Late posting today feeling under the weather but here’s a fab performance from the one and only Elvis! Let me know what else I should watch from him below 👇🏻

“When I first heard Elvis perform ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ it was unbelievable. I thought to myself, ‘How the hell can I compete with that?'” - Paul Simon.

That's the king, no auto-tune, no musical education, still every cover he did was better than the original. Love your reaction very much ma'am

Elvis is so underrated as an arranger! He arranged his recordings and the music in live performances! ☮️🖖🏽

The phenomenon that was and still is...ELVIS. I am a lifelong musician and vocalist, and grew up with his music. I get goosebumps when I pay attention to all the layers in every recording, every live performance. Elvis coached his backup singers, helped with arrangements. He instinctively knew where to go in every song. So inspirational, so loved, so missed. Will never be another King of Rock n Roll.

Elvis was the greatest frontman in music history. Nobody was as versatile as a singer as he was. He could even sing gospel.

No one can bring tears and emotions like Elvis. He can not be explained, he just bridges every generation gap you can think of. Seeing him live must have been an experience that stayed with you as long as you lived.

There is an element of Elvis’s live performances that is frequently overlooked, but speaks volumes about his talent. Watching this, and others, look for moments when it’s clear that he is constantly aware of what’s happening musically behind him. He is always directing, guiding, urging his musicians as they play. He does it with physical gestures, with words, and often with just a look over his shoulder or a smile, acknowledging what he likes, encouraging sounds or tempos. He is in command of his stage. Such a Talent.

SImon and Garfunkle were in the Audience, when he sang this, and they both looked at each other and said "HOW DO WE EVER FOLLOW HIM"; "IT IS IMPOSSIBLE"!!! He sang everything BETTER than what was ever put in front of him!!! He was absolutely SPECTACULAR!!! Thank You for reacting to this beautiful rendition of "Bridge Over Water"; like ELVIS can only do!!! This was a MASTERPIECE!!!

Elvis produced his songs both in studio and on stage from every note of music to each sound of a voice with him. He was the first to ever do this. His arrangement of Bridge is so beautiful, along with that gifted voice, it does make you tear up. You just know he is going to lay down over that troubled water for you.

Wow! How the world needs him more today than ever before... He didn't just sing with soul, he was his whole Soul doing this!

His voice is what draws you to him it's incredible. I was I think 5 or 6 years old when I first heard him and now almost 50 years later I still get goosebumps when I listen to him. Thank you Mr. Presley for all those wonderful years

Elvis is the KING OF MUSIC...He is greater then himself

He passed when I was 10. I'm 55 now, and have listened to Elvis all of my life. The decades of other music comes and goes, but Elvis is the mainstay through it all. And yes, the emotion you feel, the chills that you feel when Elvis sings, it never goes away. I still get emotional. I still cry on some songs. I still get the chills. I've often said, "Elvis was an angel in a human body, sent to impart Heavenly grace through song". How else can you explain the combination of looks, humility, generosity, charisma, style, uniqueness among men, attraction, presence, voice, vocal range, control, emotion, and impact? Nothing like it has ever been experienced in the musical world. I'm glad to see the younger generations learning about, being introduced to, Elvis. Your reviews are different in that you point out some technical/musical aspects of his performances. Thanks for the respectful way you review Elvis.

Just as every other Elvis video you have seen the emotion you feel when you watch a master at work and with no dancers, no light show and no other gimics to impress you then you see what it takes be a great entertainer. He left us 45 years this Aug. and still he moves us.TCB

His performances were so great, and what so many people dont talk about, is that he produced all the music arrangements. Not only vocals, but instuments too.

Dang those lungs and voice control. That vibrato. The smoothness and roughness mixed together beautifully. Perfect voice

Did you know he built and produced that arrangement around him, you see it in the "That's the way it is " concert documentary. He sculpts exactly how he wants the harmonies and the instruments. He is often not given credit fir hid music production. Great review and it's good he brought you to tears.

I'm impressed at how he could still bring tears to your eyes after all these years.

This is my favorite song by Elvis. Hits my heart every time He is just Phenomenal!!♥️🔥♥️

Elvis made most of the detailed arrangement himself- om top of the guy hired to do it, - there's a video of him directing/coaching his band/choir in rehearcel of this song for this Las Vegas performance

He's the King for a reason!!

You have witness the Greatest Mr.Elvis Presley

That velvet voice. Its very captivating and special. Unbelievable. I watched over and over this brilliant live performance called " Make the world go away 1970 live " by Elvis. Please react to that one. I think its amazing.

Love this performance 👏 and your reaction. If you see his rehearsal for this, you can see how much of himself he puts into the arrangement he wasn't just a pretty face he was something special 🥰

Look at those beautiful eyes ,and that smile just melts my heart , then when he sings makes you feel it deep down in your heart and soul ,this man really knew how to conduct a performance

Aww you're reaction is wonderful Elvis reaches the spirt and soul of those who take the time to listen to him.

I've been listening to Elvis since I was 15...that means the last 25 years of my life. A girl from Eastern Europe, even though they laughed at me for listening Elvis, I never gave it up. He is unique, each of his songs is a story that leaves an impression on you. When someone asks me what is my favorite song, there is simply none, I love Elvis, period. Brilliant 🔝 podcast and PLEASE 🙏 🙏 🙏 listen to the song Just pretend 1970 live...it's one of my favorites. Maybe it becomes to you and your followers. Many greetings from Croatia 🇭🇷 ❤️

I can listen to this song 500 times and I will get emotional 500 times. Congratulations on the video!

I never get tired of listening to Elvis singing. Especially in this time of his life. He sang this song with so much love. Relaxes and soothes the soul. Thank you Elvis. And great reaction.

I love everything Elvis does when he sings, he's amazing

Elvis Always Awesome 🙂

Elvis was incredible doing arrangements for the band and backing vocals. I have all the rehearsals recordings

I thought how can anyone sing this song as good as Art Garfunkel, but Elvis nails it💓 Love your explanations👍

Your voice is lovely.....❤️🌻 I understand about feeling emotional when Elvis sings. His voice feels like a warm blanket around me when the world is cold.Thank you for sharing this beautiful song with us.

There were so many layers to Elvis' performances that it's hard to believe that a human being could pull this off in one moment in time.

Excellent reaction! I totally agree with everything you said. He was a gift to this world and you are very talented too

Your observations were great! Love learning more about Elvis and his perfect performances. He truly was a master at his trade. Born natural. Love his story. So much love in his heart. Amazing.

To me, that's one of the most beautiful songs that I've heard, and Elvis singing it makes it even more beautiful

Elvis the KING.

You should definitely check out elvis I believe I love the depth of his voice in this song

Love love love this song. His most beautiful self !!

Wonderful reaction! ELVIS version of this song makes goosepumps! His vocal range is incredible! I love ELVIS!

Love your reaction! Elvis is Elvis. Nothing that goes under "normal" can be considered Elvis stuff.

YOUR REACTION GOT ME EMOTIONAL!! AWESOME AWESOME REACTION MY DEAR! ❤️. IVE BEEN LISTENING TO ELVIS FOR OVER 51 YEARS....HIS VOICE IS SECOND TO NO ONE AND STAGE PRESENCE IS OFF THE CHAIN! HE DID MOST OF HIS ARRANGEMENTS REGARDING HIS CONCERTS...HE WAS A DOWN TO EARTH SIMPLIFIED GENIUS! YOURE AWESOME...KEEPM COMING! 👍❤️😉

Live, his own arrangement (as you can see in the movie, that's the way it is"), no autotune, autodidact , just out of this world. I love most music from ac/dc to The Beatles, from opera to country , from the 50' to the 2020' , but I always go back to Elvis, he had something I cant find anywhere else !

Beautiful performance by Elvis - loved your reaction 💗💗

Loved your reaction Nina! This is an all time iconic song sung by the legend himself. The S&G version was my favourite until I heard Elvis sing this song... Wow! Love his powerful voice, the music, instruments and his backup singers were the best. A flawless performance. Thank you for this video. 👍⚡🇿🇦

“So what it boils down to was Elvis produced his own records. He came to the session, picked the songs, and if something in the arrangement was changed, he was the one to change it. Everything was worked out spontaneously. Nothing was really rehearsed. Many of the important decisions normally made previous to a recording session were made during the session. What it was a look to the future. Today everybody makes records this way. Back then Elvis was the only one. He was the forerunner of everything that’s record production these days. Consciously or unconsciously, everyone imitated him. People started doing what Elvis did.” - Bones Howe, Recording Engineer, as quoted in Jerry Hopkins’ 1971 book, "Elvis, A Biography"

Elvis arranged this. There’s a video of him rehearsing this song from That’s the way it is concert movie.Elvis is PHENOMENAL!! I love your reaction. You sing beautifully too.

"Elvis soundscape" is a wonderful term. He surrounded himself with the best musicians he could find and seems to have known how to bring out the best in them. I heard one of those on stage with him say that Elvis didn't care who the spotlight was on, as long as they were doing a good job. The music was what mattered. Check out "Without Love" and "Love Me, Love the Life I live." And for a wonderful early ballad "First In Line."

Elvis and his vessel singing . A king leading his kingdom 👑

Lloro cada vez que veo a Elvis cantando esta canción

Hi Nina! Fantastic video I love how you explain the singing abilities that Elvis has, I'm not a singer so I hardly notice some of the in depth abilities that Elvis uses in his performances. What I would definitely recommend is his performance of "What now my love" or "You gave me a mountain" it really shows Elvis's vocal talent. Check it out if you haven't already heard it😉

Elvis knew what he wanted from a song that's why he was so involved in arranging the music. He was a true musical genius with his greatest gift being his phenomenal voice. He takes what was a great song and makes it even better. My biggest disappointment is that I never got to see him in person. He was scheduled to perform in Hershey in the Spring of 1978, I would have been there with "bells on". I was fortunate enough to watch the Aloha special (that will be 50 years this week!) live though. I LOVE ELVIS!!!

Love love your reaction. More Elvis please

Elvis was a Perfectionist with his music.. He would never settle for Less than perfect. He did as Many takes as it took to get it exactly right, & it Always was.

This is my very favorite version of this song. Paul Simon said it is his favorite version as well I do believe.

No one can outshine Elvis's powerful voice and electrifying performance

Beautiful!!!

Very nice comment, nice to see that you hear the small details what makes this song so good.

I love how he starts out low and slow ad builds the power. Every time the piano "sings" I have to twiddle my fingers over an imaginary keyboard, LOL. Next video? how about "Just pretend" from the same concert in 1970. Elvis has an incredible vocal "run' or riff at the end (if that's the correct term). An incredible example of vocal control.

What I wanna see next, much more ELVIS.

Legendary king

A few words about Elvis Presley, Nightwish (Floor Jansen), Dimash, Angelina Jordan and another cool vocalists Alan Dean Foster, the famous American fantasy and science fiction writer who applied his writing talent to such hits as Star Wars and Star Trek, maintains a music section on his blog. "There are many good singers, fewer great singers, and a very small number who are unique singers. Diana is a natural dramatic contralto. This is the lowest range for a female singer. She is also polyphonic. Roughly, this means that when she sings she often sounds like more than one person singing at once. As you can imagine, the combination is extraordinary. So too is her full range. Singers at age 14 can do things that astonish us. Witness the careers of Jordan and the Dutch prodigy Amira Willighagen. But even when included in this company there is something special about Diana. I love the performances of the two singers I just mentioned, but they are (perfectly) controlled and measured. Diana is more akin to a force of nature. One of the most common descriptions of her performances is “shamanistic.” Some of this has to do with the remarkable timbre of her voice, some with the sheer intensity of her performing. In this she is closer to Floor Jansen. With both women you can see as well as hear the intensity, the emotion, contained with both the lyrics and the music. A duet between the two would be something magical." I would also like to draw your attention to this young vocalist Diana Ankudinova.

Great Great job of the breakdown of the Greatest of All time

I'm not a real Elvis fan, but this version is INCREDIBLE.

I had a T-shirt made years ago that said, I may be old but I got to see all the really cool bands! Well, I'm 72 now and back in 1971, being a long haired musician myself, I went to see Elvis in concert in Dallas, Texas and I was pretty close to the front, dead center and I especially remember Elvis performing this song and it was almost a spiritual experience, totally blew me away as did the whole concert and remember Elvis was 100% at the top of his game then! I'll never forget it, one of the best performances I ever witnessed, and I've see literally seen everybody from 1965 and up.

For my entire life even though Elvis is maybe my favorite performer I never wanted to hear his version or anybody else's version of this song. Once I heard this performance by Elvis it's one of the best performances I've ever heard from anybody and it's crazy to say but it's even better than the Simon and Garfunkel version and they're the ones who wrote and performed the song originally. He gives it a gospel feel and it really gets in your bones because if you hear the song basically it's a way of saying to like a friend or a family member that I've got your back and the way he sings it you really feel it. I agree with you his version is extremely emotional.

deep melodic tone transitioning to high country style belts usually with a touch of rock and roll are the marks of elvis songs. There's talk about elvis having a karate background shotokan style prior to his epic singing career which explains his tendency to

Nina elvis on tour bridge over troubled water is perfectly unbelievable, but love the thats the way it is version aswel.😉👌,your so butiful keep doing wot your doing its fantastic to watch 😁👌

Adoro essa música. Ouvi pela primeira vez quando criança. Beautiful 💖 💖 💖 thankil

Brilliant thanks for posting Nina, I highly recommend the new Elvis biopic for you, it's a great movie.

YOU are an OUTSTANDING interpreter ! Thank You ! Everything Elvis would also be OUTSTANDING content too….

No doubt about it there was ELVIS then there was everybody else!! ❤

I have this song almost memorized in my mind...the piano notes, the flute, and his voice, the background singers. It is by far to me the best Bridge Over Troubled Water arrangement and performance ever. Just Gorgeous! Thank you for putting it out there. Ive played it for years, but so happy a younger person can appreciate it! Thank you.

Wonderful video beautiful lady. No one can complete with Elvis Presley he was a one off. And could simply sing anything any style truly One of a kind.

Elvis vocal range and especially the color of his voice was and still is unique.

I have been imbued with an enormous lack of discernible talent yet with an enormous capacity of appreciation for what I feel is the single greatest performer we all have been blessed to witness in the fullness of our time. Thank you mom n pop Presley for your gift! Bigislandtom.

your performance and your version very good...ELVIS and others

Good reaction to the greatest ever Elvis, and beautiful voice Nina you too 👍

Please do more Elvis....lots more.. you do an amazing job at technically analyzing the great elvis AND his band,who ALWAYS de.ivered for Elvis..

Elvis - The Best

Great reaction as always. I love how you break the song down...very informative. One of my all time favorite songs by Elvis is "It Hurts Me". Would love it if you could do a reaction to this heartfelt song. If you do please make sure it is the 1964 studio version. Cheers!

I love your voice coaching, orchestration, and overall emotional license we all experience being Elvis fans. Just an idea…….when you stop video to comment, back it up so we can see and hear what you are talking about. It gives the viewer the full story for which you are the best!

You’re hearing why Elvis is the king. Nobody better !

You are an absolutely delightful young lady. Thank you for your most thoughtful efforts.

Nina I love ❤ his voice, backup singers, orchestra etc etc. Elvis put it all together for a perfect sound and show ❤. His charisma, looks, personality and voice makes you speechless and emotional like you pointed out. OMG

Not sure how many fans knew this, but Elvis-for all intents & purposes, produced all of his recording sessions at RCA. Strangely, a production credit was rarely if ever listed on his singles or LPS, but it was Elvis who was the driving force-even as a 21 yr. old.

Elvis does a great rendition of the song Thank you for your review you were spot on

Loved your reaction Nina. Yes, what can we say... it's Elvis singing! I'm glued to the screen and my ears are absorbing this masterful performance! He had the most beautiful and powerful baritone voice ever! Thanks for the music Elvis. You will never be forgotten. 👍💟⚡🇿🇦 Ps... you have a beautiful voice Nina.👍

Wonderful Elvis ❤

I love that you love Elvis as much as I do And you are amazing you are captivating you’re a photogenic you are a real for real God bless you baby

You want another incredible "soundscape" you should do Let it be me. The arrangement, vocals--Elvis and backing, the runs between band and EP is just Outstanding.

I had the good fortune to see him live in 1973 and Nina you are right he held your attention like no other artist I have watched in concert.

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ Great Wishes from Germany. Elvis was here in his Military Time...

Elvis had a great gift to change the music to suit him do not worry you get emotion about his music I do that all the time when I listen to his music I have so many tears every time I listen to his music 😥

Nina I love so much watching you youngsters or young adults hearing this music for the first time cuz it reminds me of when I first heard it I'm in my '70s now and it's so reminiscent of how we all reacted back in the '60s and '70s towards Elvis and his dynamic skills and ability to sing and perform Can't thank you enough for this and really enjoyed your reaction and yet to watch a whole concert is truly a religious experience to use a term for Elvis never want any Grammys for rock and roll The only Grammys he won were for two gospel albums ironic isn't it He's called the king of rock and roll and everyone want a Grammy for rock and roll!

Love this version of the song

Great reaction video, Elvis is amazing. Plus, you are gorgeous😉
