"ORION does no Elvis songs ad he's not an Elvis impersonator.He Just happens to sound like Elvis.He has the same kind of voice & wears a mask so that triggered stories that he'd had cosmetic surgery and is really Elvis, who never died but faked it to get away from his fans but now he wants to perform again.I'd say 90% of the people who have seen him thinks he's Elvis."Shelby Singelton"
We're permoting the fact that ORION is ORION. Sure we hope to attract some of the Presley fans."Shelby Singleton"
March 1980-"Elvis Presley fans come to my concerts all the time and after they see my performance,they are totally sold.They realize I'm not Elvis but I fill a void" "ORION"
April 1980-No Matter how good any impersonator is,any put on voice will change slightly from day to day.Mine stays the same because it is my real voice" "ORION"
January 1981"The mask I wear is my identity,Everyone has one...Dolly has her wigs,Johnny Cash has his Black Clothes,Crystal Gyale has her long hair,Willie has his bandaanas and I have my mask" "ORION"
"It's like if he becomes a monster Super Star-Which we Believe he will-he will never become the captive that Presley was or that the Beatles were" "Shelby Singleton"
"the biggesthing you ruling out i why is it so unusual or impossible for the good Lord to create soomebody that sounds like somebody else naturally? Mickey Gilley sounds like Jerry Lee Lewis,and Englebert Humperdink sounds like Tom Jones. I didn't go buy this voice at Sears & Roebuck. And I know there are thousands of people that have tried day in and day out-and are still trying to Sound like Elvis Presley...people who would do anything to sound like Elvis. I'm doing everything in the world to get away from it." "ORION"
