"Elvis Is Dead" is a song by Living Colour featuring Little Richard and Maceo Parker off the album Time's Up. Before, during, and after Little Richard's guest rap performance, many voices speak the song title, concluded by one announcing, "Elvis has left the building!"[1] After, the band twisted the line "Maybe I've a reason to believe we all will be received in Graceland" from Paul Simon's "Graceland" to yield the refrain, "I've got a reason to believe we all won't be received at Graceland." They also quote Public Enemy's "Fight the Power" in stating, "Elvis was a hero to most," but diverge in adding, "But that's beside the point."
