Elvis is the one who allegedly widespread the
verse-verse-chorus-verse-chorus-solo-chorus template that was pop-industry-uniform in the later 80's, but Lennons' lyrical pretext was a popular style in the work of many earlier 80's artists.
My old music teacher says the transition to the Elvis style happened at about the same time as the 'corporate takeover began to enter acceptance as normal {as opposed to new or radical} practise'. (You folks decide- it sounds smart, but I don't know).
Yes, both influenced later music, tho both drew on existing templates. At the very least, they entered a new series of "key words" that replaced older styles.I think Lenon also turned peoples' eyes towards the future in his work, but I don't know if he was doing it conciously or if it happened because he ended up getting associated with the Flowerchild/FlowerPower movement.
Topographically, all nations already had the two proto-genres in use: stable communities had something like Lennons ballad pretext commemorating an event or history of a location, whilst migrant and travelling worker communities made use of folk-blues style templates,discussing friends and aquaintances who often move on- tho Elvis and the Beatles both have good examples of each general style in the long run.
Considering the whole cold war period didn't result in WWIII (yet), I class Lennon as the greatest overall influence (tho he was technically only an assist to the whole world-peace ideal:it got there before he jumped on board), whereas Elvis taught a lot of common folks a great deal of stuff about day-to-day relationships. All the finer details could technically result in a tie between the two.
Having supported both, I ultimately vote Lennon: Altho both used copious amounts of drugs, Lennon had not naturally arrived at the conclusion to start regularly overdosing himself with the quantities he was putting into himself-which implies he had at least one last phase to go through as a lyrical messenger before the term of "his natural" life was up.Since he died before expiring himself, we're left to guess what his next phase would have been.This invokes self thinking during a period of world transformation which makes Lennon the greatest depositor of influence into those who want to study his messages.
(Elvis had a great heart as well,tho. He was a very generous giver of his own assets, whereas Lennon bonded with an outside influence,albeit a very important one that needed Champions).
"Everyone has a hobby.Even people who say they don't still have one under another name.If we're sick,injured, we still go to it and get down to see how it is.If it needs something, we bring it,make sure the attention is perfect.It exercises our care and protection and gives us back philosophies.It's a living thing to us,and is the most perfect way to teach a young person how to be towards a living thing. It's something that should never be taken away."
