Most have dementia but once they see the guy and hear the music, they are 16 again!
Hang on a minute...I like Elvis and *I* don't have dementia! I mean...sometimes I forget where I live but *that* doesn't mean anything. ;-)

It brings tears to my eyes watching their enjoyment.
Your post reminds me of a story I saw a year or two ago.It was about an old man living in a nursing home who,for a long time,had appeared depressed,confused and withdrawn.Someone had the idea of putting some of his favorite songs from 50+ years ago onto an MP3 player and have him listen to them through headphones (I guess his hearing was bad too).Almost immediately his face lit up,he began to smile and snap his fingers to the beat of the music (I think it was jazz).The transformation was miraculous!
