When searching iTunes for "radio," I triggered a video option which included Kenny Chesney's Beer in Mexico and something called "Me and Elvis" by Human Radio. Searching for what this could mean, I found a great site documenting the elvis connections in songs. They described it as: HUMAN RADIO "ME AND ELVIS" Clever lyrics abound here. Human Radio was a one hit wonder and this was the hit. They formed in 1989 just as new wave was on it's way out and the Seattle movement was on it's way in. They simply fell through the cracks and disappeared. This is a breezy tune about cruising and hanging out with the King. Clever lyrics? "Me and Elvis never worried about the cops. He flashed that badge he got from Nixon every time that we got stopped".
