Elvis Presley – Love me Tender (Viva Elvis)


Have you noticed all the I love you graffiti all over the place? What if it was more than just graffiti?

That’s the premise of this music video for Elvis Presley’s Love Me Tender. It’s the second single from the 2010 album, Viva Elvis.

Yes. THAT Elvis Presley. It’s not everyday that one gets picked to direct a music video for the King. It gets even better when you get to work with awesome people in two cities plus pickups at Graceland.
