No tricks, no lipsynching, no autotune, just his band, backup vocalists and Elvis's voice on a microphone!

It is a classic. It’s from his worldwide satellite performance in 1973 from Hawaii. A billion and a half people out of a four billion population watched this concert and Elvis was stellar ❤

1:5 BILLION People+++ Biggest Gig in Human History! Only the KING!👑👌👍

I think we can say there won't be another.

There will never be a greater or more beloved entertainer on this planet .....Elvis will always be the King

There’s a reason why after all this time Elvis Presley is still the undisputed king of rock and roll.

The Man was a complete incomparable LEGEND!

I love how he always highlights members of his group. Just watching them and taking it all in as we all do. Oh yeah, never doubt those vocals. He says "Come On baby" then "loud" then "now" when he staring at them. Again. I love to see how much he loves and admires the people surrounding him on the stage

I was 14 years old when I watched this live with my whole family in our living room.

What I liked about the performance is at the end he threw is belt to the crowd.

Not Only was Elvis the "GREATEST"......but he had the Greatest back up musicians EVER.

One of his greatest emotional inspirational songs.

There’s a longer clip of this performance that has him waking down the ramp, unhooking his belt and throwing it into the audience before he begins the next song. An unintentional mosh pit! 😂😂

Elvis is the best solo entertainer of all time. His uniqueness will never be seen again. No one touches him.

Elvis's body and hand movements are him directing the musicians

Amazing that a man that’s been dead nearly 50 years, can still bring chills to my body! He was a true fan of his background singers…bringing them into the spotlight numerous times in a concert. One of whom was the mother of Whitney Houston….

Long live the King.

Not just once in a lifetime but never ever again in 1000 lifetimes will another perfect human being than this ever grace the earth..

Elvis the best all the Time

My beautiful Elvis

My favourite Elvis song. He was such a talented and beautiful human.

Who can stand the talented winds of the Tupelo Tornado 👑 Elvis Presley 👑

Music was his life ... never formally trained , he heard what he wanted in his head and did most of his own arranging and producing ! And then there was that voice ... that face ... that beautiful heart ! TCB forever !

Elvis rarely took him self seriously.

Nobody can or could do that 100% live with that control with that presence and that feeling how he draws you in, like no other ever

Elvis was backed by his Rock band-An orchestra and 2 sets of backup singers & his voice soared above it all!

It's ashame just 4 short years later ELVIS would DIE 8/1977, two months before my wedding to my high school sweetheart. I was so shocked and my heart broken I cried for weeks. RIP

What has always gotten to me in this performance is the fact of how clearly his voice is with all the instruments playing and all the background singers going you can still hear his voice. I don't mean the mic was turned up more. I mean his voice alone is so unique you can perceive it regardless of everything else. I mean those trumpets are really sounding off!!! Thanks reacting to this. As we say in Texas; Y'all be safe.

This 1973 Aloha Hawaii Concert was Beamed Live Via Satellite 🛰 World 🌎 Wide and was Viewed by 1.5 Billion People. It Was The First Of Its Kind.

He's been my King for 60 years and will be till the day i die !😍

There will NEVER be another Elvis! No auto tune and completely self taught. He was not only an amazing with vocals and instruments and yes I just have to say again he was self taught but he LOVED his fans and he was humble and kind!! Thank you for doing this song.❤

Fantastic performance by Elvis. He really liked this song and arrangement. He was always so in touch with the whole ensemble on his stage and directed them through the performance. The absolute GOAT. Thanks for this reaction. 💖💖💖

Elvis crossed generations in his time with music. In the 20th century he was very much a part of American culture. It's kind of haunting how long ago this seems. I was a pre-schooler when my parents took our family to see this at my Uncle's house who had a very big satellite dish in his backyard. It's memorable because my Uncle showed me a baby coral snake he had in an aquarium when I first saw Elvis. I had grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles and my siblings and cousins all in the living room keeping an eye on the snake, and watching Elvis. Satellite TV was new technology for homes back then. This and the final episode of M.A.S.H. (an old comedy series) made a hit on world satellite.

Can we not give enough credit to the man playing the flute in this video? This man had over a billion people watching him and if he blows just one note it ruins the whole thing.

Just think I got to see this man in 1975 for 5 dollars,this song still gives me chills,KING ELVIS.

It was difficult for Elvis to goto church...so his gospel songs he'd sing during his concerts were his opportunity to worship that's why there is alot of passion and vigor in his performance. His first ever album was a gospel album.

The coolest guy ever on Earth!

You can definitely hear his gospel roots here. I love this side of him.

He is an icon for a reason. That voice is something else..... ❤

Thank you! Elvis had a beautiful voice. He was so handsome. He was a great performer. Elvis really had it all.

This was world wide seen by 1 billion plus people

He's so fantastic love him.

Look at that ring..........................💥BLING💥 RIP Elvis.

Makes me cry every time I hear this.

When I open my KZfaq and see Elvis, it makes the sun shine! This is a great song, y'all will love it, in my opinion.

He is the best and once you've heard the best you can forget the rest .just imagine if he had lived ,he died at age 42 and he is still shining after all that time .we love Elvira Presley forever

This whole concert was awesome! "Steamroller blues" from this same concert is a must hear! 😊❤ in this song the part with the flute solo.. He (elvis) was like maybe 5 feet away from the guy playing the flute. He was so kind to all his band members and let them have their moment to shine. ❤

The best, The best ,The best

Love Elvis good hearted person. Watch the echo will never die documentary

Greetings from Germany. Thanks . Elvis ist auch in Deitschland der King . 👍👍👍

HE IS ......... THE G.O.A.T. !!!!!!! THE KING FOREVER !!!!!!!!

No one can compare to Elvis he has sold over a billion records in 5 or6 hall of fames he had a short career and is still relevant sang rock n roll, rhythm and blues, country. Gospel , rock a billy hall of fames.

My personal favorite by him.

Oh it's definitely regarded as an iconic performance for sure. And it's a Song of the South followed by a song of the north followed by a slave lullaby and then he ties it all together for the grand finish. It's so amazing. And I love how he always puts the spotlight on other members of his band. Not just in this but he does it consistently.

There will never be another Elvis.

You noticed the ring but also notice that he had a bandaid on his finger, he wore a bandaid to keep the fans from pulling his ring off. This show was history making in more ways than one. The first via satellite, more people watched this than they did the first man on the moon. There will never ever be anyone else to even measure up to Elvis

Elvis didn't just sing what he felt he felt what he sang

Thank you, Thank you very much.

He also directs the band with his movements

This was my father's favorite elvis song. He had it played at his funeral and everytime I hear it, it make me think of him.

I get chills every time I hear this !!!

He was the greatest

Wow just wow really mazing Elvis Presley hé is incredible

You do realize he was singing live and being first ever via satellite to over one billion people

Iconic performance! Amazing vocals as always! Ty for reacting to Elvis!

Powerful and Timeless…TCB⚡️

اعظم فنان على مر العصور لم ولن يتكرر الملك بدون منازع

There will never, ever be another Elvis!

Elvis always the best, beautiful generous soul

Great reaction to the Greatest of All-time. How about how he shows respect to the backup singers and band in all his live performances .

Amazing... Amazing.....I watched this concert years ago..I have also watched so many videos at least 100 times or better....Still get chills from this song n how Elvis sings it .He was Unbelievable in everything he did.No one like him.... No one could take his place... Thank u ..

Pure Magic on that stage! Fun Fact: if u look closely Elvis has bandaids above the rings on his fingers, except for one. They were put on him because he was known for taking them off & giving them to his fans. He saw a little girl in the front row in a wheelchair. He had a ring that was $35-$40,000 and he took it off & gave to the little girl. It was reported that Elvis spent over $700,000 in jewelry that he gave mostly away. He bought over 200 Cadillacs that he gave away. To complete strangers... This is just one reason why he has such a loyal fan base & loved so much. That concert in Hawaii raised over $75,000 for Cancer. You both are my new favorite channel. Binged alot of your content. If I may make some suggestions...

Outstanding!

I watched this Concert on TV when I was 9 Years old. It was shown Worldwide..

Starting with his first record deal, in the early 50s, to the day he died, in August '77, Elvis was the biggest star and most recognized person in the world. The stress he put on himself caused his abrupt downfall and led to his passing away at such a young age.

That’s The King right there.

Elvis was passionate about his country and this song explains some of his feelings. The world is a better place for having Elvis as one of the greatest singers and performers, in all his very exciting facets.

Great reaction! Each time I watch this, I feel as though I've watch a 4 hour epic movie set during the Civil War and capturing multiple perspectives. I still get goose bumps.

Elvis love me tender live from las vegas 1970 needs reacting too !

Tnx for the reaction. This is one of Elvis best performances. The rehearsal version is also really nice, but the flute in this version is better. A reaction to What Now My Love, Just Pretend or In The Ghetto are also nice once’s to have a listen to.

Somente Elvis pode cantar está música com tanto fervor com toda sua alma . Fantástico

One of my very favorite Elvis performances!

I remember when I saw this in 73 it was the most amazing thing I’ve seen to date. So exciting when Elvis ran on stage in couldn’t contain myself 🤣🤣 yelled mom it’s Elvis like she didn’t know. God! I fell in love with Elvis that night lol and 51 years later the love affair is still going strong. He is my lifelong love affair! TCB ⚡️

Everytime I hear and watch this performance, as a musician myself I’m just in aww at at how every singe sound in this performance comes from that stage. It sounds better than any studio recording I’ve ever heard. It’s just all there.

Oh and I forgot to mention, my favorite part is the big drum and Banfield up to the big finish, he is in total hundred percent lockn state with his band and he's looking back at them and this incredible death stare and then he's just like giving them energy with just his facial expressions and then he turns and punches his fist in the air and then joins in and Rises up to that thunderous vocal. Just unbelievable. I never get tired of watching that.

As others have said, despite being the biggest star on the planet at the time, he was happy to share the spotlight with JD Sumner & the Stamps, his male backing group with their piece, and then the Flautist, Gabe Balthazar. Gabe was legendary in Jazz circles as a flautist and sax player, he passed away only last year ...

I watched this on tv when it aired live via satellite. I turned 12 that year. I had seen him in concert twice the year before and you still felt almost the same watching him perform on tv as you did sitting in the audience.

world wide show. for many years,the most watched show in tv history.may still be . was broadcast via satellite, which was rare then, to over a hundred countries

Uma performance inesquecível e de muita FÉ ❤🙏

Legendary concert moment. Emotionally powerful for many

The best band back up singers the flute and the king!!

Elvis Is The GOAT!

He got his start singing in gospel churches and this really shows those roots. Such a talent gone too soon.

I born in Europe 1973. He and he only is for me the greatest. Powerful masculan voice and also so tender and charming who can bring tears in my eyes. He touched me so deep . There is no equal. He asked himself " when I'm dead I left nothing important " . Well Elvis in 500 years from mow they still now and listen to you. For example this trilogie. The more I listnen to this the more you touched my soul.

I had my first 45 rpm of Elvis in 1962 when I was 6 yrs old... I watched the live satellite concert which is shown here in 1973 with friends... It was such a big deal at the time...most of the world was watching this historic concert when it aired by satellite... The square diamond ring you mentioned cost him $ 35,000 to have made at the time...Upon Elvis's death the ring went to Elvis's bass singer and oldest friend, J.D. Sumner...it can be seen on a few of J.D's gospel videos on his left hand...after J.D. died, the ring went to Graceland to be put with thousands of other Elvis artifacts where it remains today...Great reaction, guys...Keep being awesome !!!...

Elvis é o maior mega stars da história Elvis o minotauro

Elvis had a love for gospel music and sang it quite a bit. .o

My boy My boy what great voice and top song. Never someone better than this men. Play Surrender or hurt 1977

I remember watching this back in the 70s me my two cousins and my auntie who loved soo much down south Texas corpus Christi. I see your girl cannot take care of eyes off of him either. He had that effect😊

the most beautiful voice God ever created
