We will never see the likes of him again.

I believe it was written by Elvis Presley bodyguard Red West. Red West was a successful music writer. I can only say one thing: "I'm 60 years old and I only know one strength that was always with me when I needed it in lonely moments - it was always Elvis Presley and his incredible voice, in which he always gave you this strength "that you are never alone"!

30 seconds in,the stress goes away and the smile appears. The elvis effect.

Elvis never disappointed his fans, that's for sure. You can hear the pain in his voice while he is singing Separate Ways. Thank you so much for doing this one about our dear Elvis.

John I love all of Elvis's songs I've been a fan of here since I was 8 years old and I'm 64 now I'm proud to be an Elvis fan

Beautiful song. "We should be out by 9..." 😂 Elvis adding his own chirp! I always enjoy his banter at rehearsals. Very nice reaction. Thanks John.

Elvis had soul filled with a heartache. His real love was Lisa and his Mom.

My favorite song. Gets me so emotional. Pulls at my soul. I can hear his hurt love it!!!

Same here elvis and his beautiful voice get me through good and bad days

Great to see you back John and you seem to have gained a lot of Elvis knowledge over the years. I believe the smile between JD and Elvis was because he reached a testing lower note which J. D appreciated and as Elvis knew JD could have had for lunch.

This is the perfect companion too "Always on my mind". Two of the best bitter sweet songs ever.

I really like when you explain why Elvis can sing with such true feeling this song, its true its a sad song, good to see you back, take care.

Yes, written for Elvis by one of his bodyguards, & long-time friend, Red West, while Elvis & Priscilla were going through a marital separation, & little Lisa Marie was having to leave her beloved daddy, to live with Priscilla’s boyfriend in California. A very sad time for them. Red gave the song to Elvis, never expecting Elvis to record it. Red said he just felt so sad for that little girl being taken away from the only home she had known & away from the daddy, who adored her. Perhaps Elvis saw singing this song as a way for him to express how he felt about it all.

Glad to see you back ❤ I've read that Elvis loved this song written by Red West and he played it over and over. At this time Elvis was going through a divorce and it really hit home for home for him.

Thank you Johnny boy...nice too see you again...🫠Lisa Marie r.i.p 12-01-2023🙏🏻💞

Hope things get less stressful for you and you can relax. Always wonderful to see Elvis!

Beautiful!! “ Always & Forever the One & Only , “ Elvis “

If you listen to Elvis music throughout the years, it's how his life was going.He was a very private person and didn't let anyone but the ones closest to him know how he was feeling.He would laugh and joke around like everything was fine. He let his feelings iut through song.I didn't notice when I was younger,but playing his music now from the 50s to the time he passed,his music expressed his life. Right after Pricilla left he did alit of sad ballads,but when he got with Linda you can see through his music,he was happy again. He started singing more upbaet songs. I listen to his music everyday and appreciate him now more than I did when I was younger. His music fits Any mood and makes you feel better! I've been a fan for 66 years and counting!❤❤❤❤❤❤

Yep! Elvis contorts his body and lips to get out just the right sound and emotion! Unbelievable and so smooth! Thanks John!

Perfect song❤ elvis is the best

Love this song and Elvis. It is so good to see you back. I have missed you and your wonderful Elvis reactions. I hope you have a wonderful new year.

Welcome back John. You've been missed. The greatest reactor 🙂

Beautiful song. Thank you so much John. Love your Elvis reactions ❤

Love any & all Elvis. Thank you!

I regard you as a close friend because you react wonderfully to the songs of our Elvis. Would be nice to meet you in person. JD was with Elvis right to his homecoming! Wish you a family a more relaxed time. We care about you, John. Elvis is with me every day, thank God for that!

Good song, absolutely great video & nice reaction again.

Nice to see you back and reacting to Elvis. You are one of the best!!❤❤❤

Its on my list of the Twelve Saddest Songs of all Time. Five belong to Elvis. “What Now My Love”, “Don’t Cry, Daddy”, “You Gave Me A Mointain”, and “My Boy”. Listen and Weep. Beautiful Sad Songs.

Very beautiful song like most of the ones he sang and on my list of Elvis favorites. Thanks John.

When you get a chance, check out the Elvis' song, It's Midnight.. Great song

Another beautiful but sad song.❤

Great song. to react John!

Beautiful song and he reaches inside my heart with the emotion in his voice....always. Thank you for reacting to this gem.

Lovely song!! Thank you so very much for your reaction!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤!

Certainly have missed you John, Elvis sounds fantastic, as ever your reactions are great 🎉

We miss you!

I did wonder where you were. So glad to see you again. We are a big family, and care about you. It was a sad Elvis birthday on Jan 8 because, his beloved daughter Lisa wasn't there. The anniversary of her death is January 12. Her daughter Riley carries on the legacy. She is an actress nominated recently for "Daisy Jones and the Six". which was on Amazon prime. She has a great voice. Thanks for your great reaction. Be Blessed.

Happy to see you back.Hope you have a great year. What to say about Elvis that hasn't been said before. Magnificent as always

John, I love all your Elvis reactions. This is a beautiful song and love the emotion Elvis put into it while recording it. The ending is so Elvis.

Elvis é perfeito, seu talento é sem precedentes, qualquer música se transforma com sua interpretação ❤

👌👌👌

Beautiful and touching song John ❤ lovely to have you back ❤ take care ❤

Hi. John. Thank. You. For. Enjoying. Elvis. As. Much. As. We. Do. This. Was. Written. For. Another. And. What. He. Went. Thru.

😢I always feel so sad when I hear this song because I think Elvis was very sad at this point in his life.

Merci!

Hi John! Good to see u back again! Because I miss u and ur react to Elvis! U do is so good! This song is beuatiful lyrics! This session recording 1972 between mars 28-31! Every song he do that time all abt Priscilla! He seperated and divorce later! Btw im glad u back again! Have a nice day!

Love it, awesome voice as usual.

It's so great to see how much your getting wrapped up within Elvis and his music. I have been an Elvis fan every since I was 5 and I'm 69 now. I see the passion in you as I was and still am. I play a little guitar and play some of his songs and just enjoy it so much. Keep up the Elvis songs. 😊

That was a very personal song to Elvis as when he and Priscilla divorced she took Lisa Marie to the West coast with her. It broke Elvis' heart! I'm headed to Memphis in July and I am so excited!

Hi John. Good to see you back. Hope things get less stressful. Love love your reaction. Thanks 💕💕💕💕

This is the song that made me an Elvis Presley fan

Welcome back and Happy new year ! Yeah this was about his divorce I read that he was having such a hard time that had to do many takes it was to emotional for him ! Sad but a beautiful song ! Awsome vocals but you can hear it in his voice just how hard it was for him ! Rip sweet elvis !❤

Nice to see you again! Kisses! 😘

Elvis was going through something. However, no matter what song he performed, he did it with emotions and made you feel it. He was also a jokester, and in some of his songs, he would make you laugh as well.

Had that album.❤

I know you are busy but thank you for coming back! Love your reactions!

Hi John. Love your channel ! I hope things get less stressful for you. You look tired, but still very handsome and personable. I'm doing well in Alabama, but cold and rainy, and expecting snow. Have a wonderful day, and I'll check you later ❤

Thank you for this beautiful song. Love anything Elvis!! Happy New Year John.

Hey John!!!!... I absofuckinglutely love your reactions....they are amazing!!!!.... Elvis is just terrific !!!..... This is one of my best songs from Elvis ......

Well just take care and God bless and happy New Year I wish you the best

One of my favorite songs its a beautiful yet sad song such a gorgeous man😘😍💙💙 thank you for another great reaction Happy New Year to you as well👏👏👏🙏❤

I downloaded a bunch of your music. You are a great musician in your own right.

Hola, John. Happy New Year. Thank you for reacting to more Elvis Presley. This song was originally written by Red West who was going through a marriage breakdown - he showed EP the song and asked if he could sing it. Elvis changed some of the words to the lyrics and the rest is history, as they say

Solitaire brings instant tears.

Welcome back John! Love your Elvis reaction videos.

Hey John you were missed! It's great to see you back! Red did write this and some others Elvis recorded! Elvis didn't write songs that Red wrote for him, but told him what he wanted to express in song!❤

Please react to "It's Still Here" recorded (unknown) to Elvis in a recording studio. Just Elvis singing and playing the piano. Oneof his best!

John you've got an impressive catalogue of Elvis reactions may I request "Home is where the heart is" and "I got lucky" both from the movie Kid Galahad.

Nice to see you again John! Elvis loved beautiful Ginger Alden to whom he got engaged at the end of his live - they had plans to marry in Dec. 1977. I read the book - Elvis and Ginger. She should have been his wife. Take care of yourself.

I love your reactions on Elvis video´s...... glad u are back !!

Hallo Johnny, frohes neues Jahr🥳Freut mich, Dich mal wieder zu sehen😃mit diesem melancholischem song😪Liebe Grüße aus Norddeutschland nach Bayern von Sven👋

AWESOME TO SEE YOU AGAIN JOHN!! AMAZING TO HEAR THAT YOURE STAYING EXTREMELY BUSY AND DOING WELL! 🤜🤛 THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND STAY SAFE...HAPPY NEW YEAR!

That was a.k.a.ELVIS JUNKIE THE micc won,t let GET my comments through.in 74 ALOHA SPECIAL WHAT NOW MY LOVE WAS I MEANT 73 WAS THE YEAR OF THE DIVORCE. I BELIEVE THAT WAS FOR PRISCILLA AND WAS ONE OF HIS MOST BESUTIFUL SONGS EVER. THAT HIGH NOTE AT THE END.MISSED YOUR SHOW. WATCHED WHAT EVER YOU POSTED. BUT LIKE THE ONE ON ONE BEST. LAURA

Welcome back John. A Very sad wonderful song. In my opinion, after researching & and finding out more about Priscilla. I can see why they went their separate ways. Miss Elvis and Lisa Marie 💕💕

Happy New Year John and thank you for the video. I love the song and Elvis ❤❤❤😘😘😘

Jane H commenting ….. Elvis always sings so beautifully, & although he was going through a lot in 1972, with his marriage breakup & his beloved daughter living in California with her mother, he still manages a smile. Always enjoy your Reactions to Elvis songs. Could you please do a Reaction to a not so well known song, which was written expressly for Elvis & became a Number One Hit for 5 weeks on the billboard in 1958. I came across Elvis rehearsing this song in 1970 & this is a song which showcases his lower range of vocals. It’s actually my very favourite Elvis song, called ‘Don’t’ …. There is a ReSync with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra following straight on after the rehearsal … The video is Elvis Presley - Don’t (Rehearsal) 1970/ReSync With The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra) New Edit. This song Don’t is a beautiful song & I know that all Elvis fans on your channel will love this video. Thank you.

Making beautiful music. Love to watch the rehearsals. Yes, so poignant given his break up with his wife.

Love seeing you! Find some peace. You deserve it!❤

fabuloso ¡

❤️❤️👑👑👑👑👑👑❤️❤️🥰🙏🙏🙏

❤ Love the song and love that your back.Missed you and yout reactions. Keep varn and keep safe my Friend. ❤

Hola John. Preciosa y emotiva canción. La voz de Elvis lo dice todo. Gracias por tus vídeos. 💖💖💖💖👍👍👍👍

MAGNÍFICO❤

The song "Separate Ways was written by Elvis' friend, Red West, after Elvis and Priscilla divorced.

Love that

Happy New Year, John! I'm number 555! Yayayayaya! 5 is my favorite number! Thank you for reacting to this song. It's very powerful because of the time Elvis and Priscilla were living through. Lisa Marie spoke of the songs of this period as the ones she delved into emotionally, growing up. And, I can see wanting to experience what my parents were dealing with in a moment where their lives changed and were no longer a couple. Powerful. Thank you!❤

Happy New Year John. So glad to see you back. Great reaction to a beautiful song. Glad to see your career taking off and thanks for another heartfelt reaction!

👑✌️Happy New Year!

Yes John New York glad to have you back there are a lot of other channels on here that play Elvis but I go immediately to John Gibson if there's not a little dot on their I don't particularly hit the other ones Elvis state of mind I might

Good for you to be working so hard wishing you best of luck with your music!! Happy New Year!

Dziękuję

Bem vindo de volta. Senti falta das suas postagens. Não falo inglês. Não é precisso saber o idioma pra entender a sua emoção e admiração quando fala sobre o QUERIDO ELVIS.😘

Happy New Year John. Hadn't seen you in awhile but glad to see you and hope all is going well with you. Wish the best for your music. All the best.

Hi John, I liked your reaction to "Separate Ways", I would like you to react to "Without Love (There Is Nothing) (1969)", "Sylvia" (1970), "She Wears My Ring (1973)", "love Coming Down (1976)", i am confident that you will enojoy these Elvis songs.

Please do where no one stands alone with his daughter Lisa Marie Presley
