What about " if I can dream"?

@@carlamarlene2927 here is an interesting fact. After Elvis sang that song. It is believed he went back stage and cried. When he finished crying, he emerged and in his own words said he would never sing another song or act in another movie he did not believe in. Guess what? He never sang that song again which meant it meant nothing to him. 🖕

@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 Elvis most certainly did sing In The Ghetto again. Dummy.

@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 well you yourself say" it is believed" but I don't believe that

I believe it! My dad always listened to Elvis. I was listening since I was 5 years old!

I love Elvis. But….. this is not live!

This is the studio version of suspicious minds.

@@axelstone8569 I dont know either literally everything he did live was dam near perfection.

The studio version being slower than how its performed live so they had to slow down the footage, lol

Nah its not good enough to be live.

Yes thank you guys 😅

some believe he opened doors for black artists, others know he closed doors on black artists.

@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 Really!! Yes, I've seen some of your other posts. Nothing more than a bigot and a racist (that's you) who just seems to hang around Elvis's videos. You define this new word that the internet has spawned, "troll". Interesting, isn't it!!

He did not praise them or anyone. Stop the P.C. bull.

@@marilynwillett804 Are you inferring that Elvis had NO black friends in the music business because if you are then you're NO BETTER than your cousin "bwana-ma-coo-bah" above!! Welcome to the real world where liars and trolls are exposed!!

You are so correct.

But they don't do much Elvis

I totally agree with you.

I’m 58, I have to agree. Elvis always had black women for back up singers.

I subbed at 57 too. 58 white guy lol

Elvis was so big he crossed all nations and races

YES I JUST LISTENED TO "WHO AM I "SOOOO BEAUTIFUL !!!! ❤️

Ya his gospels were beautiful

Patricia Jackson I love his gospel!

Even when the king of Pop ( Michael Jackson) died.. I don’t think I was feeling a heavy heart as bad as I did with Elvis.. Shocking to me has been the deaths of John Belushi, Olivia Newton-John, Kirstie Ally, Christine McVie, Prince , Kelly Preston and Whitney Houston then her only child… 😭 With Kelly Preston my first thought went straight to John Travolta .. They had loss their son Jet.. then were blessed with another baby.. then 💥 BAM.. she dies😢.. Then Olivia passes and Kirstie… Ya think wow how much more can he handle.. and we don’t know about his actual family members passing… 😢😢😢

All subjective opiniones... All made in a white man dominated societies...

Like 2pac the king of rap but Elvis Presley is the king of rock.

@@Heyaleyah he sucked

also in pop and rock a billy

Elvis didnt need auto tone HE WAS AUTO TONE

32 in all, including Halls of Fame and local societies. Never be another.

@@jennywren7822 most of them never heard of i thought it was 23 but doesn't reall matter

@@stevechrist8622 I looked on Google recently out of curiosity and there's a list of them all. Most of cause are not Halls of Fame just local societies all over America, but still important. Might have changed since.

But IMO there were many great songs after this, In the Ghetto and Burning love both hit number 2 on billboard top 100. And he had LOTS of big selling albums from 1969-77 too. And in the UK he had several number 1 too in that time.

I love when Elvis sings gospel. His version of In the Garden is so soothing and beautiful

I'm only 43, but I was raised on his music. Still amazes me that some have never heard his music. This was cool to see.

💕

The Elvis movie is so good I actually discovered a lot about his life and what he had went through and it was so immersive I wanna watch it again

Elvis was a fantastic singer, who didn't need any gimmicks like Kiss or Alice Cooper to sell records! That whole sequined jump suit,karate moves and giant bent buckle crap was corny, gaudy and ridiculous!! Many don't realize his manager was a thief and took half of everything Elvis earned, he also was an illegal alien so Elvis never toured Europe or anywhere over seas, not once in a 20 year career. The colonel (his manager) was a degenerate gambler and owed Las Vegas casinos millions so the colonel kept Elvis tied to endless gigs in Vegas playing to a bunch of middle aged, middle American women with blue hair. Elvis would have been right up there at the top with all the big performers of the day had he been allowed to tour Overseas and form a modern day type band. Instead he was stuck making those same mediocre movies and playing those same crappy songs!!! Elvis did at one time fire that leech the colonel,formed a new band and was about to tour overseas for the first time.Elvis reconciled with that thief the Colonel and immediately cut Elvis off from all those new deals which would have elevated him back to the top playing rock and roll again. Instead the colonel kept Elvis tied to the throne in order to control the $ ,keep getting his 50% and hide the fact that he was an illegal alien. Elvis relinquished all control of his career to the colonel and it basically killed him !! The colonel had to keep Elvis working and robbing him blind to cover his huge gambling losses!! A real shame cause Elvis could sing country,blues, rockabilly, gospel and many other styles with incredible force and skill. His gospel records are heaven sent!! His diversity in musical genres was like Ray Charles who also excelled in every style he attempted

There is also a part 2of this video.

Yes as mentioned there is a part 2 of Elvis and The Black community ❤✌

Yes. Jailhouse rock and in the ghetto!!

Yeaaaa.... Freddie Mercury

Songs that he stole from multiple black artist… he even stole a black man’s voice !

@@DrStephanieMillerWilliams 😂😂😂😂 dream on girl! If it makes you happy then meditate on that!

​@@DrStephanieMillerWilliamsborn with his voice 😂

Cool! I`m 55 and also have fun!

I'm 71 and fire extinguisher are to put out the fire. Elvis is 🔥. Love you guys❤ Thank you😍

He grew up in the gettho. And was never racist. Did alot for his community. He had black singers I. His band. Never had singing lessons. He sang from. His heart

that is one of his best!

That's a Simon& Garfunkel Song. 😆

@@leeconthegreat3922 Bridge over troubled water, is A Simon& Garfunkel Song before Elvis, sang it. 🤣

Yes!!

@@cathygray3467 Yes, Yes! 🤗🤗🤗👍

Same here!

I was waiting tables in Wisconsin when I heard. You are right it is ingrained in your mind; just like with John Lennon and JFK (although I was young enough to only remember my mother and her neighbors crying in our house).

I was sitting in my parent's blue station wagon with my sister while our parents were inside the store when the announcement came over the radio. I was 8 years old at that time and still remember how upsetting it was.

Me too ❤

Beautifully said ❤

I was 9,ELVIS FAN FOR LIFE!!

The World went into mourning. I was 14 and cried for many weeks. Even today, after all these years, still get teary watching his performances. Rip Elvis x

I was 11 and one week 🙏

I was 12 and we were still on summer vacation. I was sitting on the floor in the den of my parents’ house when they interrupted the TV show to announce it, and I’ll never forget my cousin spinning around with his mouth wide open, staring at me in shock. No one could believe it.

I was 7 ,in the south of France where i was born, and as every big world event, i remember exactly what i was doing in the moment i got the news!

@ Marta, you are so right these guys need to watch the ACTUAL LIVE performance of Elvis singing this song, or even the whole Las Vegas show. He was Awesome! And F**k could he move! But, I'm loving watching, not only these guys, but other KZfaq channels I've been getting into. Experiencing music they didn't grow up with. Hell, Elvis started his career way before my time, and I wasn't even born yet. Plus, many other artists I could mention as well. I just happened to hear and listen to them, from a young age, or in my teens etc. Through Family growing up, people I knew who might have been older than me, etcetc. I love hearing all types of music and always have. That's just how it was and I hope the younger generations and those to come, do the same!

@@mandyrose6201 love it!

Elvis died in 1977 . He was on his way down & out in this one. When he was younger,his voice was better of course and he was much more dynamic.

I agree. And late 60s early 70s he hit his prime. His voice range just got better and more broad as he got older. His voice was amazing live.

He didn't go to Korea, when he was in the Army; he went to Germany.

@@catwhisperer9489 thank you 👍

@@brettg274 👍

@@brettg274 And he never fight......there was no war in Germany at this time.

He was still in high school during the last months of the korean war.He didn't go into the army until later and went to Germany. He was never in a war.

Facts!

King was killed about 7 blocks from Graceland.

DEFINITELY check it out...WHITE SUIT VERSION

I like the songs when he first came out I. the fiftys more fun to watch.

ABSOLUTELY MUST REACT TO THAT SONG GENTLEMEN!

Indeed!👍

MJ borrowed a lot from Elvis!

There's No Way.... Elvis would of Allowed that Marriage to take place If he was Alive then.... NO WAY

You didn’t know Elvis. He had no prejudice towards anyone.

@@atlasrunner8206 elvis was one of the most unprejudiced artist there was, there wasn’t a racist bone in his body

And check out "If I Can Dream" form his 1968 special. The power of it is amazing!

There is no "Official video". Official means it has been released by "EPE" (Elvis Presley enterprises). But EPE does not create or edit or release videos.

@Tate Genius Yes I'm sure they are, But I see that phrase used often when from people are describing Elvis videos. Just decided to start correcting people, I love correcting people. That could mean that I lead a lonely unfulfilled life, Hmmmmm... Naww,, I just like doing it. 🤣

@@warrendelay There is a so called "official video". It's the official live version Vegas 1970, from the documentation " That's The Way It Is". I guess you meant that "video". This one here is made by a fan, and not very well. Btw i like correcting people as well. Do i lead a lonely, unfilled live as well? 🤔

@@alameas6358 "Official" means it has been approved for release by the controlling trademark entity. for which in the case of Elvis THAT controlling entity is EPE, whom of which does not release or approve the release of videos on You Tube with Elvis's likeness. THAT is why reactors have so many copy right problems with Elvis videos. In regard to the segmented clip of Elvis's performances from "That's the way it is". those segments (any of them) have not been purposely segmented by the owners of the documentary copyrights. The segments have been Cut and edited out by entities OTHER than the copyright owners. Again there are no Official Elvis videos on KZfaq. (with the exception of the Elvis movie, for which "Warner Brothers" is the official copyright owners)

@@warrendelay I absolutely agree! It's not easy to explain and if English isn't your first language ( because that's the case for me) it's all the harder to explain. Thanks for doing it for me!

Yeah I was 14 too and rememer that the news was everywhere! I do understand how traumatic it was for so many of us fans all around the world

I was about 5 or 6, and I was with my mom on the way to the grocery store. My Mom had to pull over because she started crying. I didn't understand it at the time. The weird part was, I didn't even think my mom liked Elvis.

I was 13 saw it on news & started cry6 my eyes out. He was talented, gifted. Made Huge impact on the Music 🌎

You must be my age. I remember being at a campground and my mother yelling for us to come back to the camper.

I was about the same age as you when I heard it on the news.

Dream yes, but the others are good but not necessarily his "best".

ahhh Tom Jones!

@@waynebibey9727 ❤️

2 of my favourites. If I can Dream and in the Ghetto xxx

@@livingnextdoortoallanreact4030 ❤️

Stevie Wonder. 1. a blind man. 2. a black man 3. wrote most of his songs 4. played most instruments. 5. brilliant song writer. 6. 25 Grammys, the most by any solo artist 7. 1 Oscar 8. did I mention he was blind and black? 9. 23 studio albums, three soundtrack albums, Elvis 1. 3 Grammys 2. never wrote a song.

@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 yet as brilliant as Stevie is he will never be as big as Elvis.

@@michellepellomsanders4155 and why is that? because he is black maybe and wasn't marketed to an all white audience lie Elvis was? Ask yourself why it is that 99% of reactions done to Elvis are done by black people.

@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 his skin color has nothing to do with it! Stevie nor ANYONE else will ever rise to the stardom that Elvis did. It was a feat that has never nor will ever be achieved again. Plain and simple.

Be careful the zappa troll is almost in every elvis Video and always write the same one_sided nonsense about elvis, he probably write down the questions and answers to present them here, to get attention

Wow, what a unique experience your mom had! It must have been interesting for your mom to follow Elvis' career from the very beginning. Did she have any other stories of him?

@@sarzik2896 Later my family and I moved out to Las Vegas in the late 50's. We saw Elvis film 'Viva Las Vegas', on a sound stage out in front of the Sahara Hotel. We used to see him around town a lot. Once he walked up to my girlfriend while we were in the Aladdin Hotel. We were out having dinner with her mom, and we were only 14 years old at the time. My friend Barbara, was just his type. My friend's mom was all a flutter. We just laughed. Thought it was silly.

@@earlofmar7987 Thank you for sharing 😊

Wow!

It's hard to have 'a favorite' Elvis song, but American Trilogy would be somewhere at the top! Some of my older faves are Bossa Nova Baby and King Creole.

Yes! The black leather Comeback 👍

PISCES 228, AND THE ONLY REASON MJ DID IT WAS TO COVER UP THE FACT THAT HE WAS PERVERT! IT NEVER FOOLED ANYONE!

The 1970 Vegas Live version for sure!

@@reneebush2399 OH YEAH! I AGREE!

Elvis liked to lure 14 year old girls into his bed, he also was a woman abuser and he also was a drug addict, has he set the bar too high or too low?

Shit ugly zappa changed the World of boring clowns, He looked horrible like a bum at the end 🤣 🤣 🤣

Same in Australia. I was 14 and well remember school that day. Time just stopped and we all went into shock.

My mom told me that she was 17 and she was working as a waitress when someone came in and said that Elvis died. Everyone just started breaking down.

I remember I was 12 years old at Intermediate school in Auckland NZ and I was heartbroken and we were all so sad. My mum loved him too!!! His influence was HUGE.

Elvis is a Legend

Yes, yes, yes!

He's the King....🤣🤣🤣🤣
