Now requests for expansion he wants his greatness returned. I want my flowers while I’m alive…” (Chubby Checker, “Letter”). In 2003, unhappy with the Hall of Fame decision and the failure, in his view, of some radio stations to give his songs adequate play time, Checker staged a brief protest requests for expansion outside of the Manhattan building where the induction ceremonies were being held (Rush). Perhaps he will yet realize his wish. In March 2004, Seymour Stein, a member of the selection committee, noted in an requests for expansion interview that Chubby Checker “…is someone who will be considered. He has in certain years…” (“Chubby Checker’s ‘Twisted’ Protest”). Chubby Checker is not shy about assessing his impact and the impact of the Twist on the world of music. He once said: “I compare the Twist to the electric light…The Twist is me, and I’m it. I’m the electric light” (Cannon). In a 1997 interview, Checker again assessed his impact on the music world, commenting: “Dancing apart to music with a beat is my legacy” (Knapp).
