Actually, that doesn't prove anything. No matter how you pronounce 
Louis, you still have to pronounce it with an s in the genitive. And the 
notion that Louis stresses the s to indicate that he wants his name 
pronounced that way is erroneous. Listen how he says "faces" in "What A 
Wonderful World"; the word also hangs at the end of a bar: "and also in 
the faces/ of people going by" - and Louis sings the s as markedly as 
the s in "Hello Dolly".
