Joe Esposito may refer to:
"Lady, Lady" (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈleiði, ˈleiði]) was the Spanish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1984, performed in Spanish by the quartet Bravo.
The song is a melancholy mid-tempo ballad, with lead singer Amaya Saizar telling the story of the titular "Lady", a woman who lost her loved one "and her youth a thousand years ago", yet every evening she waits patiently for his return. The "Lady", in "her grey sun hat, her starch dress", her "Jasmine perfume" and "blue eye make-up" wastes her life waiting and lives "in her crystal world".
The song was performed fourth on the night (following France's Annick Thoumazeau with "Autant d'amoureux que d'étoiles" and preceding Norway's Dollie de Luxe with "Lenge Leve Livet"). At the close of voting, it had received 106 points, placing 3rd in a field of 19.
The song was a great commercial success in Spain, reaching number one at the Los 40 Principales playlist.
It was succeeded as Spanish representative at the 1985 Contest by Paloma San Basilio with "La fiesta terminó".
Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American singer and actor. Regarded as one of the most significant cultural icons of the 20th century, he is often referred to as "the King of Rock and Roll", or simply, "the King".
Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi, as a twinless twin, and when he was 13 years old, he and his family relocated to Memphis, Tennessee. His music career began there in 1954, when he recorded a song with producer Sam Phillips at Sun Records. Accompanied by guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black, Presley was an early popularizer of rockabilly, an uptempo, backbeat-driven fusion of country music and rhythm and blues. RCA Victor acquired his contract in a deal arranged by Colonel Tom Parker, who managed the singer for more than two decades. Presley's first RCA single, "Heartbreak Hotel", was released in January 1956 and became a number-one hit in the United States. He was regarded as the leading figure of rock and roll after a series of successful network television appearances and chart-topping records. His energized interpretations of songs and sexually provocative performance style, combined with a singularly potent mix of influences across color lines that coincided with the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement, made him enormously popular—and controversial.
"You're the Best" is a song performed by Joe Esposito and written by Bill Conti and Allee Willis, which came to prominence as the music to the All-Valley Karate Championships montage in the 1984 movie The Karate Kid in which the protagonist, Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), proves a surprisingly formidable contender.
Responding to years of criticism of "You're the Best" on the radio, Esposito called in to the Adam Carolla Show on April 9, 2008. The criticism was that the lyric "History repeats itself" was inappropriate because it was played during Larusso's first All-Valley Tournament in The Karate Kid. Esposito revealed that the song was originally intended for the Rocky III soundtrack but was replaced by "Eye of the Tiger." It was subsequently also turned down for the Flashdance soundtrack in favor of "Maniac" by Michael Sembello. Karate Kid director John Avildsen liked the song so much he used it in the movie.
The track has been used since in numerous homages to eighties movies, including:
The word lady is a civil term of respect for a woman, specifically the female equivalent to gentleman or lord, and in many contexts a term for any adult woman. Once confined to usage when specifically addressing women of high social class or status; over the last 300 years, the term may now be used to refer to any respectable adult woman.
The word comes from Old English hlǣfdige; the first part of the word is a mutated form of hlāf, "loaf, bread", also seen in the corresponding hlāford, "lord". The second part is usually taken to be from the root dig-, "to knead", seen also in dough; the sense development from bread-kneader, or bread-maker, or bread-shaper, to the ordinary meaning, though not clearly to be traced historically, may be illustrated by that of "lord".

Plot: The story, told in eight episodes, covers different facets of the American Spirit, from racial and religious tolerance to the dangers of self-centeredness and myopic reasoning. The parables represent a broad cross-section of the American experience: the elderly woman whose pride is injured when she's forgotten in the latest census; the novice minister more pleased with the sound of his own voice than with the needs of his congregation; the mother who confronts the illogic of racial intolerance when she meets the best friend of the son she lost to war; and the enigma that is Texas. Episode titles are: 1) Interruptions, Interruptions; 2) Census Taker; 3) Negro Story; 4) Rosika, the Rose; 5) Letter from Korea; 6) Lone Star; (7) Minister in Washington; 8) Four Eyes; a further episode, titled Load, directed by Anthony Mann, with 'Jean Hersholt' (q.v.) and 'Ann Harding' (q.v.), was filmed but deleted.

There are so many things wrong with this story and things left out of this story. First, both paramedics, Ulysses S.

Why would it take the hospital staff 20 minutes to determine that a body in rigor mortis was dead? Why did Elvis' father, Vernon, never bother to go to the hospital and, in fact, stayed behind and did a radio interview, showing no emotion, and signed a deal with Colonel Tom Parker on the same day?

MEMORIES OF THE KING - Elvis Presley Interviews with TCB Band members, Jordanaires, and Stamps, including Joe Esposito and Guercio!
This rare interview was done in 2002. Joe Esposito met Elvis in 1958 while serving in the army in Germany, and they became instant best friends. Joe immediately went to work for Elvis in 1960 when they both were discharged and was by Elvis' side almost 24/7 for the next 17 years until Elvis' death in August 1977. Joe was the head or leader of the 'Memphis Mafia' and was responsible for pretty much everything from tours, to daily needs of Elvis. When Elvis wanted a jet, it was Joe he went to for instance, and Joe made that happen. Joe was the second person that was brought into the bathroom to tend to an already dead Elvis, and to this day he is one of the only ones that 'tells it like it was', both good and bad. I happen to personally know Joe and the nickname Elvis gave him right from the...
