Resurrection wish list
 
Elvis came top in the list famous people we would like to see brought back from the dead!

The top 10 personalities:
1. Elvis Presley (23%)
2. Princess Diana (20%)
3. Marilyn Monroe (17%)
4. Henry VIII (11%)
5. Bobby Moore (9%)
6. William Shakespeare (6%)
7. Freddie Mercury (5%)
8. Albert Einstein (4%)
9. Winston Churchill (3%)
10. Kurt Cobain (2%)


People were also asked to choose what they thought the stars would be doing if they were alive today and six out of 10 thought Elvis would be a judge on American Idol.:mosher:

I'd have chosen Richard III - a much maligned character. He could have sorted this country out from the mess it's in.

Apart from the personal one's like my Dad, I think Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci for his visions of the future and his inventions were way before their time.

I wonder what he would have made of the world today??:eek:

I can well understand Elvis being top of the list, though there is a hardcore of fans who really believe he never really went. ;) The Sunday Express magazine had an article about the musical "West Side Story" last week. I didn't know that the film producers had wanted Elvis to play "Tony" but the ridiculous "Colonel" Parker vetoed it. Can you imagine it? Elvis in that superb musical. The knees go weak at the thought.........:D

Colonel Tom would not be on any buggers list, reason elvis never toured outside the usa was him, illegal immigrant n wouldn't let him leave without himself, was scared he would not get back in the states, n therefore lose his "Golden Goose":rolleyes:
