighborhood is not even close to as bad as neighborhoods in Compton, and places like that. If there's this much violence here in Portland, Oregon, then I can only imagine how bad it must be in ghettos in California, New York, and other big cities. And you know what, even if there is some manipulation in this video, so what. Most movies, music, and tv shows these days manipulate things. It's not just music. I totally respect your opinion dakert, and I'm in no way trying to upset you, we just happen to disagree on this subject.
