Such a redundant comment. Success is immensely subjective and can mean anything. Someone can become capable of playing marry had a little lamb on keyboard, and think that they are a success. I fail to see the real meaning behind your comment.

Well, the initial post of yours that I was responding to equated not being famous with mediocrity. I was disagreeing with the notion that one has to be famous to be successful.

When did I say that ones has to be famous to be successful? I related success with fame because fame is one of the few objective ways to rate success, but it is not the only. In the days of Elvis however, it was one of the very few, and I doubt his goal was to be someone who was almost famous but not quite. He was a musician, who signed with a major record company, and submitted his singles to radio stations. He wanted to get his music out there, and for people to listen to it. Not only did he want to be successful, but he also wanted to be famous.

Elvis once said, "Ambition is a dream with a V8 engine." He was very ambitious even after he made it big.

But pretty much after the '68 comeback special he had lost most of it due to the people that surrounded him and his pill popping. When you started hearing the 70's love ballads from him you knew there was nothing left in him.

I think he was just enjoying making music, and then it became massive. I've been kind of observing this with the Beatles history lately. Not that they weren't trying to get somewhere, but then they kept creating awesome stuff because they composers first, stars 2nd.
