Though all the bards of earth were dead,
And all their music passed away,
What Nature wishes should be said
She’ll find the rightful voice to say.
--
The golden Silence, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).

And, in time, only the bards knew the truth of it.

Sam Phillips used what we call 'slapback' or 'tape delay', which lent an otherworldly patina to Presley's voice.

Elvis Presley
 

All her lovers have passed, her beautiful lovers have passed,
The young and eager men that fought for her arrogant hand,
And the only voice which endures to mourn for her at the last
Is the voice of the lonely land.
