The Greatest Of All Time, The Revolutionary, Humanitarian, Best Looking, The King Elvis ! Elvis is emotional in this video, MLK Tribute shorty after his assassination, Elvis memorized MLK'S If I Can Dream Speech !
I had lunch with George Klein (Elvis best friend)about 15 years ago. We got on to the subject of this performance. He told me that Elvis was very upset over the asassinations of MLK AND BOBBY KENNEDY, and wanted to end the show with a tribute song. Colonel Parker wanted a Christmas song. Elvis was persistent and ended the show with what I believe is the greatest live performance of all time. Whatever the reason, or what we believe, we can agree he was ahead of his time, and also, this is what I was told by his best friend. and Yes , he was so emotional after the performance, that he went backstage and cried.
It wasn't just for MLK and Kennedy. It was for the boys too in Vietnam. The red scarf was remembering the ones he heard who have died. It got him really upset.
Elvis il crevé tous les écran le plus photographie au monde et holywod aucun chanteur ou acteur arrive à sa classe trop trop classe le plus beau à voir à la télé Amérique c est elvis
Elvis should have received an Oscar for this live Performance for his vocals, interpretation, acting talent, heartfelt emotion, range of tones, perfect phrasing, perfect pitch, perfect everything.......and Face of the Century!!
The fact that you two guys are sitting here together, is an answer to some of the “dream”. More importantly, it was a passionate response to MLK & Kennedy’s assignations.
I can't express how unbelievably touched to see this great man being reintroduced and introduced to those who never knew of him. He revolutionized the culture and music as we know it today. The movie was the vehicle that started the re-emergence and I am so grateful for all that made it possible. It brought Elvis back to where he should have been all this time.
I cried during that. He’s pleading to God to please let his Dream come true right now. He never sang this again after that performance. He felt it was too important too do it in his concerts etc. His loving tribute to MLK & Bobby Kennedy was right on. May they all RIP. All gone way too young. It’s a song that Could be written for today & that was back in 1968. Amazing. Thanks so much for playing this.
Elvia was one of the greatest entertainers on earth. Natural raw talent, and helped everyone with unbelievable generosity, having known what it was like to be born dirt poor. No one should comment about him or his talents until they do their homework and see how many types and genres of music he has recorded and just how awesome most of his performances and his backup singers were. No single artist sold more recordings, and this was all done before 1977 (when he died) with no MTV, no CDs, no European or Japan tours, no auto-tune, and more people watched the Hawaii concert on their little black and white TVs than the amount of people that first watched when we first walked on the moon. Who else can say that? End of story.
I’m so happy Elvis is being discovered by people who only know the caricature of him. He is the greatest singer of the 20th century. As John Lennon said, “ Before Elvis, there was nothing.” If you weren’t alive in the ‘60s, it’s hard to realize how decisive and tumultuous the times were. Elvis was very patriotic and mourned the deaths of MLK and RFK. MLK was killed in Memphis, Elvis’s hometown and he always said MLK spoke the truth. This song was a tribute to both leaders and used words from MLK’s I Have a Dream speech. Elvis sang his heart out. He did not perform this song after because it was meant to be a special tribute.
Until someone mentioned it, I didn't realize that he was forming a peace sign with his body at the end. Remarkable, unparalleled singer and amazing human being. Thank you, Elvis, and rest in peace.
It's just Elvis showing his greatness and knowlege of the country at that point in time... he never wrote a song but dang... he could sing it and make everyone love
Elvis fan for over 50 years and this is my favorite. Sang it once live……mic drop. Red Scarf was for Service members lost in Vietnam. He’s still waiting for that to happen 🙏
Elvis was a awesome singer. How great thou art is an amazing song in 1977 he’s gives it everything he has.. Also in 1977 the media was asking people what they liked about Elvis. You should see their reactions. A couples house had caught on fire and burned to the ground and I ended up in the hospital the husband overnight, but they came to Ellis’s concert because they didn’t want to miss it.
Elvis sang many styles that rocker voice and then he gets that silky voice the rockabilly voice the bluesy n soulful voice and this timeless song is relevant today
In The Cold Kentucky Rain is a must listen to and You Saw Me Crying In The Chapel is another....These were back in my day, the late 40's 50's early 60's..
right on guys, its been one of my favorite Elvis songs , showing the king with one of his best performances, live , passionate, great vocals , feeling the pulse of the 12/8 on the outro ,swinging his arm back and forth and the cherry that the song had so much importance and meaning as he performed it as a tribute . Great lyrics so inspiring and positive " If I Can Dream " . Right on Elvis, you left the world with a gem of a performance , and good to see the recognition your receiving for it . Thankyou.
There would never be no one who comes close to Elvis Presley Period. 😊😊😊
A master piece then, a master piece now and a master piece in 100 years.

ELVIS❤️❤️❤️ he’ll make you FEEL it!
Top performers of all time Elvis Freddie Mercury and Pavarotti in my humble opinion.
Seriously , this is arguably the greatest live performance ever filmed.
Been my all time favorite for many years.❤️😂
There's nothing that can compare. It's the ONLY live performance that should be mentioned as the greatest live performance of the 20th century.
@@xciteful
It is the most impressive live performance of the 20th century, according to The Rolling Stone Magazine!
Could not agree more!! Elvis greatest single performance and possibly the greatest of all time in music.
Elvis should have received an Oscar for this live Performance for his vocals, interpretation, acting talent, heartfelt emotion, range of tones, perfect phrasing, perfect pitch, perfect everything.......and Face of the Century!!
He is the best!! Love, Love about Martin Luther King Jr. which makes it ever better!! My two hero’s!!!
I’m surprised this song isn’t more popular like imagine
Why we love and miss him so.
The fact that you two guys are sitting here together, is an answer to some of the “dream”. More importantly, it was a passionate response to MLK & Kennedy’s assignations.
I feel that for sure! We still have a long way to go as a society since we’ve been talking about this subject for generations, though. - kloquewerk
Listen to “ Don’t Cry Daddy” his daughter Lisa recorded with him in the background! Awesome!
Elvis, the King, 47 years later his name and the title are still undisputed
I now have to find this Elvis performance and play it every night before sleep. Amazing.
It's shocking how many people don't realize what an amazing performer Elvis was. there's a reason he's the King
He is the goat.

so glad you young generation discovering the King, not called that for nothing.

This is my all time favorite Elvis song. Actually he lived in a ghetto when he was young. Love you young men! Listen to him sing How great though art.
It's just Elvis showing his greatness and knowlege of the country at that point in time... he never wrote a song but dang... he could sing it and make everyone love
If you everyone to enjoy, I was the best music, best showmanship, best concert they have to watch them live for real for real
3:40 "Ah, that boy can saaang... I didn't know...." Dude that was a fucking epic reaction........
Straight forward honest reaction I love it, no stupid faces, no standing up and walking away from the chair, just an honest reaction............
Thanks for the love. We aren’t with those crazy theatrics just to get views! - kloquewerk
You can hear his Gospel and Blues influences so clearly.
❤❤❤❤
I'm a huge Elvis fan it makes me so happy to see young people discovering him. thank you so much.
Yeah me too Paula🕺
Absolutely my feelings as well.
My dad loved him and I became obsessed with everything about him from the age of 15… I’m 29 now and nothing has changed.
You can't deny the quality, that was powerful
Elvis recorded Exactly 769 songs ..... The more you know ..... The more he becomes .....
People don't realize that elvis was a very caring man and loved everyone and very generous
I second that emotion
absolutely! glorious human being
I love the Unity n love He expressed in this beautiful song😁👍😍❤️😍👍👍😁
I disagree ... He was very well known for his generosity and love of humanity ....
Elvis was the best ❤️ bless his sweet heart ❤️
ELVIS will always be the KING! What a voice, what a charisma! Thanx for your great reaction!

He sang in my opinion the greatest live performance ever, then went backstage and cried. This told to me from his best friend George Klein.
This performance raised the bar for every other solo artist
When he sang you knew he meant and felt it. Vicki
